Have you ever thought about selling off the DVDs to the shows you grew up on (such as GI Joe) because you realized the show is not really good once you take off the nostalgia goggles? I'm just curious, because I'm packing up my DVDs to get ready to move, and I just keep wondering if I really want to keep my DVDs of GI Joe, Thundercats, He-Man, Transformers, etc, because when I watch them as cartoons today, they suck. They do not hold up like Batman TAS, Gargoyles, and Animaniacs do, but when I put on the nostalgia goggles, they rock (kind of).

I realized that the Joe et. al. cartoons sucked enough that I didn't even buy the DVDs. So yeah, if you're not gonna watch something...sell it. There's really absolutely no point to owning a DVD you know you can't really enjoy watching/aren't going to watch.

If I did watch anything, it would probably be some randomized episodes. However, I watched the entire series (and the first set to Series 2) back in Jan, so I probably wouldn't watch anything Joe related (sans Resolute) at least for another 5 years.

no, because you would only get a few pennies for them.
DVD's, after all, are a dead technology...

I like to put the Joe DVDs in when I messing around with my Joe collection. No it's not the masterpiece that Batman TAS was but it gets me into a "G.I. Joe mood".

That is so true. The value of DVD's are falling fast. What amazes me is just how much the shift to digital libraries has happened.

Look at it this way though. You own 1,134 DVDs/BDs and are moving. If you get rid of 100 of them, that is a little less you have to move and will have clogging up your new apartment.

I was about to say get a discgear, but you would need a few of them with 1100+ dvds.
