I have a TON! of LDs, unfortunately none of them are Dawn...so sorry. If you can think of any others you might be interested in I might be able to sort things out. I still have a few discs that have yet to be opened. Let me know...I will email you a list.

This is the only one up for auction at this time, at a decent price. It would help if you would clarify what laserdisc you are looking for. There are four domestic (USA) lasers, three Japanese and two German.

I stumble across laserdiscs from time to time when I'm digging through the record bins at antique shops. I always get excited thinking I've found an awesome movie soundtrack on vinyl, but it turns out to be a laserdisc and I have no use for them considering I don't have a player.

The best reason I like laserdisc are because of the cool artwork you dont get that on vhs or dvd.

HD-DVD has become the new LD. I almost own the entire catalog, I think I am only short a handful of domestic titles and about 20 imports.

For those of you into HD-DVD and looking for them on the cheap check out inetvideo.com, and if you live in Canada, Wal-Mart Canada has 2 for $10 HD-DVD sale.

THink about it, better quality in picture and sound and you get 2 for less than the cost of a DVD. Most titles are WB.

300 Batman Begins Unforgiven etc etc

I thought the HD catalog was close to 10,000? Am I mistaken about this number or do you have your entire house filled with movies?

Ive got the CLV Republic LV 25831 Dawn of the Dead laserdisc which was recalled on the day of release due to copyright reasons in my collection. Does anyone know if this is rare?

I do still collect them. In Los Angeles, Amoeba music still carries quite a large amount and from time to time, I check it out. However, the reason I collected was due to the fact that many films were still not on DVD yet - now mostly they are.

But I watch the ones I have all the time.

No, only about 500 Domestic discs, and maybe another 300+ imports, if that.

Over ont he AVSforums there is a list of every HD-DVD in release, I think there is 484 titles total for the US market. There are some porn films on HD-DVD, but I don't buy what I cen get for free on the net. :D

I have the CAV Director's Cut of Dawn from Elite. Will wind up in the trash soon probably. I've already thrown away so many LDs.
