........ Well, let's see, I believe I'll watch The Jerk! Nice organized collection, Perry!

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@davidthomasfz66 great choice! And thank you!!

[@stingray7849]

That’s a fantastic VHS collection! Love the setup!

I enjoy watching organizing videos. I get some really good ideas that way. Love the Smurf cup! The Last Unicorn! I didn't even think anyone else had that movie. I'd be standing there a while trying to decide which one to watch. It would be more like a three movie night. To be able to walk up and see all the movies neatly and in alphabetical order would be amazing! I long for that kind of organization! Limited space and small hands prevent me from doing that. So, I enjoy watching other people make it happen.

@@lisae7976 hey thanks! Last Unicorn is a great one for sure. I appreciate you joining my organizing adventure haha

[@lisae7976]

​@@TheCassettePhaseI look forward to seeing how it comes along. I'm here for it!

Talk about a flashback to the 80's to 1997 when VHS was king of physical media. And I remember buying VHS movies from 1988 until around September 1997 when I started buying dvds. But I will say this about VHS era it was so cool walking into either a video store rental witch had over thousands different titles to pick from. Or a video store wear they sold VHS movies & there was so aisles to walk down & thousands of VHS titles to pick from to buy. And people now have no clue how cool it was to go to either a video rental store or a video store to get your favorite vhs movies

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@tomboling2309 I’m with you on all of that! Something about the box art, the selection, the vibe of the rental store, all of it!

[@tomboling2309]

@@TheCassettePhase yes I agree with you 100% precent on that. Bc like you said the vibe you got by going into a video rental store or a video store to get your favorite movies either to rent or buy

Great video! I love seeing people reorganizing their VHS collections, because it shows how it's growing throughout the year without having to wait for an updated collection tour at the end of the year, or the beginning of the year, or however people decide to do it. The Fellowship of the Ring came out in December 2001, and was released on VHS and DVD in August 2002, with the extended cut coming out on VHS and DVD in November 2002. So VHS hadn't started being phased out quite yet. In fact, I think most video rental stores had just started renting DVDs alongside the VHS releases.

@@tgif1345 thanks! I’m glad I’m not the only one who enjoys this kind of stuff. Thanks for the background info on LOTR. That does sound about right…and it’s over 20 years ago at this point, wild.

[@tgif1345]

@@TheCassettePhase No problem. And yeah, it's wild that the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy is over 20 years old at this point. What's even crazier is that movies that we more closely associate with DVD, also came out on VHS. Like the Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Batman Begins.

@@tgif1345 so true!

[@dynamiketiger]

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@dynamiketiger thanks so much for saying that man, means a lot!

@@TheCassettePhase Yessir! 👊😎

[@elibourgard8969]

Cool video, Perry! I personally love these kinds of videos. I just picked up 15 new vhs tapes for a dime each today :) Stand by Me is one of my all-time favorite movies. I'm hoping the book/movie review is Christine. That's my favorite King book/movie combo.

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@elibourgard8969 thanks for letting me know, I’m with ya on that! And 15 for a dime each? Awesome score. It is Christine! Coming soon.

[@SantoLowrie]

Sidekicks! Filmed in beautiful Fort Worth Texas!

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@SantoLowrie that’s right! I haven’t seen that one in forever and forgot that it was filmed there.

[@BlasphemousMusic]

ive got some vhs now over the last year or so of finding sealed ones, maybe 10 or so sealed and 6 or 7 just old cool ones but I have no space for them with my games taking up most of the space.I love your collection but for me personally i like to watch the older movies in the highest def I can, just a personal preference. And my organizing ocd will not allow me to put jurassic park the lost world not with the others. Same with the indiana jones movies, they HAVE to be together for me lol

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@BlasphemousMusic that’s awesome! And I can completely understand wanting to watch in the highest definition possible.

[@BlasphemousMusic]

@@TheCassettePhase i also get the mostaglia of the warm and fuzzy tones from a vcr. I dont have a crt anymore to play them

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@BlasphemousMusic yeah CRT TVs used to be so easy to find, and for cheap! Now they’re a little bit more rare and expensive due to retro gaming and stuff like that.

[@josephpaoletti3576]

How did you come across the wraith? Not sure if i have ever seen that one picking. Great movie.

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@josephpaoletti3576 that was a lucky find at a local thrift store. It’s the only time I’ve ever found anything cool at that place too, just got lucky on that one haha

[@richardmika2136]

[@maximwinner5326]

[@TheCassettePhase]

@@maximwinner5326 yeah I talked about that a little, some tapes will get moved to the storage tubs at the bottom of the closet. No biggie! Thanks for watching!
