I've only ever had They Beyond on that Vipco DVD so I'm probably more entitled than anyone to buy it on blu ray |
Although I don't collect every available version of the films that I'm interested in across multiple labels, mainly because I only want the best and most reasonably priced version, I don't see why other people collecting multiple versions should piss you off. There are plenty of things in life worth being pissed off about, particularly in terms of the political realm and society at large, but concentrating your ire on collectors seems just about as pointless to me as you can get.
Although I personally scratch my head at why anyone would want 23 versions of a single film from multiple labels, if some people want to spend their money on that kind of thing that is up to them. I'm not being asked to pay for the stuff, and neither are you for that matter, so I really can't see your problem. So what if some people are fanboys, they are hardly hurting other people after all?
