Don't mean to be nosy (but I am anyway) ... Wondered how many reels you guys have and what's your favourites. What would you happily watch again often?

I don't have much yet, and not seen many of the reels I got in my package. But from my past, I would say I saw Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back quite a lot. Also Alien, Battlestar Galactica, Mission Galactica, Jaws and Twins of Evil. Still struggling to remember all the reels I had, but think the only 2 reelers I had (35 min approx) was Jaws, Battlestar and Mission Galactica, Airport 80.

I would say either the digest 400' or three parter of Dirty Dozen is the most repeatable title in my collection.

Apart from digest short movies like 3 Stooges, Little Rascals/Our gang, Laurel & Hardy and Abbot & Costello are my favorite and never leave my collection due to repeatable screening.

Hello Vidar, and welcome.The films that get the most repetition
in my collection would be the "Dollar" westerns on 16mm,any
of the Ray Harryhausen films,especially "Jason" & "One Million
Years B.C.", a clutch of Euro horrors with Barbara Steele and
not forgetting Bugs & Foghorn Leghorn cartoons coupled with
the "Reflections" reels issued by Derann some years ago.

I love Ray Harryhausen films, Star Wars,Disney,and Superman Cartoons from the 1940's . I have all the classic films and blockbusters. So all I can say is have fun collecting and welcome to the world of super 8!
