dumbchemist wrote: My first 12" LD was a promo disc that came with my Pioneer player. It was titled Laseroptics II (put out by Pioneer) and was basically showcasing the advantages of the laserdisc format. I haven't watch it for over 15 years so I cannot remember even a fraction of its content. My favorite part of the LaserOptics II disc... My first LD was Logan's Run: Special Edition (1976) [ML106353].

Dunno about that but anything with always so sweet Laura Gemser is good watch for me, in addition to her appearance the most memorable scenes were the comedic bits where this gorgeous brunette gets constantly distracted from her cooking attempts by getting involved into bit different kind of steamy action

Dunno about that but anything with always so sweet Laura Gemser is good watch for me, in addition to her appearance the most memorable scenes were the comedic bits where this gorgeous brunette gets constantly distracted from her cooking attempts by getting involved into bit different kind of steamy action It was a joke based on the U.K. TV Show AbFab. "The man with thunderballs" is another "Bond" film the show's drug-addicted, chain smoking, alcoholic, massive Heroin overdose surviving, ex-sex change and nymphomaniac character, Patsy Stone, starred in, along with "Boobarella". In reality, the actress, Joanna Lumley, is a real Bond Girl (On Her Majesty's Secret Service) as well as a Hammer Girl and New Avenger. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patsy_Stone

My first came with the first player I bought. I got it from a pawnbroker, a Pioneer CLD-S270, which came with Rock, The (1996) [8887 AS] and Men in Black (1997) [82656]. I had been keen on LD for a while, but could never afford it, or didn't have access, or any number of reasons. I just got lucky one day and traded for it. As soon as I put The Rock in I was hooked, the sound quality blew me away. I put Men In Black in and thought, 'what have I just wasted my money on'. But after a bit of investigation, which led me to LDDb.com and its amazing amount of helpful resources, I was ready to start amassing a collection.

For me it was "Dream a Little Dream". Dream A Little Dream (1988) [ID6631VE]I still have it for sentimental reasons even though it has some rot. The DVD is getting me through until I can find another Laserdisc in good shape. To be young again...

condorsat wrote: Own that one too Purchased from Half Price Book store for $3.98. I also bought Laser Optics II from Half Price Books, though I'm pretty sure I only paid $.50 for it. My first LD was Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991) (Uncut) [LV32301-WS]I was really impressed with the video quality of this disc and I would say that it rivals the DVD on a standard Def set. Plus, the audio is fantastic. Unfortunately, it also set a high standard for the rest of my collection because, as we all know, not all Laserdiscs are created (or I should probably say mastered) equally.

my first Laserdisc was Tim Burton's Batman which has mostly survived the abuse my brother meted out to my collection but side 4 is chipped so when my CLD-D925 arrives (which is the second machine of that model) i'll be able to see what lasting damage it's done to disc as in it's entirety. That film was the first time i saw NTSC video & frankly i wasn't impressed with the line structure but at the time that was the only version available plus films on NTSC Laserdiscs generally were uncut unlike some of the PAL versions
