I have a proposal,
Many of us do anyways want at least 720p films and series. I know a source where the films are divded into 100MB parts. So each film is about 12 or 8 GB big, you will have 80 or 100 parts to download. Something that takes some time for 1 person to download but if some people would join we could coordinate the downloads and get the films with HD quality faster.
Once each one of us has a certain portion of a film, we meet somewhere exchange our downloaded parts, and everyone is happy. :)

Your feedback is more than welcome.
There are many sources out there bro, with Real HD films of at least 7GB a size.
And as eager we are to actually make our movies collection built by movies of that quality and size, nevertheless, we will have a huge lack of disk space in the near future...
And not to mention most of the sources that provide divided movie parts, usually upload the files on to profit storage sites as rapidshare,hotfile etc... which means the download speed is Limited ! also the number of downloads.
But as for now, lets just stick with the 2-3GB max HD movies, and the most conveniant way of downloading them are trough torrents.

Anyway, why dont you,for now, tell us your collection that you have. Maybe provide a screenshot like the above posts.
I will update My collection,after the huge lost movies from it, after i finish my current downloads.
i like badbyes idea, but problem is that we live too far from each other
@avolio, my smallest movie download is the highest file size available on torrent :P i am downloading 222GB lotr trilogy as of now...
Man 222GB for 3 movies?
Where do you plan on storing them? You wont be able to have a Big variable collection if you keep downloading at such sizes.
LoL , and perhaps i will ask them from you after you finish downloading, just to rewatch themn and then deleting them.
i will store it in my hdd of course,i currently have a 2TB one thats around 800GB free, i will get 3TB drive soon
ill probably get a blueray burner one day and burn them on blueray
perhaps i should charge you for it :P
@shant: a movie @ 1080p with 2 languages is with me at most 16GB!!! You are probably downloading french,german, english,italian etc. languages down.
Anything below 4GB of filesize is for me not an HD. For example I have: The Avengers, Prometeus X-Men First Class, and the last part of Pirates of the Caribian. And when I watched them for the first time on a FullHD Screen, I never want to watch anything below 720p.

@AVOlio:
I use sources like sites as rapidshare,hotfile etc. because I can get you all links to a excellent quality and the more we are the faster we could do this. The thing is that we have to enter captchas everytime we need to download a part and/or restart the router in order to get a new IP. And this is what I do by myself around 130 times in order to get a 1080p movie. This would distributed to us. The more we are the better.
@badbyte: why you don't use torrents? you'll find more content, better quality and it's much more faster.
Faster? How much downstream do you have 800kB/s? Or even 1MB/s?
well, it's still better than downloading tens of compressed files @ 100KB/s. I have hd space and iptorrents invites if anybody is interested.
transfering uncompressed files take longer... i think :/
@badbyte
We still need you to show us your collection. :)
@Astex, you aswell if you are interested in sharing them with us in the future perhaps.
languages as in the spoken language audio or subtitles ?
id never watch anything below 8-10GB, 4 gb may be high res, but the picture kills me!
for the future i always mean audio.
I never watch anything below 720p :-) , and I'm workin on the list so stay tuned for more :-)

looking for the hobbit :uncompressed:
The movies you share "offline" all have Dolby Digital 5.1 or DTS? Or They have loss-less audio like Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD MA (LPCM sometimes)? Because i noticed that some torrent files are in small sizes compared to Blu-ray movies, even some movies i buy on Blu-ray actually only have DD or DTS only. Note that not all audio is necessarily loss-less.
@kareem, i really don't check the audio source due to the fact that i don't have a surround system installed at home, also no point in good audio in a compressed video either
@xterm, my parent folder is now holding 1.41TB of movies!

in other news:recent experience from downloaded movies. if you really want a true great digital movie experience, i recommend an htpc.
media players don't seem to support every type of codecs, even if they did cover most of them, they seem to effect the picture quality or wont read external subtitles or lag huge movies (30GB+) or 3D playback, good thing about this one tho is that it supports FF or skipping scenes

i tried a usb enabled smart tv, gives great picture quality, does not support all file types, can't FF or skip scenes, nor read subtitles (file sharing to samsung smart tv's from a pc sucks btw)

Blueray players with usb support still suffers from fast forwarding,subtitles,3D or 48fps, and has some kind of hardware security to pirated movies, also a failure

a good solution is an hdmi enabled htpc, you can use it as a file server at the same time, small, power efficient (50w or less?) and cheap, the size of a blueray player, maybe a bit bigger, it can run every codec, superb picture quality, can read external subtitles, can FF and skip scenes, 3D support, 48fps support (if available) and you can install your movie hard drive directly in it and share to your main pc for copying new movies, with a blueray rom it would be a dream media player, casual gaming works too! might cost around 300$ but well worth it (a high end blueray player costs 300$ anyways)
All my surround sound movies are DD 5.1, with a bitrate of 384-448 kbps...
And they sound excellent on my surround system.. also, they are movies of 2-3GB sizes.
Theres this encoder on tpb who does the best jobs in 1920x800 resolution movies with DD5.1 @ 384-448Kbps audio bitrate..
I always get the new blockbusters from him.
