I have the weirdest problem... when I am looking at the selections for these UHD deals... "oh, I wanna watch that again, oh and that one too!", but then later when they are on my shelf at home... "meh, there isn't anything here I want to watch." But... I keep buying them anyway...
Bad collecting habit. A lot of us here have that problem. That said, I'd rather buy these physical copies than hoard a bunch of digital copies... and then realize in the future that movie I wanted to watch is floating out in the void somewhere behind a username/password I've completely forgotten and/or the license expired and I no longer "own" it.

I Am Legend; The Accountant; American Made; Casino; The Town; 2 Guns; Sully...Several movies that Ive watched over and over, but hesitating on buying...
It's always the same titles at Gruv (I know, they have a limited inventory)
You cant look at GRUV as being on the same level as Box Stores or even Amz.
GRUV is owned by parent company : Universal Pictures and (joint venture with Warner Bros. Home Entertainment)
This means you will only ever see Universal Movies and Warner Bros. Movies and TV shows.
That may be the reason why you think they have limited selections. It's because they do.
Edit : also note anything with digital code that Warner Bro has included will most likely be expired. They went out of their way to expire all their codes that were included with titles that sat on shelves over 12 months since it was released. So basically don't count on any of the codes working unless they came out This time last year or less.

I buy movies on BluRay or 4K that I will watch over and over and really enjoy. If I don't think I'll watch the movie at least once a year I don't buy it now.
There are exceptions such as new transfers of awesome old movies that are otherwise impossible to steam or buy otherwise.
FWIW, Gruv is easy to buy from and I've never had any issues with the discs.
Here's how I solve that problem.
I create a spread sheet lol. I list the movies based on holidays.
For example: October = horror movies. I'll watch 1-2 each weekend until November.
Veterans/Memorial Day weekend = war movies (December 7th weekend - Midway, Fury, or WWII related)
St. Partricks day weekend = The Departed
4th of July = ID4, Top Gun, Die Hard 4, Edge of Tomorrow, Jaws, etc.
Christmas = Die Hard 1/2 etc.
I even have Super Hero, Monsters, or 3D weekend.
It's about enjoying the movies with snacks popcorn, nachos, etc. I try to not to watch the same movie I already saw the previous year.
Yes, but do you have a master spreadsheet to keep track of all your spreadsheets?
Okay, I never watched the Accountant before might get that
Its a good flick and with Accountant 2 coming out soon, seems like a good pic. Also, similar reason I got I am Legend as I think theres a second movie of that coming soon, too.

Good choice, Accountant 2 is about to be released in April.
Most of us have been waiting since 2016 for this to come out.
Consider yourself lucky ... lol
