I have considered that, but I dont even know what is on these films.... I dont want to pay for films that I cant be bothered changing..... I would like to watch them first....

Besides, all that those places do is play the film and then film it off'f the projector screen....

Hehe, naah, there is a lot of film, and they charge per roll.... I dont want to pay 20 rolls if only 10 of them are any good....

try hiring a projector from Durham AV

I think I will keep searching for a second hand projector.... I dont wanna pay a hundred bucks for a weeks hire of a machine that everyone is throwing out....

try your local library.

Sounds like a job for Ebay!

Hey!! The best porno ever was on 8mm, the modern VHS and DVD movies are total crap.
