I have had alot of 70mm films in past years in collections that I have sold off. I'm more into DVD right now than home film collecting even though that sounds strange for me. Its more of a convenienvce thing actually.
Some of the films I had were ___________________________________, and several others over the years. Several of them went vinegar on me. The stuff takes up alot of room and quite frankly is not worth the hassle involved for home use. I still have a nice Norelco DP-70 though that I run stuff on at home occasionally.....but no big collection anymore.

Your answer: yes there are people who own 70mm film prints. There are also people who own 35mm prints, and 16mm prints and 8mm prints, just like there are people who own VHS, DVD, LaserDisc and Beta copies of movies.

However, specific titles of privately owned films do not belong on the internet and will not be posted here.
