An "Owned" Status for Movies

I am speaking of the Status that shows in the details of a Music or DVD or Game item, and you can modify in the Edit My Info window of an Item.

Currently, Movies and TV Shows do not have a Status, while Music items have a Status which can be Listened / Listening / Unlistened, DVD items have a Status which can be Watched / Watching / Unwatched, Games items have a Status which can be Played / Playing / Played.

I think we could use a Status for Movies and TV Shows too.
In my view, it might be Owned / Ordered / Not Owned.

By "owning" a movie I personally mean I have it either on some physical media, be it a DVD, Blu-Ray, VHS, etc., or on a file, or I have digital rights to access and watch it whenever I want.
Anyway, each Listal user will be free to use the new Status as they wish.

What do you think?

If a movie Status is implemented, I would also love some way to bulk edit it, just like we can do with the "Watched"/"Want to watch" toggle. :)

I would like to add that, yes, I can make an "Owned" custom list, but this kind of information (I mean, whether a movie is in a custom list or is not) will not show in the movie's page, while it would definitely show if we had it as "Owned"/"Not owned" status.
