If the two have network ports, you can put both on a network with a network switch and transfer. You can also connect the two with a cross cable and transfer that way. If you do not have a router assigning DHCP, give both units static LAN IP addresses to do this.
If you have a USB external drive, use this. The hand held devices may be big enough to do the job also.
If you need more info on setting up a network for this, ask again as a separate question.

You need to give more information on what your system and your old laptop can do.
Here are a few guesses:
Via memory key.
Share the drive on your system so the laptop can see it on a network.
A lap-link cable.
Laptop to laptop IR link.
Pull the drive and put it in a USB external case.
There are lots of ways it could be done, the question is which is useful for your situation.

Go buy a new optical drive. It will cost you about as much as a good flashdrive. The cheap flashdrive will be really small and you will have to transfer movie smaller batches of files.
