Not impossible, but ISlandBoy does raise some points.
I have burned several movies to DVD using reduced bit rate and higher compression, but doesn't guarantee they will be standard compliant or play in your stand-alone player. However, I only recommend short films or clips since video quality will sacrificed.

For a DVD to be playable on a set top DVD player, the video format must be MPEG-2 conforming to the DVD authoring specification. It's highly likely the 700MB movies on your hard drive are in some other format, like DivX AVI files, WMV, RMVB, or possibly h.264 MP4 files. For these files to playback on standard set top DVD players, the files are first transcoded by your DVD burning software to conform to DVD standards. This transcoding process almost always results in a larger file.
Programs like Sonic MyDVD, WINAVI converter, VSO ConvertX to DVD etc. will allow you to transcode a number of video files to DVD. If your source are DVDS, you can try re-authoring with
DVD Shrink.
