| Posted by: Backstabba at April 26, 2008, 10:03 am | | Topic: How do you have your DVDs organized? Forum: JoBlo | I have three shelves. The first one on the left is basically..
(Video Games)(Two Disc with slipcover)
(Two Disc with slipcover) (Steelbook)
(Steelbook)(DVD Boxes without slipcover)(Criterions)
(T.V Shows)(Franchise collections)
(Large DVD Boxes for single movies)(Directors collections) Then on the 2nd one
(Snapper Cases)(Two Discs with slipcovers continued)
(Again, continued)(One Disc with slipcover)
(Two Discs without slipcovers)(One disc without slipcovers)
Repeat Then the third shelf is the remains of one disc without slipcovers. All categories are in alphabetical order. | | Static Link |

Espicially Clerks 1 and 2 and Jay and Bob strikeback which are the most related to each other. Do you have Mean Streets, Goodfellas and Casino together? | | Static Link |

| Posted by: pridesticks06 at April 25, 2008, 2:10 am | | Topic: How do you have your DVDs organized? Forum: JoBlo | | Mine are alphabetical, however I do not have enough shelf space, so there are some random ones sorted out in other places. Kinda confusing. When I get a nice shelf unit though they'll be alphabetical, and if (when) I get more steelbooks, they might get their own spotlight too - I only have four right now. | | Static Link |

| Posted by: SamSanchez at April 24, 2008, 10:59 am | | Topic: How do you have your DVDs organized? Forum: JoBlo | | I currently have series with spine numbers separated in order of the spine number (i.e. Criterion Collection, Masters of Cinema, Dragon Dynasty and Fox Film Noir). Then I have the rest separated alphabetically within genres. | | Static Link |

Forum: JoBlo | | My problem is that Im never satisfied with anyway I do my organizing -- I put directors together, but then I realize I should have Best Pictures together or classic movies together or my steelbooks together -- so I've kept my Scorsese, Tarantino, LOTR and other series together and the others are sorta random | | Static Link |
| Posted by: God of War at April 24, 2008, 7:15 am | | Topic: How do you have your DVDs organized? Forum: JoBlo | | I have most of my box sets together. More than 3/4 of my dvds are in a random placing. And the rest are organised. I have way too many movies. 1600 + box sets. Roughly 2000 dvds. So I couldn't really be stuffed putting them in any order. Although, at times, I can't find shit. I wonder why? | | Static Link |

| Posted by: echo_bravo at April 23, 2008, 10:40 pm | | Topic: How do you have your DVDs organized? Forum: JoBlo | | By category? Alphabetical? Or if you are like me you just have them randomly put on shelves. Since I am so bored I might put them all in alphhabetical order. Today I had the hardest time finding a certain DVD cause they were all randomly put together. | | Static Link |
