Does anyone remember the scene in Barry Levinson's "DINER" where Daniel Stern yells at his wife (Ellen Barkin) about the way she had is records all out of order!? "You have James Brown mixed in with the R&B section!" *L*

I keep mine in order of the studios... this way know what to expect from the movie (based on the studio).

10 years or so ago with my laserdiscs, I use to do a nice looking catalogue with the title, director, ratio, sound format, plus the extras included. The movies were grouped in to the different chapters (drama, comedy). Yes chapters... a couple pages per section... one for Drama, one for Comedy. It took a couple pages just to properly and visually display the info for each chapter/section.

Plus at the back I had different pages on diffrerent topics for all the common questions asked about home theatre... "What is widescreen", "What is surround sound"... its very visual and easy to understand, as well as teaching them what the hub-bub of all this home theatre stuff is... plus the movie section was easy to use and helpful for those people who did know what to look. :-) ...Other Home theatre nuts like us!!

But now i have too many movies (on lasersdsics and dvds) that it got too big... and time consuming to update and print out with the tabs for easy seeing at a glance. it was like manufacturing a book/magazine each time I updated it.

I think people were more impressed with the design of the catalogue then what movies I had... but once I played the movie!! :-) WOW!!!
