    Ok so I know that there are some people out there like me who like to organize their movies by genre, but then sometimes you get those movies and your not exactley sure where to put them. For example I have a superhero/grahpic novel, action/crime, sci-fi, horror, animated movies, comedies, drama genres. So then do movies like a history of violence go under graphic novel or crime/action and then 30 days of night is that graphic novel or horror?

    I put anything that's based on a comic, or had a comic series later based on it in the graphic novel section, which is then arranged itself first by publisher, then by tv or movie.

    I don't separate by genre; I simply line up all my DVDs alphabetically. Then, when I get into film series, I bundle them in multi-disc cases, and keep them on another shelf. So far, I have all 3 "Jurassic Park" movies in one case, plus all the "Terminator" entries so far, and the first two of "X-Men", "Pirates", and "Bourne". Once I get the third of those, they'll recieve the same treatment.

    The only separation I do with my DVDs is Movies in one section, TV shows in another, and then Music in it's own section.

    And then arranged alphabetically.

    I actually do like all of those, I'm not even going to use 'completist' as an excuse because I only buy stuff I like.

    Except Superman IV. There really is no excusing that.

    Depends...I have comic movies on a nice shelf. All other movies are scattered. Some by franchise, some by director, some by genre.

    No real organization.
