Organizing, the never ending battle!!! Nothing like moving 35 movies down different parts of the shelf to get one movie in its right spot alphabetically!
Been there, and it sucks! Granted, everything might already be in order, but when you have a shelf with 5 levels of content, every time you add something, everything towards the end of each level has to move...
Always adding stuff to my Blu ray section, I know the fun of moving stuff to accommodate my need to keep it alphabetized, don't care if the DVDs are in order cause they'll be out the door if I get it on Blu ray 😅
I organise mine by genre. That way if I just feel like watching an action movie, I can just see all of them. Same with horror or comedy. That way I don't have to think about a specific movie when browsing.
Binders are cool. You can customize them. I have a majority of my Blu rays in one with a sticker of my dog on the outside. The only reason I have a binder however is because it takes up less space. If you don’t have this problem then you don’t need to worry
I have to keep my entire collection in binders. 19K movies and counting. So I use the 540 disc binders. Weigh about 20 pounds when full. I have roughly 30 of them and still short. I have also had to label them with what is in them. Having 30 means it can take forever to find what I need.
I put all the boxes in home depot cardboard boxes in the garage. The blu ray goes in loose sleeves. Alphabetical. Then i use a spreadsheet to track and select what i want to / have already watched recently.
Yes! Binders rule! My 5,000 records take up a lot of my room. So my 6,000 CD’s are in binders. The few hard to find DVD’s are in one small binder. The Blu-ray’s are in one big binder. The rest of my shelves are devoted to 4K and boutique labels.
Love your organization. Sadly mines is not that organized compared to yours. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and limited to space. I got 2 towers for my 4Ks. 2 towers for my horror Blu-ray movies. 2 towers for my action Blu-ray’s. 2 towers for my comedy Blu-rays. 2 towers for my drama and action and anime.
In the past I’d put my horror films with horror I’d do all vampire movies next to vampire Zombies next to zombies Also would do actors so like all my Adam Sandler films next to each other Idk what to do now Just got my entire collection out of storage it’s been 5 years
I don’t have a huge collection but my organization is weird. First, I separate 4K UHDs from Blu-ray. Then I separate 4Ks into Dolby Vision and HDR10. Then I’ll separate those by genre (sci-fi, action, Marvel, DC, box sets, etc.) Then I’ll separate those by series or time period the movie takes place in. So I have Saving Private Ryan in front of Jaws (1944 before 1975). No alphabetical for me. It’s weird my mind went that way but it works for me.
It has tv shows awesome man well I have got to say man.......... you are the man and let me say the things You've even got even got the VHS tapes and DVDS 📀 and Blu rays
I organise by genre and with some filmmaker. Sure there are some movies kind of in nomadland if you know what I’m saying but it does guarantee a nice movie night experience in which you can just go to the genre you feel like.
Just wanna say I approve of the Toy Story Trilogy set with no Toy Story 4 in sight 😂 Yeah, I've contemplated organising my collection, mostly VHS, by label, but at that, a lot more questions arise. Alphabetical or chronological? Production or distribution? What if there's overlap? That just guarantees headaches for me, so I just do alphabetical for the main shelves, and then I try and organise the best I can for the two small shelves reserved for duplicates and miscellaneous stuff... It's exhausting but very satisfying when it's all put together.
That is great you've collection of movies and the DreamWorks movies and you could do the showing of the movie and it's great that you've got all of these and you could do the showing
My collection is not as huge as yours 😂😂😉 I got about 250-300 movies & I like to organize by either actors like keeping all tom cruise movies together or by studio like keeping all warner bros together, all the fox 20th century together etc. Idk makes it look super clean on shelves or sometimes even by director if i have enough like all the stanley kubrick films together & Chris Nolan
Where on Amazon UK can I get these spinning shelfs? Please, I've got around 600 blu rays, Inc limited edition and box sets. Any help would be appreciated 😊
I appreciate your collection and how you organize it. It certainly looks great. But after I owned around 3,000 movies, it became way too much work keeping my movies in order and finding shelf space for them. I currently have about 9,000 disks and I store them in canisters, without the case or box they came in. Each canister holds 80 disks and I have 127 canisters. They take up considerably less shelf space than cases/boxes do. I put the latest disk purchased in the next available canister in the next available slot. There is no need to organize them in any way. I scan my movies by barcode into Movie Collector database. I retrieve my movie info using Movie Collector on my PC and CLZ Movies on my phone. All the data related to a movie (title, release year, stars, director, IMDb Rating, genre, genre, etc.) is obtained from the barcode and can be retrieved from the database. I export the data to an Excel spreadsheet that tracks the location of each disk. The spreadsheet lists my movie by Index vale (the order in which I entered the movie) or alphabetically. When I locate a movie, the spreadsheet tells me where it is located. So, if the movie is in canister 10, slot 6, Excel tells me 10-6. Yes, I throw away the cases but I'm a movie collector, not a case or art collector. And I can get the case info and more from Google. If I had the space, time and energy to do it your way. I would.
I personally have over movie discs. Because of space, i gave up on cases a LONG time ago. All are alpha order, but i have gone to binders to keep peace with the wife.
I do alphabetical but by series, meaning the MCU starts with Iron Man but the rest of the MCU is right there. If all the James Bond films weren't in a box set, it'd start with Dr. No I don't separate series cause of alphabetical
Actually I see you have Sully (Tom Hanks ) I bought and watched that movie recently and I like it but I don't care much about it, I thought it was a good movie for a documentary instead, I really don't think Eastwood should've made a full 2 hours movie.
Jesus Christ - I understand the love for physical media, but this is overkill - but I guess that TH-cam money helps out. In future I'd suggest MakeMKV and back all that up digitally on drives and have a 1:1 backup copy of all the disc contents you have and sell the collection if you ever need the space or the funds back. Possibly a scanner too, to scan the covers if you want. Never know when you need to sell all that. The channel and content is great, but at a point, you may realise you don't need all that and could fit it all across a few 20TB drives taking up only one shelf. Great for TH-cam but storing all that must be a nightmare. Great stuff though.
I know this woman who's into horror movies and is a big fan. She even has a Haddonfield Memorial Hospital hoodie! Unfortunately she's young and working part-time so her collection is small but I share mine with her. But she'll get there.😜
@@hectormontalvo5565 I'm there. My wife is a massive horror junkie. The gorier or creepier, the better, although she'll never say no to some low budget schlock 🤣
I had a picture of my collection on Reddit but Noone was commenting and they stopped showing my picture in the group. I thought I deleted my account, now I'm banned from commenting but can still read others post 😅
@@GoveaWorksnot true, I've had a few exes here and there that treated me like a nerd or called me a nerd, just because I like what I like. I will not change.
Sooo. Disc rot is a thing. If you think collecting plastic discs is worth putting your money to then realize in 50 years all of this will be useless. Your grandkids won't even be able to enjoy them. Too many of my friends have framed their lives around what ppl do on youtube and collecting plastic is going to be a future regret for everyone who participates. But hey, whatever makes you happy. Food for thought: For some people it's meth.
@@Yowzoe Put it in a salt mine. Besides that there really isn't any way to preserve them. We are having to constantly move data to a new sources to store it on. Even film has a shelf life. But people don't want to talk about this but it is a very prevalent problem we are facing.
Organizing, the never ending battle!!! Nothing like moving 35 movies down different parts of the shelf to get one movie in its right spot alphabetically!
This is exactly what I do every week, its gets quite tedious but I enjoy the satisfaction of adding another movie, it gives you a warm feeling

A spinning shelf is what I need
Damn! That looks like my living room. I’m a movie freak,myself
I organise mine by genre. That way if I just feel like watching an action movie, I can just see all of them. Same with horror or comedy. That way I don't have to think about a specific movie when browsing.
I'm the same, makes looking for a movie to watch and connecting with your collection a much better experience.

😮 ❤ what a beautiful collection and pretty cool furniture to order your movies and present it.
A spinning shelf is definitely what i need.
I want a movie binder tour!
I love your organization ❤
You lost me at binders lol
I use them too :D
Yes! Disappointing!😮

@@DangerousDevilOfficial if you haven’t already make a video of your collection I want to see that
I organize by studio, it is the most aesthetically pleasing
I put all the boxes in home depot cardboard boxes in the garage. The blu ray goes in loose sleeves. Alphabetical. Then i use a spreadsheet to track and select what i want to / have already watched recently.
My stoner heart broke when he said "movies i dont care about" and showed pineapple express.
Sully for me 😢
Could also be that he has the 4Ks for that movies.
Not even a stoner and I think it’s funny as hell 😂
Loving this channel just subscribed!!!
Yes! Binders rule! My 5,000 records take up a lot of my room. So my 6,000 CD’s are in binders. The few hard to find DVD’s are in one small binder. The Blu-ray’s are in one big binder. The rest of my shelves are devoted to 4K and boutique labels.
Looks clean & dust free. I have to use a glass shelf for mine as I get too much dust on the cases.
Maybe try an air filter in that room
So what do You do when you get a new movie starting with the letter ‘A’? Do you then push the rest of the blu rays back?
Love your organization.
Sadly mines is not that organized compared to yours. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and limited to space.
I got 2 towers for my 4Ks. 2 towers for my horror Blu-ray movies. 2 towers for my action Blu-ray’s. 2 towers for my comedy Blu-rays. 2 towers for my drama and action and anime.
Do you have every Criterion number?
Organizing by spine number might look more appealing on the shelf but it could get pretty annoying trying to find the one you're looking for
packaging (Media Book, Steelbook...), Genre, matching colours :P
Awesome movie collection man
In the past I’d put my horror films with horror
I’d do all vampire movies next to vampire
Zombies next to zombies
Also would do actors so like all my Adam Sandler films next to each other
Idk what to do now
Just got my entire collection out of storage it’s been 5 years
Satasfying

Yo I feel like the best way is and this is lz how I do it organize by year dats the best way I got mad DVDs never stream this is a way of life
Very cool!
Love it I need to do this
I have the same spinning shelf. Where can I get those bookshelves from? I'm looking for something like that. And nice collection.
It has tv shows awesome man well I have got to say man.......... you are the man and let me say the things You've even got even got the VHS tapes and DVDS 📀 and Blu rays
How dare you disrespect Pineapple Express like that!
nice collection
Ah the Good old binders.
Love your collection, I thought I had a lot . 😂
I organise by genre and with some filmmaker. Sure there are some movies kind of in nomadland if you know what I’m saying but it does guarantee a nice movie night experience in which you can just go to the genre you feel like.

Toy Story 4 UHD right next to the trilogy tho haha
After seeing your collection tour vid... how do you organise... erm, differently 😄
That is great you've collection of movies and the DreamWorks movies and you could do the showing of the movie and it's great that you've got all of these and you could do the showing

I only have 90-100 movies
That is what I do mostly. Arnold movies together, Tarantino movies together, marvel together. All horror together etc
By director if I have enough, chronological of course, then genre for most of the rest, with a few by imprint.
How dare you have Pineapple Express in the “don’t care” pile
are those spin shelves from Amazon ? how many films do they hold ?
Where on Amazon UK can I get these spinning shelfs? Please, I've got around 600 blu rays, Inc limited edition and box sets. Any help would be appreciated 😊
This is the one I have: amzn.to/3NOmfrZ
Do you stream at all or do you watch all your tv on blu rays and dvds?
Where did you get those spinning shelves?
The Spirit is a movie I want in 4K.
Were did you buy spinner?
Can’t find such towers in Germany. I’d love to have such towers, when moving to a new flat in the next 1-2 years.
i have those in one hardrive that fits less than one of your box

amazon
How tight do you pack them together?
Does anyone know what spinning shelves he has, or any good media storage cabinets?
I do alphabetical but by series, meaning the MCU starts with Iron Man but the rest of the MCU is right there. If all the James Bond films weren't in a box set, it'd start with Dr. No I don't separate series cause of alphabetical

Wheres that person that will ask "why when you can just stream it?" 😅 I know your out there, every movie collection post has one 😅
You don't care about Pineapple Express lol? Or do you just have the 4K so you don't care about that blu ray
What to watch what to watch
You should collect video games.

What are the binders/sleeves you use for the excess? I want to get a sleeve that has the slip and dick storage but don't know what's good

Mine ARE alphabetical, with 4ks. Blu rays. Dvds. Steelbooks get their own shelves, as do the MCU, DC, X MEN.
Do you have any Nickelodeon/Disney DVDs/Blu-rays?
Why don’t you ever see girls with such collections of movies. Us guys are just simply built different.
