Which spine in your BD collection is the most appealing to you?

Ok, with so many threads talking about bad/good looking covers I thought to do a thread that would be little different. IMO the covers seems lost (without the original art etc).

But to the subject of this thread - which BD spine(s) in your collection is/are the most appealing or attractive to you?

I like to have nice spines, because if I search for something it's easier to find something with a spine that stands out, or if I just look at the collection in my shelf I get happy to see a good film with a nice outstanding spine, etc.


My spine pick of my collection would be "Spaceballs" because I like those pictures in the spine - they stand out and I can exactly know which title it is, without even reading the text on the spine. And I love those nice portraits on the spines (not so much on the covers as photoshop mockups though).

Please post pictures if possible.

You can post your bad looking spines too - mine would be anyone with text only and of the the type of hard to read (wrong color/font or wrong background color in regards to the text).

2 of mine really stand out when looking at my shelf. Super 8 because slip cover is yellow, and Star Trek (2009) bc it is white with black writing. Actually they happen to be side by side since my collection is in alphabetical order. I love both slips.

Yeah, slips spines can be very attractive. From my collection I would pick "Taxi Driver" UK version with the bold gold text.

I think the two that stand out most of mine are: "Apollo 13", because the text is so big and embossed too. And "Pulp Fiction", since the upper third of it is just plain red your eyes get pulled to it before looking down to see the title in yellow.

Yep, the embossed texts rock.

Best - all of the Pixar films.

Worst - Pulp Fiction.
