Default Rather Perplexing Logistical Blu-ray Inquiry...



Alright, how would you organize alphabetically the movies 300, 3:10 to Yuma, and 30 Days of Night on your rack? Damn 3s are messin with me here.

DVDspot does it so:
-30 Days of Night
-300
-3:10 to Yuma
(letter alphabetic...thir, three hund, three ten)

Excel does it so:
-300
-3:10 to Yuma
-30 Days of Night
(?!)

Currently, I'm doing it as such:
-3:10 to Yuma
-30 Days of Night
-300
(numeric increments 3, 30, 300)


Which is one is right?

I would keep it the way you have it now.

Just my opinion though.

as for other movies like 2001, I put them before the '3' movies because it starts with a 2. But that's a whol other mess!!!

Wouldn't that get confusing having Spiderman Two come after Spiderman Three?

No, you only order them like that when the first word of the title is a number like 300(Three Hundred). Something like sequels are filed normally in the order they were released(ala Superman, Superman 2, Superman 3, Superman 4).

Verily, . So take my comments with that grain of salt in mind.

Just kinda odd to be to have an exception like that.

And, how would you place Se7en relative to Seven and 7 (okie, that's a strech with the last one, really surprised there weren't more movies that start with seven at imdb .

But that's my personal take, I perfer numeric order if it's a number, then alpha if it's alpha. Now, if it there was a Sucky Movie, then a Sucky Movie Two, and then a Sucky Movie 3, I'd be in for a headache .

Thankfully, the Naked Guns despite having unusual numbers were still releaesd in numeric order .
