Default Blu-Ray Movie Counting Question

I'm counting all the movies I own in my collection in HD (movies, not blu-Rays) and I had a question for you guys, and I was curious how you guys count yours.

So I don't count multiple versions of movies (So "Blade Runner" and "The Exorcist" would count as only one).

Bonus films count, such as Killer's Kiss on The Killing, and Godzilla, King of Monsters on the Gojira disc.

However, how would you guys count certain documentaries on blu-Ray editions? Even ones that weren't made specifically for home video, like Hearts of Darkness, Charles Laughton Directs Night of the Hunter, and Ingmar Bergman's Making of Fanny and Alexander?

Also, would you count a film if it was the main feature? Like specifically on the Trip to the Moon blu-Ray? Would you count that or no?

I go by whatever my BD.com database count states as my total. Makes my life soooooo much easier AND saves me A LOT of unnecessary time wasted trying to count them all.

I count the number of cases if I have, usually. So pretty much if anyone asks, I go by the "# of sku's" in My Collection as how many I have rather than how many films. After all, if you bought a two-pack of 2 movies on 1 disc, I don't think it counts as "I got two blu-rays today!" You got one new blu-ray and two movies. Kind of the same if you pay $50 for the Superman 8-pack or the same amount for just Disney Snow White, etc. You added one new item today.

Yeah you got a point. I guess I was just a little unsure on how BD.com even counted it, but yeah I might as well just stick to what they say
