Organizing movies

This is a short post, I know, and the last one was too, so you can just pretend like they're one post.

I organized the movies today, like mom asked me. Wow, tell you what, its times likes these where I hate rom-coms and action comedies.
I was like, ok I'll make a couple of catagories,

Animated
Comedy
Romance
Musical and dance
adventure
action
trilogy, chronicles
Time Period

But then I was like, what about the rom-coms, or Superman, which is a superhero movie, but its not in a series, so it goes with the adventure movies, and not with superman and xmen, like it should.

And then there were movies like Oceans 11 and 12 which I kept switching from action to comedy because I just didn't know, and same with Mr. and Mrs. Smith, except that was even harder because thats a romance too. I ended up putting it in romance, because after all thats pretty much what the movie was about.

I was going to make a fantasy section, but there were too many movies that were already in like four categories.

Then there was princess bride and October Sky, like....what? I don't know. I ended up putting October sky in 'adventure' and Princess Bride in 'comedy' good?

I hope it stays that way. I'm sure it will, with just the parents and the married units here. They don't watch anything except pilates videos, so I put those on the side so they wouldn't disturb everything else when people move them.

I put all the period movies on the side too, and they took up the whole side. there are a lot of them. It looks very good. I should go national with my skills.

I watched this movie called Cow Belles the other day. Its a disney channel movie. The main girl was good but her sister wasn't. They played sisters and they were actually sisters. The guy that the main girl go together with was cool. Turns out hes from vampire diaries. Ha. He started on Disney channel and then went to that? ha.

  1. I could give you so much advice about this because I have opinions about categories. You'd think I would alphabetize or categorize my books and movies but instead the set up is more like this: ones i like a lot, ones I sort of like, and ones that I'm ashamed of. That last one I keep stashed only to break out in the appropriate girl party moment. Or something. I mean, how many times can a person watch The Family Stone and still keep their dignity. I'd say less than 50.
    Anyway, I don't watch 24, can you still respect me?

  2. Well, I would do that, and I do do that in my room, but there are all these other people in the house telling me stuff like, "Do we really need to keep Italian Job up there?" "We're never going to watch Italian Job again, lets get rid of it," And, at both times I respond, "Ok, I'll take away A Room With a View and Wives and Daughters too," and then they shut up. But yeah, it kind of had to be organized in a family friendly way. Or something.
    Wait, you don't watch 24, so I REALLY respect you. I don't respect people who watch shows like that just because they've already watched all the other shows they can think of.
