Think about it this way. You decide to revive the movie rental store and open your own. How are you going to display your movies? What genres do you sort them into? Do superhero movies get their own section, or are they just action movies? What are the overall main movie genres?

The more you control, the more that requires control, so I'd keep it simple, Action/Adventure, Horror, Sci-fi, Comedy, Drama, New Releases. You don't want employees spending forever putting away movies in some elaborate genre schema. Now the hard question ... Where do you put the Alien movies? Action? Sci-fi? Horror?

I'd probably split it up between action, animation, classics, comedy, crime, drama, fantasy, horror, science fiction, and western.

I don't know how sustainable it would be, but I'd open a small one serving a niche market.

I would probably section it like this:
Action/Adventure (superhero movies would go here too)
Animation
Comedy
Crime/Thriller
Drama/Biography
Documentary
Family & Kids (non-animation)
Fantasy
Horror
Sci-Fi
War/Historical
Western
Could have combined Drama/Bio and War/Histo together since they overlap each other a lot, but wanted to keep each section at a fair amount each.

Instead of doing by genre, I would do under six categories:
Children's/Family
Classics (1910s to 1970)
Contemporary (1970 to present)
Documentary
Foreign-Language
New Releases (any film released within the past year)

New Release Decade Foreign Animated Documentary/Special/Sports
Anything goes in New Releases. Once it's no longer New Release, it gets put into the others accordingly.

This is a classic alien invasion story, only it's happening on an Earthbound vessel. Martians stalking humans hiding in root cellars is not different than a xenomorph in the air vents of a space ship.

In many ways, has sci-fi overlapped and replaced some of the old western tropes like the cowboy vs Indian picture is substituted with spaceman vs alien.

“dramedy” became a very popular genre, at least judging by the festival programming of the last few yers. so I would add that - comedy - drama - dramedy - horror - thriller - action/ adventure - scifi - fantasy - western - neo noir / cyber punk / postapo - foreign - animation - anime - kids/family - romance - war - documentary and each genre would have a special “new release” and “classics” within  god, now i want to own a video rental store  maybe would add “true crime” too. perhaps. |
