For those who alphabetize their collection: what letters lack representation?
It's a slow night, and I noticed that I have no movies that begin with X or Z. This could easily be remedied by purchasing something like the X-Men films (which I may, once a definitive trilogy set is released) and Zoolander (which I won't, since I hated it).
I thought I might open it up to everyone, though. Which films should I fill the X and Z voids with? And what voids do you have in your own collections?

I think I'm missing K and Q
edit- I have King Kong. Just missing Q (My DVDs are not in alpha order, so it's harder for me to see which ones I'm missing)

I didn't much care for Zero Effect, either, and have no interest in Zathura. I also once owned The X-Files movie and unloaded it...forgot about that.
I suggest The Quiet American for Q, maybe Il Mare or The Insider for I. The only Y I own is Young Sherlock Holmes, so there's room for improvement there.

I think Q was the last one I got a movie for. X and Z before that. I have a few for each letter now.
Q - the first Q movie I got was Quadrophenia
X - Xanadu of course
It's awful but I love it.
Z - "Z" - excellent movie and excellent soundtrack too

I recently alphabetized my 1000+ collection. For a while I thought I was going to be Q-less, but ended up with two, The Quiet Man and Quest for Camelot.
X is well represented by X-Files and the X-Men.
I forget what titles I had besides the fantastic Zero Effect, but I had three Zs if I recall.

This may be an odd question. Is there a seperator card/tab with the the letter printed for DVDs - in the same size as the DVD case - sturdy? Like our school/college folders. If there are such things, where can I purchase them? Thanks.

I have something for every letter. Letters represented by 20 titles or less are:
G - 19 titles
I - 17 titles
Q - 4 titles
U - 15 titles
V - 13 titles
X - 11 titles
Y - 2 titles
Z - 1 title
And for the hell of it, letters represented by 100 or more titles:
B - 100 titles
M - 102 titles (could technically be 113, as I'm counting the M*A*S*H Martinis & Medicine collection as only 1 title)
R - 152 titles
S - 138 titles
G - 19 titles
I - 17 titles
Q - 4 titles
U - 15 titles
V - 13 titles
X - 11 titles
Y - 2 titles
Z - 1 title
