      I just watched all the “Final Destination” movies and the 4th one is called “The Final Destination”. Then the went on to make a 5th, and a 6th is in production.

          We just re-watched Spaceballs last night and I still laughed and laughed. There’s a scene I don’t remember seeing before where Dark Helmet barks an order and a Spaceball replies, “Jawohl, mein Helmet!” And Rick Moranis gives him this look in such a perfectly-timed way that I lost it. Even with the helmet down it worked.

              69 is (our) 69 because the whole thing is the same when you rotate it 180°

              As is XIX

                  Yes it is! One person one way, one person the other. From the 180 perspective, the same.

                  The participants are thus mutually inverted like the numerals 6 and 9 in the number 69

                  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/69_(sex_position)

                  Unless you’re meaning it specifically has to be 2 digits, and therefore XIX doesn’t qualify? If so that’s fair (it was just the closest analogue I could think of. Maybe II would indeed be better).

                69 isn’t “the funny” number because it’s an ambigram. It’s the “funny number” because it’s the sex position number.

      This is true.

      If it’s in a list with other films with years first, you wouldn’t be about to visually scan by letter, though. Two “Saw” films could be separated by hundreds of others in between.

      Even better, you can do it by editing the “sort title” so even in the library they show up in the order you prefer. So in this case I’d change them to be “Saw 01” through “Saw 10” and I won’t have to mess with a different view for those circumstances. I do need to go back through and edit a handful more of my movies because I’ve slacked off lately.

          Yeah it’s not the end-all-be-all solution for sure, but it helps for a large majority of movie series. I also use Plex Meta Manager to automatically create collections nightly for series, actors, genres, and even a handful of playlists.

          Edit: and to add onto your example of Bond, yeah I just make that a playlist because it’d be way too confusing for me and most people who watching from my server.

          Another use for ‘sort title’ is for making collections for things like actors, directors, decades, genres, etc and then sticking them at the top of the library by appending special characters or numbers to the beginning of the sort title, like '#001 Steven Spielberg Collection’s

          Star Wars and Indiana Jones also have this issue with inconsistent titles, which make the default sorting annoying.

        I always liked to use year instead of number. That way it sorts the same and if there end up being more than 9 I don’t have to go back and rename it to 09.

        Now I use Jellyfin with the auto collection plugin. It does a great job of grouping everything correctly.

          I just always do it out of habit when I number movies because of the rare possibility of a series going into double digits. Obviously I wouldn’t need to ever worry about it with LOTR or anything that is definitely over, but regardless it’s not painful to go back and edit.

          Edit: also I’ve considered switching to Jellyfin myself, but I’ve had a Plex Lifetime membership since line 2014 and as annoying as they sometimes are about emailing me, I do like the polish it has.
