The text really needs some better rendering technique. It is very hard to read. Have you considered Slug https://github.com/EricLengyel/Slug ?

Nice!
Would be really nice to have links to director's picks. Eg I clicked on Che, saw that it was in Denis Villeneuve's list, and wanted to check out his other picks.

Wow! Definitely not what I was expecting. If you turn around and look at the door there's a menu with some filters.

Nice to be reminded of the collection, and another way to present it.
I want to view the boxes, especially after filtering, grouped near eye level and seeing the faces not just the spines.
Nice to see VR (potential for XR), cool use!

This is great, but unusable for people like me that need to have the y axis inverted. It would be amazing if you could add that functionality.

Decades of muscle memory is hard to overcome?

If I were the author I wouldn't bother implementing the option for that reason. I was curious whether it was due to a genuine accessibility reason, like using a device other than a mouse that makes it really hard to adjust.

Yeah I'm sure those 4 lines of code are a big ask.

I’m going to use the heck out of this!
Just one suggestion: Could you add another sort order for the list view based on the number of “closet picks”? It would be cool to see which films are most popular among Criterion Closet guests.

Really nice. You could use polycss.com and render the library and form all together!

really nice! Criterion should have this as a view on their website!
I did find the over-sized Godzilla Showa Era box on the shelf.

Are those movies public domain?

The Criterion Collection is a boutique film distributor. They are famous for their Criterion Closet videos on youtube. This project was to recreate the experience 'virtually'.

Its not even close to Boutique. Napolean Dynamite was rejected. That breaks the coccyx.

There are public domain movies in the collection, notably Night of the Living Dead and Carnival of Souls.

The link to Criterion streaming doesn't work for "Brazil" (#51) - it shows a list of movies that likely have the word in their synopsis such as "Kiss of the Spider Woman" but not the actual film (which famously doesn't reference the country at all)

More specifically:
Eclipse Series films i.e. https://www.criterion.com/films/2959-a-colt-is-my-passport, https://www.criterion.com/films/27516-come-on-children, https://www.criterion.com/films/12521-sanshiro-sugata - these stand out the most since several actual Criterion Closet picks are from the Eclipse Series, and most (all?) of them lack spine numbers because their cases are slimline and lack spines altogether
Films in similar box sets like The Ranown Westerns that don't have standalone releases, i.e. https://www.criterion.com/films/32211-comanche-station
