Blu-ray (or other physical media) tattoo ideas?

Thinking of getting a new tattoo, something on my arm, running the length of it, with the spine of 2 or 3 of my favorite movies. Either blu-ray or even VHS. But I'm looking for inspiration.

Anyone here want to show off their tattoos that celebrate physical media? Specifically tattoos that celebrate or feature blu-rays, DVDs, or VHS tapes?

Horrorlex | a free database of academic literature for horror nerds.

Just found this thanks to The Verge and it really is exactly what I've been looking for. I have been mainlining academic horror literature for the past few years and apparently I've barely scratched the surface. For what it's worth, this is what I've read so far:

"Men, Women, and Chainsaws" by Carol J. Clover

"Horror Film and Otherness" by Adam Lowenstein

“Danse Macabre" by Stephen King

"Nightmare Fuel" by Nina Nesseth

"American Scary" by Jeremy Dauber

"Untold Horror" by Dave Alexandar

"The Teenage Slasher Movie Book" by J. A. Kerswell

"The Art of Horror Movies" edited by Stephen Jones

"Screaming for Pleasure: How Horror Makes You Happy and Health" by S. A. Bradle

"Horror Cinema" by Taschen

“The 1990s Teen Horror Cycle: Final Girls and a New Hollywood Formula” by Alexandra West

“Horror Unmasked: A History of Terror from Nosferatu to Nope” by Brad Weismann

“Warped and Faded: Weird Wednesday and the Birth of the American Genre Film Archive” by Lars Nilsen

"House of Psychotic Women: An Autobiographical Topography of Female Neurosis in Horror and Exploitation Films " by Kier-La Janisse

Currently reading "It Came from the Closet: Queer Reflections on Horror" edited by Joe Vallese. Really enjoying this one.

Anyway, HorrorLex looks awesome and I can't wait to dig in. Haven't seen it mentioned on this subreddit before (and searches yield no mention of it.)
