Sorting Issue

[VideoGameCritic]

A few months ago I made an enhancement to the site so games with titles like "The Grinch" would fall under G alphabetically, but still display its name on the index page as "The Grinch".

This looked better but I just discovered a problem. The table has its own sorting functionality, and that would put the game under "T" since it doesn't know how to ignore the "The". This could be fixed but would require more work than I'm willing to invest.

So I've reverted things so the games are sorted correctly, but show up as "Grinch, The". It's not so bad.

But does the Uncanny X-Men go under U or X?

Worked at Blockbuster for many years. If The, A or And was the first word it would be the the main word and then a comma. For example the The Godfather would be listed as Godfather, The. If you were to put THE or A at the front you would be going through a hundred titles to find Which THE movie you would be looking for. Definitely the format Godfather, The. Nobody had any problem finding anything.

Now I feel nostalgic.

So you guys don't mind "Grinch, The" ?

If so that would save me some effort. I was just thinking about how I could make the other way work in the web page.

I mind it, but it's a a minor annoyance compared to the major investment that fixing it would be. Sounds like it's more trouble than it's worth to address.
