- DirectorRobert StrombergStarsAngelina JolieElle FanningSharlto CopleyA vengeful fairy is driven to curse an infant princess, only to discover that the child could be the one person who can restore peace to their troubled land.Because this is the *beep* best.
- CreatorElizabeth MeriwetherStarsZooey DeschanelJake JohnsonMax GreenfieldAfter a bad break-up, Jess, an offbeat young woman, moves into an apartment loft with three single men. Although they find her behavior very unusual, the men support her - most of the time.This show is just really great and you need to watch it.
- CreatorMichele AbbottIlene ChaikenKathy GreenbergStarsJennifer BealsLeisha HaileyLaurel HollomanFollows the lives and loves of a small, close-knit group of lesbian women living in Los Angeles as well as the friends and family members that either support or loathe them.A good insight in writing lesbian relationships with lovely storylines, and the hottest lesbian in tv history ever. Generally a 7/10 show, though.
- CreatorRussell T. DaviesStarsAidan GillenCraig KellyCharlie HunnamA groundbreaking gay adult drama which chronicles the lives of Stuart and Vince, as well as 15-year-old Nathan, who is in love with Stuart.This is very, very '90's, but it is really well-written and scandalous and there's so much Doctor Who and.. guh, I am in love with this. There is, however, also an American remake that might be relevant to your interests. (Not really to mine though, I love this.) It's also a really good insight into a relatively small gay outgoing dating community, which is useful to you for story purposes.
- CreatorJenji KohanStarsTaylor SchillingDanielle BrooksTaryn ManningConvicted of a decade-old crime of transporting drug money, ordinarily law-abiding Piper Chapman is sentenced to 18 months behind bars and quickly discovers the realities of life-changing prison time.BEST SHOW ON TV (or netflix, whatever) RIGHT NOW
- CreatorKim CoghillAndrew De AngelisJeff DetskyStarsTatiana MaslanyDylan BruceJordan GavarisA streetwise hustler is pulled into a compelling conspiracy after witnessing the suicide of a girl who looks just like her.One of the most amazing detectives/dramas/woman-centered shows right now. It's just amazing and you don't wanna miss it. <3
- DirectorPark Chan-wookStarsMia WasikowskaNicole KidmanMatthew GoodeAfter India's father dies, her Uncle Charlie, who she never knew existed, comes to live with her and her unstable mother. She comes to suspect this mysterious, charming man has ulterior motives and becomes increasingly infatuated with him.I love this movie. I need you to watch this movie so I know what I can and cannot recommend to you. It's directed in a very Asian/Korean thriller horror style, which I love, and ot deals with a girl's sexual awakening and stuff. It's a favourite of mine for all of these reasons and more. Please tell me what you think so I know whether you're into this stuff or not. (Also, fun fact: The actor who plays the uncle (Matthew Goode) also plays Bubastis' owner in Watchmen. Another reason I love this movie.)
- DirectorTom FordStarsColin FirthJulianne MooreMatthew GoodeAn English professor, one year after the sudden death of his boyfriend, is unable to cope with his typical days in 1960s Los Angeles.So good. So sad. So goooooooooood. CINEMATOGRAPHY. (Also Matthew Goode again. More importantly, Julianne Moore.)
- DirectorNicholas TomnayStarsDavid Hyde PierceClayne CrawfordNathaniel ParkerAn on-the-run convict looking for temporary cover finds it at the house of a very colorful character.You like Hannibal. You like people with mental problems. I love this movie because it's a *beep* psychological thriller with a crazy version of Niles Crane. So yes this needs to go on the list.
- DirectorMichel GondryStarsJim CarreyKate WinsletTom WilkinsonWhen their relationship turns sour, a couple undergoes a medical procedure to have each other erased from their memories forever.<3
- DirectorJonathan DemmeStarsJodie FosterAnthony HopkinsScott GlennA young F.B.I. cadet must receive the help of an incarcerated and manipulative cannibal killer to help catch another serial killer, a madman who skins his victims.HOW HAVE YOU NOT WATCHED THIS YET IT IS A CLASSIC IT IS AMAZING GUUUUH
- DirectorBrett RatnerStarsAnthony HopkinsEdward NortonRalph FiennesA retired FBI agent with psychological gifts is assigned to help track down "The Tooth Fairy", a mysterious serial killer. Aiding him is imprisoned forensic psychiatrist Dr. Hannibal "The Cannibal" Lecter.Prequel to Silence of the Lambs. A lot of fun because of Will Graham and the general exploration of the (book) story, but not a masterpiece. However, Hannibal the show definitely references this a lot, and it's a very rewarding watch. (Sidenote: The opening murder of Hannibal, mr. and mrs. Marlow, is this movie's antagonist's first murder.)
- CreatorDominic MitchellStarsLuke NewberryHarriet CainsMarie CritchleyFour years after the Rising, the government starts to rehabilitate the Undead for reentry into society, including teenager Kieren Walker, who returns to his small Lancashire village to face a hostile reception, as well as his own demons.I haven't even started watching this myself but from what I see on tumblr it looks amazing

- CreatorAlan BallStarsPeter KrauseMichael C. HallFrances ConroyA chronicle of the lives of a dysfunctional family who run an independent funeral home in Los Angeles.This is my favourite tv show ever. If I ever say it's something else, you may slap me in the face. It's 5 seasons and a heavy show, so no pressure to watch it right now, but I felt like I had to include it. Because, you know, it's my favourite show ever.
- DirectorShûsuke KanekoStarsTatsuya FujiwaraKen'ichi MatsuyamaAsaka SetoA battle between the world's two greatest minds begins when Light Yagami finds the Death Note, a notebook with the power to kill, and decides to rid the world of criminals.You watched this, right?
- DirectorTom TykwerStarsFranka PotenteMoritz BleibtreuHerbert KnaupAfter a botched money delivery, Lola has 20 minutes to come up with 100,000 Deutschmarks.Film course referenced this a lot. It's a good short movie, and this is the movie that inspired me to get a very bad red dye job.
- DirectorLone ScherfigStarsCarey MulliganPeter SarsgaardAlfred MolinaA coming-of-age story about a teenage girl in 1960s suburban London, and how her life changes with the arrival of a playboy nearly twice her age.Good movie.
