Title.
The film and its follow-up set of miniseries:
- This is England (2006) (The film)
- This is England '86 (2010)
- This is England '88 (2011)
- This is England '90 (2015)
From the same writer/director (Shane Meadows), I also recommend The Virtues (2019) miniseries.
Both projects are semiautobiographical. They can be a tough watch in certain episodes, so check doesthedogdie.com for possible triggers.
One of Shane Meadows’ earlier films is often recommended, so it’s probably one you’ve already seen, but Dead Man’s Shoes (2004) is worth a look if it’s new to you.
Bet you haven’t seen The Way of the Gun.
Go in raw like I did. It’s a unique movie.
Primer, if you like hard sci-fi. It’s an indie movie about time travel, and it’s got perhaps the most fleshed out time travel mechanic out of all movies I’ve seen. Last I checked, the director posted the full movie on YouTube for free
Letterkenny! The humour takes a few episodes for you to understand, but it’s absurd sort of in the Seinfeld way but way more subtle.
What We Do In The Shadows is HILARIOUS.
For some thing new, I loved Common Side Effects.
Firefly - warning, only one season, 1 movie, and a short stack of comics.
Young Justice - The side kicks form their own team. Starts off strong but by season four it’s kind of meh.
Fubar - cia spy show starring Arnold S.
Invincible - Violent cartoon, good writing.
Severance - It’s a weird mind fuck.
X-Men 97 - Far better than the original series.
Brooklyn Nine Nine if you want a comedy cop show.
Spaceballs
Farscape.
Speed Racer
Good Place
I saw Speed Racer after someone recommended it here on Lemmy. They said it was the best movie ever.
I thought it freaking sucked ass. Took me like five attempts to finish it. I got bored and watched something else 4 times before I could finish it.
It was so weird. The plot was just much too basic. Old story, told a thousand times, predictable and boring af. Special effects were (intentionally) poor and too zoomed in and shaky.
They made everything in focus, nothing was out of focus. I think this was a choice of the Wachowskis’, but it made for some weird-looking things sometimes.
All the racing was too busy, with camera switches that were much too frequent. Gave me a headache. And I’m used to watching quick switching content. There was just too much color and nothing on focus and too quick. It was a bold choice but it backfired in my opinion.
My two cents, I’m ready for the down votes. 😅
The Man Who Knew Too Little.
Great Bill Murray movie that I never see anyone talk about.
So funny. It had a terrible trailer probably why it bombed.

The Testuo trilogy, that shit is wild.

I know people who use subtext, and they’re all cowards.
Twelve Angry Men. I like the original black and white version, haven’t watched the remake.
