Discovering new things through recommendations can be lovely -- we all have books, poems, songs, films, to programmes, hobbies, food etc that we love -- so make a recommendation to the poster above something you think they may like to discover, something that you like/enjoy.
I'm hoping to get some new ideas.  |

I just watched the remake of Petes Dragon..
the only thing it had in common with the original was it had a green dragon in it..
but if you want a good blub then this is your film  |

"I though this was more of a "name something you like and have other people recommend similar to you" thread, which is an amazing idea."
That works too! |

"I'm going to recommend Tucker and Dale vs Evil! It's perfect satire and if you enjoy horror you'll recognise several of the elements that are mocked."
Yes i have that on dvd. Watched it for Halloween a couple of years back. Good film.
I would recommend The Bureau, a French spy show.
Also Bosch. |

"2 recent ,very good movies 'love witch', and 'free fire',both great fun,for very different reasons"
I want to see both of these
Love Ben Wheatley but 'Free fire' looks totally different to his other stuff. Interested to see what he does with a more mainstream type of film. |

Recommending difficult without knowing what you're into.
TV - well anything off Netflix or Amazon Prime. Black Sails, Vikings, Hand of God, Sneaky Pete, Man in the High Castle, Bloodline, any of the Marvel Netflix shows, all if Star Trek on Netflix. If you have Sky then Game of Thrones or Westworld
Films - Lord if the Rings, any of the Marvel films, the Die Hard's, too many to list
Books - too many to list |

There and to the left a bit |
TV - Currently has to be Line Of Duty - best crime drama ever!!
Film - Hacksaw Ridge - best film I've seen in a very long time
Book - Anything by Peter James fantastic writer of crime fiction and more
Song - The Liberty Of Norton Folgate by Madness - 9 mins 42 secs that show the band are so much more than just a good time party band from the 80s, a positive trip through a part of the East End of London unknown to many |

Is the book good. I'd imagine that it's quite a difficult book to read as it would be so emotional x |
