Need Recommendations for TV Shows or Movies Please
I've watched the following TV series on Netflix Instant:
-United States of Tara
-Dexter
-Breaking Bad
and I have all the episodes of The Walking Dead so I don't need Netflix for that, but wanted to mention in order to give an idea of the kind of stuff I like.
Movies I've recently watched:
-I love you Phillip Morris
-Last of the Mohicans
-Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
and about nine hundred other movies.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance!

(18,998 posts)I don't know what any of those movies are about except Last of the Mohican's....but I do love Netflix because there are all kinds of movies to watch...and I have watched a bunch of them.
But if you like period pieces you might try The Molly Maguires....which is a true story about the coal miners of the 1800s and star Sean Connery.
Or for mind blowers The Butterfly Effect.
Or science one called What The @#$% Do We Know....about how the brain works
Hope this helps some.

(6,996 posts)If you liked Eternal Sunshine, check out Gondry's
The Science Of Sleep (it's even quirkier). And if
you really want quirky watch "MirrorMask".

The Reflecting Skin (hard to find)
Duets (love that one, lots of fun with a bit of dark thrown in)
Magnolia (not so much fun with lots of dark but kidnaps you)
The big Lebowski (what can I say)
Sinbad or Jason and the Argonauts movies _ I like the old ones
Eon Fluxx
Memento
Mortal Combat - the first movie
Fried Green Tomatoes

Law and Order only in British villages. And lighter with more humor.

Be sure to get the UK version of Life on Mars. Much prefer it to the US version.
