    Need website to find good movies!

    Hi all --
    Thought I would post this under General. Here's the deal. I do not watch much T.V. and rarely (maybe once a year if that) go to the theatre. I have not had a Blockbuster membership in over two years b/c I rarely used it. BUT, I do love a great movie! (When I finally get in the mood to watch one) I am frustrated because we have Dish network with literally hundreds of channels and movie channels, HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, etc. The last two nights I could not find ONE movie that appealed to me. I am sure there were probably great ones on, but because I am so out of the "movie loop" that titles mean nothing to me. I read the reviews of some and only one or two sentences is given and does not grab me.

    Now I dont want to be made fun of because of the movies I DO like so I'm not going to list titles because that is not my question. My question is, does anyone know of a good website where you can type in the title of a movie you really like, and it will offer suggestions of similar movies you would enjoy? There is a music website that does this and I LOVE it. I have discovered many new music artists this way and find it hard to believe that after "googling" for such a website that I cannot find one.

    Any suggestions of a website that will do this? I'm technically challenged. :nutso:

    I think WIP or someone else just this morning posted about a site that offered free movies. I cannot find the thread but hope whoever it was will let you know!

      yup, I just joined Netflix, there is a 30-day free trial. You can join up and it asks you a series of questions, and pops out recommendations, plus descriptions of the movies it recommends! I love it!

        Oh and the one Lushy is talking about is, I think, what DG mentioned on the AF thread this morning, she has the link in her post, it is Hulu or Hula or something... it is free, but there are ads. I don't think it gives you recommendations, but I'm not sure...

              yes, Netflix is awesome....no late fees!! But just use it for the suggestions, its great. I actually set up an account and had movies sent to my Mom in another state. She loved it, it was like I was renting movies for her.

              I too have trouble picking movies. I walk up and down the isle wishing I knew what to choose. Too many horror movies out. But we did love Hancock, it was a great movie.
              :flower: I'm not as good as I'm gonna get, but I'm better than I used to be.

                I didnt know Netflix did that? Wow! I will go check them out immediately.

                Oh... HI Sweet Sammys!

                As I said, I'm not much of a movie person but I'm on an AF stretch and find that a really good movie is a great distraction. Most of the ones on TV make me want to drink. :H

                Thanks WIP --- I'm heading to Netflix this very moment.
