Have you tried Chat GPT?

there’s no lemmy alternative yet but /r/movie suggestions had been real great for me so far. I’ve watched so many good films that I wouldn’t had if I didn’t saw it there.

Particularly Coherence, The Man from Earth, Brick, etc.

I don’t. I download everything and watch trailers. With glances of critic/audience scores.

I just grab whatever gets a scene release on my preferred piracy site, provided that it does not involve superheroes or something else that has saturated screens for the past 15 years. And when I find myself on an airplane I look through what I have on my portable USB drive and pick something, mostly at random, because I like knowing as little as possible about a movie before watching it, to the point where I consider trailers to be spoilers.

imdb or rottentomatoes sorted by user, not critic, ratings. Also ignore all ratings past ~2015, as they are gamed.

I’ve never really used it for movies and it can recommend more than just movies but I’ve used TasteDive before, if you haven’t already tried that one.

So many real shitty movies this year with high grades. Mixed couples everywhere too, in every movie, to the degree that it’s ridiculous. Now we are inclusive and everyone is suddenly gay in the movies. :)

I can recommend the latest south park though, they are calling out Disney for what they are doing.

Pretty much sums it up with “put a chick in it and make it gay”. :) I laughed at least because that’s what I see in modern movies.

Watching trailers and seeing if the film might appeal to me.

Still up for better alternatives.
But for now I’ve been using TheMovieDb.

themoviedb.org/movie

Then use the Filters section:

  • Select Genres you want to watch
  • Set User Score between 7 - 10
  • Set Minimum User Votes to 50
  • Alter the Filters more if you desire
  • Click Search

For power users, I recommend to use a plugin like NoScript though, to block Google/CookieLaw’s hidden JS spyware on the site (they’re on 2/3th of the web tho).

noscript.net

Beware, NoScript will break some sites,
and will require you to manually enable/whitelist JS (JavaScript) sources for sites + CDNs to fix this again.

Noscript is necessary for modern web browsing

Can you not use uBlock Origin to block 3rd party scripts? Enable advanced mode and add * * 3p-script block to My Rules.

I ask because I want to keep the number of extensions to a minimum.

Rikj000 ,
@Rikj000@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I’d recommend to use both.

uBlock does a nice job of blocking well known advertisements.

However NoScript, is more secure because it disables all JS by default.
While offering you an easy UI to (temporarily/permanently) whitelist individual components.

Keep in mind, this will cause rather heavy site breakage in the first few weeks of using it.
However that will get better once you whitelisted the bare essentials for the sites you regularly visit.

Most sites use 0 to 3 JS sources enabled in NoScript to read/work correctly.
While spy-ware/telemetry infested sites will ship with up to 15 or so JS sources.

JustWatch does a good enough job for me.

Rikj000 ,
@Rikj000@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I can see a lot of spyware on that site through NoScript.

If you use this site without blocking JS components then following parties will be spying on what you click, to sell it to the best bidder:

  • Twitter
  • Facebook
  • Google
  • TikTok
  • SnapChat

And what if I use uBlock?
