To Watch

Here's my list of recommendations to watch and read (among other things). If it's not on the list, then either I haven't seen it, or it didn't occur to me to recommend it XD
These are mostly suggestions for entertainment. I have a separate post where I list research sources: References for Writer's. 

Just a heads up, a few of these movies contain insulting stereotypes (It's mostly confined to older Disney movies).
