    If you are going to include The Sopranos you need to include Breaking Bad.

    Simpsons too....

    I have very fond memories of Dad and I watching the Simpsons. Dad pretended it was daft but he loved it and made sure we watched it when mum wasn't around!

    Harry Fucking Potter

    What a cult following this has. Never read the books. Never seen the movies.

    That will annoy the shit out of JK Rowling.

    But for you guys she could potentially have sold 500,000,013 books - or 500,000,014 if MN5 only borrowed Book 1.

    When she started writing them digital books weren't really a thing and the publishers foolishly let her have the exclusive rights to them. Damn that must hurt.

    JK Rowling's twitter feed is that of a raging SJW. For someone that has written such popular books she comes across as a complete fucking idiot.

    How could I forget Assayas's Carlos, and The Best of Youth. Both are so damn good.
