This is the monthly thread for posting media of various types that you've found that you enjoy. Post what you're reading, listening to, watching, and your opinion of it. Post recommendations to blogs. Post whatever media you feel like discussing! To see previous recommendations, check out the older threads.
Rules:
Please avoid downvoting recommendations just because you don't personally like the recommended material; remember that liking is a two-place word. If you can point out a specific flaw in a person's recommendation, consider posting a comment to that effect.
If you want to post something that (you know) has been recommended before, but have another recommendation to add, please link to the original, so that the reader has both recommendations.
Please use the comment trees for genres. There is a meta thread for comments about future threads.
If you think there should be a thread for a particular genre of media, please post it to the Other Media thread for now, and add a poll to the Meta thread asking if it should be a thread every month.
Hotarubi no Mori e (cute one-shot with predictable twist ending, no real reason for anyone to watch it)
Movies:
Prince Avalanche: beautiful visuals of a burnt but recovering nature, pretty good OST by Explosions in the Sky, story was kinda an awkward buddy flick which felt almost deliberately dumb. Recommended as nature/scenery porn.
The Princess Bride: fun and enjoyable, and now I will understand references to it.
Mediastan: sort of an awkward exploration of Wikileaks trying to find people to write articles on its cables.
