What’s wrong with Lord of the Rings? Was a great trilogy, forget the Amazon show
For me, great movies are about making something exceptional with the simple things which life has to offer (ordinary places, relationships, people, etc.). All the fictional movies with special effects, fictional places, and special characters are extras to a movie in the same way as silicone is to porn. I prefer what is real, what is raw, and generally what feels more close to my daily life instead of what is extremely woah but distant.
Better Call Saul but not Breaking Bad? I would also put The Wire on there too.
