In the past, I have been watching many mysterious movies because they are exciting. But life sometimes is hard enough, why should I then at home watch movies or series which are realy brutal. I feel like movies/series always need more crazy shit to be still popular.
I am looking for good funny movies/series which entertain and give you a positive feeling.
I think the world needs more positivity
These are more “leave you feeling good” than “funny” but
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Big Fish
Also Julia for a series. That show made me so happy when I watched it lol
And Rockos Modern Life is my all time favorite
Here’s something nobody has seen, but is sweet despite the premise: Brigsby Bear https://letterboxd.com/film/brigsby-bear/
I think this fits, too: Moonrise Kingdom https://letterboxd.com/film/moonrise-kingdom/ If you have my sense of humor, you’ll also find this one rather funny.
Everything Everywhere All at Once
The Detectorists (available free on freevee) is my current go-to for when I need some chill positive vibes. Everything about it just feels like a warm hug.
For movies, you can’t go wrong with a low-stakes slice-of-life comedy. Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret and You Hurt My Feelings are two recent ones which I loved.
Oh, The Detectorists has such a special place in my heart. Really a one-of-a-kind show. The comedy is so good and you just love everyone (except Simon & Garfunkel of course). The pacing and the reverence for wild spaces and quiet is so meaningful. I think the casting was impeccable. Now I want to go watch it again!
I always feel Scrubs is worth rewatching.
