Recently I’ve been all about the curated collections that The Criterion Channel puts out. For those that are unaware, they’ll pick a couple themes and put together a list of 6-12 movies complete with a blended trailer and overview of the theme. Right now for instance they have “70s Car Movies” and “High School Horror”. My only complaint is that it obviously only lists movies that are available on The Criterion Channel.

Is there anything similar out there, be it a blog, YouTube channel, whatever, but that will regularly curate lists without regards for where to actually watch the movie?

I know I could just search for best whatever genre movies I’m interested in watching, but sometimes I don’t want to think about what to watch. Additionally, the curated list for a given theme gets me to branch out from what I may typically watch in that I know it’s generally going to be a good movie.

    a little off-topic, but I just opened a Criterion Channel subscription a week or two ago and I’m loving it so far. price is nowhere near as high as other streaming services and I’ve watched all kinds of amazing movies I likely wouldn’t have watched before.
