    My intent for this thread was to shine a little limelight on sites that do a good job of cross referencing movies that you enjoy. I wish there were more.

    I liked Resident Evil
    Recommendation is... Underworld I/II

    I liked... Underworld I/II
    Recommendation is... Ultraviolet

    I liked Ultraviolet
    Recommendation is... Aeon Flux

    edit: If you enjoyed any of these you might like:

    Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001)

    Ghost In The Shell (1995)

    Ghost In The Shell 2 (2004)

    Thanks for the links. Filmaffinity seems kind of neat with it trying to match you up with 20 users who have the same likes. Only bad thing about that is that it seems to only recommend movies that those 20 users have rated.

    For those that have children, this site offers more than anyone would want to know about violence, language and sexual content of a movie. There was a period of time when my son was 10-13, and some R rated movies were okay for him to watch, but then some pg13 movies contained things that I felt were inappropriate. The above site helped a great deal making those decisions.
