The Holiday (2006) was a sweet romantic comedy if not entirely memorable, best parts of the movies are Kate Winslet and Eli Wallach's scenes as well as the twist for Jude Law's character. Cameron Diaz' character took a bit of getting used to it and was annoying for the first 40 or so minutes. I think I can recommend it.
Something I've always said about Friday the 13th (1980) is that unlike Halloween is the fact it's not a great movie. Don't get me wrong some of the deaths are pretty cool but the acting is mostly appalling (lead actress Adrienne King in particular), however I did enjoy Betsy Palmer's performeance as Mrs. Voorhies and the Carrie rip off fake ending. I still enjoy this movie though.
Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) however is a rehash of the first movie and is nowhere near as good by any standards, this is the first movie that features Jason doing the killing (without the hockey mask). Pretty uninspired but not completely awful.
Besides all these it's been very television as far as I can remember...
Just finished watching the the first two seasons of the Ren and Stimpy show (aka the John K. years). Really, really funny without some excellent episodes. It's a shame it was never as good as this again.
A great series that never got a massive, massive audience was Dark Angel, watched both series back to back. I absolutely love Jessica Alba so it was a great selling point for me in the first place. Both series are different but both are strong in their own ways. Loved it.
Must of watched some other stuff, just can't remember at the moment...
