Everything. No, seriously, everything from 1970's oi and street punk to cheesy R&B to traditional Armenian folk to Reggaeton and every single thing inbetween and beyond. If it has notes and rhythm, I'm all about it. I have no knowledge of creating music, so I make up for that by building a listening repertoire.
Sin City, Land Of The Dead, City Of God, Bread and Roses, The Shawshank Redemption, Magnolia, The Life Aquatic, Harry Potter (yeah, that's right, you heard me), Hotel Rwanda, The Prestige, Inside Man, Batman Begins, Do The Right Thing, The Namesake, Children of Men, Pan's Labyrinth, Devil's Rejects, The Devil's Backbone, Ratatouille, Primer, Layer Cake, 28 Days Later, Perfume, Akira, The Excorsist, Return To Oz, City of Lost Children, Snatch, The Departed, Death Of A President, Insomnia, Pretty Woman, Bladerunner, Spirited Away, A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints, Cradle Will Rock, Edward Scissorhands. This is the tip of the iceberg, I could seriously go on for hours. I live for watching films. One day, I'll be making them...
The Daily Show, Heroes, The Office, Arrested Development. I don't get reception, so everything I watch has to be downloaded. This helps filter out a lot of crap.
I have a hard time reading dead tree versions of stuff. Recommend something and I'll check it out, though.
