I like Red Lion. It isn’t either genre, but it is a feudal Japanese film that is filled with a surprising amount of comedy. Could be of interest to you if you can tolerate older movies. Shin Gojira and Gojira Minus One are also both good, but unfortunately don’t fit in the genres you suggested either.

I actually prefer shows that have smaller stories to tell throughout rather than one large story, so we actually agree here. In these cases if the show loses quality at any point, then I can stop watching without leaving as much plot development unresolved. The downside is now you’re either confining each story to a smaller runtime or you’re chopping up a larger plotline into these smaller runtime units.

I suppose this is how I would put it: TV shows are a superior format for character development through smaller storylines. This is why Breaking Bad works so well. Sure you could say it’s one large story told across multiple seasons, but the way it is told is through smaller stories that can almost stand on their own. The larger story isn’t so much a story but one really long thread of character development of Walter. Movies have a disadvantage with character development due to the lower total runtime, but the singular story ends up more rich. One 2hr movie can often feel more satisfying that several hours of a TV show due to how little the viewer needs to invest both mentally and time-wise. That said, there are exceptions to these generalities I’m making, and I’m not exactly an expert when it comes to either of these mediums.

usually TV has the more interesting story to tell.

Hard disagree. I have always thought that movies have had stronger stories due to the fact that they have a much more focused story to tell. TV shows have a lot more time to fill, which leads them to bringing in random B-plots that often end up as distractions from the main story rather than supporting detail. The investment that a TV show demands is often not worth it in my experience, because 9/10 times the show loses steam before they can tie up the plotlines I care about. For every Breaking Bad, there are a ton of Yellow Jackets, Westworlds, etc. I find it much easier to curate a list of movies than a list of shows.

Nothing really stands out. Looks like just more Aliens. I liked Evil Dead 2013, so I’ll hold my judgement.
