Inspired by Zoe's Cava + Trinity recommendation, this is a thread for those perfect combinations of telly or films and foods.

At university I watched Twin Peaks marathons with cherry pies, and recently can't resist a mixer with Mad Men.

Post it!

The Big Lebowski and a pitcher of White Russians.

Anything and a pitcher of White Russians

As long as I have a pack of cigs and a cold can of diet coke or cup of black coffe at hand, I'm quite happy.




Mad Men and a box of tissues for me.

It must be very moving...

Good whiskey & Battlestar Galactica.

You can pretend you're drinking with The Old Man.

Sailor Jerry's (and optional Coke/diet coke) when watching a comedy, be it a film, sitcom or stand-up.

Going with Rua's post, Whiskey and Sci-fi is a good combo.

Steak, eggs and mash whilst watching Twister.

Any dish with a good Ragù while watching Goodfellas.

[DELETED]: Actually that was lame.

That's what I wear when I watch Velvet Goldmine

Battlestar in particular. That lot beat it into them at any given opportunity.

Last Tango in Paris and a buttery cock.

Nob of butter would have been better

Surely you'd be drinking with Colonel Tigh, Rua? He is the whisky man.

I always want to have the food in Merlottes when watching True Blood. Those fries look good.

We'd lick each others bald heads & weep.

Yes! In a basket!

McNulty and Bodie eating burger and fries in Season 4 of The Wire made me want a burger and fries. FACT!

When i see those vials, I want some crack y'all.

Agreed. I actually would like to try some True Blood as well. Just a sip, to say I have... that's probably weird.

You can buy replica bottles in Forbidden Planet. Don't know what it tastes like... chicken stock?

Tomato juice. Bleurgh.

Tarantino movies are good for drinks - I want to do a drinks run and need suggestions. So far -

Kill Bill 1 and 2 - assorted vodkas and juices. And some saki. But also - themed with which 'snake'? It's an idea.
Pulp Fiction - Dacquiri, margaritas or just some milkshakes!

Surely a burger with Pulp Fiction?

I once tried to drink along with Deadwood by having a glass of whisky every time someone on screen had a drink. I was pretty smashed within half an hour and very sick the following day.

The lord of the rings drinking game in which you take a shot or spirit or a mouthful of beer when your chosen character appeared on screen was fun, easy to get smashed too. We only tried it with Two Towers though, can't imagine doing the whole trilogy in one day.


Also, after years and 20ish bond films, I tried Martini shaken not stirred a couple of years ago (but not during a Bond film). Didn't think much of it, was alright though.

A bottle of Pinot when watching Sideways (NOT merlot!).

I hate that film on so many levels - I'd end up throwing it at the screen.

I only got half way through, I never understood what all the fuss was about.

So you can! But "delicious blood orange carbonated drink" doesn't quite seem the same.

Put some mince in a blender.

The healthy option: eat an orange with The Godfather trilogy.

I played a similar game with Silence Of The Lambs. Everytime someone tucked their winkie away to create a mangina, so would I.

I was like a beautiful butterfly.

And then order a diagnostic on DRAIDIS.

I have what is both a disturbing and hilarious image in my head now.

Chuckles.
