Autumn. In the evenings you want to wrap yourselves in a blanket with a cup of coffee and watch your favorite movies. I understand you. And of course, many films and series such as “The Fast and the Furious”, “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “Game of Thrones” come to mind of many people. How nice to remember your favorite characters and plunge into the world of beautiful cinema. But here you recall, you also need to learn new English words. You have drawn up a work plan — at least 10 words per day. Dont be upset. I know how to help you.

Attention!

Watch your favorite movies in English! Just imagine, you will hear real voices of your favorite actors, replenish your vocabulary and have good time.

  1. The Fast and the Furious

It makes no sense to tell the plot. Almost everyone knows him. It makes no sense to recall the actors — they all know by name. A magnificent film series about the best racers of all time. And the roles are played by some of the most famous Hollywood actors.

A real American film with cool landscapes, cars, drive.

Thanks to these films you will not be a master of English, but you will undoubtedly tighten up your spoken American English and work on your accent.

And also remember that there is nothing more important than a personal codex)

  • “It’s not easy to be a hero.”
  • “If you stop being afraid, you can choose your path and walk it without looking back.”
  • “Your own or someone else’s — it does not matter. The most important thing is to know what you want and move forward.”
  • “When you put your life on the card, you learn something new about yourself.”
  • “It is impossible to make love.”

P.S. And do you know that comes The Fast and the Furious 9 in 2020? It’s time to review the franchise.

2. Pirates of the Caribbean

A series of films about the elusive pirate. Cheerless captain Jack Sparrow roams the sea in search of his ship “Black Pearl”, which was stolen from him by Captain Barbossa. The impudent pirate will not stop at nothing to get the coveted ship.

Johnny Depp in the main role!

This film can be watched a million times. This is a chance to learn the pronunciation of the name Elizabeth, as well as the words “captain” and “pirate” in English, almost 100%. Also, a couple of catchphrases from Jack Sparrow. You will inevitably remember the word “Savvy?”. In general, a great option to learn new words and have a good time watching a quality movie.

  • Honest people need to beware: you won’t even notice when they do something stupid.
  • It is better not to know when death will overtake you and live in awe, admiring with all your soul the great secret of being.
  • — This is madness!
    — No, this is politics!
  • — You are either a madman or a genius.
    — These are two extremes of the same entity.
  • Friends, remember this day when you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow!

3. Game of Thrones

This is a fantasy based on the novel “Song of Ice and Fire” by George Martin.

“Game of Thrones” is famous for its epic, intrigue and special effects. And also in this movie there is a witty language of characters, various accents and catchy dialogs. This series really boosts your English.

  • People always demand the truth, but they rarely like it.
  • Some doors close forever, while others open in the most unexpected places.
  • Our mind needs books, like a sword, a grindstone.
  • Politics is the art of compromise.
  • My brother once told me: “Everything that a person says before the word “but ” does not matter.” But…

P.S. If you want? you can also read the novel “Song of Ice and Fire” by George Martin. It is really fantastic too.

Spend your time usefully!
