Is there a last.fm-esque website for movies? I want something that allows me to keep track of what I've watched (really, any media tracking website)

I want to be a sharper, wittier writer and conversationalist like the O.G. Dorothy Parker or, hey, even Coketalk. I admire funny, confident women, and while I think I'm moderately funny in person (years of low self-esteem will do wonders for your self-deprecating humor skills once you come out of it, go figure), I'd like to beef it up a bit, as well as learn how to express that more in my writing.

I'm looking for fictional intragenerational incest narratives -- books, film, television, etc. -- in which the relationship is presented as a tragic love, doomed to failure. I'm not interested in the probably more common (and more realistic) pure trauma narratives. The relationship need not necessarily be physically consummated.

As a lay...
very lay...student of Roman Republic and Empire, and anticipating the upcoming HBO/BBC series
Rome with relish, I'm reading everything I can get my hands on about both Republic and Empire. Currently I'm reading an abridgement of
The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire I just inherited. What next? [insert Latin for "more inside" here].
