Entrepreneur Porn (TV / Movies)

Halt and Catch Fire - about the rise of computer industry in the 80s and 90s. Historical fiction. One of the best series ever.

• Halt and Catch Fire – Excellent show running multiple seasons, showing 4 different founders working together across multiple firms, guiding you through the 80s & 90s when tech startaups were truly pioneered.
• Billions – Follows a billionaire investor, while certainly fictional and nothing close to indie maker style entrepreneuring it does give the right vibe around doing business.

Pursuit of Happiness

I would say:

• Breaking Bad
• Better Call Sall

Although the product is illegal you can learn a good deal about product value, marketing, distribution, selling skills, customer development and validation...

Just try to watched with an entrepreneur mind :)

‘startup.com’ documentary.

It’s an emotional rollercoaster!

Released in 2001 but it’s timeless if you’re interested in startup culture.

• Shark Tank
• The Profit
• The Apprentice (UK)

Some suggestions off the top of my head:

• Titan
• The Men Who Built America
• The Founder
• Triumph of the Nerds

I'd go for The Social Network, but not Silicon Valley. I don't know, Silicon Valley is so overrated...
