I Use These 7 ChatGPT Entertainment Plugins Every Day — and These Prompts Help Them Deliver the Best Music and Movie Recommendations

Wading through ChatGPT’s vast offering of plugins can be a bit daunting. But whenever I come across one that’s worthwhile, it quickly morphs into an everyday tool that helps me in one way or another. The library of entertainment-centered plugins is home to a bunch of familiar apps I’m sure most folks use. What makes those themed plugins so reliable is how they’ve led me to come across a wide range of music and movies that I never would have uncovered without their assistance.

It’s gotten to the point where I take heed of the recommendations those plugins give me, do my research into them to see if they’re highly reviewed or quality listens and end up passing those same music and movie suggestions along to other people. I’ve also found equally great ChatGPT entertainment plugins that curate other parts of my favorite hobbies — I’ve definitely had a much easier time discovering the sort of video games and manga that have eluded me for far too long.

These are the seven best ChatGPT entertainment plugins I rely on the most, along with the prompts that unlock their full potential.

1. Spotify

Walking to the train station and sitting on the train in complete silence is something I’ll just never do. Without music accompanying me on my daily walks and rides to work, I think I’d go mad. Tapping into my music streaming apps to keep me busy and block out the annoying noise has turned into a daily occurrence.

The Spotify plugin has helped out immensely in that regard since it has showcased a diverse lineup of artists, albums, and songs that have earned themselves a permanent spot on my playlists. Telling the Spotify plugin about my appreciation for Devin Morrison and being led to the soothing tunes of Gareth Donkin has been a blessing to my ears. The best prompt: Analyze my music taste and recommend [number] songs I probably haven't heard but will love. Focus on artists and genres that match my favorites, explain why each song fits, and organize the picks into a playlist with a great listening flow. [list favorite artists and genres]

2. Apple Music

The Apple Music plugin has also been amazing as an AI-fueled music curator, entering my ChatGPT plugin ecosystem as a reliable music playlist builder. Those custom playlists haven’t just made my city trips a whole lot easier to deal with, but they’ve also provided my friends with some great songs for our monthly get-togethers.

Letting the Apple Music plugin learn about my favorite artists across the genres of rap/hip-hop, R&B, and alternative music has resulted in it showcasing the likes of Smino, Tiana Major9, and Clyde Crooks. The best prompt: Create a [number]-song playlist inspired by my favorite artists: [list artists]. Include a mix of familiar songs and discoveries, avoid repetitive sounds, and arrange the tracks so the energy rises and falls naturally.

3. Tubi

“If it’s free, it’s for me!” That saying will never leave my box of catchphrases. Tubi’s vault of movies covers an array of genres and cycles through all of the decades where I’ve built up my taste for cinematic flair. When I do get the urge to go on a movie binge-watching run, I tap into the Tubi plugin to find something underrated or overlooked.

So far, the Tubi plugin has saved my dry Friday and Saturday nights by giving me lesser-known action flicks, like Hotel Artemis, Mayhem, Rolling Thunder, and Crime Story. The best prompt: Plan a free movie night for me using movies available on Tubi. I like [genres, favorite films, or actors]. Give me [number] options, rank them by how entertaining they sound, and tell me which one is best for a fun night versus a serious movie night.

4. Flixor

Flixor is just as good at highlighting the sort of movies and TV shows that match my interests. I usually use this one to search for films and series that may not exist on mainstream streaming services, which often leads me to picking them up on DVD or Blu-ray.

However, Flixor has also put me onto streaming content readily available across Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Hulu. It has helped add films, shows, and anime like Sicario, Perfect Blue, Dark, and Black Lagoon to my media rotation. The best prompt: Recommend [number] movies or TV shows based on my favorites: [list titles]. Focus on similar atmosphere, storytelling, character development, and twists rather than just the same genre. Rank the recommendations and explain why each suits my taste.

5. GameFinder

ChatGPT’s plugins have done a lot of the heavy lifting for me when searching for entertainment, including video games. The GameFinder plugin helps uncover hidden gems that sadly get buried by their AAA contemporaries on digital storefronts.

I never would have played A Hat in Time, ULTRAKILL, Spark the Electric Jester, and Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden if it wasn’t for GameFinder keeping my backlog thriving during dry gaming months. The best prompt: Recommend [number] video games based on my favorite games: [list games]. Analyze what I enjoy about them, including combat, exploration, progression, atmosphere, story, and difficulty. Rank your recommendations by how likely I am to love them, and include at least five underrated picks.

6. Emaqi

I randomly found out about ChatGPT’s manga recommendation plugin from a friend, and Emaqi has completely transformed my reading list. It provides countless manga titles to dive into beyond the usual giants like One Piece, Dragon Ball, and Naruto.

The plugin helped me discover equally enjoyable titles such as Psyren, Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai, and O-Parts Hunter, making reading manga an even bigger hobby of mine. The best prompt: Recommend [number] manga based on my favorite series: [list series]. Compare their storytelling, artwork, characters, pacing, and worldbuilding. Give me five mainstream picks and seven underrated recommendations. Flag whether each series is complete or ongoing when that information is available, and avoid spoilers.

7. Chessy

While I am more of a casual gamer when it comes to board games, the Chessy plugin sits right inside ChatGPT’s directory to help me learn the game of chess by playing directly against the chatbot.

I tend to get beaten by ChatGPT most of the time, but it provides constructive feedback after every move, letting me know what I did well and where I went wrong so I can improve. The best prompt: Play a chess game with me. I'm a beginner, so let me choose my moves while you explain your strategy in plain English. After each of my moves, tell me one thing I did well and one mistake I should watch for. Keep the game competitive but educational.

Final Thoughts

ChatGPT’s entertainment plugins have been a massive boon whenever I’m looking for new music, movies, TV shows, video games, and manga. They curate hidden gems and cater to niche hobbies seamlessly, proving that AI is much more than a productivity tool—it’s a powerful companion for leisure and entertainment.
