It can be frustrating when you're looking for quality websites with movie clips and/or teaching ideas for your ESL/EFL classroom, only to find mediocre or outdated ones. I've done some searching as a new teacher and grad student, and I've come across several websites that I keep coming back to. I hope that these will be helpful for you as well!
Movie Segments to Assess Grammar Goals

This is a wonderful website where great movie clips and grammar lessons meet. The movie clips are categorized by grammar points, levels, and there is even a category for kinesthetic learners. The movie clips also specify the target age group. For each video clip, there is an activity and supplementary worksheets.
Less prepping + students being entertained and learning important skills = happy teacher, happy students!

Finding good movie clips is one thing--finding whole lesson plans based on a movie clip is another! Here you'll find lesson plans for each video and film that not only focus on teaching English, but help cultivate critical thinking skills. This can help initiate meaningful discussions where students can share about their values and thoughts on various topics.
The Internet Movie Script Database (IMSDb)
http://www.imsdb.com/
This site offers movie scripts (and a select few TV scripts) available for download. The movies are categorized by alphabetical order and genres, and there is a separate list for TV scripts. The website is updated regularly with new movie scripts. This would be great for analyzing grammar, etc.
