Updated, thanks for all the suggestions.
Whispering Corridors goes up to 5 or 6, Swordcraft Story too. I only added the ones that were named here, should the others be on here too?

I'm not gonna search through the web comics thread cause that's work and I don't think yuri was needed to be named there. But if you have webcomics with yuri, then I'm gonna add them.

The Whispering Corridors movies are all unrelated to each other as far as I know, save that they all take place in schools. As far as I know, only the second one has an explicitly lesbian couple. The rest would be subtext at most, and from the Wikipedia synopses it seems like at least a couple don't come off as gay at all.

Oh, and if we're talking novels, The Graveyard Sparrow is a nice period-piece-plus-magic story about a reclusive girl who communicates with the dead becoming involved with a female magician while investigating a series of Jack the Ripper style murders. Ending resolves a bit too easily for my taste, but the rest of the book holds up fine. Certainly a better crafted effort than the author's previous work, Bluebell Hall, which was a lovely bit of fluff with a diverse cast, but didn't get much beyond the fluff stage.

Also worth at least a mention is The Second Mango by Shira Glassman, an India-themed heroic fantasy story that's a fun enough yarn although I found it didn't have much depth and again, the ending wraps up way too easily. Still got lots of enjoyable moments so I wouldn't call it bad by any means.

Duuuudddee I wanna play Dragon Age sooooooo baaaaaaaaaaaaddd. If anyone is thinking about getting this game, read this review, and I assure you, you'll want it. ( And it's in comic-form so it doesn't take long to read.) http://www.ohjoysextoy.com/dragon-age-molly-ostertag/

Haha, I love Dragon Age. I've played the first two, but have yet to play the third though [mostly because I hate all of the characters sigh].

The first one is amazing, the second one not so much (but not nearly enough to be bad or even decent as many people seem to say it is).

If any of y'all have a PS3 and haven't played it, I also second (or third?) the recommendation. You won't regret it.

Unless you have finals

Dragon age 3 game play is so much enjoyable that sometime i forgot about romance stuff. The character is not so bad but i wish could go out with other character like Morgan or Leliana.

There is some yuri in otome game but most of them are sub route or minor ending. But recently i just played Queen's gambit from Voltage USA and they have one female character route to be picked. It's quite good since the protagonist and this character do have their own story for themselves (not like yuri character in most otome game).

One I wouldn't recommend is The Gunfighter and the Gearhead by Cassandra Duffy. I don't know how you take a porny lesbian romp about an airship pilot falling in love with a Victoria's Secret model turned deadly gunslinger in a post-apocalyptic steampunk version of California following an alien invasion and make it really not that much fun, but she somehow manages. The elements are all there, but the way the author puts them together gave me a bad taste.

Yes!yes! Finally a place where I can squeal about Shaw and root. Person of interest is one of the better tv shows around, the Shaw-root thing starts in season 2 and grows very subtly and is amazing to watch.
- Carmila is watchable just because of the chemistry between the main characters, but apparently that's all it takes because I saw it all in one go.
- buffy had willow whose growth was amazing to watch and you almost have THE girl that you could want in her but then a trope happened.
- South Of Nowhere is an amazing show, probably the best teen Yuri show ever made.

I think it's safe to add at least 1st and 3rd. I don't remember about the 4th one; 5th is definitely out.

Those are on the list already, but thanks anyway.

More film stuff: Naissance des pieuvres, When night is falling, Fucking Åmål, My summer of love, Passion (the Brian de Palma movie). I also believe the series Warehouse 13 is said to have a lesbian couple, but I haven't watched it (yet).

No, it's subtext only. Fun show though. My suggestion would be to watch the first 3 seasons, then the first episode of season 4 and pretend that everything resolved itself nicely. The general opinion regarding the 5th and final season is that it doesn't exist, so whatever you do, don't watch that.

Another movie suggestion would be Saving Face, a funny and sweet romantic comedy.

Does the subtext get destroyed or does it just suck in general?

Again thanks for all the entries for the list, by the way. Didn't know there were that many movies.

Both ! Apparently even the actors were pissed with the way it ended.

I wanted to recommend more, but I don't know if my goggles were just too tight on my face.

Haha, I know that problem. It's hard to suggest subtext shows. People went all like "Dude, that's not goggles anymore, that's a yuri telescope" when I wanted to have Chuuni in the club relations of the yuri MAL club I'm in. I'm obviously in the right, though

Maybe you know some of the ones named here or here and can confirm or something?

Well, that sucks, I'll see what I'll do about adding it. Probably just gonna add a note saying to drop it when you said to drop it.

I haven't seen the movie, but the novel Tipping the Velvet was terriffic.

Fingersmith by the same author was really good too.

I've watched some of these! El Niño Pez is relevant (there is a book too, by the same person who directed the movie), so is Mulholland D., Black Swan, A Room in Rome. I've watched Foxfire, but a newer version. It's one of the movies I wanted to recommend. It's really, really good.

EDIT: for movies:

D.E.B.S.
^ it's a cheesy spy movie.

D.E.B.S. was awesome!

Oh, and a weirdly fun little "horror" movie that just ends up being really nifty instead I watched a while ago called Memento Mori would be worth looking up. Worth it for the amazing design of the exchange diary the girls keep/kept and the wonderfully surreal ending.

I didn't like D.E.B.S.. I know it isn't meant to be classic for the centuries, but it was a bit too silly and unprofessional at times. The only saving grace was Jordana Brewster, really.

Maus:
That seems really creepy and I kinda wanna play it now.

Higurashi and Umineko are graphic tests to see just how far anime characters can grimace before becoming Looney Toons

The first episode usually makes or breaks the series for people because of it's slow pacing and it plays the mystery aspect the straightest out of all of them,
The meta-world and supernatural doesn't get introduced until the second

Witch Hunts patch should suffice for a glorious translation and Umii-tweaks delivers better eyecandy for the visuals (and Audio, the only thing the anime was good for, perfect cast) since it replaces the originals with Alchemists Ps3/PSP visuals and adds CG's, though they are currently working on an actual PS3/PSP to PC port, which adds all kinds of wonderous things https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=13&v=Muc2B0DL-zg

Developement only started this year though, so your choice, I went through fine with the first patch

Are you talking France or Quebec? Because the latter can be kinda weird when it comes to gays. Or anyone, really.

Ah, might be some sort of international rights thing. That unfortunately happens sometimes.
