Movies and music are bad, harmful for meditation

Today in the morning I sat in meditation for 25 minutes(it might be 2 minutes more:)) However, all the time throughout the whole meditation session, my mind distracted every now and then. After every 20 or 30 seconds, I found myself thinking about some other things. Most of the thoughts were about the movies I saw last night.

Not only this time, but I also noticed such thing happening a few times before. At those times too, movies, music and videos were the reason for distraction of mind in my next day's meditation session. So now I have to restrain myself from watching movies and listening to music. They don't make my mind calm, rather making it distracted.
