Islam doesn't give a detailed list of the entertainments that are allowed. It gives a list of items that are not allowed. In other words, all entertainment is allowed except the one that falls in the forbidden category. What is that list? I can mention a few things that come to my mind. May Allah Almighty forgive me if I forget some part of it.

* Obscenity. Movies are condemned by some of our Ulema because they are seen to be obscene. You don't have to agree with what I say, but I do agree with those Ulema who condemn movies.

* Consuming products that are haram, i.e. alcohol, pork etc.

* Indulging in activities that draw you away from the remembrance of the Almighty, especially prayers. Some forms of music would most certainly fall into this category, and some in the first category. Some people condemn Chess for the same reasons.

* Any other activity that is otherwise not acceptable to the shari'ah. For instance, deceiving others, gambling, stealing, telling lies etc.

Everything else is allowed in Islam for the purposes of entertainment, although Islam would caution you that you haven't come in this world primarily to enjoy. However, if you get bored, or in order to keep your spirits alive, you feel like doing something different, you can get involved in any entertainment of your choice that are not disallowed in the Qur'an.
