Things like the weather are pretty trite, and subjects like religion and politics are no-nos if you don't know a person well.
A good conversation can be opened by asking a person if they've seen a particular movie, read a particular book, or what they think of a certain show, then carry on from there.
But --oh no!--what if they haven't seen/read it? No problem. If it's a movie you asked about, then ask what movies they haveseen or what their favorites are.
But what if they say they don't like movies at all? Then ask them what they do like to do in their free time. Open-ended questions are great --asking a person what they do in their spare time means they can't just answer "yes" or "no".
If you're a young person, ask what they like most/least about school. For older people, ask the same about their work.
Most of all, if the other person introduces a topic, don't let it drop. For example, if you ask them if they like a certain movie and they say they mostly like to knit, follow upon the knitting. If you know NOTHING about knitting, that's okay. Ask them what THEY like so much about it, or how they got started.
