Which brand of oil and oil filter?

I'm about to change the oil in my Aveo5 for the first time and I was wondering what brand of oil and filter everyone was using.

BTW I bought the car used.

Thanks in advance...

I use to use Mobil 1 with Mobil 1 filter, but now I use Amsoil and their filters. Either one is good, but I prefer Amsoil.

Pennzoil Synthetic 5w30 is what I use in my truck, my stepdad always ran conventional in his 89 Chevy Silvy, got 287,000miles before rebuild, 235,000miles before the rings blew. I'm kinda partial.
