I am an unrepentant movie rewatcher. When life is really stressful, my go-to is watching LOTR Extended Editions 40-60 mins at a time like it’s a TV series lol. Also in heavy rotation at my house: The Martian, First Man, Ford v. Ferrari, Deja Vu (which is criminally underrated), MI: Fallout…a few others

A full rewatch of LOTR extended edition is at minimum a yearly tradition for me. Usually more, or just letting it play while I’m doing other things.

Pre-pandemic it was my annual ritual to watch it while baking and decorating Christmas cookies. It’s a great way to spend 12 hours. Maybe this year I can finally reinstate the tradition.

Serendipity.

We decided earlier we need to watch T2 tonight.

I watched it with the Eldest (12) son earlier in the year, now it’s time to make the youngest (10) watch it.

He’s already wearing the Arnold hoody we found in a charity shop, and singing “I need your clothes, your boots, your motorcycle” by Austrian Death Machine, he really needs some context.

Come with me if you want to live

I rewatched it with the commentary recently and it was super interesting to hear about what went into its stunts and whatnot

Honestly I hate rewatching things unless it’s been long enough that I’ve forgotten everything. Not much beats watching something good for the first time

I rewatch step Brothers pretty much every month and I’ve watched the batman(2022) probably about 5 or 6 times . And the spider verse movies many times . Actual most of the movies I watch lately are movies I’ve seen a few times already.

By golly, you’re right! I should start there and just make a whole day of it.

The hospital escape is my favorite scene in any movie.

Totally agree. Sitting there watching in the theatre was the best unexpected cinematic pleasure ever. Just sheer jaw dropping wide eyed fascination.
