The concept of rewatching a movie is almost foreign to me now given that I have access to a library of tens of thousands of movies. It would have to be very good and something that whoever I’m with hasn’t seen.
Of course I used to watch the same movie about every month or so back when I was growing up in the 90s.
It might, but it definitely hasn’t. I work in some fresh blood on the weekends, when I feel up to taking a chance. Actually, I’ve got a date to go see Dream Scenario (Nic Cage 🥰) just this week.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind - it’s just so nicely structured, you always notice something new
Glengarry Glen Ross - I finished watching it for the first time and I thought go myself “fuck, I could watch it again” and I did, watch the whole movie again straight away. I can still just go back and watch it. The acting is so amazing it never gets boring
Veep - best show ever, I’ve seen every episode probably over 10 times and I still watch it all the time, like when I’m cooking or something. It’s just soooo fucking perfect
I actually listen to Futurama to help me sleep. I’ve added some other shows I know just as well. They are in that genre of extraordinary media that I can watch/listen to/etc. over and over again.
I have trash taste, so I actually just continue to rewatch the same dumb shit I liked in the 90s so I don’t have to make a decision. I actually paid real money to buy Not Another Teen Movie a few years back because I rewatch it about once a year. I think we have too many options and they’re all on different services so it’s like fuck it, Men In Black for the 85th time.

I don’t think this is a technical limitation, I think young children really like repetition because their brains are still learning how to predict things

That’s curious because I find I rewatch more movies than ever before, since it’s so easy to find them, and I already know whether I like them or not.
The first thing I do when Return of the King ends is put on Fellowship of the Ring.
This you, King? https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/my-precious-canadian-user-watched-lord-of-the-rings-361-times-on-netflix-1.3716170
That does prevent you from finding new movies you like though.

Movies/shows I can still see many times today:

Same. And Demolition Man holds the distinction of being the only movie I rewatched on the same day.
We’d rent The Princess Bride and Flight of the Navigator a few times a year.

To the chagrin of parents who endure Cocomelon or Caillou rerun marathons.
This is true. My little brother watched “The Lion King” every day after school for a few months.
