I really like the experience of a movie, show, or game that I am experiencing again after a several year gap. I get to look forward to the big unforgettable plot points and see how the details build to them, but some of those details are fuzzy after so much time. I get to still experience the ride even though I know where it’s headed in the end.
This is a great description. Exactly!
If you're always stoned when watching then you're getting the same effect too
I just re-listened to the Bobiverse audio book for the 2nd time, and whilst I remembered the general plot, it still felt fresh as its been 5 years or so since I first listened to it. Such a great series.
My parents watched the 6th Sense no less than 8 times from 1999 to 2008 and every time I was like "You know you've seen this movie before right?" and they would argue they hadn't and then (Spoilers for a 25 year old movie I guess) when Bruce Willis is dead at the end it would blow their minds every single time.
I couldn’t stand to watch something more than once when I was younger.
Now all I gotta do is wait a few weeks and it’s brand new all over again. Only big moments seem to stand out, or episodes of shows that meant a lot to me.
I couldn’t watch Who Watches the Watchers or Inner Light from TNG for example. That is, unless I was showing them to someone else.
But eventually you only watch the pilot every time because you forget. Everytime.
Part of me is legitimately looking forward to rewatching all of my favorite movies and TV for the first time in my terminal years. I can't be the only one who wants to see The Return of the King again for the first time.
Aw yeah, such a classic
It’s great being old. You always get to meet new people.
