Groundhog Day

[elisi]

So, today is Groundhog Day. (Quite literally, it's the 2nd of February. Darcy & Miss M even watched the groundhog live on TV.)

So, tonight we watched the S2 finale of The Good Place and then Groundhog Day, which went very well together - Eleanor is essentially a 21st century Phil Connors.

Eleanor is essentially a 21st century Phil Connors.
But cuter and more awesome.

Well naturally.

Good observation, yes, it's definitely a new spin on that concept!

[elisi]

How do we become better people... (What do we owe to each other?)

Just watched the finale. Can't wait to see what next season is going to be like!

The same again, but different. <3

Groundhog Day is one of my fav movies! :)

[elisi]

It just doesn't stop being awesome. <3

I've never seen that movie all the way through.

[elisi]

HOW????

[sea_thoughts]

LOL because whenever it was on TV, I always had something else to do, something else to watch... I will put it on my list for this year. :)

[elisi]

It is SO worth watching all the way through. *waves hands*

[sea_thoughts]

I mean, I didn't get round to watching Scrooged until 2016 so Groundhog Day already has an advantage in that I've seen some of it.

[elisi]

Groundhog Day is better.

In that, it's a highly original story, whereas Scrooged is just a rather good re-telling of A Christmas Carol.

You forgot to mention that Feb 2nd is also my brother Nick's birthday!!

[elisi]

Oooh. That would be neat, if it kept repeating...

I saw a TV listing where they played the Groundhog Day movie all day long ;)
