    So a week or so ago, I watched A Few Good Men (I had seen it many times before). Then the next day, I came home and my brother was watching it; it was near the beginning. I stood there and watched for a little bit, because it was a particularly good scene. And kept standing. And kept standing. Finally I just gave up and sat down, and watched it again.

    There are many GREAT movies and TV shows around, but I find it's very rare to find something that can actually be watched twice in one day, and still be extremely enjoyable. For example, Casshern might be my favorite movie ever, but I couldn't watch it twice in a row. It just doesn't have that kind of quality to it.

    For me, this stuff does:

    Movies
    A Few Good Men
    The Man Who Knew Too Little
    High Fidelity

    Mini-Series
    Band of Brothers
    Death Note

    TV Shows
    Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
    Highlander: The Series
    Scrubs


    How about you guys?

    Not really. If it were, I would have included Casshern, all three Lord of the Rings Movies, V for Vendetta, The Power of One, The Princess Bride, Berserk, and Groundhog Day.

    I love those just as much as I do the ones I originally listed... I just wouldn't want to watch them twice in the same day.

    Yet it would seem fitting to watch Groundhog Day twice in one day.
