Edge of tomorrow deserved an A It's way better than happy death day

I can recommend 12 : 01 from 1993

Edge of Tomorrow has a special place in my heart because it's a criminally underrated movie and in my opinion, one of the better movies that'll still appeal to a general audience. Yes there are minor plot holes like the lack of realism in the alien war as mentioned in the video, but otherwise the pacing, plot and writing are well done enough that I hate how unknown it is to many movie goers

Anyone saying Dexter season 2 was better than the first, never really got it anyway.

I was curious if any one counts Before I Fall?

Halloween Horror Nights had a Happy Death Day house the year it came out. You started in tree's room. The baby face killer would jump out, and then you would again walk into her room. You even saw the cup cake at one point before the baby jumped out again, and then we're back in the dorm room.

The sequel to Happy Death Day does provide a quasi-scientific explanation as to why the time loop happened in the first place.

Run Lola Run

Needed to end after season 5.

thanks for the video, dave! this is complete awesome sauce!!!

No face only becomes a greedy monster after he eats the little frog guy, he talks with the frog’s voice when he’s eating everything, but then goes back to normal after he barfs him up.

Haunted with Amber Tamblyn.

In Quebec, we have a series called Plan B which also uses this plot device to fantastic and very different results.

Before Ground hog day Death Ship twilight zone then 12:01 Showtime 30 minutes show them 12:01 the movie

4:00 Actually it wont make him a murderer of a random innocent guy. In the books, doakes killed alot of people in the iraqi war. He even killed kids when he was in deployment.

Okay, some of these are great. Edge of Tomorrow (Live.Die.Repeat in some regions) was a surprise winner for me. I didn't expect a sci-fi thriller that well done when I watched it. But, if you're really forcing us to compare a lot of VERY different style movies, but sharing a Groundhog Day central premise.. I' completely agree that the OG will always reign superior because it is just *that* good as a film. Nevermind the great comedy, acting and mini-stories, plots and fun stuff that goes on during the day. BUT he takeaway about working on yourself, being a better version of yourself There are countless essays, even masters degree dissertation written on this movie. Philosophy is dripping from it's ever moment without even saying it - it's only apparent on reflection. Just as there is no point to life - we all die. There is equally no point in living forever, as this shows, what's the point? So, making the best of things and being nice for no reason. Also, you're move lovable when you are yourself. Man, there's too much to say..

Honestly if we are all the way in space and when we wake up someone is just working out with em pushups. I dont think thats a scientist, thats some one on a Hunt. So badass🔥

“Only kill an innocent” is the second rule of the code, “Don’t get caught” is first, Dexter would’ve absolutely killed Doakes, an innocent, if it meant upholding the first rule of the code. He makes this same decision multiple times in the rest of the show.

time loops existed before

Im convinced you didnt watch the show. You make your big point that if dexter would go through with framing doakes he would get caught or doakes would die in prison. Thats not the final decision he makes before Lila kills her 😆If you watched the show thats what he originally planned but when he found out his father comitted suicide he and doakes were gonna go back together and he would turn himself in.

Stargate SG-1 - Window of opportunities

Just wanted to say that I never really thought The Batman was as good as its predecessors and i loved how you described the essential batman dilemma that was absent in this one. I always felt like the tone was perfect but it missed the mark in terms of the "mystery" which I felt fell flat, but also didn't really believe the villain. Again, this is all totally my own opinion but I really appreciated how you substantiated some of the issues with the writing. Loved the video!

I know, I keep repeating the same things, but Undertale did it best

Please do this for TV series as well. Stargate has a very memorable Groundhog Day episode.

I think nbc's Hannibal grappled with these themes in a much stronger way

Missed out on Boss Level. That's the best timeloop movie ever made

outer wilds is a good game that uses this

You should checkout the show Reset. It kinda does the groundhog day plot except its more of a time loop then a whole day. It's a Chinese show that is free to watch on Viki. The plot of it is that this college students gets on a bus to go to a bookstore when all of a sudden the bus she is in explodes. She resets back onto the bus, this time a minute before it explodes. The more she dies the further back she resets on the bus. Her goal becomes to get off the bus but even doing that won't stop her from reseting back onto the bus. In hopes of breaking the loop she has to save the bus from exploding. You get to learn the stories of the different characters on the bus and some even join the loop. It's only 15 episodes and there are english subtitles that are very well done that give cultural context to some scenes that as foreigners wouldn't make sense.

It's been a while since I last watched Edge of Tomorrow, but to me it felt like humans were completely losing the war, with it being more about how much longer they could last rather than having any chance of winning the war. I believe the only recent victory they had was Verdun, and that was thanks to Rita having the power to redo the day over and over. I think it's also implied that they only won at Verdun because the aliens wanted them to be overconfident and commit a large part of their forces at once. You could argue that an alien race like that should be able to take over the whole planet much faster than it does in the film. However, to me it felt like it was an automated process, similar to how we might send robots to work on their own on to some other planet, and check on them later. I think that's why the power to go back in time still works for Cage, because it activates automatically each time an "Alpha" dies. I like to assume all the aliens are just automated tools created by a more powerful alien species, who doesn't actually care that much how long the fighting lasts for.

The stated "premise" for Source Code is incorrect. It's very subtle in the movie but the memory implantation is the lie they tell Colter to control him. In the end the truth is revealed that what they actually do is to send his consciousness to a parallel universe, which is almost identical to ours/theirs where he is able to investigate. Every time they send him is to another universe - not the same. I find this idea very cool. They did something similar on Rick and Morty with the "time rewind" gun which was not actually rewinding time. On the last mission he is able to stop the bombing and survive in another's man body in another universe.

One really nice touch in Happy Death day is... BIG SPOILERS, like, I cannot stress how huge this is. * * * * * * * * * * We get one day where she does the Phil thing. She realizes she's shit, the guy who's been helping her figure out the whole mechanic of the thing (and mentions Groundhog Day in the epilogue) suggests being a better person, and she has a day where she does everything right. She uses all of her accumulated knowledge through the dozens of loops to help people. She saves a kid from faceplanting on the ground when he passes out, she tells off the bitchy head of her Sorority, she just goes through the day being the absolute best possible version of herself, even, in a scene with an actor that otherwise does not show up in the film on a set that is unique to that scene, meets her dad for that lunch. She even manages to deal with the guy who killed her mom and was running around with the baby mask! Then she wakes up in the same fucking bed again to the same fucking ringtone. That wasn't her loop. The answer to her specific loop was 'don't die' and she died in her sleep. So, as the movie ends, (the loop escaped through mechanisms I'm not going into here) yeah, she's improved as a person, she's improved a LOT as a person, but other than the guy who's been her support character through all of this, nobody knows the extent to which she improved.

For me, the Picasso reference exposes Kechiche’s true intentions with the film. One of Picasso’s most famous paintings, "Jeune fille devant un miroir" (“Girl before a mirror”), is a famous window into the male view of lesbianism, namely, that lesbians are attracted to their own reflections. While Picasso wasn’t the only artist who held that view, he had a big part in popularizing it. If Picasso is the only artist that comes to Adele’s mind (“Picasso, Picasso, and…Picasso”), then it’s safe to assume his ideas interest her. If nothing else, the dialogue is revealing of Kechiche, and lends weight to critics’ complaints that there is a lack of sexual authenticity in the film. There’s other evidence that the mirror metaphor was intentional. Manohla Dargis, for example, argues that the reason the camera fixates on Adele’s body during the fantasy scene is that audiences are meant to see her “dreaming of her own hot body.” The heavy use of visual symmetry during the sex scene also supports the mirror metaphor. Even the narrative makes sense within Picasso’s self-love framework. One could argue Adele’s desire for a female partner is driven by a goal to find someone who is a reflection of herself (something hinted at by the fantasy scene). Emma initially seems like the perfect person, but Adele ends up struggling precisely because Emma is so fiercely independent. She is her own person, not a reflection of Adele.

The map of tiny perfect things is another one which was acceptable (I haven’t seen Palm Springs but it shares a similar premise, just as a teenage movie). It’s cute. And references directly groundhog gay and edge of tomorrow.

Wow. You know "Blow Up" (which I always thought is great) and you're even making a video about this movie. I am thrilled. Instant subscription.

For those who haven’t seen it plz check out the movie Premature it’s a time loop that is broken when the main character finishes….

Stargate SG-1 - Window of Opportunity (Season 4 Ep. 6)

Tom Crusies movie still a top teir movie for me because action and guns.

Palm Springs is honestly even better than Groundhog Day imo, the thing it does differently from all the other time loop stories (spoilers ahead) is that the loop is essentially unknowable! (Even after Sarah sort of figures out what its deal is, we still don't have answers about... well, the mystical dinosaurs!) The explanation for how the loop works is given little narrative weight because the movie's about WHETHER the characters should leave rather than HOW, and even more than that, it's about the existential fear of committing to a particular view/person/version of yourself that you can't take back, even though you will necessarily get some things wrong. Everything about human life and the world we exist in IS essentially meaningless and unknowable, but we have to TRY to find that meaning/have the courage to know ourselves and our context anyway, because the alternative is being an empty shell. It's honestly such a special movie!

The last one is a time loop where both parties are in a loop and form a bond based off of it? So like russian doll?

With Edge of Tomorrow, I think why the aliens haven't completely wiped the humans is due to basically what we see happen to Cruise's character. You can't predict the unpredictable until it happens and you have to basically keep going through it constantly till you know what will happen and when. I believe it even gets brought up in the movie and if you pay close attention, you see that he's relived the same day so many times that it kind of blends in and you notice he's gone through those moments enough time to remember what happens with it Also I think there was like a prequel story that explains the angel of Verdun having had the same thing happen, which is why she trains him during the movie and knows about it

Edge of tomorrow. Ok now Ill watch the video

The thing that people don't talk about, about Groundhog day movies is the limitation. You're bound to 24 hours. No matter what you do, what you learn, where you go, you're limited to the reset time. You can't fly to the Middle East and back if you live in the US. Even if you could, you're limited to whatever money to started with plus what you earn that day. So even if you win the lottery you're still bound by the time limit. You cannot learn a martial arts. Because your body would reset each day. You would not be able to do it physically. No matter what you do, you can't do enough. You're limited by the time reset limit.

please review ARQ :)

i saw a tumblr post once that said "all stories are about time loops, but time loops are about grief" and i thought that was an interesting take -- similiar to what you said about depression, many time loops are about being forced to dwell on something you don't want to accept until you've worked through it.

you forgot the extremely fun BOSS LEVEL.

Dude! Map of Perfect Little Things belongs on here as well. Even less well known than Palm Springs I think.

Boss Level is also a fun time loop film

Palm Springs failed as scifi, comedy, and romcom. You missed The Map of Tiny Perfect Things, about the same release, and also a 'double groundhog day', but it's actually pretty cute and successful as both a groundhog day and a touching drama. Full disclosure, I have two young daughters and it's family friendly, so we loved it.
