Damn. We turned it off seconds before that. Can’t trust any movie these days to tell the story before the credits.

Man I loved this movie. Would love a follow on. Seems so many movies and TV shows are forgetting to be actually FUN. This was.
One little detail I liked is that
Would not need to really use the time loop device as
I also found her mad attractive.

I loved this one. I’ll watch it a few times.
If it were in theaters it’d definitely be a sleeper hit.

Well I ended up watching it anyway, and it's actually really good. I'm glad it wasn't a comedy which I had expected.

Enjoyed this quite a bit. IMO, it could have been better if the whole movie was about Samberg/Simmons and their back and forth trying to kill each other.

Oh, I forgot, the cool thing was I was pretty stoned while watching this, and after it was over, it took about 10 minutes for my brain to start processing time correctly again

This. I was thinking the exact same thing when he was explaining it. Simply a non-challant, "It's just like the movie Groundhog Day" and then she gets it.

I've already watched this movie more times than I'm willing to admit.
I fear we're about to reach the point where people watch it because they keep hearing about it and they're going to be on the disappointed side of the wave.

Outside of knowing this was a time-loop film (a genre I can't get enough of), I went in blind and loved it. Already watched it twice. It was fun catching things I missed the first time, like some of the comments Samberg said at the start of the film.

Saw this and absolutely loved it. Miloti is just yummy.
I liked the montage of the different ways Roy killed Niles.

Once while they're tripping on shrooms, and it's also the closing shot of the movie.
Depending on your TV/Screen, it may have been hard to see them the first time since it was a night shot.
Double checked and now their dance music is stuck in my head.

I watched this last night and really enjoyed it. A high quality Hulu "original"? Whodathunk?
During the montage when Sarah is discovering how to get back to normal, they used an instrumental deep cut from Genesis' Invisible Touch. I devoured that cassette as a kid, but hadn't heard that particular song in ages. Man, that took me back.
Same. It's such an obvious reference, it would've been nice to have a little riff on it. But I guess it's like how zombie movies don't exist within the realm of most zombie movies.

Don’t get too carried away. Ha. This was 100% ready for a theatrical release before Covid. I think it would have been a solid hit at like $150M or something. But we will never know.

Now that theaters are opening back up, I wonder if they are considering releasing it, since Hulu does not have the subscribers that Netflix has.
Do they still create physical prints for individual theaters? I guess they wouldn't want to spend money on that.
