But that’s the beauty of being caught in a timeloop. Use that time to work on you.
Palm Springs nailed it.
Great movie, and it has Genesis’ “The Brazilian” on its soundtrack, which I never thought I’d see.
Genesis’ “The Brazilian”
I thought that was retired for TV after they used it for that really great Magnum PI episode. No really, it was great.
Why do you need to bother with making the flight?
Maybe OP meant that you fell asleep at the airport and wake up in a panic to an overly loud intercom announcement.
Maybe making the flight on time without being fined is what it takes to break the spell? The loop start when you wake up, then you need to make it 1 hour before and you only have 2 hours before the flight, commute take 45min, and you have 15min to prepare, every loop.
Yes and no. If you’re aware of it you just miss your flight. Buuut, what would very much suck is being mid flight with at least 12 hours left to destination, and no in flight Wi-Fi to boot. Just you, the same in flight movies, and your fellow passengers for years of repeat flight experience.
What would you even do? Learn every line from every movie in every language? Get to know everyone on the flight intimately?
The only logical answer is…

There is a Swedish movie called Naked, which is about a guy who gets Groundhog Day’d in the following way: He wakes up naked in an elevator in an apartment building, he is hungover because it was his bachelor party the night before where he was black out drunk, and his friends left him here in the elevator. As a bonus they shoved a condom up his behind. He has a few hours before his wedding.
It had an american remake, I didn’t know it was originally a swedish movie : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_(2017_film)
But if it’s like Let The Right One In and the Millenium trilogy, the swedish version must be better, I’ve got to watch it
And to anyone thinking it’s european smug /anti-americanism, no I actually enjoyed some american remakes like True Lies, but the swedish Millenium trilogy with Noomi Rapace is great, just as the original Let Me In / Let The Right One In
true lies is a remake? holy shit
Like happened to a friend of ours. The flight, not the groundhog day.
She went on a trip with members of the council, and someone had been sitting on the invitation long enough before booking the flight until all sensible time slots were gone. So the flight was scheduled at 4am, so they had to be at the airport before 3am, which means leaving at 1:30am latest. Then they would have to wait a few hours for a connection, and another 1-2 hours of driving to get to their destination.
You have the max time to do stuff though. Much better than waking up at noon.
Nah, you just spend the day doing other stuff instead.
The worst day would be when suffering from a terrible hangover.
Everyone here needs to watch Palm Springs.
The day before a colonoscopy.
I can’t imagine a worse hell than a lifetime of bowel prep.
Starting pre-laxative, good. _Post-laxative though… Oof. Worst time loop ever.
I fear as the number n of the repeated day approaches infinity, any day would be horrible to have to relive again. And again. And again.
So now I’m thinking about someone who gets Groundhogged on 9-11. After the third day or so, you’d have to believe that this is only happening so you can stop 9-11. But, this guy gets up at 6:30 and has less than two hours until the planes start to hit, and may not even live near NYC. Do you think he’d give up on that or go insane trying?
Could you imagine reliving your day of birth?
Every day sliding out of your mother’s vagina and every night climbing back up there like a lubed up slide.
