This movie is the definition of character growth, if you want to write a redemption arc and see a character change, this is the movie

[@LordLOC]

The time loop duration is a big question mark. Estimates range from 10 years (originally stated by Ramis himself) to 70 to 80 years by Phil himself in one of the original drafts of the movie. Then there's the buddhist stuff Ramis picked up from his wife at the time, which says it takes 10,000 years for someone to evolve to the next level etc. Then there are those who say it's more like 35 years. It's wild how much time he may have been in the loop.

[@fenderbassnguitar]

Rita says in bed, " I wish I had a thousand lifetimes", which implies he had told her that day that he had lived a thousand lifetimes. 70yrs*1000lifetimes = 70,000 yrs

[@OneThousandHomoDJs]

That "10,000" magic number is *hours*. 10,000 hours to achieve mastery of a skill. Not years.

[@AdsForAdults]

my assumption is millions of years

[@Lurch524]

Ned is indeed the dark lord Satan himself, who trapped Phil in this time loop until Phil finally bought his insurance. Phil never once bought the insurance from Ned until the very end of the movie and then finally when Phil got the insurance the time loop ended.

My god, the whole time it was simply a scheme from the devil himself to self insurance; what a terrifying monster Ned is!

Its worse when you remember he didn't have any instant resets he really did live the same day back up to that moment to get the right answer with the girl. It just didnt show him repeat each step exactly the same. He didn't just hate his job he hated that town specifically and the event. He was forced to relive the day he hated most until he broke the cycle by becoming a better person. He grew to love the town and grew to be genuinely nice to everyone. No idea how long he was actually trapped for though

[@ErikDaniel7777]

the amount of time spent reliving the day is interesting. i believe the first script was like 10,000 years or some shit. I think the most solid answer from Harold Ramis was it was maybe about 10 years. I tend to think it's a bit more and either way, a long fuckin time and crazy to think about. Just thinking how long each act would have taken. 3 quick ones is, learning to ice sculp. from no knowledge to a msater sculpter, how long wouldd that take?!? 2, go from being tone deaf to playing piano like ray charles. 3, knowing everything about everyone in town. The montage of him killing himself makes a lot more sense and also feels more dark when you actually think how long Phil was stuck there. Side note. It has been called the most spiritual hollywood movie. here is an excerpt from an article touching on it. “Groundhog Day”, as an expression, has become shorthand for the concept of spiritual transcendence. As such, the film has become a favorite of some Buddhists who see its themes of selflessness and rebirth as reflections of their own spiritual messages. In the Judeo-Christian tradition, it has been seen as a representation of purgatory. “Connors goes to his own version of hell, but since he’s not evil it turns out to be purgatory, from which he is released by shedding his selfishness and committing to acts of love,” wrote Jonah Goldberg. “Meanwhile, Hindus and Buddhists see versions of reincarnation here, and Jews find great significance in the fact that Connors is saved only after he performs mitzvahs (good deeds) and is returned to earth, not heaven, to perform more.” It has even been described by some religious leaders as the “most spiritual film of our time”. “The curse is lifted when Bill Murray blesses the day he has just lived,” wrote the critic Rick Brookhiser. “And his reward is that the day is taken from him. Loving life includes loving the fact that it goes.” sorry for the length.

[@davidr1050]

Originally, Harold Ramis had said 10 years, but later revised it to 30. So for 30 years..... Every day.... Phil woke up exactly where he was knowing exactly what was going to happen EVERYWHERE around that town. --- Me, I would have rented a car and gotten the hell out of there. Gone as far away as possible and see what happens at 6am ...

The way Phil says "today is tomorrow; it happened" at the end always gets to me. Bill Murray conveyed a TON of emotion in that simple line. Knowing how he was reliving that day for *years* and suddenly found himself in the next day... imagine the emotions going through his head at that moment.

'Back in the day...' when there weren't streaming services, and a channel(s) would play something, no matter when, they may program it to play in the middle of the night... there was a line people sometimes used to describe such flicks: "...no matter what I'm doing, whenever (flipping channels) I would come across this playing, no matter where in the movie it is, I would just stop and sit back and watch... right to the end." Another term was 'comfy blanket'.This would be such a flick. So glad to see you enjoy this gem.

[@Jskew]

Great reaction guys, I honestly love this movie. Just so you know the town where they filmed this has a huge festival every Groundhog Day and people dress up like the characters, some of the cast members sometimes show up, and there are complete strangers just acting out scenes in costume at the locations. I think what Phil really had to do to move on was to sincerely care and do for others instead of himself. Also, Rita fell for him when he wasn't chasing her but showing who he had become as a person. I worked in hospitality (waiter, bartender) for 15 years and I always taught the new staff to talk with people not at them. Don't use scripting but personalize each experience with your guests and you take care of them like it was your family that you were taking care of. You must have a desire to take care of people. You can never fake realness. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

Bill Murray established the "Classic Bill Murray Era" with "Meatballs," and it took off from there. Also contributing to Classic Murray are: "Caddyshack," "Stripes," "Ghostbusters," "Little Shop of Horrors" (just a cameo, but still...), "Scrooged," "Ghostbusters II," "What About Bob," and "The Man Who Knew Too Little." The other movies he's made feel more like filler. Well, to me. Others may have differing opinions. But by all means, you should really watch the ones I've listed.

He's done a lot more ensemble casts since then, and supporting parts, with directors he likes. Once he got to choose his projects, he got more selective. I hear he actually spends a lot of his time teaching and in charity events (if he isn't playing golf).

[@alwayswrite2011]

@@jamiestreet3108 As a matter of fact, I have not. I don't even remember a trailer for it. But if I had to take a guess, once I saw that Randy Quaid was in it, my mind said, "Welp... Never gonna see THAT one." The reason being that I find Randy Quaid dumb. Just dumb. Annoyingly dumb. And, yes, I'm sure that limits me from seeing Bill Murray shine in yet another Bill Murray masterpiece, but I embarrassingly feel rather strongly in my dislike for Quaid. EDIT: Just saw the poster while looking up more details. I've seen PARTS of the movie, but was never able to commit. It's probably the Quaid thing.

Careful about Ned. That's Dallas born actor Stephen Tobolowsky that was lead singer for a Dallas group called 'A Cast of Thousands' in the early 70's which recorded 2 songs on a local Dallas band compilation album, 'A New Hi Dallas 1971 - Part 1'; "Red, White and Blue" and "I Heard a Voice Last Night". The album is now a priceless Collectors Item... not necessarily because of Tobolwsky, but the two songs that our boy "Ned" sings lead on is the first know recording of their 16 year old guitar player.

In an original draft of the script it was said that Phil was stuck in the loop for 10,000 years. Ramis, the director once said that it was 10 years, but there have actually been people who tried to work out the math by calculating how long it would take the average person to perfect that many skills and memorize every event in the town. The estimate come to just over 30 years.

[@aleatharhea]

Regarding your point about practicing something a little bit and not long hours when you're first learning: I took a course in piano pedagogy in college (teaching piano), and I learned that practicing for only 15 minutes each day is effective, whereas practicing for an hour every four days is not. In other words, cramming doesn't work. Consistency is the thing. I've also learned that if you learn something right before you go to sleep, you retain it better. Your subconscious explores it while you sleep. So if you have to cram, then get a good night's sleep.

[@OctoKrool]

The beauty of learning is that it's different for everyone, sadly people are taught constantly that there's only one way; but realistic we all learn in different ways and once we discover the method which works best for us we can start to truly enjoy learning!

Groundhog day is a version of Catholic purgatory. A person is stuck between heaven and hell until he attains forgiveness and ascends to heaven.

[@zachharris3040]

The town this was filmed in, Woodstock, Illinois, has a celebration and prognostication every Groundhog Day with its own groundhog. There are a bunch of other events like a free showing of this movie at the local theater, ice (actually might be wood if I recall) sculpting/carving in the town park square, a toast to world peace where vermouth with a twist is served and drinkers get a commemorative groundhog day shot glass. In 2019 the actor who played ned ryerson was there and did a Q&A and was just around celebrating. They have tours of the town where things were shot, including the bed and breakfast which actually is one in real life. The town is pretty cool and has a few notable figures who have lives there. Orson Welles lived there before he got big and the creator slash writer of dick tracy lived there for decades. Part of trains planes and automobiles was also shot there. Basically right next to the small local theater (not an AMC or regal, much quainter) where they do the free showing of groundhog day is a cool ass mural which stretches an entire alleyway with depictions of the previously mentioned people and cool shots of groundhog day stuff.

That was the BEST reaction on this internet circle I've seen to this wonderful film Groundhog Day. You guys really (finally) got all the comedy courtesy of the comedic genius Bill Murray - working brilliantly in tandem with his friend and partner-in-crime, the late writer/director of this film Harold Ramis. Murray's costar in Ghostbusters. Surely heaps of Murray's work here was improv. And Ramis obviously went with it. Abd I think you guys got the romance too Will watch this reaction again I'm sure

According to a fan theory, the amount of days in the time loop that Phil endured lasted about 3,994 days; which is equivalent to 10 Years, 11 Months, 1 Week, 2 Days, 3 Hours, 53 Minutes and 20 Seconds, which is a very long time..

[@bach5150]

most theory places it between 30 to 50 years. they say it takes at least 20 years to become a master sculpter. and who knows how long it was before he decided to even take that skill up. add piano lessons. another 10,000 hours. and clearly it was a long time before he even started to learn these skills after a long bout with depression... i figure at least 40 to 50 years.

You have exactly the same thoughts that i had after watching the movie... gotta love it. :D It's an all-time favourite for me.

Great reaction to an absolutely classic movie guys. I agree. It just looks like a zany old goofball comedy from the cover... and it is. But it is also a masterpiece of a film.

He was punished for being a jerk, and didn’t get out of the loop until he made up for it and learned to put others first. It’s a redemption story. I was laughing so hard when you guys hated Ned. I couldn’t wait for the punch to come.😂🤣
