Other similar experiments include Cinema 52, where a group of people agreed to watch the same movie, once a week for a year. Top Gun the first year, Back to the Future the second year and Avatar the third year: http://www.cinema52.com/the-experiment/

Also The Lawrence Julie & Julia project where one guy decided to watch the movie Julie and Julia every single day for an entire year: http://www.lawrenceandjulieandjulia.com/

To truly appreciate rewatching they should've watched The Groundhog Day every week for a year. Followed by 50 First Dates!

I've watched Groundhog Day probably 100 times. For six or so months, I left it on repeat on the main house TV (I lived alone at the time).
