I don’t know, I’d be worried if I did that then it wouldn’t hit the same for me the second time around. Who am I now compared to then? What state of mind am I in? I mean who knows how much a song or a a movie resonates with you has to do with where you are at that time?
Fucking hell I wasn’t prepared for the existential questions when I entered this thread.
Stargate SG-1 TV series
This post reminds me of a friend of mine who likes a song so much, he will only listen to it twice a year, once on New Year’s and once on his birthday. He says each time is like the first time because “the pathways stay fresh”. He’s been consistent for at least 7 years.
If you’re curious: Toccata - OVERWERK
Definitely the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy
I know it’s absolute schlock but I’d give anything to watch Infinity War for the first time again.
I just loved it and still do but man …
Rage Against The Machine self-titled 1992 album
I want to play either Skyrim or Breath of the Wild for the first time again, knowing nothing about what’s out there to be discovered or the limits of the sandbox. Those games cast a special spell in their first few dozen hours before you know where the boundaries of the world are.
Outer wilds.
Konstantine by Something Corporate, maybe.
Star Trek DS9. So much good character development, plus all sorts of twists and turns
Change ‘listen to’ to ‘watch’ and I’ll rewatch Eternal Sunshine for the first time.
I watched that movie knowing absolutely nothing about it going in other than the two leads, and it blew my mind. from that point on i swore off watching trailers and try to know as little as possible about every movie i watch.
Going in completely dark like that can be so damn good. That was how I watched From Dusk till Dawn for the first time. Also Barbarian another great one to go in totally blind.
Would love to experience Hollow Knight again
Counter Strike 1.6. I wish the game never dies.
No one’s said it yet? I guess I’ll do it: Outer Wilds.
Aliens (1986)
