Groundhog Day is just something fun. No one actually thinks the little guys and predict the weather, Also, if you are reliving the same day-to-day life, getting up, going to work, going home, going to bed, getting up, going to work....blah blah blah, we might say we are live a Groundhog Day, but it is a direct reference to this film. That wasn't a saying before this film.
Groundhog Day is a lighthearted "holiday" whereby a groundhog predicts whether spring will come early based on whether he sees his shadow, is scared by it, and goes back in his den. If he does, winter will drag on. In other words, you want a cloudy day on Groundhog Day so he doesn't see his shadow.
It comes from a Germanic folk festival but few people know anything about it.
The original script not only had an explanation for Phil's timeloop, but also how he escaped from it.
I can't remember the exact reason they removed it, but I'm SO glad they did! The movie wouldn't be half as good or as memorable if everything got explained!
Groundhogs are a kind of large rodent, about the size of a rabbit, that hibernate or "go to sleep" during winter, when they come out of their hole in the spring they either ""see their shadow" and go back to sleep which "tradition" means there will be 6 more weeks of winter, or they do not see their shadow and the tradition says that in such a case we will have an early spring It's an excuse for people to get together and have a large party after being stuck inside during the long harsh, cold winter.
I tell everyone that I watch Groundhog Day for the wonderful story, but I really watch it just to gaze at Andie MacDowell. 😍😍
Fun reaction, thanks!
Bill Murray has a way of portraying both despicable and endearing characters through his comedy.
I wonder how disorienting it must have been for Phil going forward. For the first time in decades he doesn't know what will happen next, and for the first time in decades if he dies, he actually dies. He would have to regain his natural instinct for self preservation.
I love this movie! I watched it so many times. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Lots of movies back then didn’t need an explanation, it leaves it open to interpretations
Cheers✌
I really enjoyed this reaction 😊. A former coworker of mine was an extra in this film. She is wearing a white winter coat and dancing in the crowd just before the groundhog is brought out.
I like to think Groundhog Day scenario is entirely random and can happen anywhere, to anybody, any time. It has no set reason or lesson, it just consumes.
Great Movie. . Fun fact the mayor of the town is Bill Murray real brother. Also there was suppose to be a scene that there was a witch who cursed Phil but they decided not to put it in and leave it open. Other great time travel movies are Frequency 2000 and The Butterfly Effect 2004
I love "Frequency."
Before this film, Groundhog Day was simply the celebration on February 2. If the groundhog sees his shadow there is another six weeks of winter (hint: the groundhog always sees it's shadow be cause the first day of spring is 6 weeks after Feb 2). The day is just an excuse to have a party during the long slog of winter. This film introduced the concept of Groundhog Day meaning a perpetual repetition of events.
The original concept was that Phil spent 10,000+ years in the time loop, but we'll never know how long (although it would take at least 35 years or so to learn everything he did). The loop stopped not because he loved Rita, he loved her from the instant he saw her playing with the blue screen, but because Rita finally fell in love with him.
My dad liked to say, "If the groundhog sees his shadow, it means 6 more weeks of winter. If not, it's only a month and a half."
21:53 this part always makes me tear up, the bgm and Bills "Breath pop Breath.
Hi if you ever re-watch this movie in your spare time it gets better and better. Every little detail makes more sense. It's as close to a perfect movie as you will ever get. And supposedly he spent like 300 years there!
Thought it was only 30 something yrs.?
Most people 'agree' that its more like 30-50 based on what he did, said, learned etc.
Generally people think decades, I think the director said over 10 years when he was asked to speculate. Centuries? Not sure about that...
The meaning of "groundhog day" as "repeating the same things over and over" was a result of this movie. It didn't precede the movie.
My father used to make fun of the day by saying, "If the groundhog sees his shadow on Groundhog Day, it means winter will last another six weeks. If he doesn't, it's only a month and a half."
The time loop was because he had no life insurance. When he bought life insurance from Ned he broke the loop.
The "science" behind the origins of groundhog's day... when winter is still in full force, the winds out of the far north are dry and cold, so skies are usually clear. As the seasons begin to change, most air from the south collides with the colder air, clouding the skies.
Therefore, clear sunny skies = 6 more weeks of winter, cloudy skies = winter is over.
For many generations, Groundhog Day was about the rodent predicting if we will have a long winter or early spring. It wasn't until this movie came out that Groundhog Day came to mean living the same day over and over again. Nowadays, more people know of this movie's meaning more than they know about the traditional meaning. It's a good example of how times change.
"Anything different is good." This line is profound on many levels.
"Groundhog Day", "A Christmas Carol" and "It's A Wonderful Life" all show a miserable man learning to appreciate life, his own life and other people. Redemption stories never get old!
This movie is a PHIL-osophical fable, just two life lessons I got are...."If you don't grow you are doomed to repeat the same day". & "You never wake up tomorrow, so might as well make the most of today". ;-) Now that you watched this movie, you MUST watch "EDGE OF TOMORROW". (Groundhog Day on STEROIDS)
I like that the movie didn't explain how or why the loop happened. There are different opinions on how many years the loop lasted. Maybe the loop ended because Phil became selfless and/or Rita fell in love with him of her own free will. Great reaction. Thanks.
"We'll what if there is no tomorrow, there wasn't one today!"
Now you guys understand 😂 Phil cannot leave bc of the snow storm 🌨️ but why can’t I meet a beautiful girl like Rita too…
Lost in Translation is a different but lovely film with Bill Murray and scarlet Johansson - check it out
a favorite movie of mine. It will be a classic. I like just the question itself, "what would you do with eternity?"
Phil became a better person by becoming better in every way. He actually had a change of heart, feelings and consideration for others. Maybe he realized that not saving the homeless man earlier was his fault. And he need to make changes. Because he did this, he was allowed to conntinue with this new good life. Very much enjoyed your reaction.
It wasnt just the Homeless man. He was allowed to pass, only when he really became Honest, and Selfless. When he enjoyed helping others, and never expected anything in return, for himself. Why he changed, would be a lot more speculative. Phil, as stated himself... didnt even like himself. And if you dont like yourself... others are typically not going to like you either. Over the course of advancing his knowledge and skills... and growing as a person... he would have changed internally, to start to value and respect himself. And once that happened... he started looking well beyond his own little bubble... and into the lives of others. Surely, as he had more and more positive interactions... due to his new internal changes... he was rewarded with a great feeling of goodness and satisfaction, within his heart.
But before all of that, he was still stuck in his old ways... thinking about the best ways to "Hook Up", "Get Rich Quick", and even attempting to end the life.. that he never really fully enjoyed much, in the first place. Its only when he exhausted these options... and realized that Self Pity wasnt going to change things... that he decided to put some effort into various other things / options.
I think one of the more Important messages within the film, is the idea that a Single good man, can make a world of different in many peoples lives. And that being such a man, provides its own rewards. Phil was seen as being completely Alone, Self Hating, and mostly Miserable... when he was still within his own toxic Narcissistic mindset.
At first, he kept failing to sleep with Rita, - and fails to break the loop -- because he kept trying to be a perfect man.
Finally, he gives up on that, and instead, tries to be a genuinely “better man.”
I grew up not far from Punxsutawney. It was nice.
Hello TLG Movie Kids!😊 Great reactions to this classic comedy, Kids!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏
30 years passed in the movie roughly the director or producer wanted over 100 years
1:00 Groundhog Day is a holiday when they take the groundhog out and “ask if it seen it shadow and it answers back yes or no” and that says if we have a longer winter or not. It’s just for fun, nobody really believes it it’s just for fun cause Ofcourse animals don’t talk… the act of something happening over and over has NOTHING to do with Groundhog Day, the movie just so happens to been based on that day so named it that. Déjà vu is what we call something happening that we seen before in a dream reoccurring which this movie isn’t exactly about that either… more he stuck in a time loop on Groundhog Day… ANYBODY saying that being stuck in a time loop or déjà vu is Groundhog Day is merely referencing this movie when saying it saying ITS LIKE GROUNDHOG DAY just without saying LIKE
It's not an overly celebrated holiday. Most store bought calendars probably don't even acknowledge it. I think you gave more attention to it's existence in this video than most American's have their whole life.
Nancy Taylor 😍
The idea of Groundhog Day meaning something repeats over and over comes from this movie it was not a thing before this
"People also like Blood Sausage, people are idiots"
Exactly.
Blood pudding is clearly superior.
Why did the old man always recognize him? Why did he die in different ways? Why did phil call him dad and pop? Why does the bartender seem to know something? Some math folks on the net seem to calculate, for him to get good at everything he did, plus know people's histories, and know the town so well, and everyone know him, he was in this loop over 30 years. I say, 2 things had to happen. 1. A completely unselfish and happy day. 2. Rita had to give all she had, because she WANTED to be with him.
The doctor guy, Harold Ramis. Lots of writing producing directing acting etc., movies with Bill. Such as Stripes, Ghostbusters 1-2, and others.
It was a story originally written, very dark, and him being in the loop like 10,000 years!😮😮😮 Harold Ramis and Ivan Reitman, reworked it to make it a bit funny!
But u must ask urself? Did he really leave the loop completely? He's staying with rita, in the town he knows everything about, he's going to live there, everyone else knows him extensively...also watch his movie, Scrooged! or worse thought, what if he became the owner or master of his own loop, and now everyone else is in it?😮😮
The real trick is this, the story was written long ago, and much darker. It's a psychology study. Think of every character in this, on screen longer than 3-4 minutes. They all have very distinct and different personalities. Who are u? Hannah is unchanged start to finish, like Rita. And Ashe? Just go back and listen to his comments because he is very much bad Phil!
Groundhog Day is a very minor American holiday. And a rather silly one at that.
It ranks up there with Arbor Day. Well beneath Secretaries Day.
it would take me several thousand iterations to really commit any crime. i'm a bad person but i'm afraid of consequences
It's Groundhog Day!!
The second meaning of ground hog comes from this movie.
This movie could have been set on any day I guess they chose Groundhog day for some jokes the writers had in mind.
“I might kill someone” lol…
this is one time tv doesn't the capture the excitement, of a rat predicting the weather.. 😂😂😂
@ 5:03....the curse starts.
Where is the girl that used to react on this channel always?
The fact "Black Friday" is known as an American holiday is a little sad. Lol 🤦♂️
Consider reacting to Bill Murray's 1988 comedic Christmas movie "Scrooged".
Bill Murray has done some great heartfelt movies. Check out Scrooged!
This is one of my favorites. If you like this, check out some of Bill Murrys other films, like Ghostbusters, Stripes, and Scrooged. Also, an even funnier and charming movie: "Bedazzled".
I highly recommend it. Its one that seems to have flown under many peoples radars... and its a shame, because its truly fantastic.
"The Man Who Knew Too Little" was one of his funniest.
When editing your videos I would highly recommend going onto the 'color' tab or whatever part edits the colors on your camera and turning down 'highlights' all the way, try it and thank me later (do this before any edits)
Black sausage = blood cooking into a sausage.
the director says he was doing this for 30-40 yrs
The word groundhog doesn't mean doing the same thing but it is the theme of this movie. And Thanksgiving is the holiday not black Friday which is the next day. But I like her answer about doing the same thing lol sex. Like the way she things
Groundhog Day is my Birthday 😀
It was also my grandfather's.
I enjoyed this review of this film.
I live like 45 minutes of this town ❤😂
I love you guys!
Never heard of Groundhog Day because it’s not important. It’s not a national holiday. And it is only important to people in certain parts of the country. To everyone else it’s meaningless.
🥳
How Many Days Does Bill Murray Spend Stuck In Groundhog Day? Look that up on YT.
the original screenplay is the answer
Phil is in Purgatory (First day statement "What the Hell?"); Ned is the Devil [Orange Feather in hat (a horn); "Watch that first step, its a doozy" (Phil falling into Hell); Ned trying to sell Phil Life Insurance (Contract with the Devil for his soul)]; the Bartender is God; and Rita is an Angel.
What about the groundhog?
Rita like him, so he must be from her side of the fence - but not yet sure of his position in the hierarchy. @@andrescastro5520
Guys reaction to house of the dragon,its great ❤❤❤
I think you need to look up groundhog day because it doesn't mean nothing about what you just said
"Groundhog day" doesn't mean getting stuck in a repeating loop?
@@yt45204 that's what I mean cuz in the beginning before the movie started he said groundhog Day means getting stuck in a loop and that's what I said what I said
REACT TO(THE KING) MOVIE
How old your sister
3:27 _"Is he gay?"_ 😂😂
My theory, when Phil is first given the choice to either return to town or stay there and freeze to death, Phil stayed and froze. From then on, he is going through his own personal afterlife. Repeating that day helped change him to a better soul.
Very interesting.
I have a hunch you may be overthinking the movie. It's about a self-centered man getting punished by the universe until he genuinely, honestly becomes a better, selfless person. At the beginning of his journey he was a fake and still only thinking of what this godlike ability could do for him (money, women, fame, etc.) by using people. He did not truly care about Rita and she could sense it. Then he had an epiphany after many years of being stuck in a loop that he could do good things for others without thinking of himself. Then he could simply love Rita honestly, and the universe rewarded him and finally released him.
@@dan_hitchman007 you essentially described the same thing, only in my description he died in the blizzard. I don't think him dying is overthinking anything.
@@greenpeasuit But he didn't die at the beginning. There is nothing particularly religious or spiritual about this film. The story is a simple morality play. A bad guy (an obnoxious jerk) gets his comeuppance until he learns the error of his ways and is then allowed to continue his life much improved with someone he can love honestly. He's not dead at the end either. Phil is just a better individual than where he started. Everything is simply amplified for comedic effect.
Have you ever seen a Pud-Pooth?
Great Movie. . Fun fact the mayor of the town is Bill Murray real brother. Also there was suppose to be a scene that there was a witch who cursed Phil but they decided not to put it in and leave it open. Other great time travel movies are Frequency 2000 and The Butterfly Effect 2004
