the groundhog day project

phil, ralph, and gus exit the bowling alley and get into ralph's car in #GroundhogDay minute 32 and i get confused which rick is gus and which rick is ralph and after this many years of talking about this movie, you'd think i'd remember.

for the record: bigger rick is gus, thinner rick is ralph.

the violence and cuteness of sea otters, lyrics to the background song you probably don't even notice, spectating everyone else's lives, the geography of "punxsutawney", and life itself as a series of mundane activities... #groundhogday minute 31.

local psychiatrist is new at his job and so excited about it; meanwhile, phil turns to alcohol and nostalgia in #groundhogday minute 30.

phil is a dick to strangers, rita (apparently) loves awkward van rides, and the local neuorlogist is bad at his job in #groundhogday minute 29.

who's in the diner right now, get sidetracked by an unavailable deleted scene, then there's a great acting beat from andie, great lines from gus, and phil really should note how like the groundhog he is... #groundhogday minute 28.

in a fairly basic #groundhogday minute 27, phil rushes to gobbler's knob, pushing past ned ryerson, skips his report, and i get into a rant about running and imdb goofs. 

minute 26 of #groundhogday is relatively simple, but this episode gets into the weeds, with input from Rubin, Ramis, Tobolowsky, and me as to whether or not a particular scene was actually shot.

phil can't handle his second report--and neither can larry--there's still no hot water, and telephone company customer service wins by hanging up in #groundhogday minute 25.

phil's going through it and rita is a hands-on producer in #groundhogday minute 24.

phil's an empty suit, ned always be selling, and the pennsylvania polka is a metaphor for the whole #timeloop experience in #groundhogday minute 23.
