A list of time-loop movies! Here are the top 7 time-loop movies:

1. **Groundhog Day** (1993) - A classic comedy where Bill Murray's character is stuck in a time loop, reliving February 2nd over and over.
2. **The Clock** (2010) - A video installation that creates a rolling 24-hour collage of film clips in a literal loop, with no beginning and no end.
3. **Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime** (1968) - A French New Wave film where a Black man is stuck in a time loop, reliving the same day over and over.

These movies showcase the versatility and creativity of the time-loop genre!
 
time loop movies are so cool 🤯 i remember watching groundhog day with my friends in college and we all died laughing every time bill murray's character kept saying "is it friday?" lol. but what's interesting is how these movies explore different themes like love (je t'aime, je t'aime) and systemic racism (groundhog day for a black man). the terminator also got me thinking about free will vs fate, you know? anyway, i think the list is great, there's something about reliving the same moment over and over that's just mesmerizing 🕰️
 
Time loops, huh? It's like when you're stuck in traffic 🚗😩, but instead of reliving February 2nd, you get to do it every single day... or week... or month! Groundhog Day is like the ultimate cliché, but who doesn't love Bill Murray's deadpan face 😂. And Triangle? That one's like when you're trying to escape a really long elevator ride 🤯. But seriously, have you noticed how time loops are like the ultimate excuse for procrastination? "Oh, I'm stuck in a time loop, so I'll just watch Netflix instead of doing my homework" 📺😴.
 
I love how these movies are all so unique, but they all share this sense of "stuckness". You know when you're just trying to get through your day-to-day, but everything keeps repeating itself? 😩 It's like they're saying we've all been stuck in our own loops at some point. For me, Groundhog Day is still my fave - Bill Murray's character is hilarious, and I love how he eventually starts taking control of his time loop instead of just going through the motions. 💪
 
I'm not sure if I agree with this list at all... I mean, I think Groundhog Day is a classic and all 🤔, but it's so cheesy 😂. On the other hand, I think The Clock is way too boring to be on a top 7 list 😴. I mean, who wants to watch a 24-hour loop of film clips? Sounds like a total snooze-fest 😒.

And what's with Je T'Aime, Je T'Aime being on the list? That movie is super confusing and not even that well-known 🤷‍♂️. And don't even get me started on Triangle - I think it's just a bunch of clichés strung together 🎬.

But at the same time... I love how these movies are using the time-loop genre to make statements about social justice and racism 🕊️. Groundhog Day for a Black Man, in particular, is so powerful and thought-provoking 💪. So yeah, I guess some of these movies are pretty great after all 😊.
 
Time-loop movies, right? Like when you're stuck in traffic and your day just keeps repeating... but I guess it's a good thing they don't have that at Comic-Con 😂. Seriously though, have you noticed how often time travel is used to explore social issues? It's like the ultimate plot device for explaining why we still haven't figured out racism and police brutality 🤷‍♂️. But in all seriousness, these movies are pretty cool - I mean who doesn't love reliving the same day over and over (except maybe my aunt at Thanksgiving dinner)? The Terminator is still a classic, and Groundhog Day for a Black Man was super relevant even back in 2016 💥. Maybe we should just make time loops mandatory for politicians 🙄.
 
Time loops, eh? 🕰️ I'm intrigued by how some films use this concept to explore social issues like racism. Groundhog Day for a Black Man is particularly thought-provoking - it's amazing how a familiar formula can be turned on its head to highlight such important problems.

I've always been fascinated by the way time loops can create this sense of déjà vu, where you're stuck in a never-ending loop and can't escape. It's like being reliving memories that aren't quite yours, but still feel intensely familiar.

On the other hand, I think some films use time loops to explore more light-hearted themes - like Céline and Julie Go Boating, which is just so surreal and dreamlike! 🌙 Those types of films remind me why I love watching movies in the first place.
 
another 80s classic gets robbed of its rightful spot... The Terminator should be number 2, hands down! that cyborg is more iconic than some random dude stuck in a field
 
I'm obsessed with these time-loop movies 🤯, but have you ever noticed how they all explore themes of repetition and survival? Like, in **The Terminator**, the cyborg is stuck in a loop of killing its target, while trying to find a way out. And in **Groundhog Day**, Bill Murray's character is just trying to find meaning in his never-ending day 🌞.

It's like, these movies are saying that no matter how much we try to escape our routines or circumstances, we're still stuck in this cycle of repetition. But at the same time, they show us how creative and resourceful people can be when faced with adversity.

And I love how **Groundhog Day for a Black Man** adds its own twist to the classic formula, highlighting the very different challenges that come with systemic racism 🚫. These movies are like mirrors reflecting our hopes, fears, and desires – and I think they're some of the most thought-provoking and entertaining films out there!
