Bill Murray is more or less condemned to repeat the day until he get's everything right. It finally gets where he sort realizes what's going on. Every time he screws up, he knows he's just going to wake up again on Goundhog Day. And you're right, it's a very good movie.

I have to disagree. The Terminator, at least the first one, is more of a time paradox movie. If Sarah Conner hadn't of met Kyle Reese originally, then who was the father of John who led the revolution? But John couldn't exist without Kyle Reese making jiggy with Sarah, right? That's what I've always wondered about.

I like the SG1 episode where some aliens set them up to relive situations from their past over and over and over.

The Final Countdown,
U.S.S. Nimitz goes back in time a few days before Dec 7, 1941. We get to see just how good F-14's are against Mitsubishi Zero fighters. And how to take out a helicopter with a flare gun.
If I could go back in time I would not buy Imperium Galactum, or Moo3, and use the money saved to waterproof Atrocities's house.
Yeah I'll second that 12 Monkeys also.

This is not a time issue, but it is something I have thought about. Total Recall, I wish they had done a sequel because I don't know if he was in the chair the whole time, or if he was a "spy", I think they did a great job of fooling me, well I was caught completly off guard with the Sixth Sense also so maybe its just me.

there was another sg1 time loop one. very funny. ti'lk and o'neal live the same day over and over and over again for 2-3 months. minor spoiler: one second after time loops, ti'lk gets hit in the face with a door.
