I do this for a few things, movies in particular. For me most recently, I’m planning on watching Bo Burnham’s Inside this weekend, for the first time since I watched it shortly post-release. I wasn’t really intending to wait *checks watch* nearly 3 years on that one, but I definitely felt it needed some space before a rewatch.
Anyone else treat certain pieces of media similarly?
For me it’s Aliens. I hadn’t watched it in probably 15 years and did recently when the 4k version came out.
It was so, so worth waiting for. Watched it with my 3 oldest kids and it was their first time. Amazing time was had by all.
Edit: Oh and this song by Sylvan Esso. I listen to it about once every three months and get goosebumps every time.
