That’s 34 years’ worth of days!
Are we just making up TIL’s, now? There was never an exact number in mind or set when the movie was made. Just “long”.
I asked the Internet. You don’t doubt the Internet, do you?
I also asked and the internet said I was right. And sexy.

I apologize. I did not realize the seriousness of the situation. I will refrain from any further light-hearted jokes.
Would have been funnier if you just replied “Groundhog Day (1993)” again.

I do not enjoy you as a human being
Could’ve added /h then
Oh wow you’re a blast at a party.

Ramis originally said it was around 10 years of repeated days but later changed to 30-40 years. https://collider.com/groundhog-day-time-loop/
Okay, that makes it more understandable that he tried to kill himself, and then mastered the piano and several other things.
I think most people who watched the movie a time or two (or twenty) already knew it was many years that had gone by. What time frame were you imagining? Like 6 months or something?
I couldn’t really say, but certainly not 1-4 decades. I guess I thought it was a year or two.
I think if you would re-watch it now, you’d think to yourself “yeah, thinking it was only a year or two was just silly”
You’re not tricking me into watching that movie for a 47th time! To be fair to me, it was always on broadcast TV when I saw it, so I’d just come in wherever it was in the runtime.
Memorizing every little detail of everyone’s lives and actions that day always seemed incredible to me. I assumed he lived that day hundreds of thousands of times. Meaning centuries spent repeating the same day.
At least that’s what I imagine it would take, for me to try countless methods of suicide.

There are a lot of theories, even from the creators: https://mashable.com/article/how-long-phil-connors-stuck-in-groundhog-day-time-loop
I’m honestly more inclined to agree with longer interpretations, as I’m sceptical that he was enough of a natural at all the skills he demonstrates in the movie to have perfected them all in just 6 weeks
If he was at my level of ability when it came to learning the piano, it would have taking him approximately 700 years to be able to play that song so well at the end.
I’m gonna need a source on that.

That’s karma, handing us the same lessons until we graduate to new ones.
Bill Murray is the original Dr. Strange.
Ned Ryerson, I’ve come for an insurance bargain!
I have not seen this guy for 20 years. He comes up to me and he buys whole life, term, uniflex, fire, theft, auto, dental, health, with the optional death and dismemberment plan, water damage …
Phil?! Phil Conners?!
It was so traumatizing he had to go see Richard Dreyfus for therapy.
