Rewatching

[philstar22]

What was the last movie or show you rewatched? Meaning you'd seen it at least once before and watched it again.


Currently starting a Rizzoli and Isles rewatch.

M*A*S*H, but only because it is on a looped repeat on one of the tv channels. And the most recent adaptation of The Worst Witch, because my littlest niece is a huge fan of that show.

Tiger & Bunny season 1. Twice within a couple weeks because shortly after the first rewatch I got something like a plotbunny and hadn't been paying attention to watch for episodes/scenes with a particular minor character that I wanted to use in it, thus immediate canon review. -_- (Though I mean. Such a chore. Really.)

And then watched episode 1 AGAIN yesterday with my 20-years-younger sib who was curious about it, because when it first came out they were not at all into anime and never heard of it.

Do people not rewatch stuff regularly? I've watched Aliens like 20 times this month. If I can't decide what I want to watch I always default to something I've seen lol. Plus my 'go to sleep' movies.

Stranger Things was something I recently rewatched for the third time.
I have also rewatched in the past (and will do so again) Breaking Bad, Dark, and Barry.

Married With Children.

Pirates of the Caribbean
Nothing to do with the trial, we always put it on to drown out thunderstorms for our dog. I make a giant bowl of popcorn and we all have a movie munching popcorn and lying to our dog that thunder is offscreen cannons and then we toss him more popcorn.

I just finished a Rizzoli and Isles rewatch!!!

Currently working on a Chicago Fire rewatch now.

Re: Rewatching

[tabaqui]

Downton Abbey and several movies I've seen several times in between (Beaches, Moonstruck, etc.).

Currently rewatching SPN. The nostalgia! Not just for the show but, like, THEY USE FLIP PHONES! Sam's old as fuck lap top with STICKERS ON IT! Girls with the shiny lip gloss look and tying shirts over a spaghetti strap stuff!

Just now realizing how long ago 2005-2006 was. Jesus.

It'll be fun revisiting that in the fic I suddenly want to write. Now I have an excuse to have someone angrily snap their phone closed to end a call!

LotR trilogy back at the end of December.

Re: Rewatching

[(Anonymous)]

I've been going back and rewatching the first season of the U.S. version of "Ghosts" the last couple nights :).

Also, "Frasier", but that one's a regular rewatch for me, so...:D.

Re: Rewatching

Been rewatching old British Bake Off and How to Succeed Business.

Granada Holmes. It's every bit as good as when I first saw it all those years ago.

I'm currently doing frequent rewatches of Dredd, but that will wear off in time. It;'s a damn good movie, though.

Yet another fic research question. Books.

[(Anonymous)]

I've got a character in a fic I'm writing who is about eleven years old and they've just moved to the United States with their family; my question is what sort of books would they have been expected to read in school if they'd been raised American, and now need to catch up on? I get that the books American school kids have to read include Charlotte's Web, My Side of the Mountain, Tuck Everlasting, but are there any others they'd need to catch up on as part of the US school curriculum? If anyone can help with this background stuff, you'd be utter superstars. Thank you.

Re: Yet another fic research question. Books.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't know if it's accurate to say that one would need to read them to catch up. Books like those are very widely read by kids, yes, but it's not like kids have to read them, I've never read Tuck Everlasting myself.

Re: Yet another fic research question. Books.

[philstar22]

I don't know for sure, but I think the Giver, the Phantom Tollbooth, Bridge to Terabithia, Number the Stars, the Secret Garden, Where the Red Fern Grows, and Anne Frank are all books that would be read by that point.

Re: Yet another fic research question. Books.

It probably depends on the region, but I grew up in the Midwest near one of the places the Ingalls settled, and the Little House on the Prairie series by Laura Ingalls Wilder was a must-read by that age. Everybody knew of and had read those books. Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls was also big (which is funny because now that I think of it, I never read Old Yeller).

I feel like this is definitely school specific? I can't remember ever having required reading before reaching HS (where we had to read Brave New World (blech) and Catcher in the Rye (ughhhh) and some Shakespeare).

Re: Yet another fic research question. Books.

[(Anonymous)]

I think you might get a variety of answers 'cause as far as I know, there isn't a standardized list of books that all school children in the US need to read. Tuck Everlasting was required reading when I was an eleven year old, but we never read Charlotte's Web or My Side of the Mountain in my class. We read Farewell to Manzanar and Ella Enchanted, plus a whole bunch of poetry (though Maya Angelou's the only one I remember). My best friend was in another class in the same school and she read Farewell to Manzanar, but her class never read Ella Enchanted (I don't remember what book her class read).

[kaijinscendre]

If they are starting at the beginning of the school year, they would not be expected to read or know books from previous years. An 11yo would be in the 6th grade. They MIGHT have had some book that was required reading over the summer but schools are moving away from that.

If they start in the middle of the school year, they might need to catch up on whatever book the class is currently reading.

See the link below for some common books read in 6th grade classes.

What year is this taking place? If it's contemporary, then there's a toon of new books entering the reading list. A few classics on this list (i.e. books before let's say 2007?)

Holes
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry
Walk Two Moons
My side of the mountain
Bud, Not Buddy
Fever
Phantom of the Tollbooth
A Wrinkle in Time
Babysitter's Club (as a series)

You're taking me back! I'm pretty sure I read StarGirl and Downsiders in 6th grade as well (but that was out of my own volition -- avid reader).
