        1. We're watching LOVE WEDDING REPEAT on Netflix because there's nowhere to go and I love time-loop stories (read my essay on Outer Wilds medium.com/@SimonXIX/posthumanism-in-outer-wilds-4d88cd524a03). But we're a significant way in and no element of time-looping has even been introduced.

        Also I'm quite distracted by the antagonist dickhead-at-the-wedding figure being called Mark Fisher like the late cultural theorist. Why that name out of all the names?

      It's so weird that the only character who keeps getting full-named in the dialogue is 'Mark Fisher'. Why have they done this?!

    The film is narrated by someone who sounds like Judi Dench, is known for films starring Judi Dench, but, crucially, is not Judi Dench.

      LOVE WEDDING REPEAT is bad but most egregiously it's not even a time-loop movie. Those reviews which compared it to GROUNDHOG DAY owe me an apology since it's clearly an alternate-timelines story like SLIDING DOORS.
