Weird Phenomenon with Movies on TV

Published on November 1, 2004 By JillUser In Movies & TV & Books

Maybe this just happens for me but every time I am flipping through channels I seem to end up catching the same part of a movie. There are some movies that have aired on TV that I have only seen one little part of but I have seen that same one little part over and over again. I know that one part so well that I can recognize the movie from only one or two lines of dialogue. My hubby thinks I just watch movies all the time and doesn't believe me about this phenomenon.

One instance happened this week. Queen of the Damned kept playing and I kept hitting upon it on different channels at the same point when they are about to attack the Queen at the end. This same thing has happened with lots of other movies.

Anyone else ever experience this?

I, the man with media precognition, have experienced this phenomenon... I don't understand it myself, but yes.... it does happen. Only in my case, I always miss the beginning of a movie and catch it at like scene 3-4.....

All the time when I have cable. It is usually on TBS since they replay every movie they get, Over and over and over, Lather, rinse, repeat.

that sometimes happens to me but more often I will borrow a movie that I haven't seen for a long time or at all and then about a week later it comes on television. It's happened more times then I can count.

Tremors.....

I have seen the same section of this movie I don't know how many times. But it's not only a US phenomenom because I have done it here in Korea with Tremors. And a couple other movies too.
