Episode 62: Why We Rewatch Media
The onslaught of movie releases from Marvel Studios has come to a lull, so what is there to do in the meantime? The AP Marvel crew of Chris, Anthony, and Sabrina question what the worth is of rewatching MCU movies, or media in general. Is rewatching the familiar a way to soothe the mind? Are we too reluctant to "commit" to new pieces of content? And why does everyone love Love Actually?
