Movies: Groundhog Day - "He's having the worst day of his life... over, and over...." Lola Rennt / Run Lola Run - "Every second of every day you're faced with a decision that can change your life." The Butterfly Effect - "Change one thing, change everything." Interactive Fiction: Rematch - "An interactive repetition" Novels: Rewind - "To which moment do you wish to be returned?" Games? I really should be able to do better than this, but these are all I can come up with right now. Any additions, anyone?

Movies:
Groundhog Day - “He’s having the worst day of his life… over, and over….”
Lola Rennt / Run Lola Run - “Every second of every day you’re faced with a decision that can change your life.”
The Butterfly Effect - “Change one thing, change everything.”

Interactive Fiction:
Rematch - “An interactive repetition”

Novels:
Rewind - “To which moment do you wish to be returned?”

Games?

I really should be able to do better than this, but these are all I can come up with right now. Any additions, anyone?
