That's 34 years' worth of days!

Groundhog Day (1993)
I’m sorry, repeating the title of the movie already listed in the TIL doesn’t reach the standard of proof required to convince anyone that it was exactly XYZ number of lived days. Unless your source specifically (external to the movie) states that the movie states that it was XYZ number of days, you aren’t helping.
I apologize. I did not realize the seriousness of the situation. I will refrain from any further light-hearted jokes.
Would have been funnier if you just replied "Groundhog Day (1993)" again.
I now see that you may have been trying to be funny, an “/s” may help us better to recognize your jokes in the future. Thank you for your contribution.
You forgot your /s
I was being honest.
I do not enjoy you as a human being

Oh wow you're a blast at a party.

Ramis originally said it was around 10 years of repeated days but later changed to 30-40 years. https://collider.com/groundhog-day-time-loop/
Thank you. It reminds me of All You Need Is Kill, or the Edge of Tomorrow. In these kinds of movies they absolutely gloss over the massive amounts of time between the first repetition and the one that breaks the loop. Because, 90% of that is nothing, while %10 is incremental growth toward the break. Everyone’s played a game like a ‘souls like’, chess even, or a card game, and it takes hundreds of repetitions* to get slightly better. All I Need Is Kill does a good job of painting that picture, and The Edge of Tomorrow does a somewhat decent job of portraying that for cinema (they really should have kept the number count on his hand to subtly and fully express the time frame here). Honestly, for the movie, Groundhogs Day, we probably only see about 15-30 reps. But, the viewer can imagine significantly more. Same with something like the Apple+ show Black Matter, at the end of the season we’re led to believe what we saw as a dozen or so universes is now thousands, and it makes sense after the curtain is lifted.
Memorizing every little detail of everyone's lives and actions that day always seemed incredible to me. I assumed he lived that day hundreds of thousands of times. Meaning centuries spent repeating the same day.
At least that's what I imagine it would take, for me to try countless methods of suicide.
