Lemmy, is there a treasured piece of content that you stop yourself from going back to "too often" so as to not dilute it? (lemm.ee)

I do this for a few things, movies in particular. For me most recently, I'm planning on watching Bo Burnham's Inside this weekend, for the first time since I watched it shortly post-release. I wasn't really intending to wait *checks watch* nearly 3 years on that one, but I definitely felt it needed some space before a rewatch.

Anyone else treat certain pieces of media similarly?

[game] Donkey Kong Country 1/2/3
[anime] Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
[anime] Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

The games are part of my childhood, and they aged really well, so if I don't stop myself from playing them all the time the muscle memory kills all the joy from playing.

Same thing with the two anime series - I love both but it has been a few years since I watched either.

Sometimes I feel like I should rewatch FMA B but then I'm like, nah I still remember it perfectly. To me it's just a perfect execution of what a story should be.
