What would make you want to move to america/canada respectively and what would make you not want to?

bonus question for vongore:
would you rather live in the states or canada?

I'll answer that from a european perspective, Canada because that's where my girlfriend is from but I'm too socially liberal/economically left for north America anyway, if our government goes on for another term I might think about moving to another european country, maybe Sweden or if I found a job that I can do from anywhere, get a place in Italy that looks out over the Mediterranean sea, enjoy that lifestyle (best food and drink on earth) and ignore politics/economics until the end of my days.

The American continent is beautiful when it comes to nature, I just like to live in older cultures.

Must be nice. Guess I'm a little sore over still living in Arziona, the desert of America. Especially after having visited Monterey and San Francisco this summer.

The parts I saw in cleveland were very nice. It's a lot cleaner and its road system is way better than an old city like philly.

The fact that the movie takes place on groundhog day is irrelevant, it's nothing more than a macguffin for the story.

False, any other holiday and it would be a different movie. Thematically it is consistent with the story. It's a shitty, hokey event that no one takes seriously yet is still reported on every year even though no one cares. That shows how crappy he feels his life is up to that point, he has to go to some stupid town and report some stupid event that no one cares about. Then there is the theme behind the actual event - if the groundhog sees its shadow then there is more winter, if not winter is over. That represents his own shadow which he needs to get away from to start a new life where he can be happy.

Groundhog day is some deep shit.

I'm interpreting it as: "you can be a film major or pretend to know everything about films but film school isn't going to teach you understanding. And it gets annoying when you pretend it does."
