DAE ever watch a movie or show and wonder what exactly you were doing at the moment they filmed a particular scene?

Like on that random Tuesday in 2017, while they were capturing this moment that would be watched for years I was alive too. Saying something, thinking something, maybe doing something completely ordinary. I want to know exactly what.

    No, but this is a fascinating thought

    Oh my gosh I do this all the time, it’s crazy when I think about everything that’s been filmed since I was born. Like I’ve been alive and doing -something – while every scene has been filmed

    No, but I do it for dates identified in a documentary movie/tv show. You know, they put the date on the screen — July 22, 2000 — and I think “I was just a few weeks away from getting married” or whatever the case might be.

    And at any given moment, something is likely being shot that you might someday see. Right now, and at 11:26 tomorrow morning, and next Tuesday there are many films & tv shows filming that we’ll be watching in the future.

    Not this, but when I was younger, I would randomly wonder what strangers in public, who were older than me, were doing on the day I was born. The older I get and there’s more people who are younger than me, the less I think about it anymore.

    I do this ALL the time, with anything. Not just movies. I think about my husband and what I was doing when he was doing something else, before we got married. Or I’ll look at a building and wonder what I was doing when it was built. Or if it was built before I was born, I try and imagine what the people looked like building it, or using it after it was built.

    lol for the show Dexter I’m in the background a few times walking my dogs. When I saw it it triggered this thought. I think it all the time now. What WAS I doing on September 54th when they were filming.

    I will go on IMDb and look up the filming dates and then look at my photo gallery. To coordinate and remember what I was doing at the time. I also will coincide with when the actors were doing red carpets for other movies whilst filming the newer movie. Like I noted the filming dates for Kristen Stewart in Underwater with all her blonde buzzcut appearances and then note when she started to let it grow out. And it matches us with the commencement of filming.

    I’m autistic btw
