Imagine in the future that we develop a procedure (to the point where it's safe and routine) to erase specific memories from our minds.
Someone capitalizes on this and offers a service to erase all memory of specific movies we've seen. The allows us to go see that movie "for the first time" again!
Seeing the fantastic acting and character development all over again, being in awe of the riveting action sequences, and best of all, not knowing the story; the ending!!
Being able to see movies like Aliens, Terminator, Forbidden Planet or LoTR over and over and over with maximum effect!!!
The unforeseen danger however is that you might not choose to watch it again!
Even if you wrote out a commitment promise to yourself to rewatch any and all movies you've wiped, your mood, health, age and countless other factors could cause you to say "meh" to what was one of your favorite films! That "meh" would ensure it wouldn't be on your rewatch list anymore, and the only memory you'd have of that film would be mediocre at best.
Continue on this path and statistically you'll end up with NOTHING you love anymore. You'll be like some Flying Dutchman critic who is unimpressed with....everything. A fate worse than death! Woe to anyone who might use the process on other aspects of their lives....their first sled ride, their first ice cream cone....their first kiss!
"...To live on as we have is to leave behind joy and love and companionship because we know it to be transitory, of the moment. We know it will turn to ash.
Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal."
