I learned Spanish by watching one movie 50 times (youtu.be)

This seems like overkill to me, but Lamont is speaking very highly of this method. I personally rewatch movies extremely rarely, and the number of movies that I have seen more than once is very small, so the idea of watching one movie 50 times is rather nauseating.

I do, however, concur that re-consuming A/V media in an L2 is beneficial to me, as I noticed that I tend to struggle with correctly interpreting grammar the first time around.

Ah, I haven't looked at the actual learning strategies of refold, I've only seen their flash-card packs (which look good!). I assumed it was more or less a kind of Dreaming Spanish style service with more guidance rather than this style L-R where it seems like you just kind of jump into the deep end a bit with a source you can commit to putting up with.

(Sorry I didn't see your reply till today btw, kbin ate the notification it seems).
