Sitting here and watching The Simpsons episode "Trilogy of Error" and the plot is really similar to the 1998 movie Run Lola Run (Lola Rent) Maybe Matt Groening is a fan of that movie? 
Anyone else here thinks the same, or is there more movies similar to Run Lola Run out there.... If it is I would  love to hear what titles, because I really like that kind of plot

The episode is actually a parody of the movie, "Go," but the segment Lisa's Day is based on"Run Lola Run." So I guess you can say it's the best of both worlds. "Trilogy of Error" is actually one of my favorite episodes and in my opinion it's very well written, because of all the interweaving of plot points and character development.

The TV-Series "7 Days" had a Run Lola Run-styled epsode.
2nd season, 14th episode: Deja Vu all over again
