Time Travel

[fred quimby]

One argument people have for not being able to travel back in time is why we don't see people coming back from the future. Well maybe the human race gets wiped out before we ever get the chance to build a time machine.

There's a happy friday afternoon thought.

If you want a complete head fuck of a time-travel film, I suggest you watch Primer.

you say that but what if the machine we built was shiny with lots of flashing lights, levers you could pull, flashing buttons to press, small little windows you could peer through and a lovely whirring sound when you pressed the big green go button.

Surely then it is possible. Yes?

Brilliant film. you have to watch it at least twice and then not work it out

Look at the Grandfather paradox, if you went back in time and killed your Grandfather when he was young, would you have been around to go back in time and perpetrate the crime?

Primer is a fantastic film, created on a low budget too and yeah you definitely have to watch it more than once.

For anyone who wants a laugh regarding Time-Travel, head over to http://www.timetravelinstitute.com/ and check out the Time Travel claims.

It's full of nutjobs claiming to be actual Time Travelers, a few of them have intricate stories to back up their claims... they usually get shot down to smithereens.

how does it compare to films like Frequency and The Butterfly Effect?

I don't think it does really. I prefer Primer. Mind you a while since I watched it. Really has you thinking about what they did and how they did it. As I say had to watch it again to make sure I made sense of it. Second time had me thinking in a different way to the first time I watched it

Primer is such an entertaining romp. Good few loose ends though obv.

[kaosmark2]

Brilliant film. Really well crafted and intriguing.

[feral chile]

Well I'm an hour in and I'm totally confused. I don't just not know what's happening, I don't know what I don't know (if that makes any sense)

It's way beyond my intellect.
