Primer (2004)

My favorite movie about time travel is Back to the Future, but the movie that I think did time travel best is Primer. If time travel works, it’s probably like that.

scytale,

Edge of Tomorrow.

Live. Die. Repeat.

Edge of Tomorrow 2 when

ProjectPatatoe,

Iirc, edge of tomorrow 2 cant happen according to source material.

echodot,

They are doing one though. Which also confuses me as well

The Time Traveler's Wife is an interesting twist on things, including free will. I haven't seen the series version.

That isn’t Back to the Future?

Star Trek: First Contact (1996)

roofuskit,

Solid choice. I’ve shown this one to non-trekkies who haven’t seen TNG and they really enjoyed it even as a stand alone movie.

grue,

Hot take: Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home > Star Trek: First Contact

reddig33,

Time After Time. Somewhere In Time.

Doctor Who, c’mon, people!

TurnItOff_OnAgain,

Waaaay to far down the list.

It’s new who day tomorrow too! We get to see the toymaker and the next regeneration!

gregorum, (edited )

About to watch it now!

Edit: it was amazing!

Idiocracy

Crashumbc,

Not time travel but a good movie.

Valmond,

Well he travelled forward in time :-)

Goodnight Sweetheart is just the best.

Somewhere in Time, which someone already mentioned. I wish I liked it more, but it gets credit because the Jack Finney book Time and Again, which it is very loosely inspired by, is one of the best time travel stories ever.

And Continuum. Not because it’s the greatest, but no one had mentioned it yet, and this thread could be a great reference for anyone in the future. No pun intended.

Remmock,

While “The Butterfly Effect” was all right, Erased (both the anime and the live action series) really polished the concept and ran with it. It’s very rare for me to have praise for a live-action version of anything anime, but it gives strong S1 Stranger Things vibes while being incredibly different.

it isn't time travel, but Counterpart is a very similar trip.. incredible cast and story..

Phenomenal

Groundhog Day.

Crashumbc,

Is this time travel though?

Pumafred9,

Easier to put it in the ‘time travel’ genre than the ’ divine intervention until you get things completely the way things should be’ genre.

olafurp,

He travels back it time one day once per day.

masquenox,

It’s an anti-time travel movie. Soooo… I guess it counts.

kromem,

Future Man (2017-2020) is silly and fun, but actually surprisingly smart with its handling of time travel.

Udonezo,

That show confused the crap outta me. They did their best to make the MC seem completely worthless. And it felt like the writers were straight ripping on the target audience the whole time. Look no further than the opening scene to know what I mean

SendMePhotos,

Dude this ended up being one of my favorites. It is crude humor and just a blast to watch. The character development is there and the story progress is fantastic to watch unfold. It was surprisingly delightful in all aspects.

The first 2 seasons of Travellers were really good. The 3rd was fine. They had to wrap up the story after getting cancelled and, as usual with that sort of thing, it felt a bit strained and rushed.

Zidane,

Fuck yes, recently binged this and it was fantastic.

sik0fewl,

I'm just happy they were able to wrap it up. They still did a better job than most series.

Bishma,
@Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Very true

Hugin,

My favorite time travel show or movie. After repeated re watches it holds up really well.

sik0fewl,

Terminator 2.

A perfect movie.
