Mine is The Time Machine (2002) by director Simon Wells
Its very good. Its a low budget indie film. Its about two unremarkable engineers who work on toy projects in their garage accidentally discovering a type of time travel similar to the movie Looper. The film follows the realization, experimentation and ultimately the downfall of the engineers due to the power of their own discovery.
Primer is famous for being extremely complex and hard to follow. The characters speak in real engineering jargon, and there’s constant time travel paradoxes happening in the background which you don’t pick up on without multiple viewings.
If you like being intellectually challenged, its great.
Should also be mentioned that the director is a massive POS, which is why I don’t promote the movie even though I like it.
Thank you, director been POS never stopped me from watching or liking the movie/show. I don’t even care for most ratings or reviews. There were many times when rating or review was bad but i loved watching it.
Sometimes I wonder if horrible people can be great storytellers because their outlook on life is so different from our own. That doesn’t excuse or justify their behavior, but still, I wonder.
From 2011 to 2018, Carruth was in a relationship with Amy Seimetz. The couple became engaged in 2013. Seimetz obtained temporary restraining orders against Carruth in 2018 and 2020 and a permanent restraining order in 2020, citing years of domestic and emotional abuse and harassment. Carruth has denied these allegations.
On January 13, 2022, Carruth was arrested at the home of another ex-girlfriend on allegations of domestic assault and vandalism. He was released four days later on a $50,000 bond.
I’ve watched them so much, that when I started to learn english I just started to watch that movie in english, since i knew by hart half of what they were saying
I was worried when this wasn’t anywhere near the top. These aren’t even my favourite time travel movies, they’re my favourite movies, period, and have been since I was 4.
I have given it a 2nd-3rd-4th go, each time with a new friend who hasn’t yet seen it. And, no joke, I still pick up on a TON of details I’ve missed before. It’s just… so good
I’ve only seen it with subs. I have read on an old thread that the dubs are pretty good, but I haven’t given them a shot. Maybe I will try on my 5th watch!
Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is my favorite, but I’ll sit through any of em. I just love those characters, and genuinely try to live my life along the “be excellent to each other” philosophy.
I’ve been a who fan for almost 40 years and didn’t put 2 and 2 together until your comment… feeling elated for the revelation and a bit like a nonce at the same time
I love how casual they approach time travel. It makes no sense, is incredibly inconsistent, and the more you think about it the more you’ll hate it. But it’s a fun series everyone must watch.
Spoilers:
The time travel mechanic literally makes Bill and Ted the only people that matter, ever, in the history of time. The world belongs to Bill and Ted and this is their playground. I love how the characters recognize this in the movies too, so the writers obviously knew their time travel dynamic was goofy.
At least in the first movie:
Only people who can change their future actions that’ll have an impact on the future is Bill and Ted (time traveller who told them to pass a class influenced Bill and Ted to change their future actions)
If someone other than Bill and Ted interacts with a different time, it has effectively zero impact on their future actions and society is largely unchanged (ie stealing Socrates and Napoleon into the present didn’t really affect modern society, and nobody found it weird a blue phone booth existed in the 1700s?!)
Even though Bill and Ted are time traveling, any time they spend time traveling counts against an absolute timeline leading up to their presentation.
I think some of these dynamics changed in the second movie, and again in different ways in the third movie but don’t remember it’s plot enough to defend that claim.
Really enjoyed Looper. It leaves just enough to the imagination to be super interesting. that scene with what they do to the man in the past really stuck with me.
Just didn’t have the same feel to the movie. Maybe if you never seen the movie it might be better. I find most remakes fail without at least some original cast.
