Mine is The Time Machine (2002) by director Simon Wells

Zeroc00l,

Tv show: Tripped a great watch, low-ish budget but very well done. Starts off as kind of a stoner comedy but gets way deeper, while still being fun. Also it’s more of a dimension travel show rather than time travel.

Movie: Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel probably my favourite time travel movie, heaps of fun and the actors & story are great.

Movie: Primer a pretty smart movie, I think the directors (who also starred) were scientists so the story is quite grounded in how time travel would (likely) work out.

Movie: Time Lapse a gripping movie about a camera that can show the future, mostly filmed in one house. A good watch.

TurtsnGurt,

Bodies (2023) on Netflix. I found it in my suggestions and thought the premise was intriguing so I decided to give it a watch. I ended up binging the entire season. It won’t likely get a second season but it seems the writers planned on it just being a one off.

Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut, but that’s a book.

It’s not my favorite ever, but I’m currently watching a weird Canadian, 30 year old-woman-finding-herself comedy drama that is based around a magical therapist who uses time travel in his sessions. It’s called Being Erica and it’s on Hulu. I can’t stop watching it.

Pre-destination. It’s like the grandfather paradox… But different.

tenchiken,

Best choice.

Coherence came out in 2013, and the movie is phenomenal. Such an awesome take on the whole time theory.

+1 was another very good one, and more fun than mine bending, but does a great job tackling it.

I’m currently watching Dark, but enjoying it for sure.

limited_characters,

Primer and Dark are great. I also really enjoyed Tenet.

Dark was neat. Lost interest after season 2 :/

Steins;Gate, the anime.

m.imdb.com/title/tt1910272/

I’ll be rewatching it soon.

Assassin 33 A.D: Black Easter.

It’s a Christian time travel movie where terrorists go back in time to murder Jesus before he can be crucified (therefore preventing Christianity from ever existing) and an atheist skeptic scientist has to go back in time to rescue Jesus, and also rescue his own faith.

The movie is crazy and I love it.

Having never heard of Black Easter, I wrote a brief synopsis, supposing the three magi were Herod’s assassins.

It’s no more far-fetched then current extrapolations regarding the Magi.

BreadOven,

Know what I’m watching on the next movie night.

LillyPip,

Time Trap (2017). It’s a bit campy and a fun watch.

Archer,

I hate that the end of the movie is the beginning of a much more interesting movie! I wanna see it!

ohlaph,

The Time Machine (2002) and the Back to the Future collection.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time!! It’s my favorite anime movie and time travel movie. It wasn’t widely released in the US though so the dvd is EXPENSIVE.

A novella, so against the rules: This Is How You Lose The Time War

Since it’s letters exchanged between adversaries, it’d be rough to translate to visual media.

Cavemanfreak,

Was looking for this! I think a lot of people have missed this one because it’s in spanish, but it’s really good!
