Star Wars: The Last Jedi (Dec 15th, 2017)

Looper makes sense...you have to realize in all time travel films you are seeing multiple realities .....and you cannot hold that the reality your seeing at that moment is in the same timeline as a past or future one.

BTTF showed us this ages ago....

Once you travel in time you can never go back to the original time line......only one that looks like it.

Snikt has a point.

But admittedly I didn’t like the rotational quantum lensing dilation of the Black Hole in the classic Disney film.

Agreed. Looper is a brilliant film.

I didn’t bash the film - I identified parts that are stupid. Not just the time travel, but narratively. As far as it making sense - Johnson himself admits that it doesn’t on the commentary. It’s the “rule of cool” - mileage varies on if it’s successful. But it’s short of brilliant IMO.

I don't think there is a single time travel movie that can stand up to much scrutiny. It's one of those sub-genres you just have to accept when things happen that don't make sense.

I agree. Looper is just the first time I was distracted by the obviously -aggressively - bad logic on first viewing. I’m generally not nitpicky.

You're right.

So getting back on topic:

Rey = The Chosen One (Alpha and Omega), wife/lover of Jedi Master Snoke during the Old Republic

Snoke aka Plagueis aka The Last Jedi = The greatest warrior of the Jedi Order in the Old Republic, who swears allegiance to Ren, The Ancient Fear & becomes the immortal Darth Plagueis The Wise

Kylo Ren aka Benjamin L. Solo = First Grey Jedi to be born in final stage of the Whills' plan to the end the Galactic Conflict. Now fighting for the Light again

Luke Skywalker aka Luke Van Helsing = wants to stay out of the conflict, will play huge role in Snoke's fight against Ren in IX

General Leia Organa = Helps Kylo finish his turn to the Light then dies

Finn = Who Cares?

Poe = Who Cares?

Rose aka modern PC culture/cinematic diversity = Who Cares?

Phasma aka modern femenism in cinema = Who Cares?

DJ aka new Lando = May know the location of Snoke's tomb/vampire coffin

BTTF got time travel wrong though, it showed changes in the present by actions in the past within a single timeline.

Terminator pulls it off because it doesn't show any retroactive changes within the same timeline.

In fact, the other day I was watching DBZ, and it surprised me that they explain time travel correctly; Trunks explains that even by defeating the androids won't change his own future as they're different timelines, so his plan is after defeating the androids in the current timeline, to take Goku into Trunks' own future to have him help against his future's androids.

It's the earliest example of good time travel lore I know of in pop-culture.

Have you seen The Final Countdown (1980)?

I don't remember if it got time travel right, but the film is about a pilot who travels to the day before Pearl Harbor.

37 years ago it was good. ...not bad at all in fact

 

[GasparZizou]

The 80's were almost 40 years ago

Was "Meteor" ever a good movie? Or "The Swarm"?
