T hypothesis.
Time Travel In Film
Time travel in film has always sucked. In every film I have ever seen where there is time travel, it sucks. You would think somebody could make an interesting story with that.

Have to ever done hypothesis? I did about 12 years ago, cause my body couldn't take the punishment, though hypothesis helped me dramatically.

Completely agree with Sedai. There are tons of great time travel flicks. Back To The Future, Time Crimes, The Terminator, Frequency, Bill and Ted films, Planet Of The Apes, etc. I even have a soft spot for The Butterfly Effect. It's a trusty concept that never gets old, imo.
stuff like Terry Gilliam's 12 Monkeys, that are thought-provoking and interesting.

I stand corrected, Terry's 12 Monkeys is a masterpiece. But Terry is a genius, and the exception to any rule.
Source Code is also time traveling I think. I thought it was a rather ok movie. Not a blockbuster but entertaining enough.
In, Back to the Future, old Marty does NOT know that young Marty is knocking around because old Marty exists on an ALTERNATE timeline.
At least, that's the only explanation that makes sense.

Timecrimes(2007) Dir. Nacho Vigalondo , spanish sci-fi (& timetravel obv) for me was a pleasant find for me!!
I am not a physicist or anything close to a physicist but I did read a book a while back about the Multiverse theory, basically every second you are alive, or decision you make forms the start of a new Multiverse so there would be millions upon millions of different you's, all of this is really just theoretical and I am probably wrong on all the facts but I remember it being something like that, and if that was the case then time travel would be impossible, which I am sure that it is already.

OMG! I've just spotted a mahhooosive plot hole in Back To The Future.
Currently watching BTTF 2, while doc is explaining with the chalkboard about how Biff has changed the past, he holds up a newspaper showing that he has been locked up for being a nutcase.
If that were the case, (that Biff has changed the past), Doc wouldn't have built the time machine, the Doc that we're seeing on screen right now holding up the newspaper wouldn't exist (if anything he would have vanished from existence like Marty nearly did in the first film, if anything, he would have vanished from existence while he was in the future 2015 when Biff stole the time machine).
The past has been changed, which means everything Doc and Marty have been doing in the past two movies couldn't have happened.
Not only that, when Biff goes back, he gives that sports book to his young self, then returns to the future. Surely the 'future' he came back to would be a different 'future', because he has changed the past, meaning Doc and Marty would have been stuck without a time machine.
As I said in my previous posts, a massive paradox. Can't believe I've only just noticed this one.

The problem with time travel is that it has been done to death and there is really no way you can make it feel fresh again. From the mentioned Terminator to the Star Trek series and beyond. But still, despite not being much of a fan of time travelling, I simply adore Back to the Future to this day. I don't know if it is nostalgia bias but I can't not love the series.
Source Code is also time traveling I think. I thought it was a rather ok movie. Not a blockbuster but entertaining enough.
Also, because no-one has mentioned it yet: Futurama: Bender's Big Score (2007). Very tongue-in-cheek, very filled with in-jokes, but very funny, and actually quite clever in the way it was executed, ending up with multiple plots running during different time frames that all connect in the end. It starts with a lot of loose ends, but by the end it ties them all up... except, of course, for the most important one: where did the tattoo come from? But even that can't take away from my love of this movie. It's truly a tribute to everything great about Futurama!
