Just pretend to get it and name drop it when people talk about time travel movies

I love this movie because I don't understand it. I can at least appreciate that the writers wrote it so intricately. It's like looking at a great painting even though you can't paint for shit.
Christopher Morris
it's about two friends that accidentally invent time travel, completely fuck their chances of getting back to a "normal timeline," begin to hate each other, and finally resolve to at least stop a shooting at a party

>I can at least appreciate that the writers wrote it so intricately.
I still wonder how much it just came down to "they filmed a bunch of random shit" and smushed it all together in the edit using all the VO and stuff.

Isn't this about a box that lets you travel back to the time you turned it on?
Grayson Bell
Did anyone else completely despise the movie and everything else Shane Carruth has made just from seeing his disgusting unwashed white tongue a few minutes into Primer?
I can't be the only one

the most reddit movie of all time

they apparently had perfected time travel before they even began to do the first experiment. then they just put a time machine inside of a time machine

no you idiot, in many early scenes the two main characters are actually doubles from other timelines

The greatest time travel movie ever made. The director used to be an engineer. Just because you don't understand the plot doesn't mean it doesn't make sense.
This isn't Inception.

>What if a time travel movie made sense and followed a logical series of rules
>What if we only had 10 dollars to make a film
If the movie makers didn't suck their own dicks about being engineers so hard, and had them find an ancient spell or something at a pawn shop to make a magic box instead of sciencemagic they accidentally homebrewed in their garage, it would have made a better movie.

it's actually a very competent time travel movie and ends right when it needs to, it's very intricate and layered and often purposefully misleading, which I would say is to the movie's detriment, but for somebody that likes to work out the timeloops it's essentially porn, only homestuck really comes close to this kind of bullshit
also i'm convinced the world ends after the movie does from the amount of variables at play

you can only travel back to the moment a time machine was switched on. the time travel is not explicitly causal, the timeline can be changed if you interact with a 'past self', but it's easy to avoid this.
multiple time machines can be started in sequence, you can travel in the earliest one turned on to 'reset' the timeline to the earliest point, thus nullifying timeloops. you can also bring time machines into other time machines due to the compact nature. time doubles from other timelines can invade your timeline at any moment because of the nature of this.
all of this comes together to form a multilayered narrative in which the two main guys feud over the ethics and secrets they are holding against eachother.
Justin Cruz
What did the ending scene mean ? Is he going to time travel a lot of people ?
Austin Ortiz
because you have to wait a considerable length of time inside of 'the box', he made the box liveable. presumably he's going to time travel a period of weeks, if not months
Luke Butler
That's rather ominous , seems like they'll fuck the whole planet
Benjamin Davis
The only scene that was cut from the movie was a short shot showing that one of them was diabetic. They had almost no money and spend most of it on buying film so they didn't cut much of anything and had barely any scenes that they shot more than once or twice.
Everything was planned out in advanced.
Luke Myers
Great movie. It opens up a little more each time you watch it.
Thomas Williams
>invent time travel
>literally the biggest milestone in human's history
>first thing you do is make easy bucks off stock market and bets
LMAO fucking petty idiots
>somehow fuck it all up by trying to change the outcome of a past recent event
Oh, irony. This is why time travelling to the past will never be possible.
I agree, though, that this is pure kino.
Jace Roberts
His other movie Upstream Color is fantastic as well

WHY WON'T YOU JUST TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY FROM SOMEONE AND FINALLY MAKE A TOPIARY INSTEAD OF SITTING ON THE SCRIPT FOR DECADES YOU FUCKING HACK

I was confused by the other guy with the beard who he chases, is it someones dad who hijacks the machine and time travels too.

What are you supposed to do? Try to market it? Collect your nobel prize?
What then when someone uses your technology to go back and have it first, and thus, the credit?
You have to be smart to invent time travel, and smart people know to keep that shit a secret.
Jose Rodriguez
>what are you supposed to do?
They started fucking with time travel without realizing the full implications of their actions. They should've thought about it carefully, is what I meant. They're smart but not smart enough for time travel.
Sebastian Ross
funny but I ain't takin that bait
