Propose a time travel plot that doesn't have plot holes
A scientist struggles to invent time travel, but at the end accepts that it's not possible.
man travels forward through time
Harry Potter
>it's not possible.
It literally is though
No it's not
Time traveler can get anywhere through time but can only observe with no effect on the past world.
How the fuck did Harry Potter of all things end up with one of the best time-travels stories in cinema?
>Propose a time travel plot that doesn't have plot holes.
I travel back in time and then I fix all the plot holes in other time travel plots!
>user goes back in time to fuck neanderthal women
>catches cave aids
>dies in the past
GG OP
Just watch Endgame
Everyone knows time travel is literally impossible without an energy source greater than or equal to the total sum of our universe’s max energy, but doing so would destroy it anyways. Only travel into perfectly parallel universes where time just happens to be lagging behind by x amount of years is feasible I feel
the 3rd movie only, not the book one
I'm traveling through time right now and so are you
Bill and Ted
Trying to come up with an "original" idea again huh Nolan?
What's wrong with the book?
Fantastic! Now we can all stop wasting energy on time travel!
Yea Forums SAYS IT CAN'T BE DONE!
GAME OVER, EVERYONE! PACK IT IN AND GO HOME!
Yea Forums SAYS IT'S A NO-GO!
a time traveling dog
A guy creates time travel and tries to use it to go to the past but quickly realizes he can only travel to the future. By the time he stops his machine he is millions of years in the future and highly intelligent apes appear to have enslaved all the humans. The scientist however doesn't realize how far he traveled in time and thinks instead that he is on another planet.
At the end of the film he would find some relics of humanity that he recognizes and realizes the fate of man.
Nobody's gonna watch some bullshit like that.
How about a learned english dog and some time stealing midgets instead?
TU TU RU!
I like this one
I call it "The World of the Gorillas"
Every plot that doesn't involve going back in time
This.
That's what Hawkings said you redditor.

Actually a pretty interesting concept desu

Did gelnanas taste good?
The English have a dish called "Jellied Eels" and it tastes like shit so i'd imagine no
A man goes back in time to kill baby Hitler, but seeing him as an infant makes him hesitate and be unable to go through with it. Another guy tries and kills the wrong baby, and on and on.
Eventually they realize it isn't possible to change the past, because it all already happened.
Time Travel is literally impossible and so is Reddit parallel universes. There's no such thing you Rick and Morty obsessed soibois. Just think about it. How can a person transport into the past? Where do they end up and when? It's absurd. There are no parallel universes either. That's just people thinking "HURR WHAT IF THOUGH, IF IF IF IF DURR"
Well all English food is shit, so that's not really fair
the plot needs those holes to breathe
I'm onto you time travelers trying to hide your technology
sorry i meant the stage play one, the cursed child version is fucking stupid
user, I like to believe that JK Rowling died after the 7th book came out.
A man goes back to kill babby hitler, and does so. When he returns to his present, the world is a fucking mess. An even bigger , nuclear war broke out in the 60's, and the world is fucked. So he goes back in time again, to try and stop himself killing hitler. But he fails. So instead, he becomes hitler
Whole book about it, Timeline by Micheal Crighton. Great book. Made into a so-so movie. Really deserves the full HBO miniseries treatment.
unionically
> 2019...I am...forgotten
It's sad but true. I saw this movie in the theatre and I honestly remember nothing about it at all...nothing. It was completely forgettable.
>without an energy source greater than
look at this sperg
Michael Crichton believed you could bend spoons using your mind
Xmen: Days of Future Past. A person gets sent back in time while they slumber and if they change anything in the past, the moment they wake up, those changes take effect and whatever happened previously is erased from everyone elses' minds except for the person who traveled back in time.
Or, Dragon Ball Z. A person going back in time and changing events creates a new universe that splinters off from the universe they originally came from and the future of the original universe is unaffected by the past changes.
Interesting if true. Authors always seem to be a little fucking nuts.
a man hears a legend of father time a timeless sage who can change history. He decides out of hubris to seek equanimity with this sage but through technology. He creates a machine that rolls the universe backward except for a few select particles, it doesn't really roll the universe backward but it just changes the orientation of the particles in a certain space (in the time travelers circle or whatever) so they are in reverse, he goes back and observes his life, everything that made it possible, but realizes he cant change the past because the past with never reach the future he explains using Zeno's paradox. Tomorrows a day away
So he returns exactly to when he left and determines to live a better life, to make the future better, deciding it would cheapen the value of an action if one could have bad yet pleasurable consequences 100x over and then make the right decision after having their fill of fun.
So he destroys the machine, determining that even it was possible to change the past it would be unethical, (it would hint as his ability to create such an object that could change the past).
He retires to a mountain cottage and dons robes similar to that of the legendary wizard of time.
As a bonus, there's a big fucking pile of dead babies at the end!
madoka
Everyone's allowed an allotted amount af aeccentricities
And that was the real Holocaust
Sounds kino
based haha
How about this. Time travel works but it's useless. It only changes time but does nothing about location. So you basically just appear in deep space and die because the earth is now someplace else.
ah-bloo-bloo
HAHAHAHA racism is so funny amirite guyzz???
I think this would be interesting- start of movie shows the "present", but it's totally different to how our present is. And some cunt goes back in time and messes with hsit to change things, changing them to the way things are now. Ie, our world is the result of time fuckery already.
A lonely and horny man who has had a crush on this girl since he was in high school, invents time travel and attempts to set up moments to get his younger self together with this girl. He manages to set up several dates that always end in disaster. You find out later that an even older version of himself is secretly sabotaging everything because he hates women. It's romantic comedy that turns into a dark comedy halfway through.
in english, doc
Not the movie's fault, gramps.
I hope this post is ironic
Astral projection exists irl and you can do that
How about a time machine that can only travel backwards but automatically returns to its departure time after, say, 1 week in its destination time. Once it returns to its original time, it cannot return to either the same destination again or any time within 100 years of it in either direction.
>guy goes back in time to see dinosaurs and die
>does
Good story but it doesn't fix time travel paradoxes.
Sounds like anime
So basically just rip off Twelve Monkeys?

No you can't

I do it all the time.
I mostly project myself up Taylor Swift's ass.
I call it Ass-tral Projection.

time dosent exist. all time is, is a measuring unit, much like cups, liters, gallons etc. you cant go forward or back in something that does not exist
Imagine being one of these morons. Did you see this on I FUCKING WANT TO FUCK FUCKING SCIENCE on faceberg and think it sounded clever? You're a retard and a parrot.
Cups exist bro
You aren't traveling through shit, this is just your perception of the passage of events.
>he still thinks time is linear
summerfag
It's been already done by the Germans.
Correct answer.
The banana teleported out of the microwave the one time Chris was watching, and yet at no other time does anything else tested in the microwave move.
Still a great story though.
Hello 4channel, physicist here. "Time" as a concept really has no basis in reality; there are only two observable phenomena that indicate a progression of time: the second law of thermodynamics (entropy always increases), and the cosmic microwave background radiation from the big bang. Time as we perceive it really doesn't exist because, besides those two principles, every single observed physical phenomenon is time-reversible. That is, there is no way to tell from the outset whether a system is progressing forward or backwards in time. All this implies that the future and past don't exist as states along a time dimension, the universe is just a time-independent evolution of a physical system.
Time travel however, does exist. We are currently going at the speed of light forward in time. You can go "faster" through time by increasing your speed to near the speed of light, and then decelerating back to our reference frame. This is all a consequence of special relativity.
Going backwards however would require a way to systematically reverse the trajectories of EVERY particle in the universe (because of the time-reversibility of physics), which requires more energy than is in the universe by law II.
Nice theory.
Youre a retard time is happening all at once all you need to do is trigger perception
A scientist invents what he believes to be a time machine but upon activating it, it destroys the Earth and time machine travels backwards through spacetime at 88mph unmanned. The end.
>Trigger perception
>time travel is just reliving memories
you are so fucking stupid it hurts
>HUURRR hot and cold don't exist because temperature is just a number
Hey dipshit, Temperature is quantifiable, as in you can actually feel it and it tangibly exists. Time is just perception.
I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE BITCH WE DID IT REDDIT WUBBA LUBBA DUBSTEP
>2 homies travel back in time
>at the end of the movie it turns out they were just high
Man goes back in time and breeds with jurrasic mammals, thus becoming the ancestor to the human race
It's not possible because I've never seen anyone from the future.
A man (or any of the genders) goes back in time, and just keeps going, to see how far he can go, and it turns out time is a flat circle and he ends up just going around forever, there is no beginning or end. He goes right past the dinosaurs and the big bang and wraps around into the future and back again or something idk fuck time
>Time is just perception
perception of what?
Bumping with some time travel kino
Would "All You Zombies" work as a mini-series?
I wanted to post this in a Dark thread as a rec, but it would've ruined the tweest.
What the fuck? Harry Potter had time travel? I guess it goes to show how boring and forgettable they were. I faintly remember an amulet but I don't know what timetravel that thing did.
Ok this is based
>he cant astral project
>A person going back in time and changing events creates a new universe that splinters off from the universe they originally came from and the future of the original universe is unaffected by the past changes.
that's normally how time travel is explained, multiple alternate realities that splinter off with every change
So it's impossible to return to a timeline you were in before? The people in that timeline will never see you again?
>citing cybernetic jew as a credible source
>being from reddit
pick 2
thats the plot of planet of the apes retard
>it all already happened.
this is the only way you can do time travel, you need to do it LOST style, where everything has already happened. if you remove the ability to change the future time travel works perfectly imo. LOST just went full retard with it
This. Because it's the only plausible possibility.
What would happen if you put one time machine in another, but going opposite directions?
>Dad invents time machine
>Goes back in time to kill himself
>Son watches and vow revenge
>Son makes time machine to go back in time to kill the person who shot his father
>Son travels back in time but gets there early and kills his father by accident.
>Dad from the future shows up and shoots the son from the past.
>Dad and son are reunited.
you know, I don't know if anyone has done that before. return to their own timeline and finding out nothing has changed and time moved on as if they were missing for X days
Dragon Ball Z did that
3rd book/movie had a pretty much flawless time-loop with no paradoxes or inconsistancies (that I can think of). It was used to great effect in the story without feeling cheap or tacked on. It's honestly a marvel how good it was considering how well-written it is considering.
Only gripe is that it means theres no excuse to not use time travel for everything (or at least attempt to) but they kind of handwaved it away by having every single other time-turner in one place to be conviniently destroyed all at once in a later movie.
Fringe fucking annoyed me with it's time travel. They used it to just reverse shit that happened like people dying, so there was no tension or meaning to anything. Just undo it. And then they literally undid the whole thing, from the beginning. Like the whole show never actually happened.
But that was my favorite movie. I only remember werewolves and those black ghosts.. Dementors. I guess as a kid I didn't pay much attention to the intricacies of the plot.
This is the reason why I will never watch Fringe past season three ever again.
Guy spends centuries gathering power to fuel his time machine committing countless atrocities along the way only to go back 20 minutes.
it's my life and you can travel forward at varying speeds but in exchange you must spend all the time you are in the normal timeline looking back
Man goes back in time to sort out his childhood and motivate him to not be a lazy neet. He ends up courting his own mother by accident and becoming a father figure to himself - fixing himself in later life.
I heard that if you hold down the a button you can jump several quadruple parallel universes (QPU) at a time. That’s because the universe actively checks if someone is above land each quarter step of his movement.
so a reverse About Time?
hmmmmm I wonder what measuring units are for
>You cant quantify time
Then why are we literally able to do so?
Since 1967, the second has been defined as exactly "the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom" (at a temperature of 0 K).
