Yea, but IIRC when they killed this guy who killed the other,,, hold on, no, towards the end they made something NOT happen to the Woman who was doing it, therefore she never did it and the cops best friend died. Did you watch ALL THE WAY ? Not only did the cop go and rekill the guy to get her friend back, she also found the original person who did all this.
Fiction about time travel has always intrigued me, you might think ironically because of what I am about to say. I do not go with much normal scientific theory when it comes to things we reaally don't know. I believe that advanced mathematics has created sort of a mental fractal, which is giving the scientific community the idea that time travel is possible. I believe it to be impossible. I belive that with every fiber of my being. I can take in alot of wild theory, and I have the background to disect it. But in the end noone will ever convince me that time travel is possible, and I don't care what Einstein said or anyone else. Time is a different thing. It cannot be altered.
Almost ironically, that is the allure for me. If there were time machines, this fiction about all the bad shit that can happen would be scary, but I am not scared. I will not be scared until I personally travel through time, and when I do so, I will make for myself POSITIVE PROOF. Not hard really. Just a few well chosen words, written somewhere, or the destruction of something. Absolute proof for when I get back. Nothing less will convince me.
But what COULD happen if it were possible is intriguing, and if we take the clues right, maybe a reminder to be aware that we do change the future, in every action we take. The fiction still kicks ass. Did you ever read Rant ? It's by Chuck Pahalniuk (sp) guy, same guy who wrote Fight Club. I found it quite interesting, especially in the way it was done. There was no time machine, no device as such. But the idea was to somehow become his own Father, which then leads to immortality. Supposedly. The way it was presented I can accept the means of the time travel more easily than some machine that bombards your ass with particles. The method was not really explained in the text.
But almost anything. I hate cop shows, but TimeCop, well ok. Some Star Trek TNG cliffhangers and the Year From Hell. Even TOS, they had about three, maybe four episodes that had it. Twilight Zones, Outer Limitses, One Step Beyond even. The Terminator movies. That's in a way how I got my handle. I was dubbed that by a friend's olady. I called on the phone and she answered, he asked who it was and she said "It's the Terminator". I only saw one and two, didn't watch the series either. I don't think I have to.
Something I know I CAN'T HAVE is the most intriguing. Go figure.
