Random title. Just got back from a bar. Also saw looper.
It was.. well a different take on causality. Action-y and inserting for a movie's sake, but about as logical as taping buttered toast to cats to create antigravity.
Spoilerage:
Just let that word sink in if you haven't seen it. I mean its worth seeing, but I'm going to rant a bit and it will ruin it for you.
I can assume you've seen the trailer at the least... so anyway it turns out to save the future buddy has to kill himself. Which is fine, but if he kills himself his future self will never come back from the suture and it will just reset to the default timeline. Which will cause the causality loop and cause all time to repeat forever, which honestly I'm sure would end the universe.
They sort of hint that's what they were going for... but its all just smoke and mirrors. I'd be tempted to guess at it, but this is one time travel movie where I just don't care too. I mean there's plenty of times where buddy changes his future self's actions which would require him living. The loop is not perfect... and yeah I know I just thought about it. Proving I care and it bothers me. They could have avoided this logic fail completely, but nooo. They even flaunted it with a scene of some guy losing all his limbs as they take apart his past self... while interesting, not really anything I would consider well thought out.
Yeah I'm a time travel geek. Sue me. I'll forgive quite a bit till one of them handles the change in our distance from galactic central point in time travel(hell even our distance around the sun). So any time travel device would also have to be a teleporter.
Okay I'm really drunk so I'm going to put on the lord of the rings and pass out.
