I found this site while looking around the web tonight, and it's a great read. Basically it's explaining time paradox's and such in the Terminator Movies, Star Trek Generations, and Back to the Future. I disagree on the Terminator theory, I have my own that makes it possible, but that's another story. Check this site out, and notice the side menu on the left, with a time travel link, as well as links to some movies that involves time travel. I've yet to check those out, but am about to. www.mjyoung.net/time/letter07.htmlEDIT: I've been reading the site, one has to really be into this stuff, like us, to enjoy it. It gives in depth though to Back to the Future, Star Trek, 12 Monkies, Flight of the Navigator, Army of Darkness, Lost in Space, Bill and Ted, and so many others. And yes Wolf, it talks about the new Planet of the Apes, and pretty much answers my question I posted on The Table a few months ago. My theory was right that that head Ape who was defeated, eventually, even if 20 years later, used a ship to get to Earth, but Earth tens of thousands of years ago to change the evolution of the planet.

Burton never wanted to make a sequel
I read he was pissed when the studio asked him to change the ending to what it was, but since they threatened to pull the plug all together he changed the ending

I think those types of ending are basically retarted, unless the studio knows for sure there is going to be a sequel.
I'm still waiting on a Lost In Space sequel with the same cast, that will likely never come.

I've decided to sticky this since it's pretty interesting look into the science of science fiction.

Well you know my love of everything physicsy and stuff, so of course to me that page is a delightful read. I cant however deny that personally, time travel really hurts my head. I understand everything that has been said in that article, but at the same time, my brain just seems to overload and then crash and lock up in a dismal attempt to try and ignore the mind boggling concepts I just presented it with.
Has anyone else here read the book "Timeline" by Michael Crichton? (Or however he spells his name) Now theres a book with some interesting thoughts about time travel. For those who havent, read it!! Its a great book!

Good theories especially the ones from Star trek Gener. But i dont really agree on the theory of the two picards.
