@tomasino@tilde.zone primer is its own type, and one of the better ones in terms of probable realism. maybe edge of tomorrow for its own.... thing... basically groundhog day with extra steps.

@tomasino@tilde.zone Jet Li's The One. Sliders & Everything Everywhere All at Once are good, too, but The One is just such a perfect use of multiverse/parallel timelines, doesn't get goofy with it.

@tomasino@tilde.zone Multiverse-wise Inception is not a bad choice. The Matrix also is a multiverse one.

@tomasino@tilde.zone between Time Bandits, Predestination or the series Travelers, El Ministerio del Tiempo or Lost, there are so many ways ...

@tomasino@tilde.zone Not a film, but https://arsparadoxica.com fits squarely into multiversal timetravel! No doubt about it, the authors are talented! Hmmmm... Don't include The Terminator on the list since what the characters believe contradicts the (at least to me) simplest interpretation of the events. Or Doctor Who, since every episode might treat time travel differently. Only way the show could last so long!

@tomasino@tilde.zone independent one: Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (JP, 2020) Illustrates in a humorous way how people strive to control time, as well as the consequences of small interventions aimed at changing it ...

@tomasino@tilde.zone Somewhere in Time. Christopher Reeve seemed to do it purely via his imagination and wishing hard enough, and while In Wuv with a portrait of the woman he wanted to meet in person. my recall of the film's script anyway

@tomasino@tilde.zone Everything Everywhere All At Once prob has some flavor of time travel. inter-dimensional travel is arguably functionally equiv to time travel

@tomasino@tilde.zone _frequency_? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_(2000_film) time travel as such not possible, but communication is allowed through some device or medium. (apart from that part of the conceit i think it's a _back to the future_ model?)
-
@FiXato@toot.cat 2026-04-10 21:13
@tomasino@tilde.zone at first glance One-Minute Time Machine may be one, though it probably more accurately is a multiverse one instead. Not a feature-length film, but rather a short film though.

@tomasino@tilde.zone Synchronic is an example of past(-and-sometimes-back-to-present)-only, chemically-induced, temporary time travel that's also contextualized to position in space. For example, standing on a couch and inducing travel will take you to a specific past time and place, while standing *next to* the couch will take you somewhere else.

@tomasino@tilde.zone ok, i've got another one that i feel like is sort of a paradigm: the thing in russian doll's second season where you can go to a different time but only by taking over or being transported into the body/consciousness of a person in that time.
