Tim Travers and the Time Traveler's Paradox

Apparently going back in time and killing your younger self _doesn't_ wipe you out of existence but breaks something fundamental about the nature of reality. I learned this while attending a screening at deadCenter Film Festival 24. Once freed from the constraints of The Paradox, Tim proceeds to use the time machine as more of a Tim Travers factory, producing many Tim Travers who each attempt to forge their own path with their own new experiences. This is confusing and disrupting to everyone else and indeed to reality itself which proceeds to become more and more chaotic. It was a crazy ride which I quite enjoyed.

Got to watch the premier last night in San Jose and it was so fun to watch. Felicia day is great as always when she is on the screen she steals the scene. There were lots of laughs and fun characters . Sam was great at playing so many versions of himself and was great to see the character have the same idea I would have had being multiple versions of myself in one room😉 after the movie the cast did a Q & A and were hilarious and fun to listen to. I wish them the best with this movie and hope more people get to watch it. I'd like the opportunity to see it again myself and take some friends too.

The core of this movie and the short is the same. A tight 16 minutes has been streeeeeetch out for essentially the same plot points but with a going nowhere podcast, a director hitman insert with such bad acting I almost shut the movie of.

A literal circle jerk was the one extra laugh this got from me, a cheap one.

I wanted more, got less.

Just the right amount of goofy banter, delving into both hard science fiction concepts, and philosophizing of creation myths, and delivering ridiculous and witty interactions between characters. Lead Sam Dunning does a great job commanding the screen with a truly shocking variety of concepts to showcase, Felicia Day was hilarious and ate up every scene she was in, and writer/director/actor Stimson Snead had me cackling at every turn. The additional cast was also full of top notch talent- super fun to see the likes of Joel McHale, Keith David, and Danny Trejo joining the cast. Was able to attend the premiere at the Cinequest Uplift Film Festival and clearly the whole cast and crew had a blast making the film. Truly, could not tell where each next step in the film would come from, and was constantly surprised at the left turns it took every chance it got.

I just saw this film at cinequest film festival. It is a fast-paced movie with lots of laughs and interesting scientific talk too if you follow the discussion about the paradox. There is lot of killing in this film but it is done in an interesting manner and not just gratuitous. The effects of buildings exploding and the universe dividing are really well done and enhance the enjoyability of the film. The main actor, Samuel Dunning, did an amazing job playing more multiple roles than one can count. We had the filmmaker there and he let us know this was all done on an amazingly low budget and in an unbelievably short time.
