KeymasterAs we approach year's end, I thought it might be appropriate to discuss our favorite time travel movies.My pick: The Time Machine (the 1960 version, not the 2002 version)Special consideration also goes to:Back to the FutureTerminatorSpecial “worst of genre” goes to:Timeline

Fully agree with these two. Must add the first Planet of the Apes. A masterpiece!

KeymasterAh yes, that is the other one I forgot to mention. Good choice in POTA.

ParticipantI like Star Trek Generations where Picard and Kirk meet in the Nexus (I know it doesn't quite fit the criteria here but I had to hijack this thread with Star Trek somehow). 🙂

ParticipantI had to refresh my memory and I am still unable to say difinitively but “12 Monkeys” is my vote because it was directed by Terry Gulliam. This link includes film clips on the subject.http://www.toptenz.net/top-ten-time-travel-movies.php

Participant12 Monkeys is kinda hard to follow for me. It was on last night though. 🙂

ParticipantI have to go with Phid here and say the original “Time Machine”. The remake just doesnt do it justice.Honorable mention goes to:1. Time Bandits- Just Hilarious2. The Philadelphia Experiment- Good story3. Bill & Ted's Most Excellent Adventure- Another Hilarious one4. When Peggy Sue Got Married- Good Movie5. The Final Countdown- Wouldnt the Japanes have been surprised?

KeymasterAh, good catch with The Final Countdown. I had forgotten about that one.

KeymasterI don't know how many of you watch Lost, but since they're traveling back in time now to 1974 it kind of qualifies as historical entertainment. ;D
