      The movie is based on the short story All You Zombies by Robert A. Heinlein, and it does a great job preserving the spirit and internal logic of the narrative. When you take that into account, you’ll realize how impressive the filmmaking is here. It’s hands down my favourite time travel movie.

        It’s crazy that generation of sci Fi writers just cranked out gems like machines that ran on meth for pennies and no recognition…

        Just the sheer amount of work they produce is insane. Compared to know where we rarely get a movie/show that’s not based on something from over a decade ago

        Like, special effects are cool and are, but we need more low budget shit if it’s at least new. Not every project needs a nine digit budget.

        Somebody else mentioned Coherence, and that’s a great example of how scifi can be good without crazy effects. Or that movie where two dudes build a time machine to send messages back a day or two?
