    Having "seen" 2 services, I prefer rabb.it. My IRL friends and I had a virtual movie night and it was a lot of fun. I would be more than happy to host Burlesque unless someone else wants to or owns a digital copy of it already. This week is fine with me!

    I think they were bowls of chips!
  3. The area between the car and the ground seems awfully foggy.

    The Chrysler is one of my favorite buildings in NYC. Love the gargoyles and the story behind the "secret" spire.

    Plus, if a bonafide butthead like Biff could do it, surely actor activist and senator could pull it off.

    Don't forget, Timecop is an anagram for "top mice." Maybe it's a Kumite for rodents. So Ron Silva's henchmen didn't kill Rae Dawn Chong, it was 2004 JCVD!

    Thanks JammerLea and SeanMatthewLeary for explaining this movie. You guys are the true Timecop-cops.

    At what minute is that? I can't find it Also, can I just say that it was great to hear the live audience so engaged? The audience questions were interesting (and not cringey) and the second opinion theme singer NAILED IT.

    My question is though, how can he return to the "present" when at the time he left, his return hasn't happened yet. And if he returns at the same time that he is leaving, both time cars would be on a collision course. The time cars use the SAME TRACK. ETA: Even if he returns 1 second after he leaves, that's still the "future."

    Ok, but wouldn't that last JCVD head to back to the past, 1994, and then the original one from 2004 be the one who came back? I really hate time travel movies.

    In addition, even if you manage to travel back in time to an empty space, that air contains gas molecules, water vapor, and various particulates.

    My favorite screenshots from TImecop: ^ The subtitler went above and beyond on that one. ^ This one - what kind of a mall has a wall of Ruffles potato chips on display?

    Right? Then I thought even if the wooden crate housing the gold bullion was transported and tested, it wouldn't be "old enough" because it hasn't aged the 130 years.

    Episode 166 - Timecop: LIVE!

    Although the logic of Timecop is flawless, I had 2 questions. First, in the beginning of the movie, bobo Obama says that they recovered Confederate gold bullion dated 1863, and its age was "carbon tested" for authenticity. But as the name of the test implies, the test is done with carbon, not gold, which is a different element altogether. In addition, carbon dating is performed with radioactive carbon 14 (C-14), which is present in organic matter, like plants or animals that were once alive. The last time I checked, gold is not a living thing and therefore unable to consume C-14 from the environment. I'm sure there are tests that could determine the age of gold, but carbon dating is not it. The second thing is related to the rules of time travel in this movie. Bobo Obama also told us that you can only travel BACK in time, because the future hasn't happened yet. So how do the time travel cars come back to their present time, if at the time of departure, the car's arrival back to present time hasn't happened yet? For example, if the time car leaves at 12 pm, presumably it can only come back to a time point before 12 pm, before departure, right? Well, that would create some problems, as both the past car and future car would be on the same track and you know what they say about the same matter existing in the same space...

    I agree, but the Ron Silvas were literally not touching those things.

    It has 4.5 stars on Amazon right now! I almost bought a gently used copy last night.

    I had the same thought. Our bodies are constantly turning over cells. Skin cells (epidermis) have a lifespan of about 2-4 weeks. Then I got curious and looked up the lifespans of various cell types. Colon cells have a lifespan of only 4 days! So the lesson is, if you ever meet your future self, make sure to only touch colons.

    So, how do we pick the movie? Are we going to start from ep #1, Burlesque?
