Finally, we’ve come to the smoking hot British-comedy-about-a-time-travel-bathroom of time travel, “FAQ About Time Travel.”
By popular demand, we’re diving into the 2009 comedy that mixes a bit of a “Shawn of the Dead” vibe with some time travel tropes, some “Back to the Future” gags, and some generally nerdy discussions of why Hollywood puts out a bunch of crap sequels instead of great sci-fi movies, because jeez.
All the knowledge of every sci-fi movie ever can’t save “FAQ” from getting lost in its time travel ideas, however. Still pretty funny, though!
(It’ll make sense when you listen.)
Listen to Episode 18 here:
In this episode:
* Hey, our (other) book is on sale.
* “Timeless,” it’s not bad
* Oh the Huge Manatee!
* “FAQ About Time Travel,” although it doesn’t really answer any
* Nerding Out at the Bar
* Time Leak. That’s a joke about pee, isn’t it.
* Avoiding yourself because paradoxes
* Getting lost in time
* That One Really Good Idea
* Getting “Edited”
* There are, uh, a lot of timelines here
* The future is an antecedent to the past but also that doesn’t really work
* Wants to Be a Loop Story But Isn’t One
* It gets a 5/7
* Next time: “Deja Vu“!
