This post is to David and anybody else who is math inclined, and/or has an interest in Physics.
I watched this movie at the cinema I knew nothing about beforehand called 'Primer'. (made in 2004 and directed by Shane Carruth)
Anyway, the film went over my head a little as it deals with the paradoxes of time travel, but unlike alot of other movies doesn't flesh out the concept for an audience who didn't take 8th grade physics.
There seem to be four kinds of people who see this movie:
1) Those that get it fully.
2) Those that don't get it but say they do to fit in. (I'm looking at you Ebert)
3) Those that partially get but need more explanation. (I am here)
4) Those that don't get it all.
So anyway, I thought I'd make SMP aware of this film if they aren't already, and I'd be particularly keen to hear David's thoughts on it.
Cheers,
SDM
