Finally, we've come to the smoking hot British-comedy-about-a-time-travel-bathroom of time travel, "Frequently Asked Questions 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!
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"!
