Welcome back, Chrononauts! Join Desmond and Scott as they dive into the chaotic world of "Mega Time Squad" from 2018. This 86-minute New Zealand comedy offers a unique take on time travel, filled with dry humor and a plot that spirals into delightful chaos. With a bracelet that allows limited time travel, our protagonist, John, finds himself in a loop of clones, crime, and comedic misadventures.In this episode, we explore the film's humorous take on time travel mechanics, the cultural nuances of New Zealand comedy, and the complexities of tracking multiple versions of the same character. Desmond attempts to unravel the tangled web of timelines, while Scott contemplates the film's thematic elements, including the recurring motif of "growing nuts."Join the conversation as we discuss the film's strengths and weaknesses, from its low-budget charm to its sometimes confusing narrative. We also debate the portrayal of folklore within the movie and whether the film's humor lands for audiences outside of New Zealand.(00:00) This is time pop, a podcast that discusses time travel and pop culture

Join us on a cinematic adventure as we discuss mind-bending films that challenge our perception of reality in this summer series spectacular. From time-altering movies on Time Pop to fantasy film debates on Thank the Light, we're unpacking the layers of storytelling that captivate and confuse. Plus, a deep dive into Christopher Nolan's masterpiece, 'Inception'—a film that merges dreams with reality, and possibly time travel. Tune in for a journey through the intricacies of Nolan's craft, the nuances of 'Inception,' and the timeless question: What is real?

Chapters:

(00:00) We've been releasing some special episodes over on our patreon

(05:21) Adew: I disagree with the length of inception. I really like this movie

(06:07) Scott: We didn't even have children when this movie came out

(06:59) Christopher Nolan's latest film, The Dark Knight, stars four Scottish actors

(10:30) This film is so good. It is so ahead of its time

(11:42) They don't start the heist until mid 60. So the ending is at the beginning. Right? There's, there's, yeah,

(12:44) The one thing that I think could go from this movie is how angry everyone is

(13:59) There is an element of time travel that you could debate. But you could definitely argue this could be in regular time pop

(15:22) Do you ever have outside sounds enter your dreams

(18:28) Sometimes Seinfeld will pop up in my dreams. It usually ends up just being a noise

(20:17) Is time travel based on what the actual fact of time is as a thing

(23:14) If we went to Mars, would time be different because there's less gravity

(26:39) Level four is pure limbo. By the way, if you die, you end up in limbo

(28:37) Overall, the film is a dream. It's a dream within a dream

(30:21) Who are all the characters they need in this heist film

(32:09) The architect, the dreamer. Youssef is the chemist. So I guess is he the architect in that sense

(35:57) There's lots of questions with this film. The ending is the big one

(39:20) Christopher Nolan's latest movie is insane if you haven't seen it

(39:39) So this is my, my new favorite genre of movie reviews

(42:19) Scott says his totem is Malz, who's out to get him

(45:09) This film had more practical effects than last night, everyone

(49:54) Scott: This one is in my top film list

(51:26) Do you think endgame should be shorter? I haven't seen it

(53:10) Have you been registering the time travel episodes for Patreon

(54:45) Scott Lifton says he and his friends never referred to themselves as pussy punch
