The John Titor Enigma and Time Travel, etc.

http://midnightinthedesert.com/john-titor Well, it's the old case of, is he really JT or does he just believe that he is JT? Never the less, this is one of the more fascinating time+travel stories around. He mentioned that there are many timelines. Of course, that theoretical concept has been around for quite a while.
"According to the Many Worlds Interpretation of quantum physics, we live in an infinite web of alternate timelines."

Anyone can read a lot of books, watch movies & TV series about time travel, but that doesn't make one a physical time traveller.

Think back to October 2004, most people won't remember a peculiar time travel movie.

You could watch this movie 10 times & still be perplexed & captivated with the implications.

Its so unfortunate that "Rewind" was immediately cancelled.

It provided one of the best depictions of time & space being like an interactive recording & projection.

Some trivia:
"He is perhaps best known for his supporting role as Jon Titterton in the 2012 Academy Award-winning political thriller film Argo."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Sullivan_(actor) So DS played, Jon Titterton, its slightly similar to John Titor.
"Sullivan starred as Abe in the 2004 independent film Primer, which won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Sullivan_(actor)#Career Its unlikely that DS will go from playing Abe in one time travel movie to playing JT in another TT movie.

Although mostly not involving time travel in the story, all these movies can motivate you look deeper into the nature of reality.
