I LURVE TIME TRAVEL MOVIES!!! *ahem* Anyway....
I was watching another time travel flick, and it may not be anything close to the Chrono Trigger games or Back To The Future flicks, but I have to say it was still cool.
Basically, there were these people on this time travel safari, checking out the wild life, with dinosaurs and stuff. Anyway this dude ends up killing a butterfly...
And they end up in a future with smart humanoid dinosaurs.
Im not sure how that works, but it did.
So basically if you ever develop the technology to time travel, dont fuck with past. Or you could end up your own grandmother or some crap like that. :]

I'll keep that in mind.

Things go back in time all the time.

I read a short story in English a couple years back.
Exactly the same thing happened. Guys go back and hunt Dinos, but one guy strays from the preapproved path and crunches a butterfly. They go back and, and hear is the major difference, apparently the results of this really important election were altered and this Hitlar like character was voted in. So the leader of the expidition shot the one dude. The story ends.
Point is your movie stole the beginning and made it tens times as cool.

It sounds like the movie "A sound of thunder"

Actually, the butterfly is basically the stereotypical 'screw up all time' thing.

Yes, I'll refer you to The Simpsons.

The book is better. =P

Actually it is belived that in RL time travel is more or less impossible. In his theory of relativity, Einstein stated that time by itself does not exist and that it is difficult, if not impossible, to represent it in a physical form.

Don't worry, Jackie. I don't think any of us were going to try time travel any time soon. After Napoleon Dynamite's failed venture, I'm rather nervous to try it myself.

Man, that was awesome!

Einstein's theory said that going 'back in time' is perfectly possible. An interpretation of quantum mechanics, the transactional interpretation, require that going back in time be possible. Going back in time is as fake as teleportation.

The question of this is, can you return to your time? Would you age as you traveled into the future, or would you remain the same? The physical aging of a carbon based beingis mainly caused by nitrogen as it reacts to a biotic cell structure. If a person was to come into a device made for time travel, would that same effect take place?

I don't think there are really any hypotheses that touch that and that are taken serious. One could interpret the many-world interpretation of quantum mechanics to mean that if one went back int ime they would end up in a 'parallel universe.' If time travel was possible, that is what I would think.
