Summary

Load your shotgun, put on your clear plastic suit, and climb into that suspiciously humming box! We’re here to talk about three very different time-travel movies: “12 Monkeys,” “Looper,” and “Primer.” Is “Crazy Brad Pitt” a thing? If you met a younger version of yourself, would you fight or cuddle? Why is the apocalypse like Philadelphia? Also something about a Weeble in a time machine, we didn’t really understand that part.

0:00.0	The Incomparable, number 153, August 2013.
0:09.3	We're back on The Incomparable. I'm your host, Jason Snell, and tonight we're going to be talking about time travel movies, but I have a confession to make.
0:17.5	What you're listening to is Timeline B of this podcast. We already did the podcast,
0:23.2	and then we entered a time travel box, traveled back a little more than an hour in time,

0:52.5	I'm glad you watched it.
0:53.7	Spoiler alert. I watched it twice.
0:55.3	It's all spoilers. We'll fire the spoiler horn off at the end of the podcast. But yeah, we're
1:01.7	going to talk about all the movies. Tony Sindelar is also here. Hi, Tony. Hi. You know, if somebody
1:07.8	ran up to me and shakes me and asks me, what year is it? I'm just going to slap them unless they're like filling out of check or something. Then they get...
1:12.9	That's a good idea. If you run into yourself and yourself has gold bars or silver bars all taped to his chest...
1:18.6	I would ask for a 50-50 split. That's called being a gentleman. I think so.
1:28.8	David Laura is here.
1:29.7	Hi, David.
1:30.7	Hello.
1:35.3	I'm, I'm hoping we didn't get around to talking about Inspector Space Time.
