In: Culture Innovative
2 Nov 2009Tracks of plot, character, and events in several movies, with xkcd‘s usual wry humor on top. Thanks to Jonathon Marcus for pointing it out.
Since I hadn’t seen Primer, I looked it up on Wikipedia and they found the below timeline description of how time travel works in the movie:
