We would spontaneously act out scenes from the movie, usually bewildering everyone around us. For example, he would come in the mailroom and say, "Lorraine, were you ever in a situation where you knew you had to act a certain way, and when it happened you knew you couldn't go through with it?" and we'd launch into that scene.

Yes, BTTF is a cinematic masterpiece, so much so that it is immune from being remade/rebooted/rehashed or whatever. It annoys me when people complain about 2 being too convoluted and basically just a trailer for 3. Nope. It goes into the Twilight Zone aspects of time travel quite brilliantly. And 3 is just a lot of fun, with perfect casting of all those old TV western scrubs and Mary Steenburgen as Clara.

While they dont time Travel in the traditional Sense.    The passage of time compared to standard earth time changes drastically.

Looper - Freaking great movie with Bruce Willis and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (On Netflix)

Boss Level - just pure action and comedy with Frank Grillo [on hulu]

Groundhog Day - my favorite comedy you should have seen this one with bill murray

Tenet - Confusing, but fun. Need to watch a few times I think. With John David Washington (Denzel’s son) and everyone’s favorite sparkling vampire (in a good acting job from him)

The Source Code - Fun sci-fi with Jake Gyllenhal and one of my favorite actors that’s never seemingly had a major starring role in anything I’ve seen in Jeffrey Wright.

Midnight in Paris - if you like Woody Allen and Owen Wilson

Edge of Tomorrow - Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt action packed extravaganza. Pretty funny too early on.

The Tomorrow War - Good action movie with Chris Pratt. Just solid fun. Maybe went a bit too long.

Paycheck - an underrated old Ben Affleck movie.

Idiocracy - traveling to what feels like the nearer future everyday. A really dumb comedy.

Black Knight - a really shitty Martin Lawrence comedy I have always loved. Doesn’t compare to any of the above.

Click - one of Adam Sandler better late stage comedies.

The Butterfly Effect - Ashton Kutcher time travel drama. Love this movie. Never saw the direct to dvd sequels though. There’s also 2 endings to this movie I never knew that until recently.

The map of tiny perfect things - a random loop romantic comedy you and the wife/girl could watch maybe? [amazon prime]

Happy Death Day 1/2 - mostly comedy slasher time movie. Really enjoyed the first. Second was okay.

Also forgot to mention on the video game front I really enjoyed Life is Strange. As it is a story game you could really just watch someone play it guess. But it is a teen drama style of game. It gets better and darker as the story progresses along.

• boss level - just incredibly fun to watch
• map of tiny perfect things - actually is a cute little date movie.  I liked this more than i probably should've
• tenet (not really new anymore) I don't care what people say, this movie is great

Dark City: Dystopian and weird, but an awesome film. Alex Proyas is a great director.
Non ci Resta, Che Il Crimine (erroneously translated as All You Need is Crime): A fun Italian film with a bunch of big name, MODERN Italian actors, they are soccer fans who get transported to 1982, during the World Cup.
Il Capitale Umano: Another great Italian film, it was remade in 2019 starring Liev Schreiber. This film has the first half or so, flashback 3 times, each in the POV of someone different, so not quite time travel, but switching back and forth.
Swimming Pool: French film that plays with your head in many ways; NOT a time travel film, but absolutely an alternate reality film. One of my favourite film lines ever came from this, a play on the, "every asshole," line: "Awards are like hemorrhoids; eventually, every asshole gets one."

And it's been mentioned, but Donnie Darko is just fantastic, a truly deep film.
