The aspect about time travel that fascinates me so much is there is no right or wrong method. Several movies, books, comics, and other stories have used time travel as a main component of the plot. If I were to time travel what would that look like? Where would I go? What movie or book would I use as my rules for time travel?
First, I would go 65 million years back and visit with the dinosaurs. How would I get there though? If I follow 鈥淏ack to the Future鈥� rules, I would need a DeLorean that can take me to any point past or present. The problem though using that movie is I can mess up my current life by interfering with events that influence my present time. It wouldn鈥檛 be an issue going back 65 million years though, I hope.
If I follow 鈥淎vengers: Endgame鈥� rules, I would need Tony Stark's GPS bracelet that can, I think, take me to any point in the past. The plus side is I wouldn鈥檛 have to worry about any paradoxes using their rules. You can鈥檛 change your present-self based on what you did in the past. Since I鈥檓 going back so far in time, I will take the DeLorean over the GPS bracelet so I can escape any dangerous predators.
Having not been alive yet to see one of my favorite movies debut on the big screen, I will travel back to the first screening of 鈥淪tar Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.鈥� With this being so close to the present, care needs to be taken.
The GPS bracelet or even in the recent movie 鈥淭he Tomorrow War鈥� will be my best chance to not interfere with any timelines. In 鈥淭he Tomorrow War,鈥� two time machines are built in two different time periods and time moves parallel to one another. I would be able to hop back and forth with close to no issues aside from missing a few hours in my current timeline.
There are so many other events I would have liked to have witnessed, such as the first Modern Olympic Games in Athens, Greece in 1896, Sir Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute mile barrier in 1954, and opening day of Walt Disney World in 1971.
