Movie did 20 MIllion Opening Weekend. Pretty good for an R-rated Sci Fi film. Also they are saying it did over 20 Million Overseas in China Alone. It only had 30 Million Budget so this movie is going to do well at the box office. It won't gross 100 Million in the U.S. but Worldwide it will.

Why didn't at the end, instead of shooting himself in the chest w the blunderbuss, JGL instead shoot off the hand that his older self (Bruce Willis) was pointing at lil devil boy's Mom....sure he'd lose a hand but he'd be alive

because the cycle STILL will continue, unless he completely cease to exist. it had more to do than stopping his older self. he foresaw how the cycle would continue

Wow this fukking movie man fukking awesome!!
Bruce Willis was a great anti-hero in this film. He hasn't been this badass since Lucky # Slevin.
JGL like always - killed it!!
That ending I almost shed a tear there

 

[FonzieJr]

That storyline was on another level.

saw the movie this weekend, and after reading the tread and my own opinions, I was beyond satisfied...

then I read this a blurb in British GQ about the most mindfukking time-travel movies and it mentioned something no one has brought up and I was

a few questions to think about...(time-travel movies are so awesome but such a clusterfukk)

Spoiler

A.) so in original timeline, Bruce Willis' Joe closes his loop, and lives his life, meeting his Chinese wife, and he gets caught and sent back by what he tells JGL's Joe is the Rainmaker's men...if Bruce Willis' Joe is the creation of the Rainmaker, how is the Rainmaker character in the original timeline?

B.) Its assumed this cycle has repeated itself an infinite amount of times...What happens to Bruce Willis' Joe in the timeline where he creates the Rainmaker? Like after Bruce Willis' Joe kills Rainmakers mom...what happens to him?...He just stays in the same timeline with JGL's Joe ....?


C.) Why doesn't Bruce Willis' Joe just go into hiding since he knows he is going to get caught in 30 yrs and be sent back?

I know these problems are most likely just a result of time-travel paradoxes...time travel movies sometimes turn into "the chicken or the Egg" type scenarios, but interested to see what you guys think
