Time Travel Movies

I'm planning a time travel movie marathon so I'm starting a list. Titles you can add will be greatly appreciated.

Here's what I've come up with so far:

1. Back To The Future trilogy (of course!)
2. Donnie Darko
3. Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel (lol)
4. The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (check this one out!)
5. The Lake House (hey, time still quite checks into the plot)
6. The Time Traveler's Wife

And those are the only ones I can think of right now. I just know I am missing out a lot.

I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

Timescape is a decent one: you dont see a lot of time travel. The premise is a group of tourists show up in the present that we later find out are time travel groupies. Jeff Daniels goes back in time one day and we later find out off screen that he went bac further. Loose because we only actually see time travel once and it's only 1 day into the past.

Trancers was a 4 part time travel series.

About Time (a very romantic movie about time travels) just came out and I really enjoyed it.

"4. The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (check this one out!) "

Toki o kakeru shoujo?

Morning Musume version, or the other one?

The Morning Musume version is actually pretty good. I like the japanese 'romance' crap, because it's more subtle, and less overt - things are mostly hinted at, never completely shown, like in a hollyweird movie, where viewers are oversaturated by iloveyous, kisses and verbal emotional expressions, urgh.

So in japanese movies, the 'romance' is actually tolerable, and almost harmless, allowing the viewer to focus on the actual plot better.

Timecrimes has got to be one of the most underrated time travel movies of all time...
