soz, i'm not exactly the most litterate of people, but yeah you've got a point, and yeah all this arguing was for nothing, ach well

True, General Relativity suggests that the force of gravity should propogate at the speed of light but if you feel you can prove that and reconcile it with Special Relativity then I'd be very interested to hear from you. So would a lot of scientists.

Well since you clearly know what you're talking about a lot more than I do, I withdraw my statement.

The butterfly effect was fucking amazing. A bit confusing though.

I had no idea what was going on at first when he switched lives.

Amazing film, I really really enjoyed that movie

I wanna watch it all over again already.

It got me thinking about how, what seem at the time, insignificant things that happen in our day to day lives can decide the course of events and choices that we make further down the line. Just like what the chaos theory states. To eleminate chaos from our lives we would have to live for the moment, which will never happen because we will always let what we see, hear, do etc affect us on some level!

According to my little sister though (she went to see it at the pics) the director's cut (the one that I watched tonight) has a completely different ending to the one that is shown in the pictures, even the 2 (maybe 3) alternative endings that were included as bonuses were not the same as the cinema ending. Oh and the ending on the directors cut doesn't have the Oasis song in it!!

I really liked it,took a while to understand but the second time you watch it...amazing!

KEV - NFT · 10th October 2004, 06:35 AM

i noticed that thing about the ending aswell...it's totaly differant from the others (maybe not totaly) i liked the british ending better than the american ending

trickyvicki · 10th October 2004, 10:03 AM

Well my wee sis said that she prefered the ending she saw in the cinema but I thought the ending that was on the directors cut was a very clever way of bringing things to an end
