Looper (2012) & Timecrimes (2007): Future Self Showdowns
"You're going to kill this guy, your own self?" In this episode of Journey Through Sci-Fi, we explore two time-travel films built around the idea of causal loops. First we discuss Looper (2012), Rian Johnson’s sci-fi thriller about assassins who kill targets sent back from the future — including, eventually, their own older selves. Then we look at Timecrimes (2007), the Spanish sci-fi film about an ordinary man who accidentally becomes trapped in a tightly constructed time loop involving multiple versions of himself. Together these films show how time-travel stories can become intricate puzzles where the past, present and future are all part of the same loop.
