Time Travel is Imperfect and Noisy

This week, SepTIMEber continues as we head back to 14th century France to launch real fireballs out of real trebuchets alongside real Montreal LARPers in a rare misstep from a true master of the popcorn flick. It's 2003's Timeline, directed by Richard Donner, based on the book by Michael Crichton, and starring Paul Walker, Frances O'Connor, Gerard Butler, Billy Connolly, David Thewlis, Anna Friel, Neal McDonough, Ethan Embry, Matt Craven, Michael Sheen, Lambert Wilson, Marton Csokas and Rossif Sutherland. Two movies into this theme month and we already be down bad with Stockholm Syndrome, as the dire straits of The Time Machine made this film look like an oasis in the desert comparatively. Alas, it is a deeply flawed flick to be sure, and for the very first time one of our hosts could not make it over the finish line. Plus: a bit of listener mail makes Hayley finally explain her longstanding beef with Ted Lasso.

If you'd like to watch the movie before listening to our conversation, good luck! Despite being a Paramount movie, Timeline is not available on Paramount+ but is rentable on YouTube and the Cineplex app at the time of publication.

Other works discussed on this episode include Rebel Ridge, Green Room, Blue Ruin, Kinds of Kindness, Poor Things, The Favourite, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, The Emperor's New Groove, Child's Play, M3GAN, English Teacher, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Jurassic Park III, Almost Live!, Ready Player One, Backspot, I Like Movies, Sabrina Carpenter's album Short & Sweet, The Dana Carvey Show, Too Funny To Fail, 300, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Midnight in Paris, Pushing Daisies, A.I.: Artificial Intelligence, Olympus Has Fallen, Greenland, Geostorm, Superman II, The Goonies, Lethal Weapon, Maverick, Radio Flyer, The 13th Warrior, Sky Captain & The World of Tomorrow, Paycheck and The Perfect Score.

We'll be back next week with a little ADHD-TPB, as SepTIMEber rolls on with a movie J Mo torrented off the internet roughly 15 years ago and never got around to actually watching: 1979's Time After Time, starring Malcolm McDowell and David Warner as H.G. Wells and Jack The Ripper respectively. Sounds like fun, right? Here's hoping! It is also not available on streaming, but once again is rentable on YouTube. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!

tss summer 2024

In a wild time travel novel, Mark McKenna and the crew of Time Portal Alpha board a vehicle which had only simulated journeys back in time. The maniacal Dr. Nieeko Mauro, a man both genius and evil has broken the time barrier to radically alter the current timeline. Nieeko wishes to diminish the United States of America into a minor world power, seething in poverty and unable to economically take care of its own people. A point in time exists in the twentieth century where Nieeko altered the timeline and prevents a project that brought economic growth to America in the 20th century. McKenna is confronted by Nieeko with unforeseen circumstances and a surprise ending.

'A beautifully written love story that travels beyond epic' ANSTEY HARRIS, author of THE HOUSE OF LOST SECRETS

From the critically acclaimed author of THE RULES OF SEEING and WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS 

 Jem and Mika have never met.

Jem and Mika's lives have intertwined, again and again, across lifetimes.

Have you ever locked eyes with a stranger and felt that you know them?

When perfect strangers Mika and Jem first meet by chance, they recognise each other – not from life, but from a shared dream. Both are wary of forming new connections and have their demons to fight: Jem is in recovery from a near-fatal accident, and Mika is undocumented and under scrutiny from the authorities.

As their dreams – or are they memories? – grow in intensity, they are forced to consider the possibility that they have known and loved each other over and over, across the centuries. Will they find happiness together this time?

Moving from present-day London through eras and across continents, LIFE NUMBER NINE is an epic literary achievement and a groundbreaking love story.

Life Number Nine, By Joe Heap, Read by Sofia Engstrand

"Time Rangers" is a journey through time and fate, where past and future collide in an endless battle. The protagonists of this story are guardians of time, forced to fight to preserve what remains of reality. With epic riffs and cinematic atmospheres, the song explores the sense of responsibility and the weight of choices that can alter the course of history. Are you ready to join the war of time?

Jack Killed Hyde is a musical project born in 2020, during the pandemic, when Valerio Morgante and Gloria Sheikholeslami started writing songs inspired by a post-apocalyptic world. Their first compositions capture the anguish and hope of that time, using imagery of bunkers and radiation to explore deep emotions such as loneliness and resilience.

In 2024, the project evolved, involving other musicians: Lucia Guarino on bass, Stefano Fagioli on rhythm guitar, and David Mosca on drums. Together, they expanded their vision, creating a concept album that delves into themes like love torn apart by war and the fight against oppression, all wrapped in a powerful and striking sound.

With a style that blends alternative metal and immersive performances, Jack Killed Hyde doesn't just play music—they tell stories, transporting the audience into a dystopian universe. Their live shows are immersive experiences, where every note and every word invite reflection on universal issues.

Ready to make their mark on the music scene, Jack Killed Hyde aims to deeply connect with their audience, facing the challenges of the present together.
