The 80s, of course 😀
It really did have some awesome ones. How did you do?
I only got the first three
LOL
I did get the first three correct…….. 🙂
Nice. You might even do better on one of the other time travel quizzes 🙂
We shall see……. 🙂
The Terminator is definitely my favourite! Plus you have to time travel naked!
Ha. How did you do?
Got the first 3 but not the last 2 😦
i recognized 2 and 5 but how could you forget The Time Travelers Wife? hehe 🙂
I have only done one part don’t worry 🙂 I did have a long debate about certain films. Does Groundhog Day count as time travel?
haha 😉 well it depends on how you see it. I mean his day kept repeating over and over again so I really think its not time traveling.
It won’t be in any of the ones here. He doesn’t travel through time but is frozen in time. Time travel means going from one time to another. I’m all about fine details haha. Same reason why Forever Young won’t be in there either.
forever young is not a time traveling movie. Like you said time traveling is traveling through time. He just stays closed up until 1992 and eventually gets old.
Ha! That wasn’t the tagline mind.
ha yeah. Did you enjoy the movie?
It was OK. Felt like a TV movie from what I remember.
4/6 never saw the fountain or One day
It’s not a bad score. I’ll be interested to see how you do in the other parts.
I got them all except for One Day and Frequency. Haven’t seen either of those ones yet!
A good score. I suppose One Day was the tricky one.
4/6. Feeling pretty good but not great. Didn’t know The Fountain or One Day!
I think I actually saw Frequency at the cinema. 4/6 isn’t bad at all. I’ll be doing at least two more parts.
Only got 3! You just reminded me that I have to watch One Day..haha! 🙂
Midnight in Paris is lovely if you get the chance to see it.
Yup..already have 🙂 Its very awesome! Probably should revisit it soon!
Nice 🙂
I knew 1-4. Really should make a point of watching those last two, more recent options.
Midnight in Paris is enchanting. I really think you’d enjoy it 🙂
That’s what everyone says. 🙂
Got the first three – at a loss for the second – Oh well.
