Easily overlooked theme details + new traversal concept

I think what is most easily overlooked by everyone is the setting of justice and evil. Because Joe is the male protagonist, we habitually think that he is the right party, but at the same time we ignore that Joe is actually a killer who kills countless people and sells his life for money. Of course, other ring messengers are also the same in a corrupt society by killing people. Professional criminals. In the future 30 years later, the appearance of the phantom rain master was described by the ring messengers as a cruel villain, because he used his own TK ability to control the five major groups, and all the ring messengers were sealed, yes, this way The behavior is indeed devastating for the ring messenger. In fact, the behavior of the rain phantom is not to make the ring messenger disappear completely, so that this assassin alliance that is equivalent to killing people for profit is no longer a disaster to the society. Therefore, to a certain extent, the Rainmaker is the only character standing on the side of justice in the whole film.


After such an interpretation, we will re-watch the ending. I believe that some viewers will guess the ending. The elderly Joe kills Sarah. It aroused the anger of the phantom rain master. He will seal all the ring messengers in the future. At this time, we are smart enough to fall into the inertial thinking of crossing like young Joe. He has to choose to commit suicide, but in fact, things may not happen in this way. This ending is also Joe’s conjecture. Let’s imagine that if the elderly Joe can kill Sarah first and then kill the phantom rain master, then the elderly Joe may be able to go back to the future to be with Xu Qing again, and the young Joe can also start life again.


Of course, there is a paradox here. Old Joe will have such a life only after the ring was sealed. Now that young Joe has not sealed the ring, he has changed a lot of history. It is very likely that he will return to the future. So the next story is brand new. Joe's life trajectory is no longer in the original development, so I am here to propose a concept of "initial crossing" and "circular crossing".


Cycling: The traversing here refers to the infinite loop of the historical trajectory that the traverser is traversing. There are countless people repeating this traversal before or after him. For example, Xiang Shaolong in "Xun Qin Ji" discovered the time traverser in modern times before returning to the past. In the final ending, he stayed in the ancient times and left the time traversal device. According to the historical chronological order, it should be the ancient Xiang Shaolong who left the time traversal device before the modern Xiang Shaolong can get it and travel back. So, did the ancient Xiang Shaolong come first? In modern Xiang Shaolong, if it is the former, then how can he have a traversing device, if it is the latter, then it is impossible for him to find a traversing device in archaeology.


Therefore, the characteristic of the cycle crossing is that the beginning of the crossing trace cannot be found, but it can change the history. In this way, it will restart a round of crossing, which is the following "initial crossing"


initial crossing: as the name implies, the first round Traversing, because of changing history, caused the beginning of "circular crossing". Here we are connected to the plot of the movie. Originally, Qiao’s life track was to seal the ring and then go to Shanghai to live for 30 years. He was sent to the past to be killed, but for Xu Qing’s sake, the old Qiao here decided to change his fate and went back to the past to kill the childhood fantasy. Yushi, therefore, the cycle through which Joe's life trajectory is presented is the following movie.


Many TV movies believe that history cannot be changed, but I think otherwise. Once the "initial crossing" appears, it means that the historical change has escaped from the original "circular crossing", and the only memory that can concretize history will also change in an instant. If the current and future you travel to the past and change your history at a certain stage, then your memory will change accordingly, so that it seems to you as if nothing happened, because you have not changed why, In fact, everything has changed.
Regarding the movie, I have a little question:
Why didn’t Joe’s employer kill the young Joe instead of capturing it alive? If you just kill Jon Cerf, Willis will die, so you can save a lot of trouble



. PS. Jon Cerf’s hitRECord just released a music album called "move on the sun" not long ago. The song of the same name is very nice, I'm here to promote this company.

hitRECord.org is a website created by JGL and his brother Dan as early as 2004. At the beginning, it was just a website for uploading videos. It seemed to be earlier than your tube. Later, many artists from all over the world joined and became An Internet video cooperation community has been established. A production company was established in 2010. In other words, uploading a video or music on that website means that it will be edited or adapted by others by acquiescence.

Then there were countless collaborative works. What is "cooperation"?

For example: a girl uploads a cappella song on hitRECord, the melody is very simple, the lyrics are also very simple, a cappella, and then she writes "please accompaniment", and then someone downloads the audio, adding orchestra or guitar Accompaniment, then upload. Then someone made this synthesized audio into an mv, the completion degree is very high, you can hardly hear her originally recorded a cappella by the microphone at home. This is called cooperation.
