The plot of the previous story is abbreviated.
Third timeline
In this timeline, we meet these conditions:
The boy did not go out on the night of the crime and was not killed by a car.
The boy witnessed the dismemberment, like a police report, but was not believed because of the murderer's tricks.
The boy received a 20-year video call of himself and explained some things (the director passed by vaguely)
The boy did not disrupt the original timeline of the heroine.
The hostess fell in love with her husband and gave birth to a daughter.
The heroine woke up suddenly, with the memories of the first two timelines, but no third.
(Director's setting: Anyone who has touched the TV switch can have the memories of other timelines before, and the memories in the new timeline can be unlocked by touching them.)
The hostess was in the room and could not find the old TV.
This is very important, because without the old TV, the heroine would not interfere with 1989 through TV three days ago, and there would be no second timeline.
The hostess found the murderer's hidden body and successfully exposed the old case.
The hostess met the boy again, and the two fell in love again.
The daughter is also there, the love is also there, the murder case is solved, and the heroine is complete.
Seeing this, the whole movie is basically three timelines, and finally collapsed and merged into a solid line.
The movie has no parallel universes, only the butterfly effect. So this solid line finally became a reality.
In each circle, the little boy changed the trajectory of his destiny after receiving instructions from the future.
Everything seems to be perfect, but there is only one BUG.
That is, if the heroine of the third timeline has not changed the boy's fate with television. But the boy survived again, so how did the boy survive in the third timeline?
That is the place where the BUG is marked in my picture.
This bug, we call it: the contradiction between the sequence of movie development and the establishment of the third timeline.
The place of the bug, which is the beginning of the story, is because the heroine saved the boy through the video call, so there is the following story.
However, because of the butterfly effect many times, we now come to the third timeline. (It's just that the male protagonist and the female protagonist still maintain the memory of 3 timelines in theory.)
However, in this timeline, the heroine does not have a TV, so the boy had no choice but to save himself if he wanted not to be hit by a car.
That is, in the second timeline, the male protagonist tells himself as a child that when you grow up, you must tell yourself through this storm not to interfere with the female protagonist’s normal marriage and childbirth, or she will commit suicide.
But at the same time you have to save yourself. So you have to be in the same place, holding the TV to talk to yourself.
The male protagonist can steal the TV the day before the storm, and then on the first day of the storm, the female protagonist quietly conducts a rescue call on the day that the female protagonist just moved, and then takes the TV away to form a perfect timeline. (Reluctantly)
But this will still cause bugs, that is, in this chronological order, the male protagonist was saved twice when he was a child, once was saved by the female protagonist, this has already existed in the first line, and once the male protagonist saved it by himself. It is now the third line.
The narrative of the movie is the sequence of the first line, the second line and the third line, and the last three lines merge into a solid line.
The heroine keeps the memory of the first two dotted lines.
But in the memory of the third line, the memory of the male protagonist will be changed and become the memory of the third line, which is to save yourself.
But then, the hostess said that you just don't remember , so two people have three lines of memory at the same time, so the bug is reasonable.
Of course, this is only physically reasonable, but it is not yet reasonable in memory.
That is, the male protagonist here has two memories. Was I saved by myself or was saved by the female protagonist?
The answer in the correct chronological order is that the hostess saved me, I will tell myself to save myself, and then I will save myself. But because the previous ones have been emptied, only the third one is left.
It can be understood here that the three lines merge into a chaotic special memory, and the male protagonist and the female protagonist have these three memories alone because of this magical experience.
The setting of the guide speech is also owned by the person who presses the switch of the TV, so the male lead and the female lead are similar to having the protagonist aura.
So everything makes sense. (Slightly reluctant, but it can be rounded up. No wonder the director has to obscure the past, because it is really difficult to express)
Therefore, although there are flaws, the movie can actually make sense.
Do you understand?
