Some thoughts on watching movies

The precious metal is precious, and the so-called precious metal is the metal with relatively little stock in the world. Therefore, gold and silver are valuable because the amount is small, and the amount is not worth much. Every gold or silver bar was sent 30 years ago, and after 30 years it must return to its original era. That is to say, every time a silver bar is paid to the looper, it is equivalent to making a copy of the silver bar in its own era. The scale of this organization seems to be very large. I am afraid that it will not operate for a few years, and the gold and silver in the future (207x) will be as cheap as shit. Inside and outside is equivalent to coaxing the foolish boy 30 years ago with the least valuable things, and he was very happy.

I wonder why the job of looper is not given to middle-aged and elderly people. There are many reasons: 1. Don't worry about the troublesome things like arresting people and sealing the ring after 30 years; 2. Stimulating the re-employment of middle-aged and elderly people 30 years ago and improving the economy; 3. Anyway, this job is very simple, just shoot a still life at close range with a gun , 90 years old can be competent, it is too wasteful to use young people.

Traversal is one-way, as is the flow of information. In other words, such a large group of loopers have been busy for so long, and they have no idea whether the future boss has been replaced or not, and they have no reason to be given fake gold. The future boss doesn't know what the situation of the looper team was 30 years ago. If the looper team is wiped out in one fell swoop, and the boss 30 years later doesn't even know a fart, and continues to throw people back, the world will soon be destroyed...

Looper quotes

  • Older Joe: This is a piece of indentifying information on the Rainmaker. He's here. He lives here now. In this county. And I'm gonna use this to find him. And I'm gonna kill him. I'm gonna stop him from killing my wife.

    Joe: Fuck you. And your wife. None of this concerns me.

    Older Joe: This is gonna happen...

    Joe: It happened to you. It doesn't have to happen to me. You got a picture right there in my watch? Let me see. Show me the picture. As soon as I see her, I walk away. I'll fucking marry someone else. Promise. So when I see that picture, that fog inside your brain should just swallow up all the memories, right? She'll be gone. If you give her up, she'll be safe.

    Older Joe: Give her up?

    Joe: Yeah, give her up. You're the one who got her killed. She never meets you, she's safe.

    Older Joe: You don't understand. We don't have to give her up. I'm not gonna give her up. I'm gonna save her.

  • Joe: There's a reason we're called loopers. When we sign up for this job, taking out the future's garbage, we also agree to a very specific proviso. Time travel in the future is so illegal, that when our employers want to close our contracts, they'll also want to erase any trace of their relationship with us ever existing. So if we're still alive 30 years from now, they'll find our older self, zap him back to us, and we'll kill him like any other job. This is called closing your loop. Eh, you get a golden payday, you get a handshake, and you get released from your contract. Enjoy the next 30 years. This job doesn't tend to attract the most forward-thinking people.
