It can be regarded as countless world lines. If it is not a particularly big thing, such as killing the rainmaker, it will not affect the large-scale changes in the timeline. All people are still basically the same. Live your own life in the world line. Only when an event with a very large rate of change occurs, will you jump to other world lines. Everyone's memory is instantly reconstructed and a new world begins.
Old Joe's role is more like Rentaro Okabe, and I suspect that the rainmaker is also, who can keep the memory of the original world line after the world line changes.
There are a lot of world lines in the film
1. The most common world line, everyone is normally sealed, and everyone has spent the last 30 years peacefully. It is better to have a personal point of view. The ring should be sealed before the first person to pass through (the leader of the organization) returns to the past, otherwise the world line will deviate, so there is this behavior of sealing the ring.
2. The world line where the rainmaker appeared. For some reason, the rainmaker wanted to eliminate all the loopers and send them back to the past one by one to be killed by their young self. In fact, it is similar to the first world line, the rate of change It's not big, the difference is that the rainmaker has accelerated the speed of sealing the ring, so everyone just thinks that the rainmaker suddenly appeared, and Lao Qiao didn't remember that he killed his mother and created the rainmaker, so this world The line's rainmaker should not have been created because of Lao Qiao's killing of his mother.
3. Lao Qiao travels back to the world line where Xiao Qiao lost his ring 30 years ago. Since the loss of the link is an emergency, the world line may change, and the old and the young must seize it. It may be that the old is afraid of what will affect the world line and finally affect the entire organization because of his 30 years of experience. Bar. Of course, there are bugs in this place. The thing about people sticks is obvious. If a person has been slashed like this, can he still live normally for 30 years before crossing back.
On this world line, Lao Qiao destroyed the headquarters of the organization, and there are bugs in this place. If the organization is destroyed, will he be able to send him back after 30 years? It can only be considered that the organization 30 years ago is the same as that of 30 years ago. The organization that sent them back after the year has a certain cooperative relationship, but the connection is not very close. Like mercenaries, they do things with money and do not belong to a specific organization.
In this world line, Lao Qiao killed his mother, and a rainmaker was born. At the last moment, Xiao Qiao suddenly realized that the cycle behind was actually caused by himself, so he committed suicide and this world line was changed.
There is also a bug here, that's why Lao Qiao doesn't remember the thing about killing his mother. Could it be that another old looper did it? In that case, he will kill him, it's just a slight change in the timeline, maybe as long as he kills his mother, the memory It will be completely refactored to form a complete ring.
But is the world line changed by Xiao Qiao the original first or second world line? Certainly not, because Lao Qiao no longer exists, it is possible that the changed world line will still include rainmakers and time machines. , Feng Huan, and Xu Qing, but these have nothing to do with Lao Qiao.
