@jiaoyinyang *2 weeks later* Sorry for the late response. But I'll explain. In the video, they said that if you kill a mouse, then another spieci(?) won't find food, and die. Then the next speici(?) doesn't get food, then they die, and it's like a cycle. If Ekels stepped on the butterfly, then something that eats butterflies dies. Which in this case, spiders, and bugs. Then bears doesn't survive because no bugs or spiders. Just warms and little food. So many people die from not eating.
@jiaoyinyang When I said many people die from not eating, maybe the ancestors of the people who invented words may have never been born, making other people think this is how you really spell it.
Nowadays english isn't the same than 1000 years ago.
So in this new world, oraly, english evolved the same, but its written evolution was slightly different, leading to a more logical way to write it than the one we use.
Everything trickles down to something; cause and effect; Eckels stepped of the path and killed the insect, and that somehow produced a massive scale domino effect into a future with an illiterate society and an illiterate ruler from hell. Which proves that bugs can get you screwed in other ways that biting you and injecting disease or toxins.
@snorlax140 lolcat isnt really anything. Its actually the combination of funny cat pictures and or videos. Some kids stupid made up word with 23 other stupid kids supporting that jargon.
In the story I think it would be safe to guess that maybe Travis killed himself because it never says the gun was pointed at Eckel. If he did kill Eckel he would still have to live in the new world, but if he killed himself he would be free. I don't know, just a thought.
@sirenpacificus i was thinking the exact sing thing when I read the story.but i was also thinking...it didnt change much. people just cant spell and a different guy got elected once.
@Domination1017 Well I have to disagree about that last part. The way they made it seem, it sounded like they were voting between Hitler and Gandhi, you know what I mean? Who would you want as your president?
@sirenpacificus i must have read it wrong then. because i though the big reason they didnt want him to be elected was because he didnt like time travel. must have read it to fast then. but still thats the only changes. everything else is exactly the same. odd dont you think?
"A sound of thunder" is repeated twice in the short story. Describing the entrance of the dinosaur, and when Travis shoots Eckels at the end. The butterfly was killed, and it somehow affected their government, being ruled under a dictatorship, which affected either A) their language, or B) their education (Explaining the spelling on the sign).
Wait a minute. He killed the butterfly millions of years ago. That means that in the future it would have already happened, which means it wouldn't have had any effect at all.
@therandomninjaguy But prior to the trip when he killed the butterfly, the buttefly had lived, giving them the present which they departed from. Only after the trip had the butterfly been killed in the past of the new present.
@zelgarath123 the sound of thunder at the end is Travis shooting eckels because it says Travis raised his rifle and there was a sound of thunder. It's supposed to be ironic.
hmm in the story it says "there was a sound of thunder' but when they describe the T-rex it says it made a sound of thunder. which doesnt mean eckels gets shot. it means the dinosaurs survived
@cimerax By writing that comment you changed the future man you could have talked to someone who was suicidal and now he killed himself because you werent there, and that suicidal man would have found the cure for all diseases THANKS NOW WERE ALL FUCKED!
How could you go into the past AT ALL without altering the future or creating a parallel universe? Simply by altering a breeze, something sent into the past could alter the position of an atom and change everything. I pose the question: how is it possible for anything sent into the past to not alter the future/create a different future?
What i dont get is how a little butterfly could do such a huge effect. i mean, werent there millions oof other butterfly out there?? ANYWAYS, i like this story. :)
Yes, but one butterfly dies when it shouldn't and therefore generations of butterflys don't come into existence which means millions, billions of butterflys so maybe because of that something that feeds on butterflys doesn't have butterflys to eat and eats something it shouldn't and dies and something that was going to eat that animal dies and so on.
Correct. If something happens when it shouldn't have happened history can change. Just think if the asteroid that hit earth 65 million years ago had been diverted. According to scientists the dinosaurs wouldn't have died and we wouldn't be here. Time travel is my favorite subject but I don't understand half of the theories behind it
@kevinlemus95 every butterfly evolved, if one stayed behind there would be changes, its not the butterfly, its the animal that eats it, didnt get to eat it, do dind poop it out, that could for instance fertileize a plant wich would be eaten by another animal, and so on and on
Really? Mr. Travis explained that. That one butterfly might have carried thousands of eggs, those thousands of eggs might've fed millions of animals, but without those, they died and in effect the future is changed.
This was a classic episode of one of my favorite shows growing up. Been looking for this version for a while after seeing that abortion of a movie in 2005 that claimed to be based on the Bradbury story.
From reading the book, I thought for sure Eckels was shot by Travis. But on the quiz I took in school for it one of the questions was about what I thought happened at the end. And the movie proves it was Travis who shot Eckels, not himself. The gun was pointed at Eckels. Eckels was an idiot.
@phildaguy What would have been funny is if they come back and the evolved T-rex now sitting at the reception desk turns to them and says: So how'd it go? You look kinda different..."
you know what when i read this in school and the teacher asked what do you think happened, noone guessed travis commited suicide and that very well might have been what ray b meant good observation
The story was, they got a Super-great president elected before they went back, but when they got back, the entire world was screwed up to them. There was no way to go back and stop it because they couldn't meet themselves and create a paradox. So, he ruined the entire history and Earth, so he had a reason to shoot him. Hell, I'd shoot him for that.
@milaeighteen lolcat? Really? Whose ass did you pull that out of? Hope it wasnt your own. Stop making up words that have no meaning let alone arent even in the dictionary. Damn is this where todays youth is heading?
Pretty well done movie overall, although the dinosaur wasn't much bigger than a horse.
