If you aren't smart enough to write a time travel movie, don't write one.
[SPOILERS]
This movie will beat you around the head and neck with the cudgel of stupidity.
If you had a math test in 30 years that was going to be brutal would you spend 30 years studying for it and developing a better calculator or would you use a time machine go go take it right now?
Now if the writer Zach Dean is your Phone-a-Friend for Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, there are some things that you should know that he doesn't understand how they work. This list includes Time travel, humans, aliens, mass, meat, math, ice, firearms, airplanes, cast charges, global warming, C4, strategy, military recall, military ranks command and promotion, narcotics, air superiority, armor, politics, fire, international relations, that the F35 will still not be ready for duty in 30 years, transporting dangerous animals, space, technology, poison, MREs, and exactly how long I could continue this list.
So before you go and break Zach's heart by telling him you weird uncle will now be your Phone-a-Friend, there are some things Zach does know. He knows how to copy and paste from Aliens, Starship Troopers, the movie where Tom Cruise dies a lot, and things which have been copied and pasted so many times they have become tropes and then clichés. Do to this, the only things that you don't see coming will be the things whose stupidity defies predictability.
