Why Do People Find Time Travel So Fascinating?
July 31st, 2009
People seem to be fascinated with time travel books, movies and television shows. At times it seems that whenever you open the television, there’s a television show that deals with it. And many of them aren’t even original, but are rehashed versions of existing movies or novels.
When one thinks about it, it’s actually pretty obvious why this is the case. Time Travel allows us to see the far future and witness how it all turns out. Time Travel enables us to visit the past and view history first hand - discover what really happened. Time Travel enables us to change our own history - or even better - everyone’s past and future. Time Travel enables us to create intricate, paradoxical stories that are not only fun but are also intelligent (i.e. think about the Back to the Future movie).
Personally, I have discovered that reading all time travel books and watching all time travel movies is one of my passions. So I have decided to create a site for that purpose. Unsurprisingly, many people have contacted me with questions and suggestions, and even several authors asked me to advertise their books. Time Travel is simply a popular subject.
In my website, Ultimate Time Travel, I aim to review every book, movie and television show that deals with Time Travel. Although I am far lagging behind the great number - I simply don’t have enough time (pun intended) - I’ve written quite a few reviews so far. If you find this topic interesting, please come take a look. And I can assure you: if Back to the Future part 4 ever comes out, I’m going to be the first to review it. That’s a promise!
