- Our three co-hosts are stuck in the multiverse and need to get back to their home universe. Clearly, the only way to do that is to explore our cultural obsession with multiverses, alternate timelines and parallel worlds, and tie it all into a conversation about post-modern art, pop culture, and the lessons these stories teach us. Also, each episode, one of them is an asshole who will probably sabotage the whole thing.
This week we discuss 2006’s The Lake House, with Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock!

This one makes me want them to cover Frequency haha
Me too, I love that movie even though it's insane.
Kate and Leopold. Hugh Jackman is a man from late 19th century New York, who invents the elevator, and Meg Ryan--with the worst haircut of her career--is a cynical market researcher, whose ex (Liev Schreiber) discovers time travel. He ends up travelling back in time, and sees his own great great grandfather, Hugh's character. Lopold follows him back, but then in a mad series of happenstances Liev's character ends up hospitalized stranding Hugh in the past where he meets Kate. You guys should check it out, it's so weird. Came out in 2001. (Spoilers for an over 20 y/o movie, down below)
The related thing is that Liev's ex-girlfriend Kate, is very likely his own great, great grandmother.
Wait, what was the thing in Arrival that they should have known earlier? You realize that the 'narrative' part of that film is the Amy Adams character discovering what the language does to your perception of time?
He wasn't saying any specific thing, he literally explains the same thing you do. He was saying that the way it ends up & the way the audience has to be fed the information for the sake of a functioning narrative don't mesh.
