Oh, except it isn’t about time travel at all. It’s about parallel universes. But you won’t get that from the film, because it goes to great lengths to shout TIME TRAVEL TIME TRAVEL TIME TRAVEL at you until you wish for a DeLorean and Biff Tannen to rescue you from this turgid Red Dwarf nonsense."

Written by Goaty by the way, I happen to like it. But then, I 'cried' at the end of Eternal Sunshine. Psshaw.

Most clever films (or pretentious) at least try to make a point. DD just ambles about and then expects you to understand how profound what it said was. When it said sod all.
Just maybe a bit, I dunno, trying to be to clever for its own good.
And loads of Goths preached it with delight.
EDIT: When I say 'clever', I mean 'make it as stupidly complicated as possible so you have to watch it at least two times to fully understand what the bloody hell is going on'
Hmm, come to think of it, it's below average.
No wait, it's crap.
So my ex bought me the DVD to watch... didn't miss much.
Haha
Goatboy is a funny beatch
Even better is the results it can produce from those that watch it as they scratch their heads and go 'I don't get it' well did you 'get' the ending of Timebandits?
If you enjoyed it then great, but to get annoyed because you can't comprehend everything about it is pretty funny really. If it makes you think, is interesting viewing and has you thinking about it months later then you've got your moneys worth.
Not everything has to make sense aslong as it's an enjoyable experience.
But the point is DD pretends to say stuff, and yet it has no message at all.
Except, 'sacrifice yourself'.
Hooray.....
