Déjà Vu (Film)

   Déjà Vu is a really really good movie, you guys. Forget all of the other time travel movies. None of those others have got a car chase IN TIME, meaning he's chasing a car in the past so he can track it while he's still in the present!

   There's kind of a problem with the timelines, though. The time travel science can't seem to make up its mind. (And most of the criticism levied against the film was in its portrayal of post-Katrina New Orleans...!)

   The explanation: multiple trips through time, by multiple Dougs. There's a really neat diagram on Wikipedia that explains all of this, but it's kind of too big to fit here, so I'll just link it. Link. I hope you get that. It may or may not be in danger of coming down, since it may or may not be original research on the part of... hold on... User:Wildonrio. Citation needed, and all that. But, hey, it's a good theory, and I'm saying so now, all of that is how I think it went down, so you can cite this!

   But Eric, you may say to yourself, wouldn't that be a paradox, Wikipedia citing you citing Wikipedia which itself cites you? To which I say: yes it would. But there sure aren't any paradoxes in Déjà Vu.
