oh my gosh. i just saw the movie...wow....as i have said before, i read the book, and also saw the old movie just after that. is everyone sure that the movie is about the same "the time machine" by H.G. Wells?!?!?! the only things that were at all the same were that the guy makes a time machine, and goes to the future and finds that the human race was divided into eloi and morlocks. and the morlocks eat the eloi. that is about it. the movie i didnt understand at all. it made no sense to me. for a while it did, but...wow...the special effects were pretty sweet though. and i thought the old movie had a few differences!! remind me not to complain about the lotr movies having slight variations. oh something i found interesting:the eloi that "alex" talks to is named mara. very close to maura. oh yeah by the way, the morlocks remind me of orcs. a little. ok well anyway i think i will stick to the old movie with it's not so great special effects, thank you.
