Back to the Future makes my head hurt:
"Follow this: let us suppose that Marty is unable to repair the damage he has done; let us further suppose that no one else intervenes to repair this damage. (It would be possible that somehow George and Lorraine would still meet and marry, perhaps after high school, under other circumstances, and Marty would still be born; as unlikely as it seems, it is important to remember that Marty does not have to be the one to fix the timeline, as long as the timeline is repaired.) Now George does not marry Lorraine, and Marty is not born. Since Marty is not born, he does not return in Doc's time machine; and therefore he does not interfere in the meeting of his parents, and therefore he is born, and therefore he does. These two alternate histories would repeat in perpetuity."
My favorite part of the entire movie takes place at the 3:55 mark in the above clip.

Haven't seen that trilogy on TBS recently....
My favorite part is when Marty McFly goes back in time, sees how his parents lived when they were his age, and then goes back to 1985. I also like the Delorean. And the Huey Lewis inspired soundtrack.
