ABC123 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 It has been awhile since I saw this movie, but when I did see it I know I fell in love with Hugh Jackman. If I recall in the movie, Jackman's character was somehow transported to the future. He was the inventor of the elevator. As a result, the elevators in the current day shut down. My first question is wouldn't all the buildings have no elevators if the maker did not live in the past to actually invent them or would someone else had invented them in his place? My second question is could the female character actually go back in time and live with him, if it is before the time she was born? I may remember the movie incorrectly. Any insight is welcome.

kana_marie Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 It seems like the elevator was one of those inventions that was inevitable. It may not have been as soon, but never underestimate the laziness of people and what can come out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiseman05 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Got to agree with Kana above. It just seems that an elevator is one of those things that as soon as the right technology came around, it would be the first thing to be invented. Especially since it's really simple in design. It's just cables, levers, and a box. As far as the movie goes. If the Hugh Jackman character went forward in time despite being the inventor of the elevator, then realistically the elevators either would stop existing, or they would be but invented by someone else. Not stop working altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
