I prefer Haruhi since I like the fatalist interpretation of time over the malleable parallel worlds of Back to the future. Makes for easier fun and hijinks though

Also you are wrong because bttf basically allowed rick and morty to exist whereas haruhi allowed a company to reproduce an episode 8 times and kill interest in a good series

What a fascinatingly unusual cock. Now, allow me to show you my collection...
I enjoyed the Endless 8, because I was really high at the time I watched it.

The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya is very good, because it addresses something I dislike in film/books which is the hero usually chooses the life of mundanity, but here the mundane life is the alien choice. However, without the series, the film doesn't make a lot of sense.

Endless Eight is great but if we're talking about anime with time/parallel universe travel I gotta say Tatami Galaxy is where it's at

man what



The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is a better anime.

also the best time travel (or timey wimey) movies are the low budget indie ones. Triangle, Timecrimes, Time Lapse.

Despite its hipster cred with the hot topic crowd, i've always had a soft spot for Donnie Darko because im a sucker for unreliable narration and period pieces.

Second place is "Back to the Future 2"

Third place? I guess that canadian "Doctor who" TV movie with Paul Mcgann.
