Models of Time Travel
MODELS OF TIME TRAVEL A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING FILMS Guy Roland Micklethwait A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July 2012 National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences APPENDIX I: FILMS REVIEWED Each of the following film reviews has been reduced to two pages. The first page of each of each review is objective; it includes factual information about the film and a synopsis not of the plot, but of how temporal phenomena were treated in the plot. The second page of the review is subjective; it includes the genre where I placed the film, my general comments and then a brief discussion about which model of time I felt was being used and why. It finishes with a diagrammatic representation of the timeline used in the film. Note that if a film has only one diagram, it is because the different journeys are using the same model of time in the same way. Sometimes several journeys are made. The present moment on any timeline is always taken at the start point of the first time travel journey, which is placed at the origin of the graph. The blue lines with arrows show where the time traveller’s trip began and ended. They can also be used to show how information is transmitted from one point on the timeline to another. When choosing a model of time for a particular film, I am not looking at what happened in the plot, but rather the type of timeline used in the film to describe the possible outcomes, as opposed to what happened. -

25. STAR TREK: GENERATIONS Overture 16-38
DISC ONE: FILM SCORE 1. Main Title The first six STAR TREK films, despite their varied tones, feature bold and declarative main title cues—energetic anthems that promise high adventure amongst the stars. GENERATIONS takes a more reflective and subdued approach, opening with a splash of shimmering, synth-enhanced textures and a mysterioso four-note device (a variant of what will become the film's threat motive). As a lone champagne bottle arcs through the vacuum of space, clustered tones swell majestically under the title, and a quasi-religious chorus wordlessly voices McCarthy’s theme for the paradisiacal Nexus. The threat motive variant resurfaces briefly, before swirling harp and keyboard usher in an ennobling melody for trumpet. This is the first of McCarthy’s “captain’s themes,” used to represent Starfleet and its lofty ideals. Ascending figures culminate in joyous French horn exclamations of Alexander Courage’s classic STAR TREK fanfare from the original television series, as the bottle shatters against the hull of the USS Enterprise-B. 2. Past Glory Mark tree and harp glissandi maintain the dreamlike atmosphere as Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner), Montgomery Scott (James Doohan) and Pavel Chekov (Walter Koenig) step onto the bridge of the new Enterprise, where Captain John Harriman (Alan Ruck) greets them as honored guests. The Courage fanfare plays softly as Kirk takes in the scene, moving into a statement of the Starfleet theme as Chekov introduces Demora Sulu (Jacqueline Kim), the daughter of Kirk’s former helmsman. The cue finishes with a gentle horn line as Kirk contemplates the rapid passage of years. -
