If you read movie reviews on IMDB now and again, you might come across someone saying “That’s 2 hours I’ll never get back”, or something similar (e.g. here, here and here), about a movie they didn’t enjoy. Since us regular folk don’t get back the time we spend watching a movie, even if we enjoy it, I must assume that the people who say this are part of an elite group that are able to travel back in time, by the exact length of the movie, after they’ve watched and enjoyed a movie. And that proves that time travel is possible after all.

There’s still a missing piece, however. Why does this happen only to a few, and the rest of us have to forfeit this wonderful “ability”? Or is it a gift, from the movie, just to say, “Thanks for enjoying me; here is your time back, to spend however you want”? Whatever the case might be, I’d like to become part of this group. I could watch endless amounts of movies without wasting any time. I just have to pretend to have enjoyed every movie I watch.

If you are one of the people mentioned above, would you consider sharing the secret with the rest of us? Please! ;)
