Comments on: The Lake House https://www.krunk4ever.com/blog/2006/10/01/the-lake-house/ After eliminating all other possibilities, the one remaining-no matter how unlikely-must be the truth.

However, Buttefly Effects had an interesting way to deal with this. He altered the past, but his future was altered also and his new future had nothing that conflicts with the past.

I’m actually okay as long as there’s nothing that will conflict the future with the past.

For example, in Terminator, if changing the past either meant no future robots or no future John Conner, then the sending of the robots back or trying to stop Skynet would not make sense.

In the Butterfly Effect, it used it’s blackouts as a “save point”, something you can return to and continue the game, but the new future created doesn’t conflict with the past.

However, in Lake House, there is no timeline that would make sense.

So if the future changes, no one could be sent back in time from the original future to alter the past in the first place… Right??? >_
