Quote by Rian Johnson

Unlike some of the time-travel movies I love, like 'Primer' or '12 Monkeys,' 'Looper' is not about time travel. It's about this situation that time travel creates and the people dealing with that situation. So narratively, the big challenge was to have time travel get out of the way.

Summary

This quote highlights the unique approach taken by the movie 'Looper' when it comes to time travel. Unlike other films where time travel is the central focus, 'Looper' shifts the narrative towards the consequences and dilemmas created by time travel. The challenge for the filmmakers was to establish time travel as a backdrop and instead focus on the characters and their experiences in dealing with this extraordinary situation. By doing so, the story maintains a distinct perspective while exploring the complexities and moral implications that arise from the existence of time travel.
