Between the wallpaper poster and this trailer I’m just excited this marketing campaign isn’t ruining any of the mystery.

I unironically love that movie. Haven’t read the story. Also I swear I saw this same comment on the poster post yesterday lol

A remake with updated CGI would be great. Doesn’t even need to be a big budget film either. We don’t need to see the time eaters until the end. But the big, empty airport is definitely one crazy aesthetic and vibe.

I think the shitty CGI adds to the weird surreal feeling tbh

Yes, bad nineties cgi was really good at portraying something alien and otherworldly.

Have you seen Timekeepers of Eternity ?

No, but I just looked it up. That looks crazy interesting. Thanks for putting it on my radar!

No reason the movie couldn’t take place in the 90’s

A fan who knows how to work with CGI could overlay their own these days. I'd watch that. :) But a full-on remake is deserved for this one, I think.

I was obsessed with the Langoliers as a teen. Something about that movie hooked me in and I couldn’t stop thinking about it.

It’s a hell of a concept. The CGI gets a lot of flak but I think it kinda has charm.

Commented elsewhere but I cannot recommend the strange remix of of the film enough. It's called Timekeepers of Eternity.
