Before you choose
What kind of time-travel story is this?
Time travel is an important premise, with limited sustained exploration.
Meets the archive’s time-travel criteria. The mechanism is classified as Consciousness transfer.
Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)
Confirmed 5/10, down from 7: Zelda is drawn into stealing the time machine Dave's grandfather claimed to have built, and only late does it emerge that a kind of time travel has occurred, as minds projected into bodies. The heist and romance carry the film, with travel a late reveal.
The ending confirms projection of minds into bodies in the past rather than physical transport.

How Titan works
Titan combines the archive’s quality, audience and legacy base with the significance of time travel. It is an index, not a score out of 100, and is distinct from the FMV archive’s scoring model.
Titan = base × [0.20 + 0.80 × (time-travel score ÷ 10)²]
This film: 22.66 base × 40.0% weighting.
Partial inputs flag incomplete source metadata. Provisional weighting flags a time-travel assessment that remains uncertain; it receives no additional confidence penalty.
