Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)

Confirmed 6/10: a Honus Wagner card transports Little Leaguer Joe from 1985 to 1909, ageing him to twenty, and he helps Wagner in the World Series against Ty Cobb. The displacement sustains the story, which is mostly baseball and romance in 1909.

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: 26.53 base × 48.8% weighting.

Partial inputs flag incomplete source metadata. Provisional weighting flags a time-travel assessment that remains uncertain; it receives no additional confidence penalty.
