Before you choose

What kind of time-travel story is this?

Time travel drives much of the story.

Meets the archive’s time-travel criteria. The mechanism is classified as Causal Loop.

Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)

Characters age for 35 years in recurring spaces; survivors assume new identities and create the next incidents, closing a larger temporal cycle.

Characters inhabit repeating spatial-temporal traps and a recurring 35-year incident cycle; the film is described as a literal time-loop construction, not simply repeated editing.

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: 53.15 base × 71.2% weighting.

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