Suggestion: IMDb Poll Board's Time Travel Destinations

"Any place and time in history." Meaning the past, not the future.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056937/mediaviewer/rm1249918720/?ref_=ttmi_mi_269 ok then, I'd like to go to 4500 before Christ to see the pyramids being built. That is 2500 years before Cleopatra...

That's a great one, added! Since they were built over so many years I just wrote "Ancient Egypt, to see the great pyramids being built".

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064555/mediaviewer/rm2764355585/ Krakatoa explosion in 1883

Both added, thanks!

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0078243/mediaviewer/rm292583936/?ref_=ttmi_mi_54 A Shaolin Monastery during the Qing Dinasty. (1644 to 1911)

Added.

Why is that comment marked private? Your bot is broken, too.

Thanks! Added Vienna, December 22, 1808.

Thank you for adding. That would really be my favorite. I just made one mistake: and der wien = an der Wien Wien should be capitalized. Sorry for that. ;)

And sorry for havin an image, which only shows Beethoven conducting his ninth symphony, but I got no image for the fifth, just in case if people ask questions. ;)

That is actually a really nice and simple answer. I second it.

My second pick would be the time When the young Marc Chagall painted "Over Witebsk" (1915), "I and the Village" (1911), and many other pictures. I would like to see him painting his milestones and afterwards talk to him. I would like to understand his intentions from him self. So beam me to 1910 in Paris. ;) https://www.imdb.com/de/name/nm1744391/mediaviewer/rm1923464960

Maybe a third pick for all? I love the idea! Great! :D

Paris 1910 added, thanks! "I love the idea! Great! :D" Thank you. :)

Thanks, I'll add the 1960s. Is there any particular place (city or country) you'd like to visit in the 60s? Otherwise I suppose I could just let the voters decide for themselves.

In 1960s, I eagor to visit US specially San Fransisco

Nice, added.

You're welcome...

Amir, I can add the 1980s for you as well. Any particular place?

Sure, especially when it comes to walking on the streets at night with this atmosphere: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099785/mediaviewer/rm1953595393/?ref_=ttmi_mi_61

I think it's best if the image is from a 1980s movie or TV show.

How about this: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093010/mediaviewer/rm583149056/?ref_=tt_ph_3

Sure, added.

LOL @amirhossein Of all the films!! 😂

Amir, I'm born earlier and can tell you, the eighties were a very free time. The music market grew and many pop songs which still evergreens were made. It was a time when there were practically no cell phones. If you had to call someone, you had to guess when he's at home or telling your message to his answering machine, such like in the movie Terminator. Everywhere on the streets were phone boxes, where one could put his hard cash into to phone someone. Often homeless people p.i.s.s.e.d. in that boxes, others smoked while phoning. They always stank like latrines. Music was cool. The people had more bonding. There was more magic between the people. But it also was very loud. Everyday's life was slower and people behaved better than today, all-in-all. On the one hand it was very free, but people were more attached to their everyday plan and had to be more reliable. On the other hand, there was more mutual forgiveness. Today it seems all a little loose to me on the one hand and on the other hand there are more compelling living conditions. With the internet revolution in the mid nineties the world began to shrink. The world was very big, when one couldn't make two clicks for getting all things explained. To buy tickets for cinema we had to buy it at the cinemas, today you can order it online. Even though it's lesser effort today, its more expensive. When I went to cinema when I was a kid or later a young adult, there were only celluloid presentations and they had to change between 2 projectors several times, because one roll was only 30 minutes. You can see that in the movie 'Fight Club'. That was standart (without the nasty things.) Once we had a presentation in a local theater. It was Stargate and the scene when the bad guy pushed the button to strike back. Instantly the screen turned to white, because the guy who should change the rolles accidentaly dropped the roll by bumping the table and crushed a 15.000 Deutsche Mark expensive film roll. The presentation was over. Well, the movies also had drop-outs and damages which were obvious after the 200th presentation. Today all of that is digital. Cinema was technically never such perfect like today. If you want to see what a movie looked like, watch 'Death Proof' from Tarantino. The movie is designed to show what a movie looked like, when 200 times watched. ;D (the beginning of the bar scene) I could tell a full week 24/7 about differences between then and now. Some things were better, others worse.

Added, thanks.

That's a great one.

I also like that one. ;)

Added, thanks Sara. I hope the image I picked is OK. :)

Nice, but I already picked 28 AD (to witness some of his miracles). Is that also the purpose of your visit or did you mean his crucifixion?

I now have the unholy impression of otter visiting the live playing role game. My bad. That's a real bad thought. Right there is easter ahead. But I must admit, it would be a big impact to see Jesus Christ in real. Maybe I could get a drop of his blood. ... But that's selfish, somehow. Bad boy! :(

What is the point lol. If you go back with modern-day knowledge about science and future events, you could probably start a cult around yourself and become a god-like figure. If I went to 30AD, I would bring a chemistry apparatus and gun. Within a week, all Jesus' followers will follow me instead. 🤣

riverotter, did you see my question?

Yeah, I'd also pick 30 AD, 610 AD etc. to see whether characters like Jesus and Muhammad actually existed, and if so, how much of their history as we know it is accurate. No suggestions from me, will just vote one of you guys'

Thanks, I added the Enlightenment Period.

There is a great film about Immanuel Kant called The Last Days of Immanuel Kant. There is even a scene in which he sings. It is hilarious. I will add a picture to the photo gallery and post the link here when it is approved. Edit: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109601/mediaviewer/rm1638892034 Immanuel Kant sleeping with a picture of Jean-Jacques Rousseau on his bedside 🤣.

Added.

Latest: "Paleontologists, biologists baffled after 65,000,000 year old female Nordic human fossil found, apparently eaten by T-Rex."

Sounds like DS.

Nice, both added.

Added, thanks!

Thanks, both added. I wasn't sure on the exact years, but it seems to be sometime between 1704-1740 for Bach and 1905-1915 for Einstein.

@Jessica, Those dates seem right.

Agree @ Einstein. All the good ones are taken. I'm late to this party.

Added! "Tough to limit myself to only 2" I know, right? :) Since Breumaster also requested it, I'll allow three picks per user.

Cool! ;)

I want to be back in 1885 to see how CarlBenz buildt the first practicable motorised vehicle, the "Benz Patent-Motorwagen Nummer 1" (he buildt a tricycle). I want to see him work on it, maybe help him a little without cost and I want to see how he drove to the Reichspatentamt and applyed it as patent under the number 37435 in 1886. The first Automobile was born. I want to see that live!

https://www.imdb.com/de/title/tt0031322/mediaviewer/rm1316910336/ (in lack of a better image) ;)

Or maybe better that one: https://www.imdb.com/de/title/tt0020264/mediaviewer/rm2589701121/

Circa 1200 AD to Witness the rise of Genghis Khan, the period of Mongol domination

Breu and Kirk, I've added your picks, thanks!

By the way, the Motorwagen by Benz was buildt in Mannheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, where he founded his new company in 1883. He built the first funtional 2-stroke-engine in 1879 in another company, he also founded.Then he left it and founded his new company, where his world changing patent arose.

Thank you, I've added all three. Welcome to the poll board! :)

Added, thanks!
