What Movies Get Wrong About Time Travel

I prefer the theory of the parallel universes over the self-correction of the time.

Most movies go that way too, since otherwise, the plot would be fatalistic (eg: '12 monkeys'). So they aren't really wrong.

I'm too tired to explain it here, but I like the explanation of time travel in the book Cowl: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowl_(novel)

I personally really liked the story. It had some interesting ideas and the author seems (IMHO) quite good. I'd reccomend it.
