He originally tried medication to deal with hyperventilation and self-hypnosis to deal with what he thought was agoraphobia.

Budget: $10m

Cast: bunch of young unknown actors

Running Time: 91 minutes (1 hour, 31 minutes)

 

Plot:

The movie takes place in the early 90s. The film's story focuses on Dru Jones, a young BMX racer who lives in a small town with his mother and sister. Dru is faced with a tough decision: the qualifying races for Helltrack are the same day as his SATs, which he must take in order to attend college. However, winning Helltrack means $100,000, a new Chevrolet Corvette, and fame. Dru chooses the latter option, ignoring his mother's wishes. The Helltrack race is endorsed by the city and a duplicitous Luke Brest, president of The Federation of American Bicyclists and owner of Cobra Bicycles. Brest keeps adjusting the rules in order to keep Dru out of the race and to ensure BMX star Bart Tate has an easy road to victory, thus providing a financial windfall for Cobra Bicycles, Bart's sponsor.

 

Racers from all around come to the small town for the Helltrack and Dru meets Christie Hoot, who becomes Dru's romantic interest. Christie and Dru meet at the local high school dance where, instead of dancing like the other couples, they perform freestyle bike stunts on the dance floor to the awe of many. After being blocked from the race due to a last minute rule change on participant sponsorship, Dru is ready to give up his dreams of winning Helltrack, until his younger sister Wendy gives him a shirt to wear at Helltrack reading "Dru is... TUBULAR!" Dru and his friends then come up with an idea for him to still enter the race. Using the $10,000 Dru won from qualifying, they start up "The Tubulars," a small T-shirt business. However; days before the race Brest changes the rules yet again claiming any company sponsoring a racer must be worth $50,000. When the towns people hear about this they rally around Dru and his friends and with their contributions along with a generous donation from a wealthy local, Mr. Timber, The Tubulars come up with enough money and Dru is finally able to enter Helltrack.

 

During Helltrack, Brest gets the Reynolds twins to try to take out Dru, to no avail. In the final lap, Bart, who leads the race, slows down so that he and Dru can face each other one-on-one in the final stretch. Dru ultimately wins Helltrack, and Bart is kicked off the Cobra team. In the final scene Dru offers Bart a spot among The Tubulars.

Plot Summary:

Based on the 1980s Sunbow cartoon.

 

Sometime in the future on the desert planet of New Texas, BraveStarr (Adam Beach) is the main lawman of the industrious mining town Fort Kerium. Thanks to training with a mysterious shaman, he can temporarily summon animal spirits within him to aid him in his duties - Eyes of the Hawk, giving him telescopic vision, Ears of the Wolf, giving him ultra-sensitive hearing, Strength of the Bear, making him super strong, and Speed of the Puma, allowing him to run incredibly fast. His deputy and closest ally is Thirty-Thirty (Kellan Lutz), a humanoid cyborg horse who was the last survivor of an attack on a settlement filled with others like him. Also aiding them is miss J.B. McBride (Ronda Rousey), the judge in Fort Kerium, who also wields an energy gavel for combat situations and who happens to be the subject of romantic interest from both BraveStarr and Thirty-Thirty.

 

A band of murderous outlaws reside deep within the desert in an evil fortress called the Hexagon. This dark cabal, led by the dinosaur-like creature Stampede (voice of Frank Welker), are the ones responsible for annihilating Thirty-Thirty's people and have now set their sights on Fort Kerium. Their field leader and main combatant is Tex Hex (Joel Kinnaman), who was a prospector in Fort Kerium who died when he crashed a hovercraft loaded with radioactive space rocks. Stampede used his dark magic to revive him as an undead monster loyal to his evil cause. He is supported in combat by a quartet of intelligent humanoid coyotes - Goldooth, the chubby, bumbling one, Howler, the sharpshooter, Barker, the agile hand-to-hand combatant, and Dingo Dan, who, inexplicably, appears to be Australian.

 

The movie is not an origin story but details BraveStarr's repeated skirmishes with Stampede's forces, leading up to a climactic invasion of Fort Kerium in which the evildoers attempt to destroy the town by caving in the mine tunnels below. Ultimately BraveStarr, Thirty-Thirty and McBride manage to defeat the evil monster's minions, arresting the coyotes and Tex Hex and saving the town. Stampede escapes with a magic spell and promises revenge. Both BraveStarr and Thirty-Thirty invite J.B. McBride to be their date to the town-wide celebration. McBride chooses to go with Thirty-Thirty.

 

The movie is mostly played tongue-in-cheek but has a few jarring moments of self-seriousness, in particular flashbacks to the extermination of Thirty-Thirty's settlement and the death and resurrection of Tex Hex.

Spoiler

 

Gwen was dead. The car accident she had been involved in was one of the worst that he had seen. The one thing he loved in life was gone. These three things revolved around the mind of Oliver as he was at Gwen’s funeral on that cold December afternoon. Oliver and Gwen had been dating for two years now, and the two had grown very close to each other. In fact, Oliver was starting to think about proposing to her at Christmas. All of these hopes for the future, however, had vanished in a split second. Oliver simply sat alone at the funeral. He had no desire to have a conversation with anyone else. His parents, Paul and Susan come in to town to console him, taking him out to dinner.

 

At the restaurant, Susan tells Oliver that Gwen was the first girl she had met. In fact, she’d been with three other boys before she met Paul. Paul becomes startled, claiming that she said it was just two. An awkward silence takes over the table, but as his parents make it worse, For the rest of the evening, the parents try to tell Oliver that he’ll find someone else, although he remains convinced that Gwen was truly the one. If the world decided that they couldn’t stay together, he might not find anyone else to be with. Susan rolls her eyes, telling him that this angst was always a part of him, and it’s been quite irritating. The night goes by, and Oliver goes back to his house, which is now only inhabited by one person.

 

That night, Oliver has a dream. He was in the car with Gwen the night that the accident occurred. She was driving, but he was in the passenger seat. Oliver soon sees the car that caused the accident coming up. He tells Gwen to stop the car. She hesitates at first, but complies when he asks again. This stop managed to save Gwen’s life. The accident would have never happened. Oliver is amazed at what he had just pulled off. The two were still shocked at what had just happened, and the car that would have hit Gwen actually swerved off the road. The alarm soon goes off, and Oliver wakes up. The alternate happening stays in Oliver’s mind through the entire day.

 

Oliver works as an intern for a software design firm, and he spends most of the work day daydreaming about how he and Gwen would still be alive together. He actually writes the things they might do together into computer code. Oliver soon realizes his mistake, and he decides he needs a breath of fresh air to take his mind off of the dream. He steps outside and sees an ad on Facebook. “BRIDGEVIEW MALL TIME TRAVEL SERVICES (BMTTS):  Discover Your Past, Plan For Your Future!” Oliver becomes shocked upon looking at this ad. Time Travel has been invented a while back, but only in a way to examine what the past was like from the traveler’s memories. People could only travel to times when they were alive. Also, people who tried to change the past were desynchronized with the true flow of time, creating a separate timeline. Still, it could be enough for Oliver to potentially change the past and live in an alternate reality where his girlfriend is still alive.

 

He travels to Bridgeview Mall, which has a small office within it. Inside of the office were only two people, Sarah and Mike.  They are two workers for BMTTS, who spend the days bickering over petty and humorous matters while they wait for more clients to arrive. As Oliver walks into the building, which appears to look like a waiting room for a dentist’s office. Sarah greets Oliver to the office, asking if he has ever traveled in time before in his life. Oliver says that this is going to be his first time, to which Mike replies that save the potentially irritating migraines and the chance of wetting yourself, it’s a lot of fun. Oliver then says that he needs to go back in time to save his girlfriend from dying in a car accident.

 

Sarah soon develops an odd facial expression, one with slight guilt, and she tells him that there is no way to restore the past and bring her back to life. The most that he can do is create a new timeline where the accident never happened. Oliver insists that he is aware of the risk, and that he will do whatever it takes just to see her face again. Mike tells Oliver that such a travel maneuver would be very costly, but Oliver has the money. His job was surprisingly well paying. He is soon led back to a special machine by a doctor, Edmund Brown. Edmund had been told by Sarah about his desired time travel, and he says that he is going back for a noble cause. Oliver is escorted to a large machine with a fancy chair, as Oliver freaks out about this being evil sci-fi movie technology. Edmund slaps him, asking if he wants to save his girlfriend or not. Oliver apologizes, and he sits down, setting the destination for November 30th, the day before the car accident. As he goes in, Edmund says that if he likes it and wants to return, he can only go here.

 

The time travel involves much shaking, and Oliver gets a migraine. He shuts his eyes tightly, trying to ignore the pain. He is soon calmed once he enters a bedroom: his. He recalls this memory form the day before Gwen had died. Gwen was in the kitchen, making coffee for herself. Oliver hugs Gwen, telling her how relieved he is that she’s alive. Gwen is very confused, and Oliver comes to his senses that Gwen doesn’t know that she would die the next day. Gwen discusses taking a car ride to go see the new Propaganda exhibit at the local art museum. Oliver tells her not to go, but Gwen insists on it, and Oliver has a hard time trying to convince her otherwise. Oliver remembers declining coming with her, but he remembers this, so he decides to come with her, possibly finding a route that will spare Gwen.

 

The two drive down the road, the same drive that Gwen would have died in. This scene is mimicking the dream that Oliver had a few nights ago. Oliver also sees the reckless driver, and he pulls the car over to the side as the reckless car gets closer. Gwen is very confused, but Oliver says that he knows what he is doing. The reckless car soon veers off-road in front of them, causing a great accident as it hits a tree. Meanwhile, Sarah, Mike, and Edmund witness odd noises coming from the machine, indicating that he had greatly changed the past. Back in the new timeline, Gwen is so amazed that Oliver had known about the reckless car, and that they both could have died. Gwen and Oliver spend time at the art exhibit together, as Oliver is very happy with himself. However, his travel period soon ends, and Oliver is thrust back into reality.

 

Oliver wakes up in front of the three people, and he wants to tell them about the miracle that he had just experienced. He had saved a girl’s life, and he wants to go back in to meet her. Sarah smiles at him, but they actually have another appointment soon. He’ll have to come back at a later day to return to his past timeline, and Oliver schedules this appointment for the next day. Sarah says that she looks forward to seeing him again. The day passes, and Oliver can do very little but wait excitedly to see Gwen once more. When the time to see her again comes, Oliver wakes up in his bedroom with Olivia at his side. The two spend the day together, just like they always did. He even begins making sports and casino predictions to become even more rich and lavish in this world, beyond doing good deeds. For the first, time he feels like someone special. Sarah tries to speak with Oliver and ask for a general evaluation of their services, but he seems to really like it. They eventually go out for drinks, but he wants to leave and check on Gwen, much to Sarah's mild annoyance.

 

The days pass, and Oliver becomes obsessed with being with Gwen. He skips work to be with her, recklessly spending money on time travel expenses above all else, having  to get cheap food and sell some of his belongings, but none of that even matters because the fake timeline that he had created was worth so much more than the one that real life was keeping him caged inside.  In fact, he gets into a fight with his boss for missing so much work, that he ends up being fired. Oliver could honestly care less, as the girl of his dreams was far more important. However, Oliver and Gwen love the time that they spend together. While Oliver’s real life is beginning to fall apart, his love and life in the new timeline in flourishing. The two have gone to parties together, and they spend time together having fun in the winter landscape. Oliver soon becomes more convinced to propose to her, and he is confident that she will say yes. However, Oliver soon begins to lose sight of which timeline is real. This is evidenced when he begins to see posts about Gwen when looking at online tasks to get basic amounts of money, a la Taskrabbit.

 

A few days later, at the BMTTS building, Sarah, Mike, and Edmund stop Oliver before he travels once again. She says that she’s concerned with how much he’s been traveling, and that living in this fake reality is not worth throwing away his real life. Oliver says that he appreciates her concern, but that he’s come too far in his relationship to throw it away. He demands to see her again, becoming rather aggressive. Edmund reluctantly lets him proceed, but he warns him that too much time travel messes with ones brain, as it is insidiously proving to be true in the case of Oliver.

 

Oliver is at a party that he went to attend with Gwen, although he has lost track of where Gwen was. He tries to look around for Gwen at the party, but he soon finds something horrifying. Gwen is in a bathroom, passionately kissing another man. Oliver grabs Gwen and tells her that they’re leaving, proceeding to punch the man that Gwen was kissing. In the car, Gwen and Oliver get into a fight. Gwen tells her that he has been too attached to her lately, and that it’s not making her comfortable at all. Oliver retaliates by saying that he truly loves her, and he demands to know why these feelings aren’t being reciprocated. As their fight continues, they are struck by another car.

 

Oliver wakes up once again in the office. He gets into a moment of rage at the three workers, believing that they purposefully altered the timeline with Gwen cheating on him and the new car crash just to break him. He attacks Mike, but Edmund pulls him away. Oliver is in a state of agony and rage, demanding to know what happen. Sarah yells at him, telling him that he causes this in his own timeline, and that he warned him that throwing away his life for a fake one was never safe. Oliver leaves the building, feeling angry and upset. He searches for other nearby time travel services, and finds one an hour away. This could disrupt the universe and add multiple Olivers, knowing that it could jeopardize the stability of their business. "I never meant for it to be like this...I need to go after him." Sarah drives away. 

 

She manages to reach the time travel facility Oliver is at, but it's almost too late. He's about to go under, having lied about using another service despite being asked, but Sarah, in a moment of desperation, tries to stop them. It's too late, though. We see two Olivers collide and move closer to one another, as we see the editing move rapidly and uneasily as several more Olivers begin to slowly (but in an accelerating manner) enter the area. The machine begins to emit a loud noise as Oliver screams in pain as equipment in the room begins to shake. Sarah, rolling her eyes, says that this is why their center has better Foursquare reviews. Sarah tries to get him out, eventually managing to do so as the different universes, some ranging in levels of absudity, begin to collapse on one another. Sarah manages to pull her out, eventually falling backwards. 

 

Oliver wakes up in the hospital, where Paul and Susan wait for him. They are glad he is okay, and they were asked by a woman to drop a letter off in your room. It turns out to be from Sarah - she hopes he is doing okay, but makes him promise that not a word of this goes out. She also subtly admits to having feelings for him, leaving a secret P.S. note at the bottom of the letter that he is permanently banned from using BTTS. "You hopefully understand " A few months later, Oliver is working at a bookstore, building his life up again, eventually leading a recovery group for time travel addicts. He gets a text from Sarah, who asks if he would like to go out for the same restaurant that he and his parents went to at the start of the movie. He says yes.
