The Butterfly Effect
So I just watched the movie that is named The Butterfly Effect.I wanted to share this with LiS community because there are some similarities with the actual game.What's interesting about the movie is that the protagonist can go back in time just by reading his journal or watching recordings(just like Max did when she looked at that photo).Movie is really interesting and I think it's worth watching.It got me thinking about what might happen at the end of Life is Strange.Movie is as good as the game so go ahead and watch it if you want to.

Great movie, I just hope LiS doesn't end the same way.

Life is Strange is mix: Butterfly Effect, Riley Rewind, Twin Peaks (maybe also "Back to the Future", "Final Destination" and few others movies but i'm not sure.... this can show next episode).

Butterfly Effect - photo time travel, chaos theory
Riley Rewind - 5 episodes, rewinding, story with teenagers
Twin Peaks - town, locations, 'incident' with a girl

This game is not very original. But it's good.

It has a lot of similarities: the junkyard where they hang out, the protagonist abandoning her childhood best friend... I lile both the game and the movie, but it's obvious the devs are especially big fans of that one.

Even the way the photos vibrate (like the notebooks in the movie) reminded me a lot of this connection the first time I played. It's cool, though. Creative ideas should be taken and evolved.

Edit: the way the protagonist comes back after a change and he finds himself popular with the cool kids...

Edit: the diner, the wheelchair timeline.... The father issues of the childhood friend...

Edit: the friend dying and the protagonist travelling in time to save her... Time jumps causing brain damage/bleeding... I could go on :)

Edit: the way rewrites are presented in the movie and as changing photos in the game, with that *swoosh*. I'm watching the movie and finding a lot of similarities to be a coincidence.

Edit: the way the dude eats in the diner, protecting his food with his arm as if he had been in jail...

The scene where the protagonist convinces Chloe/Rayleigh in the diner booth...

And finally, the only way to make things right is to lose her forever and give up your powers.

It's obviously just a rip-off of Ray Bradbury's "A Sound of Thunder" but with fewer dinosaurs and Future-Nazis (much to its detriment)
