I watched this movie with my friend, which v didn't expect it to b so meaningful, coz b4 the movie, v r actually chat a lots abt life...so, if u can 'click' your life, such as to rewind, fast forward, pause etc every seconds of your life, will u b happier? what function do u like most? rewind? fast forward? paused?

My initial thought would be "yeah! that would be great"... but come to think of it, it may give me happiness on that certain part but it could change the course of my history. That is something I don't want to happen. It's better to leave things the way they are. One changed event might mean losing a future loved one or turning a future event into a catastrophe. The possibilities are endless. I might as well have the pains and heartaches now and have the happy ever after in the end.

yes, i hav the same thought from the begining of the movie, seems like everything under 'control', but the consequences 'cost' too much ^_^

I'd probably end up using the rewind sometimes... but I don't know if I'd be happier. In the end, things tend to work out OK. There are moments in relationships where right after a break up I'd wish I could go back and change things, but then months down the road, you move on and things are better, and I'd be glad I didn't do things differently. Things look better the more removed from them you are, but really close to big life events, people get scared and would change them without realizing that everything is going to be just fine or better in the future.

yes, i agree with u ^_^ sometimes some flaws will make u stronger and wiser than b4 ^_^ v all hav 2 move on, i definitely won't choose fast forward, coz i wanna enjoy every moment of my life...all the process, even though is bitter or sweet, is a must & it's very meaningful ^_^

I don't think I would use any of them. Except maybe pause so I could take a breather. I would be too afraid to hit rewind. What if you go back and change something and it completely alters your future? Things aren't always great but I wouldn't want to risk losing my family. I wouldn't want to fast forward either, my kids are growing up too fast for me at normal speed!

There are a lot of situations I would like to rewind back to and 'fix'. But would I be happier? Who knows?

Im not sure but i would definitely rewind some things, I dont know about fast forwarding them though. I would mostly use rewind or pause. If we had this then lots of banks would be empty :P
