The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
they said they need our help in 3000 years, but didn't elaborate at all on how or why, they just left that hanging out there, and it really didn't have anything to do with the story
But other than that I really liked the movie

you give the spoiled brats of humanity America Russia and China access to time travel what does that mean for causality? It would be never ending ripples and disasters.
I don't think that's right. They don't communicate telepathically. If you understand their language, you can perceive time the way they do, non-linearly. As she learned more about them, she got more and more snippets of her future. It wasn't until the end when she fully understood their langugage that she understood that what she was seeing was her future. She began to experience time non-linearly.
My impression is that the aliens needed to come now, despite not needing help until 3000 years from now, is because now is when Amy Adams is alive. And she's the only one smart enough to figure out this language and begin the process of teaching it to humans. I guess the aliens will need human help, but we can only help them if we understand them or understand time in the way they do.

I won't get to see it in the theater because: - It doesn't come out Argentina, where I live, until February for some goddamn reason - I will be in the US and Colombia from late December until early March, where it will already have ended its theatrical run by the time I get there.
Guys, I am not a moderator! I swear to God! Why does everyone think I'm a moderator?

I'll be interested to hear your take on it. Pretty sure it isn't one that LV would like but who knows.
One thing I really enjoyed was how the beginning captured the overwhelming and urgent mood that would inevitably exist if this scenario happened.
