• please can someone write what happens when Hartdegen goes further into futer, after the uber-morlock dies etc. - a wasteland-like environment is shown. Does anyone have an explanation for that?--TheFEARgod 15:38, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

In the original book, the main character travels to this period of time and witnesses the last days before Earths destruction. He describes it much the same way, as a desolate wasteland. I would surmise that the makers decided to include this bit in the film and alter it to suggest that without Alexanders intervention, the Morlocks will continue to spread across the world, wiping out the Eloi and consuming the Earths natural resources. --Crais459 11:59, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

I believe that the Uber-Morlock mentions that without those like him, the more primitive Morlocks would revolt and waste the entire food supply. This article is poorly written, with a lot of it being conjecture. It needs work. Levid37 17:57, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inconsistencies

I deleted the last one because it doesn't make any sense. The future that Alex saw was not definite. He did not attempt to stop it until after he saw it, so it could still be changed. He was able to use the machine to do so because whether or not he had seen the future, the time machine would still exist because of Emma's death. L2K 17:11, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Agreed, that entry was nonsensical Kingpin1055 19:13, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
