No, you're good. The parts of the movie where he travels into the past actually are set in the early to mid 90s.

As much as I would want to pick this again the title doesn't have a food or animal. Unless you count humans as animals, which they technical are.

Sleeper

Anonymous Bosch · Post by **Anonymous Bosch** » Wed May 09, 2018 5:29 pm

The Dead Zone: Walken's character awakens from a coma five years later (time travel of a sort, at least from his perspective). He realises he can use his psychic power to change the future, and ultimately sacrifices himself to prevent the countdown to a nuclear holocaust.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Wed May 09, 2018 6:08 pm

Blast from the Past

A countdown to nuclear Armageddon results in Walken creating a bomb shelter. And it's like time travel when his son, and eventually he and his wife, emerge from the bunker to see the modern world.

This is how time travels in Pulp Fiction:

This watch. This watch was on your daddy’s wrist when he was shot down over Hanoi. He was captured, put in a Vietnamese prison camp. He knew if the gooks ever saw the watch it’d be confiscated, taken away. The way your dad looked at it, that watch was your birthright. He’d be damned if any slopes were gonna put their greasy yellow hands on his boy’s birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide something. His ass. Five long years, he wore this watch up his ass. Then he died of dysentery, he gave me the watch. I hid this uncomfortable hunk of metal up my ass two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you.

hentzau · Post by **hentzau** » Thu May 10, 2018 1:10 pm

OK, going to give this one the Pyperkub for Sleeper, because that one was my second choice.

The one I was hoping to see was the 1967 Casino Royale, where Woody Allen ingested a capsule that released 1000 tiny little pills that went off like a timer. So in the closing scene (Operation Grand Slam*) during the climactic battle he is wandering around with the hiccups going off like little nuclear explosions, a walking, verbal countdown to (spoilers) the end where the final one went off and blew everyone up. Yes, everyone dies at the end of the movie. Which they should have.

I'm not the judge, but I would interpret a slogan as being a tagline or something for movie advertising. Like the slogan for the original Superman movie was "You will believe a man can fly."

And, that being said, I'm going to go with Superman: The Movie

"You will believe a man can fly", and there was both a countdown (with the impact of the nuclear missiles) and time travel (when Superman turned back time to save Lois.

Man, this is going to be a tough one to judge - love all the entries so far.

I will go with the tagline def above for noteworthy slogan, FWIW, however, I will be open to persuasion.
