Tangents (1994) Nick creates a time machine out of an airplane and a Commodore-64, and shows it to his friends by taking them 50 years into the future. Nick sells the technology to Gen-Corp, a high-tech firm run by J.K. Robertson, whose office is in the mezzanine of a shopping mall. Robertson, however, turns out to be Evil, and uses the time machine to plunder the future. With the lives of himself and his friends at stake, Nick needs to use his time machine to travel a week back in time and convince himself not to give the demo to Robertson.

Movie Quote(s):
  • Marty: Whoa, minutemen! Nick: Correction, they are pissed minutemen!
  • J.K. Robertson: Matt, it's time for you to decide if you're one of my team players or not!
  • [after Matt has been fired] Nick: Well, at least you didn't get shot this time.
  • Nick: I never should have joined the physics club in high school.
  • Lisa: Bring your ray gun?
Movie Trivia:
  • The movie broke even when "Mystery Science Theater 3000" (1988) negotiated rights to show it.
  • Contrary to popular belief, the "woman at fountain" is played by Vicky A. Bourn not Lisa Kudrow. Bourn, whose character is billed as "worshipful one" in the credits, was dating the producer at the time.
  • J.K. Robertson's office is actually the foyer of a local opera house.
  • Shot in 1990, but released in 1994.
  • According to director David Giancola, Castleton State College provided several free t-shirts for the film, thinking they would be hot items after they were featured in a movie. That happened a few years later, when the film premiered on "Mystery Science Theater 3000" (1988).
