For me this is the big one that I can’t yet wrap my head around. And I think we bump into a paradox here?Am I really missing something or is my brain turning into a mush? I recognize the cyclical nature of the story. And it’s cool. I’m just wondering if I’m really just a moron or what

It says in the film, that when you reverse time, you mustn't come in contact with your past self, or the results could be catastrophic. Yet this happens when JDW Washington fights himself wearing a swat outfit. So why weren't the results as bad as was warned when the Protagonist comes into contact with his past self?

It would be great if some very clever person could put the events of the film in some kind of chronological order,

I’d probably say it’s because the then present protagonist was unaware of who he was fighting at first? After he subdues the inverted self he wants to take his helmet off but Neil stops him.Leigh wrote: ↑August 27th, 2020, 11:41 amIt says in the film, that when you reverse time, you mustn't come in contact with your past self, or the results could be catastrophic.

Also he didn’t directly touch him as he was wearing a protective suit. They specifically mention particles (or was it molecules idk).

Nice to see Jeremy Theobald (Following) cameo in the scene with Caine.
Oh, yes! I was gonna say. I just noticed that it was him on my second viewing today. Blew my mind.
