This appears to be confusion with a different project called Anomaly: [1], [2] (note the date on the 2nd link, far too late to refer to this film). Yngvadottir (talk) 18:12, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Parallel existences/lives

In one of their reverts, Bromy2004 has stated that the sources say "parallel lives", not "parallel existences" - I regard that as paraphrasing. The sources do not say anything about satellite control. Is there any source that does, or any reason not to paraphrase "parallel lives"? Paraphrasing is better than quotation, to avoid copyvio; summary is even better, but the sources I have found don't have overly long summaries of the film's plot anyway.

Not sure if I'm doing this right: Having watched the movie based on the synopsis, it is crucially wrong. Spoilers: While I admit my description isn't any better, it is clearly not parallel existences. He (Ryan Reeve) does not live 2 existences. His body is taken over by technological mind control. When the solar flares interrupt the satellite communications, he gets ~10 minutes until the system resets, and thus the story exists. All other times his body is controlled by another, and he has no memory of it. Bromy 01:48, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
