This is stupid. Brad Pitt not existing does not mean 12 Monkeys does not get made. It means that if it does get made, Brad Pitt does not appear in it. Due to not existing. Sony is a brand, Caesar's Palace is a real place, as is Las Vegas, as the Coronation Egg a real object, etc, etc. Just because there are parallels to real life, it does not mean that it exactly mirrors real life. It's like assuming that just because certain products/corporations are referenced in two different franchises that they somehow exist in the same universe. If that were the case then all television shows and movies also occur in reality by that logic. They obviously don't. So obviously in these television/movie universes, sometimes things happen similarly. Although not exactly.
