A couple of "mistakes" that I caught while watching, thought HN might find them interesting:
- There's a reference to Viagra (6:20) but it hadn't been invented yet.
- The "hacking time" sequence around 10:30 contains Java [1] which obviously came from the future.
There are a few others, perhaps intentional. I won't spoil them here :)

- andrey-p 11y agoI... thought you were joking before I watched the film.
- hyperbovine 11y agoAnachronisms are a no-op when the whole film is build around time travel.
- yellowapple 11y agoI'm pretty sure these things are easily valid in a universe where Vikings rode dinosaurs and wielded machine guns.
- talmand 11y agoDon't forget the laser raptors. The presence of laser raptors provides context for anything.

- mrebus 11y agoThe "hacking time" sequence around 10:30 contains Java [1] which obviously came from the future. He did an iama yesterday and someone pointed this out. Turns out he went to r/programming asking for someone to write him some code that would hack time. someone sent him Java... or Hackerman invented java so he could write once run any Time.
