I used to have a book of sci-fi short stories. One of them ended with the main character turning on a time machine, and the last few lines were backwards. That stuck with me.

But will you finish it? What's what I want to know. Will you finish it?

The audience cheered the 20th Century Fox fanfare when I saw The Phantom Menace. That was all they cheered.
