Okay, i cant remember who is in it and I thought it was the Manhattan Project but its not. Some scientist send a ship and its crew back in time around WW1 or WW2 and Some sort of explosion i think is the cause or its some radiation, Bermuda Triangle supernatural occurrence thing. I believe its a NAVY ship that gets sent forward in time as well. Very vague right? I'm really confused but i can see it in my head.HELP masters of the 80s

Haven't seen that one for a while. It must be a unique thing for us rewinders to have active threads on two Michael Pare movies at the same time!

Yeah, Michael Pare rocks! I have seven 80s Pare flicks and he´s one of the true icons for me.

Didn't The Philadelphia Experiment send two crew members forward in time and not the entire ship? But in Final Countdown a freakish storm sent the entire ship back to the attack on Pearl Harbor.. but they still couldn't stop it?
Just a thought, but maybe you are thinking of both movies because there were similarities.

The navy ship in PE gets stuck in the time-tunnel along with a ton of other things. The crew members are sent forward but not stuck in the tunnel.

I have both and IMHO and while I love them both, I think The Philadelphia Experiment is heavy on the cheese and therfore for me, a little more "fun" to watch, but I think The Final Countdown is superior. A much better story, acting, pace..everything...AND Martin Sheen! But you're right, both great movies!

Ah... but 'The Philadelphia Experiment' was based on an actual experiment! That trumps everything to me!
