There’s a general rule I have, that has few exceptions. For sci fi, if they touch time travel I get vaguely annoyed. It just becomes a lazy dues ex machina- like St:Voy’s year of hell arc. You know how they’re gonna fix it, you know it’s gonna just be waved away, and you know the entire plot arc is just not gonna matter.

Non Euclidean space isn’t nearly that bad, usually.

(Dr. Who is an obvious exception.)
