That fridge (time machine) takes him 3 minutes backwards. So he ends up appearing in the same spot where he was 3 minutes earlier. He then puts the input to 3 minutes forward as we see in the glitchy screen and enters the fridge; he goes 3 minutes forward into the future counting from the time he enters the fridge. Here, 3 minutes later he'll be waiting in the fridge to happen something; but it suggests that he'll be waiting again and again for the infinite time without knowing it. Thus trapped himself in the time machine for the infinity. (My guess. Sorry for I couldn't convey very clearly what I am thinking right now.

Why never a real ending.
Could have done a pan out from the typewritter with a finished book by it Or a future location of a book signing with him sitting to sign autographs Or a news anchor introducing mysterious author who wrote thousands of books. or breaking the loop by writing don't in front of the get in sign and closing the door to see it disappear.
Too many of these don't have anything but an abrupt empty ending.

this date (aug 25 1985) was close to, but not the exact date that back to the future was released - Jul 03 1985. this was also the original suggested method of time travel in that movie, before the delorean. the refrigerator was discounted as being to dangerous for kids to copy and steven spielberg vetoed it. it did pop up again as an escape vehicle in the most recent indiana jones film, however.

Initially, when back < 3 minutes, he went back to a time that which is lesser than 3 minutes of the current time but when he finally changed back to forward > 3 (or x minutes, the possibility of him going forward was from 4 minutes to infinity.
He either might have stuck in an infinity loop or went to a time where the world has already ended.

You guys need to read william coopers book, BEHOLD A PALE HORSE, its the true story of TIME TRAVEL BY THE US MILITARY, and what they did with it, and still are. AFTER you read the book that they killed him for writing, THEN look at HISTORIC PARK in north eastern australia, they've been going into the past. THEY'VE been collecting VELORAFTERS.

Whatever time he chose--let's assume 3 years--he would end up in the box AGAIN about to go
that far into the future! So the moment he was 3 years in the future, the box took him
another 3 years, then another 3 and another 3 endlessly! (We won't see him again; there
will be no Part 2) -- That's what I think, anyway!

Minor Discrepancy noted: On his wall was the Terminator 2 Judgment Day movie poster. The movie came out in 1991. However, the date stamp (correct me if i'm wrong) is August 25th 1985 (I was born the next day btw. The first Terminator movie came out in 1984 and would make sense for THAT movie poster to be on his wall if it was 1985.

The concept of time travel just has too many flaws, for instance how could a time machine keep track of it's relative position on Earth in the ever moving and expanding universe Three minutes could send you into deep space. Not to mention all the different paradoxes such as the grandfather paradox and the bootstrap paradox shown here.

um. why did you guys shrink the time machine down making it to scale would still look like a refrigerator, just 30% 40% larger. it would have avoided the internal space to pilot size problem. the real one had enough space for an average sized man and a 5 year old kid to sit in it. well, at least the controls were relatively close.

The fridge just stays there and opens its doors after 3 minutes. Less effort, same results. The waiting what will happen next shot at the end implies it. Otherwise, they could have shown 3 minutes of dead scenery or made him appear instantaneously the next scene, with a (digital) clock on the wall during the whole short.

ya know, i don't know WHY video makers think it's cool to have an open-ended non-ending.
it is NOT cool. it is NOT a 'clever plot twist'. just tell a story and stop with this nonsense.
where did he go future or past i dunno - let's give them $500millilon to make a feature
. will never happen. sorry.

3: 30 - My criminal mind is already thinking about brining your valuables with you - over and over again. Each time you duplicate them, as the guy comes back with clothes and clock. Aftwr few repetitions you can get immensly rich.
End - Ok, now he has about 1000 other ways to get immensly rich.

If he moves ahead 3 minutes (roughly the time it takes him between going back 3 minutes and getting into the fridge) won't he be stuck in a never-ending time loop from which he now cannot get out of to reset his time travel

It said not very long ago but the radio and the typewriter looked to be contemporary to 1985 which was also the flashing number on the refrigerator. Am I on to something or overthinking

Insanity = doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. This is what he proves on his first boatload of times with the fridge.

This is the same in another movie: paradox, one guy found a time machine and reprise again with himself in another time, he is a killer. Interesting

i think he did not go in the future but was stuck in nothing as he did not know wat his future self will be doing if the time machine had not been there

The time on the door at the end was still 1985. Maybe the date should have been changed to somthing far in the future or past.
