This films so much better than anyones giving it credit for on here, it's just awesome. The entire thing is just a mix of fun and wtf moments. Also they had good special effects in it as well. We don't get all our answers but I'll give it a shot.

So the students go after their teacher, who unfortunately didn't just tell them to wait outside the cave for him incase anything happened. The reason for this is pretty good, he's on land that's got no trespassing signs up. So instead of risking everyone getting arrested he goes alone. We also know later he's really looking for his parents who went looking for the fountain of youth. Now as the movie goes on we realize the characters will never get back to their own time, it's just impossible. They also accept that whatever happens they want out of the cave itself as it's really become a timetrap! We never find out why the cave was there, who made it, was it natural? My guess is it's natural and just there, but there are some issues with this theory. It never gets weaker or anything during the time the earth changes, this makes me think it's somehow generated by tech somewhere in the planet, perhaps pre-human civilization. We're also introduced to someone from the future who just wants the water from the cave, he saves them partly before dying because a caveman pulls his mask off. They knock the caveman out and offer to put his mask back on but it never happens. I am going to say the reason he didn't put it on is he was already exposed to the atmosphere and that meant certain death. They also didn't put him in the water for some reason, god knows why. But even so they escape but it's the future, far beyond now or then. It's hyperdrive to Mars. So the cool part is we know humans of the future are using the water from the pool, or they've created their own because we have 2 pools that revive everyone. It's unclear whether they made this tech or it's only available on Earth, perhaps that's a reason for the spacestation still being there.

Over-all this was very well done, everything about it. I can hardly believe I haven't seen it till now. Thanks!
