Looper, questions and spoilers

Great movie.

1. I think it is to get rid of someone who knows about the murder or the future in general. The dont kill them in the past because it would probably be hard to get more loopers if they knew theyd be dead in 5 years instead of 30. Also youd have a bunch of looper killers roaming around in the past.

2. I think the original future had Old Joe killing the mother to get to the kid which resulted in the Evil Rainmaker. Young Joe changed that future so now its unknown. The kid is a genius so if he was able to see what happened from the cornfield hell probably figure it out eventually and maybe use Joes sacrifice as a positive model.

4. I think the fact that memories transfer and dying makes the future you disappear means that there is only one universe. If there were two then the actions of the past you wouldnt have any effect on the future you because you would essentially be two different people.

5. I dont think the Boss has any specific knowledge of the individual loopers future lives. When he left the future there were no loopers. I think China just took over the world, the cash they were using in Kansas was Chinese so Im guessing China was just the best place to be.

6. Maybe it was a problem and the guys that killed her got arrested. Everybody in the future has a tracking chip that activates when theyre dying or dead (maybe, I made that up)

8. See 5

9. If it was then Jeff Bridges would have gotten scars when the young guy was hurt and he'd be walking with a limp since he shot himself in the foot.

10. Time travel is only one way, you would have to go back then wait 30 years to see what happens and by then youd be old.

I liked it, it was like X-Men crossed with Terminator. Id really like to see a movie that shows what the Evil Rainmaker was up to in the future and when the new Rainmaker is going to do in the future.
