I’ve not seen either of those but I always imagined if time travel to the past was real, it would be circular, as in, in 2027 I travel to 1950, but right now in 2026 I haven’t travelled yet, but if I were to look, I would have already been in 1950 in the worlds past but my future. Eg Harry Potter, Timeline, etc
