re: Looper = Movie of the year

First, why would you send the guy back alive to be killed by the Looper. They had no problem killing people in the future(they killed Joe's wife) so why didn't they just kill them and then throw them in the time machine. Then the Loopers are just disposal men. No problem with any of the guys they sent back running away.

Second, why the heck would they send a guy to his own Looper. Send him to another Looper. They shouldn't have any problem killing them.

I'll tackle this...remember, they send you back to yourself hooded and everyone wears the same garments when they appear in front of a Looper. You only know it's you when you get your payment and it's in gold.

So, what I'm seeing is that Joe actually new his loop was going to be closed when they killed his wife and took him away. So that's why he obviously fought back and went to himself not hooded. (Side note, when they showed the actual punch by Willis on JGL the entire theater laughed). Also remember that The Rainmaker is why Joe needs to go back in time. He wants to end The Rainmaker before he gets a chance to begin his reign.
