A 2012 Science Fiction Romantic Comedy directed by Colin Trevorrow and produced by the Duplass Brothers. The above quote originally appeared as a classified advertisement in a 1997 magazine, and became an internet sensation when YTMND was popular. However, the film borrows only the ad and goes in its own direction.Darius (Aubrey Plaza) is a recent college graduate who can't find paid work due to her cynical Deadpan Snarker attitude, but works as an unpaid intern for Seattle magazine. An advertisement has recently been placed in the magazine by an anonymous stranger looking for a partner with whom to time travel. Staff writer Jeff (Jake Johnson) proposes finding this stranger in order to write an article about it, though in fact he only wants to go because the address on the ad is in the same town as an old high school girlfriend.As a result, most of his work is done by Darius, who finds the guy who wrote the ad, Kenneth Calloway (Mark Duplass). She joins him as a partner in the supposed time-traveling adventure and concludes that he is not pulling a prank. So is he crazy, or can he really travel through time? | |

The Cameo | |
| Safety Not Guaranteed / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Kristen Bell as Belinda Also, Jeff Garlin as Darius' father, Mr. Britt. John Silveira is the first person to check his mail at the post office boxes. The original idea for this came from Real Life in 1997 when Silveira had to fill in the last classified ads in Backwoods Home Magazine, so he wrote a joke filler: the same classified ad that sets this film into motion. Someone read it and sent it in to Jay Leno's "Headlines" segment. This movie was made as a "What if this ad were true?" | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Jeff doesn't believe that Kenneth can travel through time, takes the assignment basically so he can stalk his old girlfriend, constantly teases Arnau, and has Darius and Arnau do all of his work for him. However, he turns out to be a comparatively nice guy, with his teasing of Arnau mostly about getting him to become more outgoing. | |

Left Hanging | |
| Safety Not Guaranteed / int_80b5924 | comment |
Left Hanging: The film ends with the time machine disappearing with Darius and Kenneth on board. If you were looking forward to seeing how their actions in the past affect the present, you'll be disappointed. Also the Jeff sideplot; if you were expecting for him to come around and realize he was being a little too forward. Arnau's plot is dropped abruptly, as there's no indication if he has changed in any way after Jeff's night of wild partying. | |

Gainax Ending: After appearing to be a quirky dramedy for the majority of the runtime, the film takes a sharp turn into straight sci-fi in the last few minutes when it's revealed that Kenneth actually built a time machine on his boat. It works, or at least does something weird. Kenneth and Darius disappear. Roll credits. | |

Jeff's old girlfriend is a hairstylist in town, but this is never connected. | |
