I've recently developed an interest in time machines that have appeared in sci-fi shows or movies. Anybody know of a good website that chronicals the use of time machines in showbiz?

You could accuratly predict a solar eruption and then dial a gate that will take you through said solar event propelling you forward or back through time OR find the planet that Harry Maybourne is on and look for a puddle-jumper-with-time-machine.
Problem: Find a Stargate.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Yeah, but if it comes with that annoying brat, I'll pass.

Ah, but after your uncle Rico travels back millions of years and is eaten by a T-Rex and his time machine is swallowed up by a nearby tar-pit for thousands of years, untill my father discovers it in the year 2073 and travels back in time to 1972 to buy some expensive old comic books for cover price, where he meets my mom, I'm concieved and the time machine is left to me after my father is(ironically enough) run over by the tour bus for the classic rock band T-Rex.
When I turned 18, I discovered how to use the time machine and went forward to just before the auction for the Time Machine ended, contacted Ebay and told them the machine was stolen and the auction was pulled: the seller- "DanielsNX01" is banned.
So, your uncle never bought a time machine on Ebay and will not be eaten by a T-Rex. (you're welcome)
How I was concieved if my dad's from the future and has no time machine is a plot hole we'll gloss over in favor of big explosions and a romantic subplot....leaving room for a sequel, of course.

Great story, Jason!

It helps if you think of Cornfed (from Duckman) twelling the story in his long run-on-sentence way.
