At the end of the movie when they're escaping the morlocks, one of them catches on fire - he is obviously wearing a fire protection suit, since he is immensely fatter then the rest of the morlocks. See more...
If you look closely at the metal plate that is connected to the front of the machine it says, "Manufactured by H. George Wells". See more...

If Weena did NOT want to be saved when she was drowning in the river, then why was she screaming? The only possible reason anyone would be screaming in such a situation is if they did want to be rescued. [Screaming in a situation like that is human instinct. They may have the adopted mentality to not care, but they weren't born that way, they must have been taught it, because if people were born not caring, then that would not control the species.]
In the atomic blast (depicted in the 1966 stopover of the time machine) the cars, street, bridge and buildings are completely destroyed only feet away from where H. George Wells (Taylor) had been tossed to the ground; yet miraculously he is uninjured and escapes in the time machine. [One of the oddities of atomic explosions is that they randomly spare areas for no apparent or predictable reason. During the Manhattan Project fake towns were built to test the effects of the atomic bombs on them - sometimes there were entire houses untouched even when the neighborhood around them was ash. It's extremely fortunate but possible.]
Unlike the 2001 version of "The Time Machine," George does not have a protective bubble over him and his time machine so when the land around him is being destroyed by a volcano, shouldn't he have been killed in the process? He does make it to his machine and quickly flies into the future but without some sort of protection the lava that surrounds him also should have fallen on him and ended his journey through time. [While the time machine is in operation, he is outside of time and therefore not in sync with normal matter.]
From the time traveller's point of view, he is just sitting in a time machine while the world goes on around him at very high speeds. If this is how it works, why, when they go back into the study can they not see the original time traveller making is first trip forward? [The time traveller is moving to fast to be seen by human eyes. This is explained in the novel.]
