Trivia: When the trailer for The Time Machine was first shown, Alexander is looking at a futuristic city. When the movie was officially played in theaters, the scene was changed to a red sky with Morlock lairs everywhere. Originally, the futuristic city was to show that the Morlocks had been defeated and that the Eloi evolved. It was changed because Simon Wells felt that if the Eloi won and evolved, Alex would have no reason to go back and start a new life with Mara.
