Nine answers, including the five that are about things this museum has not built.

What is this?↓
A museum of reversed cinema. Short films that only make sense played the other way round, filed in six wings with a two-line note on what the reversal turns each one into.
Why are all the frames empty?↓
Because no clip has been embedded yet. When a work is hung it will be embedded from wherever its creator published it, credited and linked. Until then the frame stays hatched rather than filled with a stand-in image, because a stand-in would imply a film is playing.
Are the entries on the register films I can watch?↓
No. Every entry on the register is a proposal — a reversal the museum means to hang — not a film that exists. That is why no entry carries a running time, a view count or a rating: there is nothing yet to measure.
Are these scenes taken from films I would recognise?↓
No. The museum is for short clips reversed for effect — comedy, stunts, art, storytelling, nature, magic tricks — not scenes lifted out of feature films.
Can I vote on which reversal is better?↓
Not yet. The weekly duel is the museum’s one game, and it is not running: there is no vote writer behind it, so a vote button here would record nothing. There is no vote button anywhere on this site.
Does it cost anything?↓
No. There is no account, no paywall and no checkout on this site.
Can I upload my own clip?↓
No. The self-serve reverse engine is not built, and nothing on this site uploads a file anywhere. The splice bench will take an email address if you want to be told when that changes.
Something of mine is here and I want it taken down.↓
Write to the museum and it comes down. The rule here is embed-and-credit, never re-host, and a rights holder does not have to argue the point. Nothing is hung today, so there is nothing to take down yet.
