  Interstellar?
context: Thats depends on the rules of said time traveling. Every movie has a set of rules for it, and more often than not its no simple as to "go back and just fix it". Sometimes you are just fucked. >
  
  This is kind of important, but also, there can only really be two sets of rules. It's either time travel or its multiverse travel. Time travel, you cant change shit or everything breaks. Multiverse, you can do whatever you want but it has no effect on the time you came from. 
  For example, killing hitler. 
  Time travel: You look back and see that hitler killed millions of people. You decide you are going to go back in time and kill hitler to stop him from killing all those people. So you travel back in time and kill hitler and so he never kills millions of people. This is where time travel breaks, because right then you have no reason to travel back in time and kill hitler. Because hitler didnt kill millions of people. You would most likely have never heard of hitler. So you dont travel back in time to kill hitler. But because you didnt travel back in time to kill hitler, hitler killed millions of people. You see the problem? 
  Multiverse. You cross over into another universe, reality whatever you want to call it and you kill Hitler. When you return to your time and space, you have saved that other universe from having millions of people killed, but your reality still has hitler killing millions. 
  You might get someone trying to be smart and pulling out that old time warp bubble(Im looking at you Star Trek) but really that just doesnt work. If your experience never happens, how you can you experience it inside your own reality? You cant. Its impossible. >
  
  I would like to introduce you to "12 monkeys". It's a very confusing show, sometimes they can't change things, but sometimes they do, and they rarely ever understand how they did it. >
  
  It doesn't sound like you have watched a lot of movies with time travel in because there is almost always some kind of limitation that means the characters can't just do anything or fix every mistake. >
  
  Hot tub Time Machine >
  
  I actually like time travel movies, because they create interesting paradoxes. Situations that don’t make any logical sense, but exist in the movie. It’s fun to have admittedly surface depth conversations about the nature of time and cause and effect with buddies afterwards. 
  Can it actually be lazy? Sure, just as any storytelling device can, and as much as I love Endgame I would argue that its use of time travel is plot armor. >
  
  Yeah time travel movies can be great because of the mindfuck. They usually get themselves in trouble somehow by doing it, and it's not the fix all which OP is saying. >
  
  Back to the future is an exception >
  
  Only because it's super fun. If you look at it properly, it's a mess like every other time travel movie. >
  
  Avengers is a bad example. The time heist had like zero tension. It felt like they were playing around. Like a cheap gimmick. Agents of Shield uses the same rules but does vastly superior in the last season. It was very suspenseful unlike endgame. >
  
  If anything, Avengers did exactly what OP said they hate about time travel. Half the population dies? Don't worry, we can just time travel and get everyone back >
  
  Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure >
  
  For me, time travel needs to be introduced in the beginning. If its not, then its annoying. I hate when time travel is introduced later on. >

  Dark >
  
  Dark was so fucking good, although the ending kinda ruined what I thought the entire show was about, but I didn't care because it was still so fucking good. >
  
  Excuse me? Back to the Future I, II, III? The greatest time travel movie ever made.
