Is it possible?

No matter what you say on the 1970's Superman movie, changing the direction of spin on the planet will not affect the flow of time. Time does not depend on the direction the planet is rotating. If that were true then when we sent probes outside of our system they would be affected by not rotating the same as they did on Earth.
Granted, there may be some relativistic effects from changing the Earth's spin but these effects would be far too small for us to notice. And on top of all of that, how would you change the spin of the world? You would destroy the planet by trying.

Yes it is possible. Everytime I fly to the west side, the clock becomes less. For example if my clock is 12:00 noon here, it will be 10:00 am on west coast. You can also do an experiment yourself to prove this. Get a mouse. Put it in a cage and rotate the cage very rapidly in a clockwise direction for a full day. (Eath moves counter clockwise if you look down on the north pole.) If you now look at the mouse it will look a little smaller, which is a sign that it has become a little younger. This shows that the mouse has gone backwards in time. Please don't rotate the mouse too fast. It can die from centrifugal force.

LOL LOL LOL LOL on account that whilst did a spiritual kook grow to be a 'scientist'? For others who desire to get a sturdy chortle out of this video, replica and paste the link and do away with the comma on the top. Linda, the link works different than it has a comma on the top that could desire to no longer be there.

do n't try to dream while u r wake up.rotation of earth has nothing to do with reversal of time.it's earth's rotation that is calculated in terms of time not the time that is calculated in terms of earth's rotation.
different planets have different rotation & revolution times
& thus have different length of days comprising different no of hours(for eg:Mars has aday of 48 hours as compared to our's day of 24 hours) & consequently have different length of year.

No. For proof, consider that Venus, Mercury, and Pluto spin backward. They rotate retrograde, east to west instead of west to east. Then there’s Uranus, spinning on its side, with its pole going left to right instead of up and down. They're not going into the past.

While the above answers are scientifically correct, they do not account for politics and interstate commerce. Time would march ever on, but its progression through the time zones would reverse. So, when its lunch time in New york, it would only be breakfast in London.

Is this kid crazy, or just very dimmer then everyone here? OF COURSE WE WONT GO BACKWARDS IN TIME RETARD! It's simple logic! Is everyone on Yahoo answers a retard, because I think this Guy/Girl is the most retarded person on planet Earth?

Superman has a lot to answer for.
No time will not reverse.

no,rotation has no effect on time.
