When is marty mcfly day
The kids make fun of them for constantly rehashing the story of how they met, for example. George is still working with the guy who bullied him in high school. George watches re-runs. When Marty goes back to in movie 1 , his parents are very much in the present. His stories are just something he does to amuse himself, he sees no future for them. Even biff is obsessed with little more than maintaining his car. Yet, in trying to get his parents together, he makes them think about the future.
George goes after Lorraine, and begins to see a future and purpose as a writer. He is open to hoping for the future. The of BTTF is a place without hope for the future. Like you guys mentioned, all they can think of doing with the clock tower is tear it down or keep it as is. People wanted to believe in the future again. He dwells on being a young musician instead of moving forward with his current career.
He insists on living in his old neighborhood right? Fenzel talked about how the whole trilogy is concerned with predetermination and cyclical behaviors of family and personality. If you are stuck with the idea that the past, or even the present, will determine the future, then it will.
All that to say, do the movies think that is better than ? After Doc had made several guesses regarding where Marty came from and why he was here, Marty finally explained who he really was and that he needed Doc's help to return to However, Doc, after expressing frustration at his invention seemingly not working, did not believe Marty's claims of being a time traveler.
Marty tried to convince him by showing that the expiry date of his driver's license was and that, according to his birthday, he hadn't even been born yet. Marty then showed him a photograph of him and his siblings , pointing out that his sister's sweatshirt read "class of ' Marty answered that it was going to be Ronald Reagan , but Doc scoffed at the idea that an actor was going to be President.
Marty then pursued Doc as the latter ran towards his garage, mockingly suggesting that various celebrities would similarly be in government positions by Fortunately, Marty finally managed to convince Doc by telling him the story of how he got the bruise on his head earlier that day and had a vision of the Flux Capacitor. The two then went out to recover the DeLorean.
After Doc showed Marty the picture he drew of the flux capacitor after he hit his head, Marty opened the car door and turned on the flux capacitor, which resulted in Doc being overjoyed at the knowledge that he had finally invented something that worked. The two then snuck the car back into Doc's laboratory and started formulating a plan to get Marty back home. Marty hooks the JVC camcorder to Doc's second television set in the garage, enabling them to watch the tape of the events at Twin Pines Mall.
Upon returning to Doc's lab, Marty hooked up his camcorder to Doc's television and they watched the tape of the events at Twin Pines Mall. Shortly after, Doc was horrified when the recording of his future self explained that the flux capacitor required 1.
Marty followed Doc, who was sitting in his chair and lamenting his carelessness in making the flux capacitor require so much electricity. Marty remarked that all they needed was a little plutonium, but Doc stated that plutonium was hard to come by in and regretfully told Marty that he was stuck in this time period. Marty, however, refused to accept that, informing Doc about his girlfriend Jennifer and showing him the back of his flyer on which she had written her message and her grandmother's phone number.
Doc replied that the only source of electricity capable of generating that much power would be a bolt of lightning , but lamented that nobody ever knew when or where lightning would strike. Marty then remembered that the flyer also featured the news story about a bolt of lightning that would strike the clock tower on Saturday night, November 12, , at PM.
Doc proclaiming that their plan would successfully send Marty back to the future. Doc believed that he could find a way to harness the bolt's power, channel it into the flux capacitor and ultimately send Marty back to An excited Marty then suggested that Doc could perhaps show him around town while he waited. However, Doc stopped him mid-sentence and insisted he stay inside his house during the week ahead.
He explained that Marty had to avoid contact with anyone else, as everything he did could have serious repercussions on future events. After Doc asked Marty if he had interacted with anyone else that day besides him, Marty admitted that he had run into his parents. Doc then rechecked the photograph of Marty and his siblings, and realized that the head of the firstborn son Dave was missing, having been erased from existence.
After Marty remarked that the school was cleaner and looked brand new compared to his time, Doc explained his theory that Marty's interference in his parents' first meeting had resulted in his existence being jeopardized, with Dave disappearing first, then Linda and finally Marty himself if they didn't think of a plan. Marty remarked that the situation was " Heavy ", confusing Doc, who remarked that weight had nothing to do with it.
They later saw George in the hallway, being bullied by his classmates and subsequently berated and called a slacker by Principal Strickland, who, Marty remarked, didn't seem to have ever had hair, aside from a small fringe which he no longer had by After being asked by Doc what Lorraine ever saw in George, Marty guessed that she felt sorry for him after her father hit George with his car.
Doc identified it as the Florence Nightingale effect , which happened in hospitals when nurses fell in love with their patients. After receiving brief encouragement from Doc, Marty went up to George and formally introduced himself.
Marty then tried to introduce George to Lorraine, but unfortunately Lorraine didn't pay any attention to George, instead showing interest in Marty and asking him whether his head still hurt.
Marty said that it didn't and Lorraine told him she had been worried ever since he ran off the other night. Lorraine then asked him if he was okay, but before Marty could answer, the school bell rang and Lorraine had to leave.
Marty and Doc standing in front of a poster for the Enchantment Under the Sea dance. Marty was then informed by Doc, who had been observing their conversation from a distance, that the situation was more serious than they previously thought. Doc explained that Lorraine was now infatuated with Marty instead of his father, much to Marty's discomfort. Doc stated that the only way for George and Lorraine to get together was if they were alone together and suggested that Marty had to get them to interact at some sort of social event, like a date.
Unfortunately, Marty had no idea how to arrange a date for them, as he didn't know what people in the '50s did. Doc remarked that Marty, being their son, had to know his parents on at least some level. After being asked by Doc what his parents' common interests were and what they liked to do together, Marty answered that, as far as he knew, they had nothing in common. Fortunately, Doc then saw a poster of the upcoming Enchantment Under the Sea dance, which Marty recalled was where George and Lorraine had their first kiss.
Marty was then instructed by Doc to stick to his father like glue and make sure he took Lorraine to the dance. Marty sat with George in the cafeteria and tried to talk with him about Lorraine, but then noticed that George was writing something and asked him what it was. George revealed that he was writing science fiction stories about visitors coming down to Earth from other planets, which surprised Marty, as he had no idea his father ever did anything creative.
Marty asked if he could read some of them, but George refused and said that he never let anybody read his stories. Curious, Marty asked him why not, and George revealed that he feared that his stories wouldn't be liked and being told that he wasn't any good at writing.
After George stated that such a thing would be pretty hard for somebody to understand, Marty, understanding how George felt, stated that it was not hard at all. Marty then switched the topic back to Lorraine, telling George that she really liked him and had told Marty to tell George that she wanted him to ask her to the Enchantment Under the Sea dance, much to George's surprise.
Marty told George that all he had to do was go up to her and ask her. But George was hesitant, worried that she might say no and unsure if he could take that kind of rejection. George then noted that he thought Lorraine would rather go with somebody else, pointing towards Biff, who was harassing her. Angered, Marty walked up to Biff and forcibly separated him from Lorraine, telling him to get his hands off of her.
Although slightly intimidated by Biff's height, Marty was still willing to fight against him. Fortunately, Strickland's presence prevented a fight from breaking out, with Biff saying that he was cutting Marty a break since he was new and telling him to get out of there.
Marty then realized that George had left during the commotion. George telling Marty that neither he, nor anyone else on the planet, could change his mind about not going to the dance. Marty pursued George as he was on his way home, which prompted an annoyed George to ask him why he was following him around.
Marty stated that if George did not ask Lorraine out to the dance, he would regret it for the rest of his life. But George insisted that he couldn't go to the dance, stating that he would miss his favorite television program, Science Fiction Theatre.
Marty insisted that Lorraine wanted to go with him and asked George to give her a break. George, however, insisted that he was not ready to ask Lorraine out to the dance and that not Marty or anybody else on the planet could make him change his mind. Looking at his family picture, Marty saw that Dave had almost completely faded away.
Fortunately, the mention of Science Fiction Theatre did give Marty an idea. Marty devised a plan to scare George into taking Lorraine to the dance, donning his radiation suit, a hair dryer , and his Walkman with a tape of Eddie Van Halen. Marty visited George in the middle of the night, waking him up by putting headphones on him and playing the tape.
Marty claimed that he was " Darth Vader ", an extraterrestrial from the " planet Vulcan. Marty then used chloroform to put George to sleep, unfortunately, this caused George to oversleep for most of the next day.
That afternoon, Marty saw a shaken George run towards him in Courthouse Square , and remarked that he hadn't been at school. After George told him of his encounter and that he had overslept, Marty told George to keep the "Darth Vader" story to himself and told him that Lorraine was in Lou's Cafe. Approaching the cafe, Marty pointed out Lorraine and told George to just go in there and invite her. George was willing, but didn't know what to say.
Marty told him to just say anything, whatever's natural, the first thing that came to his mind. But George replied that nothing was coming to his mind, prompting Marty to reply that it was a wonder he was ever born, to George's confusion. Marty then told George to tell Lorraine that destiny had brought them together and that she was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.
Marty then noticed that George was writing down what he was saying, referring to it as "good stuff. Marty then sent George inside of the cafe and watched him as he was asking out Lorraine. Unfortunately, they were interrupted by Biff, who remarked that he had earlier told George never to come in there and demanded that George pay him for doing so.
As Biff was walking towards George, Marty tripped him. After Biff stood back up and started threatening him, Marty distracted him by pointing to something supposedly behind him.
As soon as Biff looked, Marty punched him in the face and knocked down his gang as he ran outside. Once outside, Marty ran to a couple of children on orange crate scooters , borrowing one and pulling off the crate to create a makeshift skateboard.
Marty was nearly caught by Biff and his gang, but managed to grab onto the back of a passing truck. However, Biff and his gang managed to catch up in Biff's car and tried to ram Marty into the truck, forcing him to move to the side. Unfortunately, Marty saw that a man was getting out of his car in Marty's path.
This forced Marty to take a right turn to the steps of the Courthouse and caused him to crash into a man and a woman who had exited the building. Although Marty quickly managed to get back on the skateboard, Biff and his gang caught up to him, which resulted in Marty holding onto the front bumper of Biff's car. Marty held onto the car as Biff drove it back onto the street and towards a manure truck, intending to ram Marty into it.
Fortunately, Marty managed to escape by running up on the car's hood, over the seats and jumping down onto the skateboard as it passed underneath the car. The resulting confusion resulted in Biff and his gang crashing into the manure truck. Afterwards, Marty gave the skateboard back to the children, thanking them for letting him borrow it. Marty returned to Doc's lab and found him rewatching the tape of the events at Twin Pines Mall. Doc quickly turned it off upon realizing that Marty was there, remarking that the camera was a fascinating device.
Marty then tried to tell Doc about what happened that night after they made that tape, but Doc insisted that Marty not tell him, stating that no man should know too much about their own destiny. Marty said that Doc didn't understand, but Doc insisted that he did. Doc stated that if he knew too much about his own future, he could endanger his own existence the same way that Marty had endangered his, to which Marty agreed. Marty then watched as Doc showed him his plan for sending him home using a demonstration model of Courthouse Square.
Doc apologized for the crudity of the model, noting that he didn't have time to build it to scale or paint it, although Marty assured him that the model was good. Doc explained that they would run some industrial strength electrical cable from the top of the clocktower down to suspending it over the street between two lamp posts.
Meanwhile, Doc had outfitted the vehicle with a big pole and hook which ran directly into the flux capacitor. At the calculated moment, Marty would start off from down the street driving toward the cable accelerating to 88 miles per hour. According to the flyer, at precisely PM that Saturday night, lightning would strike the clocktower, electrifying the cable just as the connecting hook made contact, thereby sending the necessary 1.
Marty was then given a toy car by Doc to help with the demonstration by winding and releasing it from down the street while Doc simulated the lightning by hooking up to a power source and pointing an alligator clip to the pole at top of the clocktower.
The result was an explosion at the model table, which set the toy car on fire. The toy car then drove off the table and towards a large cloth, setting it on fire. Marty watched as Doc gasped in panic and ran to put out the fire with an extinguisher , sarcastically remarking that Doc instilled him with a lot of confidence. Doc, however, told him not to worry, saying that he would take care of the lightning and Marty should take care of his father. Doc then asked Marty how things went that day and whether George had asked Lorraine out.
Marty said that he thought so and Doc asked him what she had said. However, at that moment, they heard someone knocking at the door. After Doc checked the door and stated that it was Lorraine, Marty helped him cover up the DeLorean with a tarpaulin. After Doc let Lorraine in, Marty asked her how she knew he was there.
Lorraine revealed that she had followed him and Marty quickly introduced Doc to her as his uncle. Lorraine then asked Marty if he would ask her to the dance. Confused, Marty asked if nobody had asked her, which she confirmed. Marty then asked her about George, and Lorraine admitted that, although she thought he was kinda cute, she believed a man should be strong in order to stand up for himself and protect the woman he loved.
She asked him if he agreed, and Marty awkwardly answered yes. Later on, Marty visited George at his house and made a plan to get him and Lorraine together. George complained that he still didn't understand how he was supposed to go to the dance with her if she was already going to the dance with Marty. Marty replied that Lorraine did want to go to the dance with George, but just didn't know it yet. He explained that they had to show her that George was a fighter, somebody who was going to stand up for himself and protect her.
George, however, pointed out that he had never picked a fight in his entire life. Marty corrected him by explaining that he was not going to be picking a fight, but instead would be coming to Lorraine's rescue. They then went over the plan again. Around PM, she was going to get very angry with Marty.
George questioned why she would be angry with him and Marty explained that nice girls get angry when guys take advantage of them. Surprised, George asked if Marty was planning to get physical with Lorraine, but Marty assured him that it would all be just an act and then continued explaining the plan. At PM, George would be strolling through the parking lot, see them struggling in the car, walk up to it, open the door and say his line.
Marty then reminded George of his line, which he then said. George questioned him on whether he ought to swear and Marty stated that he definitely should before continuing. George would come up, punch Marty in the stomach, laying him out for the count, and he and Lorraine would live happily ever after.
George remarked that Marty made it sound so easy, but said that he wished that he wasn't so scared. Marty encouraged him by saying that there was nothing to be afraid of and that all it took was a little self-confidence. Marty then repeated Doc's phrase, telling George that if he put his mind to it, he could accomplish anything. On the night of November 12 , , Marty and Doc were at Courthouse Square, making final preparations for Marty's date with Lorraine and his return trip to respectively.
Marty was changing clothes and borrowing Doc's car while Doc was setting up the cable and DeLorean. Doc questioned Marty on whether he was sure about the storm after hearing the radio predict a mostly clear night with some scattered clouds, which prompted Marty to ask since when the weatherman could predict the weather, let alone the future.
Marty was then told by Doc how he would be very sad to see him go, as Marty had really made a difference in his life and given him something to shoot for. Doc expressed happiness at knowing that he would be around to see , succeed at building a time machine and have a chance to travel through time.
He continued by saying that it was going to be really hard to wait 30 years to talk to Marty about everything that had happened within the past few days. He then told Marty that he was really going to miss him, Marty replied that he was really going to miss Doc as well before once more trying to tell him about the future. Unfortunately, Doc still refused to hear about it, stating that they had already agreed that having information about the future could be extremely dangerous.
He stated that even if Marty's intentions were good, they could backfire drastically. Doc then told him that whatever Marty had to tell him, he would find out through the natural course of time. Later, in Lou's Cafe, Marty wrote a letter to Doc on cafe stationery, warning him that, on the night Marty went back in time, he would be shot by terrorists. He instructed him to take whatever precautions necessary to prevent this terrible disaster.
He then sealed the letter in an envelope marked Do not open until Marty then placed the letter in Doc's coat pocket and left to go pick up Lorraine. Marty drove Lorraine to the school parking lot and nervously asked her whether she would mind if they parked for a while. To Marty's surprise, Lorraine said that it was a great idea and stated that she loved to park. Noticing Marty's confusion, Lorraine remarked that she was almost 18 and revealed to him that she had, in fact, parked before.
Lorrained then noted that Marty seemed nervous and asked if something was wrong, which he denied. Marty then saw Lorraine drink a bottle of alcohol and quickly took it from her, asking her what she was doing. Lorraine said that she had swiped it from her mother's liquor cabinet, prompting Marty to state that she shouldn't drink.
Lorraine asked him why not and Marty answered that she might regret it later in life. Lorraine told Marty to not be such a square and that everybody who was anybody drank, which prompted Marty to take a gulp from the bottle.
However, he then noticed her lighting a cigarette, which caused him to spit the alcohol back out and exclaim his surprise at her smoking as well, prompting Lorraine to remark that Marty was beginning to sound just like her mother. Lorraine then said that, when she had children, she would allow them to do anything they wanted, anything at all. This prompted Marty to remark that he would like to have that in writing. Marty then saw that Lorraine had taken off her coat, showing a low-cut dress, and quickly looked away.
When Lorraine finally asked him why he was so nervous, Marty asked her if she had ever been in a situation where she had to act a certain way but when she got there, she didn't know if she could go through with it.
Lorraine thought he meant how he was supposed to act on a first date, which Marty nervously said was sort of the case. She stated that she knew exactly what he meant and asked him if he knew what she did in those situations. Marty asked her what it was that she did, she replied that she didn't worry and kissed him, much to his panic. Fortunately, Lorraine quickly broke the kiss and backed away, saying that it was all wrong.
She said that she didn't know what it was, but when kissing Marty, she felt like she was kissing her brother. She remarked that it didn't make any sense, but Marty assured her that it made perfect sense. At that moment, Lorraine told him that someone was coming. The car door was opened and Marty was roughly pulled out of the car by a drunk and angry Biff, who accused him of causing dollars damage to his car and that he was going to take it out on him.
Marty was then restrained by Biff's gang while Biff started forcing himself on Lorraine in the car, ordering the gang to take Marty out back and that he would be there soon.
Marty was then punched in the stomach by Match and subsequently carried away and locked up in the trunk of a Cadillac. Fortunately, the car belonged to Reginald , the drummer of the Starlighters , who had been having a smoke break along with the rest of the band inside the car.
After the musicians chased Biff's gang off, Marty informed them that the keys were inside of the trunk, which forced their lead vocalist, Marvin Berry , to pry open the trunk with a screwdriver instead.
Although they eventually managed to open the trunk, Marvin badly cut his left hand in the process. Marty backstage with Marvin and the Starlighters, insisting that they had to play.
Finally free, Marty tossed the keys to Reginald and ran back to the car, arriving just in time to witness George knocking Biff out with one punch, finally standing up to a bully for the first time in his life. He then saw George help Lorraine off the ground and escort her inside of the school. Checking his family photograph, Marty discovered that his existence was still in danger, as Linda was disappearing as well, and quickly ran back to the band.
Upon finding them, Marty told them that they had to go back inside and finish the dance, but they told him that Marvin couldn't play the guitar due to his injured hand and they couldn't play without him.
However, Marty insisted that they had to play, otherwise he would be history. But Marvin stated that the dance was over, unless Marty knew someone else who could play the guitar. Marty joined the dance band onstage to ensure his future existence, playing Earth Angel and providing a romantic atmosphere for his parents so they could kiss.
All was almost lost, however, when Mark Dixon jumped in between George and Lorraine, with Marty forgetting how to play the guitar and starting to fade away much like his brother and sister in the photo. George, however, returned and pushed Dixon away, finally kissing Lorraine and restoring Marty and his siblings back into existence.
When George waved at him, Marty waved back, happy to see that his hand, which had been fading away moments earlier, had been fully restored. His existence assured, Marty finished the song. Although Marvin asked him to do another one, Marty said that he had to go. However, he was quickly persuaded to do another one and announced to the audience that the song was an oldie, at least where he came from. Marty then explained to the band that the song was a Blues Riff in B and that they had to watch him for the changes and try to keep up.
Marty then started playing Johnny B. While Marty was playing the song, Marvin phoned his cousin, Chuck Berry , who at the time was looking for a "new sound", Marvin held the phone out for Chuck to hear the performance. At that moment, Marty started doing Chuck's famous "duckwalk" and started imitating other famous guitarists from his time, tapping his guitar like Eddie Van Halen, kicking the amplifier like Pete Townshend and contorting himself on the ground like Angus Young, before finally finishing on one last high note.
Realizing the audience had stopped dancing and were now staring at him, Marty said that he guessed that they weren't ready for that kind of music yet, but remarked that their kids were going to love it.
While trying to leave backstage, Marty encountered Lorraine and George, with Lorraine remarking that that was very interesting music. She said that she hoped Marty didn't mind, but George had asked if he could take her home, which Marty said was great, remarking that he had a feeling about the two of them.
After Lorraine happily told him that she had a feeling too, Marty said that he had to go, but wanted to tell them that the experience had been educational. Lorraine asked him if they would ever see him again, and Marty guaranteed that they would. George then thanked Marty for all his good advice, telling him that he would never forget it. Marty wished them good luck and almost left, but then turned back around and asked them that, if they ever had children, and one of them accidentally set fire to the living room rug when he was eight years old, they would go easy on him.
After George promised him that they would, Marty finally left. As the storm began to move in, Marty rushed to get back downtown. Upon finally arriving, Marty was chastised by Doc for being late, who asked him if he had no concept of time. As a special mention to my previous post, the icing on the cake was none-other than my fav band Huey Lewis and the News, The perfect soundtracks for the perfect movie!
This movie is why I started skateboarding! The movie line was so pure, you just got lost in it. Nowadays the movie line is so distorted and convuluted you can hardly understand what they're trying to get at. Also this movie had so many lines that people wanted to say in everday life. This movie was so well done, and the theme music was perfect with Huey Lewis!
My husband's birthday is on October 26th and my birthday is on November 5th, so we like to say this is "our" movie. Loved all three parts of this story! Part II. Biased opinion, though. It's where I developed my crush on MJF When i first heard C. Lloyd and M. Fox were both in the movie,i started to chuckle.
The other actors were superb,but what caught me eye was the skills of Thomas Wilson, what a great addition! He was brilliant as the "bad guy"and i seriously doubt anyone could have done better.
I had wondered for years when a great "time travel" movie would come out that was more set in modern times and entertaining in humor,than previous movies. Without a doubt,BTTF is the very best,and i've watched it over and over a couple million times and still never tire of it. A "Gigawatt" is Megawatts. Also, if you remember, Doc Brown originally plannedto go 25 years into the future I. Now if only we had M. I LUV this movie! Ronald Reagan? The actor? Jerry Lewis? Weren't part 2 and 3 sequels filmed at the same time?
And weren't they the first to do that? I recall it being in the news at the time. No, the first two movies filmed simultaneously were the Three and Four Musketeers movies in II and III were filmed together. The "to be continued You can tell that they had no idea where they were going by the fact that Doc changed his reading of "No, you and Jennifer both turn out fine.
He's lying in the second one. Also, there was no reason to take Jennifer along in II, but they had to because they did at the end of I, so they knocked her out right away.
At the time Superman I was released, people said that Superman I and II were filmed together, but a friend of mine met Christopher Reeve before Superman II came out, and he said they had only filmed parts of the second one with the first. He specifically mentioned that they had to rebuild the Fortress of Solitude or whatever it was called.
Is there a problem with the earth's gravitational pull?? Thanx Michael for making a movie that has me stunned every time its on the screen , can't remember how many times i've seen this since i was a kid but they never get old!
I still want a Mr. Fusion for Christmas! Even after 25 years, these are still new things I'm discovering. I can't believe I never noticed it before until someone pointed it out to me this year, but before Marty goes back in time, it's the Twin Pines Mall, then he runs over a pine tree while escaping from the people whose barn he crashes into and when he gets back, it's the Lone Pine Mall. I must have seen the movie 20 times and I can't believe I missed that. We may not have flying cars in 5 years, but we may have driverless cars thanks to Google.
My house uses water from a well sunk ft. It's cold and clear and tastes great. Every time I fill a pitcher I flash to the scene in BTTF 3 where Marty is sitting at his G-Grandparents table and is served a glass of the most foul looking swamp water imaginable.
My favorite line would have to be in 1 where Doc asks Marty who the President is in And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury! He has to look good on television". I always thought the 1st was the best, then the 3rd, then the 2nd. To me, the second was just a rehash of the first with some extra thown in.
I find it so odd that the article make it sound as if the second was better than the 3rd, which I don't know many that think that. This movie is one of my favorites. I was 15 when it came out and part 1 and 2 were filmed at my school, Whittier High School in the city of Whittier Calif. The movie reflected the life in that city where I grew up and skate boarding got big after that.
Every time I watch it brings back so many memories that the actors, directors and producers can't even imagine. My kids have seen it recently and love it as well. Seen enough of those cars so it wasn't anything special Kept pace with it for a while. The guy did a great job and even had the "Mr. Fusion" power supply on the back. Too bad I didn't have a camera with me at the time, but was lucky I didn't have a car accident either. You should check out the latest Entertainment Weekly— the one where casts are reunited; they've got Lea Thompson and Michael J.
Fox posing in front of a DeLorean that someone in the Midwest maybe Iowa— so I would make sense rebuilt in tribute to the one in the movie, complete with Mr. I guess he drove it out to the photo shoot; must have been the car you saw!
George McFly cracking up a Honeymooners re-run early in the movie. This noble piece of acting work always got me. Everyone always held that special reverence for the big clock tower. Claudia Wells was in I. I guess she had emotional problems. I read somewhere that she had a successful clothing line. The thing that annoyed me was that they tried to make us believe that Crispin Glover was in II and III, when it was a poor lookalike, so they had him upside down or hidden.
But they happily replaced Jennifer with Elizabeth Shue, who was very good, a better actress, but why not just put in a new George? But he got that when he sued them for using scenes from I in II at the dance.
I know I'm not the only one to love this stupid moment: When Doc's model car zooms forward, catches fire, and he goes "Hooh! Biff: That's about as funny as a screen door on a battleship Marty: under his breath It's a screen door on a submarine, you dork. Me and my sister still do the chocolate milk thing that George McFly does I LOVE it!!! I don't really know what it is I guess that doesn't make any sense No, no Hey someone's coming Another moment which I found to be memorable was when Marty was trying to explain to Doc what would happen to him on the night that he goes back, and when he calls out Doc's name, but the ringing "DONG!
Back in college, I was seeing this girl. After a couple dates I sat her down and looked at her all seriously. I said, "I have to tell you something and I don't know how you're going to react, so I'm a bit nervous. Then I looked at her and said, "I'm from the future, in a time machine you built. She didn't appreciate the humor. I thought it was great! Hey all you Cubs fans — you've only got 5 more years to wait before they win the World Series! Loved the flying red Mustang GT.
Can't wait to get the hover conversion done on my ' It's execution was flawless! Nov 5th, is a Red letter date. That means that on Nov 5th we will have to party as it will be 55 years since Marty went back the first time..
During the opening credits of Back to the Future I, one of the clocks is a clock tower with a man hanging from one of the hands of the clock much like Doc does later in the movie. This always made me wonder. Does anyone know anything about it? And I'm pretty sure that Christopher Lloyd and Harold are related in some way shape of form. I watched this a zillion times with my 2 kids when it first came out. And of course, "It's your cousin, Marvin Bery" and one of the overlooked but one of the best — when Huey Lewis says " I'm sorry kids , you're just too darn loud.
They should re-release the whole trilogy in the theaters. That would make for an awesome rainy day at the movies! Favorite line: "I'll have a Tab. I can't give you a Tab, you haven't ordered anything! Then I'll have a Pepsi Free. I'm not giving you a free Pepsi! I watched it with my 11 year old son last weekend. His first time, my 50 thousandth time!
I was pleasantly surprised at how much he enjoyed it! I loved watching this movie as a kid. I had to be 5 or 6 and I can't believe my parents let me watch it over and over. I never watched the first one until much later in life I never realized as a kid all the references to the first movie. I knew Part II by heart. I'm not doing anything today to celebrate Marty McFly day, but for at least 10 years now I plan on having a party on October 21, I hope they make this big of a deal then as they are now.
George Mcfly: Do you really think I oughta swear? Marty McFly: Yes, definitely. Marty: " it's all my fault Strickland, "Slackers!!! You had to go there? I hate people like you who have to relate anything in this world to poltics I always loved that he went back to , I remember and everything looked just like it did in My son was in high school in and he laughed at me going "I remember that". Still a great movie, and the cast was perfect. When Marty comes back after killing one of the pines, it's called "lone pine mall.
Better get used to these bars, kid. I'm your density, I mean, your destiny! I love it when Marty is on stage at Night Under The Sea dance and he jams out on the guitar, "Trust me your kids are gonna love this music. Marty McFLy after shredding 80's guitar at a 's school dance: "Maybe you guys aren't ready for that Great movies, you catch something new every time you watch them.
I just watched Part I a few weeks back and caught something. If you recall in the mall parking lot Doc recalls "I remember when this was all farmland as far the eye could see.
Old man Peabody owned all of this. He had this crazy idea about breeding pine trees. He fires up the DeLorean, and in the process of tearing out of the barn and off the farm he runs over one of the two prominently placed "twin" pine trees, I presume spelling the immediate end to the pine tree "breeding". And therefore in the future there was just a mall instead. I could be wrong, but this was my interpretation of those two scenes—great stuff!
I looked for the "Lone Pine Mall" sign the second time I saw the movie. What great detail. Of course I never picked up the significance of the name, Mr.
Peabody, whose son is supposedly Sherman in the script. Rocky and Bullwinkle fans can appreciate that. I also thought it was funny that Tab and Pepsi Free disappeared from the shelves a few years after the movie came out, although Tab can still be had if you search for it.
Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen: What's your name, dude? Clint Eastwood. Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen: What kind of stupid name is that? If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, yer gonna see some serious sh1t. You alright? You need any help?
What surprised me the most is how much the Biff Actor Thomas Wilson aged 30 years from Biff looks like the actor. And you're right, jlm, he does look like today's Robert Zemeckis.
So many things I love. The DeLorean. The fire trails. The ice cold reentry. The hoverboard. The flying cars. The western. Too many to name. To top it off my birthday is November 12 the real most important date in the whole trilogy! Don't knock Deloreans — they are actually very nice cars, and yes, they will easily do over 88mph. I've never taken mine over mph, but more out of fear of the cops than anything else. Obviously you never worked on one. The bodies would never rot, but everything else did.
A fantastic piece of junk. But you never had to wash them. You could use oven cleaner instead. I can't believe it's been 25 years.
I remember going to see the first movie like it was yesterday. Just reading the comments have brought back great memories. This series will be a favorite and can't wait for my kids to enjoy it too. This is the rare trilogy were there is not a single weak film.
And growing up watching John Wayne movies I loved the third better than the second. Besides, part three features one of my all time favorite lines:. At the movie store I used to work at, we would play different trilogies on Sundays since the day was only seven hours long.
Often this would be one of them. My one boss would often put this on during his shift. These will always remind me of my first job and how much I loved it. Probably the only thing my litte sister and I agreed on growing up: the opening sequence when Marty plugs in the guitar and jacks up the largest amp ever — and gets knocked back across the room after hitting the chord — was the funniest thing in the entire world.
STILL cracks us up to this day. Only one problem with that scene Anyone who has ever played electic guitar knows that his ears would have been blown away when he touched the tip of the guitar cord's plug to the connection on the guitar. The 60 Hz hum and connection noise would have blown out his eardrums before he even hit a chord. That's one of the little technical errors in the film. But I love the series nonetheless! I was 13 when I got the bright idea that I would ramp up all of my parents stero equipment settings and pause the VCR just before the pic hits the chord I pressed play and the loudest explosion I've ever heard blasted through two dual 12in 4foot speakerboxes as my heart leapt out of my chest.
One of my favorite lines is when Doc said "It means your future hasn't been written yet. No one's has. Your future is whatever you make it. So make it a good one, both of you". Okay — most may agree that the third installment of the Back to the Future trilogy was the least memorable, but I have to say Those same fans have taken to Twitter to celebrate the important day in Back to the Future history.
Great Scott! Still one of my favorite movies and trilogies ever!
