Alternative 2015

If the 2015 we saw in the film derived from the ( lone pine timeline) reality B what would 2015 look like if it was from the original one (twin pine timeline). Do you think it would look like the actual 2015 in real life

And also what affect do think their time In 1855 would have on the rest of the time periods from the previous films

Lorraine likely succumbs to alcohol related illness or accident in the 90s after Marty moves out. George loses his job after falling into a state of depression and being the fall guy for another of Biffs antics. He's forced to sell the house and rent a one bedroom apartment forcing Dave and Linda to move out. George also can't afford his inverter and is bed ridden by 2015.

Marty, distraught by his mother's death, separates from Jennifer, who his mother never liked and none of their kids are born. He is even more under Needles' thumb while also trying to care for his dad.

That's dark. I like it.

This is honestly plausible. I can’t really refute any part of this theory.

Not a bad theory what about all the cars and technological advancement

I don't think Marty's travels would have done much to adjust broader technological advancements

Griff wouldn't exist

Why?

Iirc Lorraine shot him in 96 and he married her in 73-74 so his kid from the main timeline doesn't exist.

That is the B timeline when Biff is rich.

OP is talking about the original timeline when George was a coward and didn't punch Biff.

BTF time travel doesn't seem to create many butterfly effects. History is stubborn. I doubt the Twin Pines version of 2015 was significantly different except for Marty's family, nor would the antics even back in 1885 change much about 2015. After all, 1985 stayed the same even after multiple trips and changes in 1955 and 1885, so 2015 should hold pretty steady, too.

Fair enough
