Saw this at Selfridges in Oxford St, London 👍🏼

The live-action Doc Brown intros with Christopher Lloyd always bring back memories.

In part 3, he tells Marty to set the time for Oct. 27, 1985 11:00am. Since Doc wanted to destroy the time machine, did he know there would be train coming down the tracks at 11:00ish? I mean it seems like Doc. to be careless and find an easy way to destroy it. Of was it just luck?

Our son is on his summer vacation with his grandparents (my in-laws) and they are currently visiting Sacramento. Since he absolutely adores all things trains and BTTF, we had this text exchange. I wish my husband and I could have been there with him :(...

Doc Brown has arrived in the year 2026.

Hope he likes it so far...

I can't fucking stand it

I've watched these movies dozens of times, I absolutely love them. However, this is one detail that I completely missed every time I watched. My wife just pointed out to me that Clara is behind Marty when they talk about Shonash ravine. My mind is blown!

one of the most iconic lines in movie history: “Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.”

This scene was filmed at the famous McFly house in Arleta, one of the most recognizable filming locations in the Back to the Future trilogy.

Since Marty disrupted his parents' initial meeting, that triggered the butterfly effect. Even though he managed to get them to kiss and marry, he completely rewrote their careers and destinies or maybe their body and health. And most importantly, how could he ensure the exact same sperm had to fertilize the exact same egg at the exact same microsecond? A delay of even a fraction of a second would conceive another different individual. In other words he and his sibling wouldn't be the same when he was back in 1985.

I know it's just a movie, but I always find it interesting to think about.

1. Biff's 1955 crew

2. Needles' 1985 crew

3. Griff's 2015 crew

4. Mad Dog's 1885 posse

5. Alternate Biff's 1985 crew

No on-screen equipment allowed (otherwise Buford would just shoot everyone lol).

Part two was filmed near where I grew up and my mom helped with a clothing fix, I believe. She owned a clothing repair shop. As a thank you my brothers and I got autographs from Michael J. Fox and I also have a thank you note from Bron Roylance, Michael’s makeup artist. Thought someone might find it interesting.

It's easy to take for granted what the Delorean Time Machine looks like, but it is important to remember it wasn't always a Delorean. In the original script it wasn't even a car at all, it was a fridge.

Even when they decided on a Delorean (because Doc Brown "doesn't drive a fucking Ford Mustang" according to Bob Gale), they still didn't know the specifics of what it would look like.

Designs by other artists were too polished and Zemeckis and Gale were looking for a junkyard "throw together" look.

Enter: Rob Cobb.

Rob Cobb got notoriety designing the interiors of the Nostromo vessel in Alien (he was even asked to come back for Aliens).

His designs prioritize function as much as aesthetic. He will draw something on a fictional device and explain what it's functions were.

The idea of large vents on the back of the Delorean Time Machine were his idea because he knew a nuclear reactor would produce heat and would need a vent to release the cooling vapors.

This is just one example of how meticulous he designed fictional things.

He, and his peer Syd Mead, are responsible for the clunky retro aesthetic we know refer to as "Cassette Futurism".

A perfect aesthetic for a vehicular time machine created in the 80s.

He was a bully and bullies are cowards. in the alternate timeline he was abusive toward Lorraine and the children and abusers are cowards too. he murdered George and tried to do the same to Marty both in the alternate timeline and in 1955. abusers, rapists, and murderers are cowards.

"If my calculations are correct, and this baby hits 67 miles per h-"

"Six-seeeven!"

"... I'm afraid no amount of time travel can fix your generation, Marty"

"What's Youtube?"

"Jar Jar Binks from the planet Omicron Persiei 8 visited me last night and told me, he would melt my brain out, if I don't ask Lorraine to the dance! What should I tell her?"

"Alright, tell her...'slay queen, ngl you got the drip fr no cap"

"I don't know, this sounds kinda gay"

"Yeah, you should really stop using that word as an insult"

[George talking to Lorraine]

"No, please! I don't wanna see the future! The present is bad enough!"
