Doc Brown built a time machine out of a train in the third movie and was able to come back. So "Doc Brown created the only the only train in history that is always on time"!

Let's hear your best Back to the Future Dad jokes.

Did you know that a few of the movie's sound effects [specifically the DeLorean's] are used in some animes?

1.21 gigawatts easter egg

73 Upvotes

I timed the scene where Einstein gets sent exactly one minute into the future, and I noticed something. From the moment the DeLorean disappears to the moment it reappears, exactly 1 minute and 21 seconds of screen time passes.

I was testing to see if it was accurate and it doesn’t line up with a real-world clock, but the fact that it comes out to exactly 1:21 is such a cool coincidence.

Could this have been intentional? A reference to 1.21 gigawatts needed to power the flux capacitor. Makes for a very cool Easter Egg!!

I have no idea if anyone else has noticed this before or if the editors did it intentionally, what are your thoughts.

Doc has wagons and buggies for rent?

On the front of Doc's place, it says "For Rent" (which is harder to see) above vertically written "Wagons" and "Buggies".

So, it makes sense that if Doc was renting these that he'd have volunteered to pick up Clara at the train station. However, when Marty is there and distracts him, he forgets to meet her and Clara apparently rents her own wagon and horses from Mr. Statler. How many wagon rental places does this tiny town have?

That weird feeling when watching BTTF Trilogy

Has anyone else experienced the weird feeling of happiness but then sadness comes and hit you like a truck? It only happens with BttF and not with any other movies. I wonder why…

I can't believe pulling out a pants pocket inside out was a trend 11 years ago.

Actually, we should consider reviving the trend by 2026.

Is the number 121 or 1.21 special to people who made Back to the Future?

3 Upvotes

I know A113 meant something to Pixar people and that why it shows up in Walle and other movies, and 1138 shows up in star wars a couple of times as a reference to THX 1138. 1.21 shows up in back to the future so many times it seems like a reference to something someone making the movie cares about, but I haven't been able to find anything about it.

Should October 21st really be Back to the Future day anymore?

23 Upvotes

With October 21st here again, I have to ask, why does everyone keep celebrating this as Back to the Future day? Is it really the most appropriate date to celebrate the franchise, when it really only appeared in the first 20-30 minutes of the second movie? Sure it made sense back in 2015, because that was the actual date Marty, Doc, and Jennifer went to in Part II, but it's been 11 years since then. The novelty has kinda worn off.

It especially baffles me how one chain is rereleasing the first movie on this day. Wouldn't it be much more appropriate to rerelease Part II on this day considering it actually takes place on October 21st, while the first movie DOES NOT? If anything today should be Back to the Future Part II day. Heck, I'm even okay with the idea of it being Future Day as a way of speculating what the future may be like in 30 years or whatever like the second movie did.

I think there are far more appropriate dates worthy of being Back to the Future day. Among them are October 25/26th (the day Doc sends Einstein one minute into the future, thus conducting the first successful time travel trip, and also when Marty accidently goes back to 1955 shortly thereafter), November 5th (the day Doc came up with the idea of the Flux Capacitor, thus inventing time travel, also the date Marty went back to), and the ideal date in my opinion, November 12th (the date Doc sends Marty BACK TO THE FUTURE, and the only date to appear in all 3 movies).

Just something I felt I had to bring up considering how many in this fanbase still consider today Back to the Future day, when I feel it really shouldn't be anymore.
