Just before Doc got shot, he was going to travel to 2015. He obviously hadn't input 2015, but could you imagine if he had input 2015 then got shot? Marty would've been screwed when he accidentally time traveled to 2015. He's dam lucky he didn't get sent back to 1775, or Jesus's birthday. As Doc had previously input those dates, before putting in 1955.
Granted you have two choices going backwards and one forwards. If you’re avoiding a year/decade, explain why it’d be a bad choice and how it could go wrong or ruin the whole franchise.
Was thinking of picking them up for nostalgia sake - real paper books!!
Is there many differences between the books and the movies? Do they expand more on scenes?
In the first two films, it’s the movie theater, but in the third, it’s the drive-in. Each has a sequence (I think) where the Delorean drives straight into the theater, or the screen.
This was brought to my attention by a conspiracy-riddled YouTube vid about b2tf, which was obviously fos, but still kind of entertaining. At any rate, it made a good point, which is that there seems to be some significance to these scenes. Has anyone noticed? Any thoughts?
I am sure this has been asked before. Although I couldn't find an answer on Google, or reddit. So where did Doc go at the end of part 3? According to him he wasn't going to head into the future again. I've always assumed he went back to 1885, but wanted to show Marty he was okay before going home. The reason the Train went into hover mode, was because the tracks weren't finshed in 1885. That's always been my Explanation, but maybe there's an actual answer from the actors or something?
I understand reactions to the sequels became better with time. And how did you felt when you found out that Part II ended on a cliffhanger?
I wonder if Marty would have destroyed the time machine when he got home, like Doc wanted. Had it not been hit by a train.
I've watched the Back To The Future trilogy so many times. I love them. They're my favorite movies.
I like to Think since Marty learned to control himself, when challenged and did not race Needles in 85. He did not end up working that crappy Office Job, we see him get fired from. But instead went on to become a Famous Rockstar. Which was obviously his dream.
The whole reason Doc took Marty to 2015, was to stop the event that would destroy his family. That being Marty JR getting caught during a Robbery. However, we see Old Marty do something Illegal that gets him fired. We never see the long term consequences of that, but I'd be willing to bet that also leads to Marty's life going down the Tube's. Luckily Marty does learn to control himself when challenged, as it only lead to him making poor decisions. That would In turn screw up his life over and over again.
There's a deleted scene in part 2, that shows Biff fading away In 2015. It was later stated that Lorraine had killed Biff in the 1990s. So Biff never became the old man we saw in the original 2015. But wouldn't this create a Paradox? If Biff wasn't alive in 2015 then he couldn't have gone back to 1955. Also Doc explains they can't go back to 2015, to save 1985. Because it will be the 2015 of the bad reality. But if there's an alternative future, Doc and Marty never saw. Then Marty couldn't have bought the book, and set the whole chain of events off. Man a person could crazy thinking about all this. 😅🤔
If in the original 1985 timeline Lorraine told Marty that she met George through an incident on the road, does that mean that in the new 1985 alternate Marty was told the backstory about George defending Lorraine from Biff? Technically, it means that it's not a time loop since Marty from the new timeline shouldn't start to disappear in 1955 after saving George from an incident because it was intended that way.
Custom commission piece, it’s about 30” wide!
I've been obsessed with the video game lately and I think that with how games have developed the past 14 years they could make an awesome video game even if it's a small indi company. Only issue is I know these woke companies will make lots of it unbearable. Do you think it's a good idea to make another or leave it as it is?
BUT , he didnt have to come back at all .. He could have stranded Doc, Jennifer and marty in 2015 , with no one alive to investigate the almanac handoff. Doc and martys surroundings would have changed around them with the ripple effect, but theyd have no machine to do anything about it . The paradoxes would be endless , because old biff would have lived and died in the past , and Marty doc and jennifer would be stuck in the future permanently
