People always ask how do George and Loraine not remember what Marty looked like, but in their defense, who remembers exactly what someone they knew for a week looked like after not seeing them for 10 years, let alone 30?

Fun fact. The teacher who disqualified Marty's band during the audition for being "too darn loud" is played by Huey Lewis and he is actually the artist who recorded that song and made it a hit.

“My hair didn't look that good in high school!" This was the 1980s. Everyone's hair looked good. 😂

I lost it when she said "What if those were the lottery numbers?" Now that she's seen Part II she knows...

Fun Fact: Power of Love was written for this film, and the person who told Marty that he was "to darn loud" wrote the song.

One of my favorite little visual gags is Marty trying to twist off the cap of that Pepsi bottle, and George just takes it over to the bottle opener for him. All while not breaking a beat in their conversation. It's funny, it's conveying information, it's showing George being fatherly to Marty while being told about destiny...

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that in film classes this movie is used as an example of a "perfect script" it's flawless and has everything. Such a great movie.

A major theme that I didn't pick up on when I first watched it, was the way that Marty and his father are so alike. Marty says he is scared of playing in front of people because "what if they don't like it". Back in the 50s his father says the same thing about his writing. Then of course out of neccessity Marty has to get up the courage to play in front of the 50s school, and with his fathers new found confidence he ends up writing books in the future.

One of my favorite movies from my childhood! You gonna love those, every single movie is filled with little easter eggs and references. For example in this one: At the start of the movie the mall was called "Twin Pines Mall". But after he traveled back in time (and crashed his car), now the mall is called "Single Pine Mall"

BttF is just about the most perfectly written movie EVER. It’s absolutely top-notch structured and paced. Every_single_line is there for a purpose (NO filler!) This script, still in 2023, is used in schools all over the world, to exemplify how to write a golden screenplay (no lie) BttF is one of my few all-time favorites; A simple touching story (but absolutely genius and wholely original) Classic dialog from beginning to end. Amazing iconic characters, with chemistry to spare. Beautifully acted, produced and directed. The soundtrack is masterclass perfection and the constant thrills of scenes escalating, all throughout, is just amazing… Oh right, and it also has one of the_most badass and iconic movie-posters of all time! (That was when movie-posters was still ART, and not cheaply photoshopped imagery) THANKS for this watch-long, greatly enjoyed your reactions :-)

If you do the next one, its worth knowing that its full of callbacks to the first movie so its kind of worth watching while its fresh in your memory.

This is one of my all-time favorite movies. The best part is that I went to Universal Studios in California, and they actually still have the entire set of Back To The Future there with the clocktower and the road, it was amazing to witness. It is a memory I'll cherish forever

Your facial impressions in all those weird "mother son relation" scenes are priceless🤣🤣🤣 Btw Marty didn´t forgot how to play on the stage. He was partly disappearing from existance. That´s why you can watch through his hand in that one scene. Anyways I enjoyed your reaction as much as the movie itself...and I saw it first time when it came out. So where you come from it´s an oldie, to me it was brandnew a few years back.

There's a whole WORLD of great old movies for you to discover, from the 1940s through the 1990s. You're gonna love starting this channel.

20:21 No matter how many times I’ve seen it (a lot) I always flinch when Marty hits his head on the road.

Hi Miranda-DeLorean! I just found your channel thanks to the algorithm, and I'm a new fan. Your expressions are epic, and your laugh is everything. This entire trillogy is amazing. So many small things get changed or referenced in time, like the mall name change because Marty runs over one of Mr Peabody's twin pines in 1955. I am so excited for your reaction channel. This is going to be so much fun. I can't wait for what you watch next. Right now, I'm off to see your original Psycho movie reaction. That is going to be a blast! Thank you for the hard work you put into this channel. I know it's time-consuming and a huge pain with the copyright police always on your case. But, I'm grateful for you putting out this content because you're a lot of fun to watch. You have an amazing personality. It makes me so happy when young people watch, respect, and even love the movies I grew up on. P.S. if you didn't catch it, the teacher who told Marty his band was "too darn loud" was actually Huey Lewis, who wrote and performs the song Marty's band was playing. They were playing it a bit more "hard rock" than the song actually is... hence Huey's dislike of it. Lol.

Cool reaction The BTTF trilogy is, to me, the greatest movie trilogy ever. All 3 movies are just as good as this one. And, thank God, it's one of the very few saga from the 80' who did not had a sequel or a reboot in the 2000' because R. Zemeckis (the director of all 3 movies) has specifically said they won't be one as long as he's alive. Marty and Doc have had enough of adventures I love the attention to the details in these movies.Exemple : At the beginning, the experiment happens on the parking lot and there's a sign wrote "Two Pines Mall", then when he arrives in the past, as he's leaving the barn he bumps into a tree and you can hear the man yell "My pine !". Then, when Marty come back to 1985, the sign says "Lone Pine Mall". Brilliant !

As someone who grew up in the '50's, I can tell you that they captured every nuance of that time in regards to how different it was from '85 and of course today. (So many movies are set in the past and so often they don't get the different attitudes. These other movies seem just like costume parties.) For instance, in 1955, the transistor was just being perfected and at the time, no one would have have had the small earphones like Marty inserted into his father's ears. (Nor heard any music like that.) ---- I love recent history and old movies by definition are historically accurate. One of my favorites (for so many reasons) is It's a Wonderful Life, showing a glimpse of what it was like living in the 1919-1946 era, made by people who actually experience it. The 1962 Music Man was set in 1912, and again, the people involved had dated that far back or almost that far, so they capture the feel. (The recent remake is as bad in my opinion as the original is good.)

the best trilogy ever. I've heard that this is used in film schools all over the world to learn how it's done...

I love how this movie has something for everyone, a romance plot, some drama, sci-fi, comedy, a bit of action, and period costumes. You'll really enjoy the rest of the trilogy, they 're so good.

Great reaction! The entire trilogy is definitely worth watching, so I hope you're planning to follow up with the next two films. The second one is particularly cool as it incorporates a lot of the events of the first film in an interesting way. You mention that the ending sets up a sequel, but that wasn't actually the intention. The ending was intended just as a joke since nobody knew how popular the movie would be. It was somewhat of a problem when the first film became such a success because they were forced to write the second movie based on what Doc says at the end of the first film.

Gotta say, it's might big of George MacFly to never get suspicious or jealous that their third kid turns out to look exactly like the boy he knows his wife had a huge crush on.

One of my favorite thing about the scene where George finally Hit Biff, is that Loraine also jump on Biff while he was twisting George's arm, it's something I don't see any Reactor adress, but the fundation of their couple is that they defend each other.

Love the lightbulb 💡 moment at 11:16 “Miran - DeLorean” 😂😂 You’re awesome ❤❤

It's interesting seeing someone watch this for the first time after all these years. I was old enough to jump on the bandwagon when the second and third movies came out so it's nostalgic for me. But to see someone enjoy it without the nostalgia is just proof that it's the greatest movie of all time.

"His dad is a peeping tom and his mother is a low key stalker", his mum is also an exhibitionist. Her father mentioned multiple guys had fallen out of that tree. But I love the juxtaposition with how they are when older, like they've all conveniently forgotten how they were in the heady days of their hormonal youth.

i also think its so funny, that the guy that plays Biff is the sweetest guy in the world

"Do you know how fast you were going?" 'I'm sorry, officer. No, I don't.' "88MPH" '......... I was trying to get back to 1955?'

No, Trump did not get his inspiration for this hairstyle from Biff in this movie. They deliberately modeled Biff after Trump (who has been around a long time). Wait until you see the first sequel, if you get a chance to see it.

This trilogy is so good 😭 One of my favorites for sure! Such a classic! You’re gonna love it! Also going to universal studios in Orlando and hearing the BTTF theme song playing is so hype 😂😂

10:55 Twin Pines Mall, 16:51 Bye bye Pine, 40:30 Lone Pine Mall

He wasn't "forgetting how to play" he was disappearing from the timeline.

At the dance it wasn’t that Marty was forgetting how to play he was disappearing from existence which was affecting the way he played cause his arm was fading. The filming of this was amazing. All the night scenes were filmed at night during the week after Michael J Fox finished his role on Family Ties and they did the day shots on the weekends when he didn’t have to shoot Family Ties. He slept in the back of vehicles as they drove him from set to set and slept a couple hours in his own bed between filming this movie and Family Ties. The drunk that sees Marty come back to 1985 and says “crazy drunk driver” was the mayor back in 1955.

🎶 "That's The Power Of Love!" 🎶 Fun Fact: The judge who stands up to say that Marty is "just too darn loud" is Huey Lewis, whose songs "The Power Of Love" and "Back In Time" are featured in this movie. Small Connection Fact: When Lorraine follows Marty back to Doc's house, she and Doc exchange an awkward greeting. This marks the only on-screen dialogue that Christopher Lloyd and Lea Thompson ever have, though they have appeared together in six movies. Automobile Enthusiast Fact: Writers Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis actually received a fan letter from John DeLorean after the film's release, thanking them for immortalizing his car.

Great reaction. As an FYI, they actually didn’t plan on a sequel. That was supposed to be the end with them flying into the air to the year 2015! The sequel idea happened later after it was such a huge hit!

The reason his parents don't recognize him is because he was only in the '50s for one week. Out of that, he was only with his parents on and off for a couple of days. To them he was just some random kid who popped up for a couple of days, 30 years ago, then left. It would make sense that their memories of him would be pretty sketchy.

Ok, so I grew up in the 80's and 90's and I feel very old when I say we had the best movies and music ever. Sort of a "Back in my day" feeling. It is so rewarding watching all of the young people react to our stuff and say, "Wow" this is so great these movies make sense and the music is great. Yeah we know wish you were there. Much love and keep on keepin on J.

GREAT SCOTT! You’ve never seen BTTF! Well awesome for us that we get a reaction, but this is unfathomable to me! I hope you enjoy the whole trilogy, the second is my favourite. Though the third has a soft spot in my heart because it’s my father’s favourite and we used to watch it all the time together. Heh, great story Miranda… Some fun facts about this movie. In the original script it was going to be a refrigerator instead of a DeLorean. They scrapped that idea because they were worried about kids copying the movie and accidentally trapping themselves inside of them and they could injure or kill themselves inside of one. Along with the fridge idea, the original way to get back to the future was a nuclear detonation. Marty had to be near one to get back. They used “nuking the fridge” for another movie later on. Also , Marty originally changed his present by accidentally revealing the secret to doc about his invention, Coca Cola. With this info Doc changed the future and brought about the future the 1950s thought was going to happen. However his music caused a riot at the dance so the Rock and Roll revolution never happened. Marty then takes it upon himself to belatedly start it in the 80s. Oh and the guy at the dance reviewing the bands who says Marty is “too loud” is Huey Lewis, the singer behind the theme song at the beginning “The Power of Love.” I have way more trivia, but this would be way too long! I need to watch already!

Doc - "Marty, You've given me something to shoot for..." I've seen this movie a million times, and....wow. Just caught that.

I always enjoy watching people react to seeing movies that are old favorites of mine. A few fun bits of trivia that are probably already somewhere in the hundreds of earlier comments I'm too lazy to read: - The producers had trouble getting a studio to take the movie. Disney thought the plot was too raunchy, while most other studios thought it wasn't raunchy enough! - Michael J. Fox was starring in a sitcom called "Family Ties" at the time the movie was being filmed, so the producers initially cast a different actor named Eric Stoltz as Marty. The actors for Marty's parents were cast in their roles because they looked enough like Stoltz to convincingly pass for his parents. After most of the shooting was complete, the producers realized that Stoltz wasn't a good fit for Marty, cast Fox in the role (he had to survive on 2-4 hours of sleep a night because he was filming BTTF and Family Ties at the same time) and had to reshoot the whole film. - The guy who stops Marty's band because they're "just too darn loud" was Huey Lewis, the singer who sang the "Power of Love" song that you were (rightly) jamming to just a few minutes earlier in the movie. He ad-libbed the "too darn loud" line because it was the dumbest reason he could think of for a band being rejected. - The other guitarist in the band was a cameo by Michael J. Fox's guitar coach, who taught him to play the guitar for the movie. - The movie was released in the summer of 1985, a few months before the 1985 parts of the story were set. A group of hardcore fans actually spent the night of the "back in time" scene in October at the mall parking lot, but surprisingly, there was no sign of Marty, Doc, Einstein, or Libyan terrorists in a VW bus. - When the gun jammed and the vehicle stalled, the terrorist with the gun said "Damn Soviet gun!" and the driver said "Damn German car!" - In the novelization of the movie, Marty tries to pay for his coffee with a $20 bill, much to the shock of the cafe owner, who is suspicious of a teenager having so much money on him. - Then President Ronald Reagan absolutely loved the joking reference to himself in the movie, and even referenced the film in a later State of the Union address. - Tom Wilson, who played Biff, modeled the character's personality after bullies he had had to deal with in his own school days. He ad-libbed many of Biff's lines, like "why don't you make like a tree and get out of here!" - Eddie Van Halen recorded the music on the cassette tape especially for the film. - Eric Stoltz is still in a single shot of the movie as Marty: the scene when Marty sucker-punches Biff in the cafe. The shot was left in because Stoltz's face wasn't visible in the shot, only his arm and the back of his head. - The "manure" in the films were actually peat moss, which is similar in appearance, but lacks the smell (and germs) of actual manure. - The prop team played a prank on Fox in the "parking" scene: the prop liquor bottle was supposed to be filled with water, but the crew slyly filled it with actual liquor, which Fox spat out in surprised disgust. - One of the other songs that was considered for the band at the dance to be playing when George and Lorraine kissed was "Turn Back the Hands of Time," by Eddie Fisher (father of Princess Leia actress Carrie Fisher). - Crispin Glover (who played George McFly) deeply disliked the ending of the movie because he saw it as being too materialistic. This led to his declining to return for the sequels a few years later. The producers then cast a look-alike as George, complete with prosthetic facial features made from casts of Glover's face (which the producers had from when the first movie was made). Glover understandably filed a lawsuit, which led to laws being passed that kept filmmakers from using similar tactics in the future.

great reaction! such a classic movie...looking forward to your reaction to part 2!

Why do you only have 3 movie reactions?! We need to get you more! I loved this! Absolutely love your reactions! Shout out from the US Marine Corps!

Someone else may have posted, but the teacher who told Marty that his band was "just too darn loud," was Huey Lewis, who wrote and played the soundtrack, including THAT song (The Power of Love). Huey Lewis and the News. There's also a great cameo of Harrison Ford, as the driver of the JEEP that Marty hitches a ride on. Ford is also wearing glasses and a ball cap. Really enjoyed your reaction, and looking forward to more.

Last time I watched these I was probably a teenager and it was almost a 20 year old movie, but it still held up. Fast forward another near 20 years and a video about the brief history of the delorian car makes me curious if it land the same on a nostalgia-less set of eyes. I can say from watching these reactions that it is truly as timeless as it felt from the beginning. What a feat!

Since you like classic Sci-Fi, "Forbidden Planet" is also a must see. Despite the cheesiness of the era, the concept is actually pretty deep.

in the materials for the anniversary edition of the trilogy, the director tells that when Reagan watched the film, he would choke with laughter when he heard the joke about himself!After regaining his composure, he had the cameraman play the scene again.

1) This movie was made prior to 2016 when everyone really loved Donald Trump because he was still a Democrat. Tom Wilson has said that his inspiration for Biff came from his old High School bullies. 2) In the beginning the mall is called "Twin Pines Mall" but changes to Lone Pine Mall" at the end because Marty ran over one of Old Man Peabody's trees. 3) When Marty presents Doc the reconstituted picture of his family at the end and says "He never stood up to Biff in his life" you can see Doc considering the possibility that you CAN mess around with the space-time continuum without screwing this up, prompting him to read the letter. 4) Don't count Biff out. He went from a middle manager in a dead end job to becoming a rather polite small business owner. 5) Once you watch the second and third instalments of BTFF (and you will, because this is the BEST movie trilogy ever told), you'll realize at the end that there are actually 4 DeLorean time machines during Marty's time in 1955!

What is so fun about these reactions to these movies is that they still have probably many more watchings to go before they catch on to some of the gags that make this trilogy so great - like the twin pines/lone pines mall thing or Huey Lewis being the guy saying his band is too loud. Just amazing.

This is such a brilliant, creative screenplay. Everything fits, everything makes sense.

First let me say it is a sincere pleasure to re-experience a film with you. I just want to say that when you said that they "so obviously were setting it up for a sequel" that is not the case. That entire ending was just the final joke. Not only did they not anticipate a sequel Bob Zemeckis was fighting the idea of a sequel. He was blackmailed into it. Although he created the movie the studio owned the rights and they told him if he didn't do a sequel, they would do one without him (think TEEN WOLF TOO or THE JERK TOO of course you have probably never heard of those but there is a reason). So Zemeckis talked to everyone involved and they all said they would get on board if he was going to do it. Oh... Except Crispin Glover, he was the only one that held out for more money, and they said they would find a way to work around it without him. I see that you have watched the sequels, so I am sure that you have seen how they worked around it. I look forward to watching you watch them.

Miranda, thanks for NOT talking too much. I prefer to watch reactors who convey most of their reactions through emotions, so I very much enjoyed watching you react in this way. Also, you have a great laugh. I’ll keep watching, have great day!

I would like to nominate North by Northwest (1959) and The Sting (1973) as movies you could watch next. So glad you could see this gem.

😎👍 From 1978 - 2004, director Robert Zemeckis had one of the most incredible runs in the history of show business. Not a single bad film during that period. You would also enjoy "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" (1978), "Romancing The Stone" (1984), "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" (1988), "Death Becomes Her" (1992), "Forrest Gump" (1994), "Contact" (1997), and "Cast Away" (2000).

So fun personal story related to this movie. When my wife and I got married, our wedding cake had a bunch of geek quotes written on the side of the cake, including George's "I am your density". The bakery actually spell-checked out cake to "destiny".

Don't know if anyone mentioned it already, but the guy that tells Marty at the tryout with his band that he is just too darn loud is actually Huey Lewis.

Please do Part 2. It is phenomenal. Your reaction had me laughing. Really really awesome. Keep it up!!!

I so hope you decide to see the two sequels. As far as sequels go, these two are among the best. Fantastic reaction!

So fun watching you young folks watching these "old" movies for the first time and enjoying them. And it's particularly interesting to see the things your generation notices that weren't even a thing back when we were your age.

The friendship between him and doc brown was my favorite part. You see that even more in the next 2 movies.

YES! Thank you very much for watching one of my favourite movies Miranda, and please do the rest of this trilogy next! These are movies I can rewatch like it's the first time, with the same tension every time, even though I know very well what's gonna happen and only discovering new easter eggs :D Edit: I agree with the T-shirt stuff, everyone wearing certain bands' merch should be able to name 3 songs from them :D I also only dared to buy a discunted Rocky Balboa hoodie, because I've seen and liked the first four Rocky movies :D

Both sequels are good, and form a larger complete story that is really well done. When you mentioned wanting to watch Grease it made me wonder if you have seen American Grafitti. It’s set in 1962 and is full of old music, cars, and fun characters.

Crazy you never watched this iconic trilogy. I've watched all three multiple times. (DVD SET) Never gets old. So fun to watch you enjoy for the first time. Your so entertaining.

40:10 "Red" the homeless man is the former mayor of Hill Valley in 1955, Red Thomas.

Lea Thompson is Zoey Deutch's mom. I learned this today. Also, yes, the character for Biff was inspired by the Orange Orangutan who was an a-hole back in the '80s. Some things never change.

This was a great reaction. Hope you react to the other 2.

okay forget all the impossible time travel stuff, the problem i have with this movie is - when Lorraine follows Marty to Doc’s house, why the F did Doc let her into his garage?? he could have just said “GO AWAY THERES NO MARTY HERE!” but no he lets her in anyway 😂😂

You need to spend 2 minutes after having seen this movie, and watch the parody commercial of this movie called "Brokeback to the Future". It makes you think of phrases in a whole different way, it's hilarious.

You shouldn't be so judgmental, that Donald Trump crack was un called for. You offended a lot of people. The sleeping in his cloths thing, really? Other than that I enjoyed your reaction. I suggest you watch my favorite John Wayne movie "The Quiet Man". Filmed in Ireland and is very charming and funny.

The down thumb is bc of your political opinion.

18:33 This little exchange about ordering a “Tab” (Coca-Cola’s first popular diet soda, not available until 1963 and only recently discontinued) and being told he can’t get a tab (a running tabulation of purchases) until he orders something, and then ordering a “Pepsi Free” (the original name of Caffeine-Free Pepsi, first introduced in 1982) and being told if he wants a Pepsi he’s got to pay for it, is especially notable because it was one of the main reasons that Pepsi changed the name of the product just two years later, in 1987, to Caffeine-Free Pepsi (and Caffeine Free Diet Pepsi). A wonderful little case of film influencing a real life product!

When Marty goes to the mall the first time the sign says Twin Pines Mall. When he goew back at traveling back to the 50s ( after having run over one of old man Peabody's pine tree) the sign says Lone Pine Mall. That level of detail runs through each episode.

One thing TV Tropes adds: When Doc decides "what the hell?" and reads Marty's letter. We clearly saw him react when Marty said that his dad "never stood up to Biff in his life," so Doc knows, or strongly suspects, that Marty has changed something. As the next 30 years unfolds, and he sees what happens to the McFly family, and no universe-ending consequences, he realizes that maybe changing the future isn't such a dire proposition, and decides "What the hell?" Also, the ending has been criticized for being "materialistic," that Marty's parents have better stuff, his siblings wear better clothes and least one has a better job, Marty has the pickup truck he'd pined over in the beginning. But I'd like to point out something from the SF Debris review of the film. The ending isn't about Marty's parents having better stuff, it's that, because of the changes Marty made to the timeline, they have *become better people,* motivated to set goals for themselves and work to achieve those goals. Marty's dad never believed he was any good or that he could take rejection if people didn't like his stories. But as a result of standing up to Biff, he has the courage write and keep writing, to keep trying until he becomes a published author. Note that Lorraine specifically says George's *first* novel just arrived, and the dude's in his 40s. He may have had some short stories published before, but he's doubtless gotten a mountain of rejection letters. But he hasn't given up, and that hard work is finally being rewarded. And because George is setting goals and working hard, Lorraine isn't just sitting back and watching her life pass by, but is also working on improving herself. Either she's supporting the family while George writes and doesn't get paid for it, or he's holding down a job and writing and she's supporting him, or most likely they're both working. And they've passed these lessons to their kids; Dave not only works in an office but is going in on a Saturday, yet is still living with his parents because he's probably not high up enough yet to be totally financially independent. But he's working towards it. Before, all the McFlys were just drifting through life, just taking what they were being given because they didn't believe they could attain anything better. Now they know they can, and they're working hard to fulfill their dreams. This has had the side effect of improving the material quality of their lives, but they and their house look nicer because they actually care enough to put in the work to look nice, instead of being slobs living in disarray because why bother?

it's not that he was forgetting how to play, his body was stating to go fade away

Back to the future …simply the best movie for all times !!!!

BttF is my all-time favorite film. One of the best movies of all time (the script is often used as an example of a perfect script in film classes). One fun fact, Tom Wilson (who plays the bully Biff) is the nicest guy in real life. When he was shooting the scene with Lorraine in the car, he kept apologizing to her for his inappropriate behavior. Lea Thompson (who plays Lorraine) kept telling him its perfectly fine, they are just acting 🙂

36:33 During Marty's guitar scene with Marvin Berry calling his cousin "Chuck" it was none other than Chuck Berry, the man who originally wrote that song, "Johnny B. Goode"!! In a weird time loop situation, Chuck inspires Marty who then inspires Chuck. Marty changes the past with that performance but now, Chuck gets the song from "himself" in a roundabout way.

My grade 10 English teacher rented this as a case study for foreshadowing. If you pay close attention to the ticking clocks at the beginning as the camera pans past them you'll spot a small replica of a man hanging off a clock-face "foreshadowing" what happens to the Doc late in the movie at the actual clock tower. Apparently the number chosen for 88 miles was for luck (Chinese revere it as a lucky number) and Spielberg's prior production was the "cursed" Twilight Zone movie which had a notable helicopter accident. Also the address number for Doc's house is 1640 Riverside drive convert to actual time that's 4:40pm 4+4=8 The clock tower that is struck by lighting is hit at 10:04 pm on a Saturday October 26 (2+6=8 again). 10:04 comes out to 22:04 military time (2+2+4=8).

The funny thing is, when Marty was auditioning at the beginning, the committee that rejected him based on the song he played being "too loud" was actually played by the band that originally performed it :)

Great video, im glad you decided to finally watch it. When I saw this movie as a kid in the 80s, this movie really resonated with me, and I think with many kids at the time. It was the first movie that made me realize I really had more power than I thought to actually control what my future could be like. It stuck with me, and gave me hope that "if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything ". This movie was my favorite movie of all time. It also focused on the importance of chivalry, and finding the strength to stand up to others; believe in yourself, because you're capable of a lot more than what you think. This movie has so many great life lessons for young people. It's inspiring and classic. So much that I made it a goal to own a Delorean, to which is a joy to share with my family and friends, and incredibly enough, it really is a time machine into great memories of the 80s and my youth with every drive. Enjoy this masterpiece, thanks for helping others discover this gem.

Under-appreciated jokes: “Give me a Pepsi Free” (a type of caffeine-free Pepsi, introduced in the 1982, so the guy at the bar thinks he’s asking for a free Pepsi) “If you want a Pepsi you’re going to pay for it” “Fine I’ll just have Tab” -> Tab was another popular sugar-free soda that was created in the 1960s and popular in the 80s, so again the guy at the bar doesn’t know what he’s talking about “If you want a tab, you gotta order something” -> old diners like this used to allow customers to run up a “tab”, which was basically an account the customer had at the diner, where they didn’t have to pay every time they came in, and they would settle up every week or so

The Ronald Reagan joke was always one of my faves. Imagine the same joke a few decades later in another time-travel show or movie when Arnold Shwarzenegger was Gov. of California from 2003 - 2011. "Then who's Lt. Governor? Sylvester Stallone?" 🤣🤣🤣

Some trivia. At the beginning of the movie Marty leaves Doc's place next to a Burger King I used to eat at all the time. That street is Victory Place in Burbank, CA and I had a business about a half mile up the street. Also, the old bum on the park bench you'll see in the films was a very good friend of mine... Buck Flower. Before he became a regular actor, early on he had been in a number of adult films, one of which is showing at the theater (in the years the town had become somewhat seedy in the 2nd movie) close to the clocktower. The director thought it would be funny to poke fun at Buck by showing the name of an actual film he had been in on the marquee.

the guy at the band auditions who tells him he's "too darn loud" is huey lewis, the person who performs the song IRL.

I'm Obsessed with classic movies, I think classic movies are a window to the past... & Back to the Future is my most favourite classic movie ever

When Marty tries out for the talent show and plays the Huey Lewis song, the judge that says he’s too loud, is Huey Lewis

39:38 One of the funny realizations in that moment is that after hitting the clocktower, this crazy storm... just stopped, suddenly 😂

One of my favorite things from the movie is that in the beginning they are at the Twin Pines Mall, then when Marty travels back to 1955 he runs over one of the pine trees. At the end, they are at Lone Pine Mall. The more times you watch this trilogy, the more you pick up on the subtleties.

When Marty gets to the mall the first time it says Twin Pine Mall. The second time it says Lone Pine Mall. This is because he hits and knocks down one of the two pine trees in Peabody’s front yard when he goes back to 1955. I only noticed this after seen show a half dozen times….

Ill never understand how people say Doc looks the same 55 Doc has Blond hair and 85 Doc has white hair aslo Christopher Lloyd in 85 is wearing old man makeup same goes for Crispin Glover (George ) Lea Thompson ( Lorraine) and Thomas F Wilson ( Biff )

This franchise is once in a million. A classic

Please post more often. Prioritize this channel over the other. You’re great and you have a really good thing going on here.

Interesting thing: Erik Stoltz played Marty at first. Spilberg and Cole wanted Michael but he was busy in that time at Family Ties. Erik ended being fired cos he didn't have the charisma, the comedy timing for that movie. So they did the impossible to make Michael accept the part. The rest you know. The best 80's movie ever.

BTTF is an American classic!

I love seeing people react to 80s movies like this as it reminds me of seeing them for the first time when they came out. It also helps remind us all that good old movies will find new audiences.

The funny thing is, the movie was almost never made. The writer and director had worked with Steven Spielberg on previous films, but they didn't want to become known as the guys who could only get work because they were buddies with Spielberg. So they tried shopping the script around to every Hollywood studio, but each one turned them down. Disney rejected the movie, specifically due to the plotline involving Lorraine unwittingly falling in love with her future son. Accident near-incest was clearly too far a bridge for squeaky-clean Disney. They finally approached Spielberg, whom had already loved the premise, and he produced it under his company Amblin Entertainment. All those other studios ended up missing out what would become the biggest hit of 1985. Also, the ending actually wasn't intended to be a setup for a sequel. Given how hard it was getting the first movie made, there were zero plans for a sequel. The ending with the DeLorean taking off and flying was merely meant to be a joke, like "There goes Doc and Marty on another crazy adventure through time!" The film's writer said that if a sequel had already been planned, he would have written it so that Jennifer didn't get in the DeLorean, as her presence became very problematic to the plot when he was eventually tasked with writing the next movie.

It's really delightful watching you enjoy these movies

One of my favorite gags is when George asks Lou for a milk.... chocolate; and then it immediately slides down the bar to him😂

So much mention about the male actors in these BTTF trilogy but little on the magnificence of Leah Thompson. Her performance was Iconic!!

Another little easter egg, the judge who said they were too loud was Huey Lewis He sand the theme for Back to the Future.

Actually, they did not film this movie with a sequel in mind. When it was originally released, like every film, they hoped for a box office success. However, they had no idea just how popular Marty and Doc and George and Loraine and Biff were going to be. It was only after the movie took off and became a huge hit that they started thinking of making another one. During the script-writing process, they found that it made more sense to make two other movies instead of one, turning the franchise into a trilogy. Back To The Future 2 and 3 were filmed simultaneously but released a year apart. Both are excellent movies that tell a cohesive and interesting story.
