Two down! One to go! This trilogy has been so fun and clever so far and we can’t wait to watch the final part!
Thank you all for the support!
The third one is my personal favorite. Lots of fun.
Awesome movie
Just subbed. You two are great reactors. Keep up the good work 😊👍
wow I've seen the movie many times and I never noticed the 3 year gap for the legal gambling age of 21.
The writer has said in the past that psycho rich biff was based on trump!
The problem is that you're looking back on 2015. When i saw this in the 80s, i saw a ton of things that didn't exist. Flat tvs that hang on the wall, smart house computers you talk to, finger print locks, camera drones, fast food kiosks, kids using wearable/ mobile devices at the table. They guessed so much of the world we live in
The only thing they couldn't predict was the internet
@@daustin8888
The scene of Marty's video call with Needles has personal information on the screen if the viewer looks closely. The movie-makers predicted the rise of social media in the early twenty-first century.
I did something fun with this film that can never be duplicated. On October 21st, 2015, I watched BTTF 2. I timed it so that the exact moment Doc, Marty, and Jennifer travel to the future (4:29pm) it would be the same exact time in real life. So, basically, when they arrive in October 21st, 2015 at 4:29pm, it was that exact date and time in real life. It was surreal.
Wow that is impressive!
@@TBRSchmitt Thanks. Also, thanks for the content. Love your videos.
I emailed a reminder to my work mates: "guys, we are in the future".
BttF II was my favorite movie growing up so I was always looking forward to that date and what the future would hold. If I could, I would've watched the movie on the date as well. Instead I was in the hospital getting diagnosed with MS. -_-
On October 21, 2015 they showed the trilogy in the movie theatres back to back to back. It was the best time ever. They had giveaways, showed bonus features between the films, like the trailer for Jaws 19. We were treated like royalty, it was great.
Not gonna even lie. I've been watching this movie since a kid and just now realized that Marty McFly's daughter was played by Michael J. Fox 😭
Me too
Sure was him ! A very good actor.
Me too! 🤣
They must have voiced him over or voice modulated him, never caught it as a kid either
WTF!!
Yep, that was indeed Elijah Wood at 6:21 when he really was a Hobbit.
It was his first movie role too
The one prediction about 2015 they almost got completely right was the Chicago Cubs winning the World Series. They were actually off by only one year (they won in 2016), which is an amazing prediction in itself since at the time this movie was made (1989), the Cubs had not won the World Series since 1908!
People always get fixated on the flying cars and the hoverboard not being real, but they got several other stuff right, including flat screens, caller ID, video calls, screens everywhere around the house and kids not letting go of their personal devices, voice activated home assistants (like Alexa or Siri), videogames where you don't need to use controls (those with cameras that register your body's movements), among a few other things. They weren't really _that_ far off except with the propulsion stuff that makes everything fight gravity a real possibility. They also didn't predict Princess Diana's death, obviously (newspaper scene).
@@Palmieres Predicting the near future is actually very easy. Especially if it's a span of 100 years or less. Ask someone to predict 1000 years or more and they'll get everything wrong.
As for the sporting part, sometimes life imitates art. Young fans of the film might have grown up wanting to win with the Cubs in 2015. They could have become baseball players and that prediction almost became reality.
@@SuperMuneera Not sure it'll matter much to them in 1000 years whether they were right or not!
The 1000 years thing reminds me of the cleverness of the show Futurama. Whenever they show you a good prediction in the 1000 years Fry is in stasis from 2000 to 3000, it generally happens closer to the year 3000. Whenever there is a terrible tragedy such as aliens invading Earth, generally closer to the year 2000...
So according to Futurama we have some bad times before they get better.
@@Palmieres They also got the existence of the internet right. When old Biff pays for his cab fare with his thumb print, there has to be some kind of internet connection in order to make the transaction work instantly.
And Nike invented the same trainers/sneakers from the film
"EAT LEAD, SLACKERS!!!!" is like the best line ever, what with the hysterics of it and all.
For the ones that don't know, the reason they changed the actress was because Claudia Wells mother was diagnosed with cancer, which made her put her acting career on hold.
And it was a big hiatus, from 86 to 2011.
5:16 30 years from now, it will be “Fast and Ferocious 20” and a hologram 83 year old Vin Diesel will drive a vehicle right at you shouting “Family!!!!”
Car still looks fake.
🤣🤣🤣
Movies will not even exist in 30 years. They will be some weird short form thing that evolved from memes.
But the rest sounds right. They already have "Family!" memes lol
Oh God No!
The whole "there's only one man who can help me?" sequence is one of my favourite moments in cinema.
It just so perfectly captures how fun these films are.
The fax machine from the Japanese boss in 2015 is actually one of THE MOST ACCURATE things in the whole movie. Anybody who has spent any time at all in Japan knows that Japanese STILL uses faxes to this very day.
Odd. They are all about efficiency
@@daustin8888 Fax machines are regularly used for more sensitive documents because they're more secure than other methods like email.
19:02 The shock on his face when Marty jumps, the acting here by Tom Wilson is PHENOMENAL
30+ years later and I still catch bits of the plot that I didn’t fully recognize in the 1000 times I’ve seen this movie lol. One of the greatest trilogies ever!
@@bcn1gh7h4wk oh wow. Yeah, because they debate on when they have to go back in order to erase the alternate timeline. It took Marty talking to rich Biff about the almanac to establish when old Biff gave it to young Biff. That’s crazy, I’ll have to watch again, but you may have just found a hole in the plot that I never thought existed. If the yellow one was the last time jump, Doc should’ve known when they needed to go back in the first place.
@@bcn1gh7h4wk ok I see what you’re saying now. Good point!
Robert Zemeckis later said that if he had any plans for a 2nd movie, he never would have had Jennifer get into the DeLorean at the end of the 1st movie.
Thomas F. Wilson as Biff is my favorite character in all these, his role in the 3rd is his best performance in my opinion. He is the complete opposite in real life such a nice guy, I've been watching these movies since I was 6 and still to this day I enjoy it just as much! Growing up in the 80s was such a great time I sure miss it!
He was a great actor who should have had a much better career but his part in these three films were a major part of what made them a success
Yeah he's an incredible actor! Flea also, plays a complete asshole in the movie but is like the nicest guy irl :D
Actually, the movie's portrayal of 2015 got quite a few things accurately: the fax machine (somewhat outdated now but weren't "new" in 2015), video chat, watching multiple channels, 3D movies, "endless" sequels (Jaws 19), keyless entry, they actually made those shoes with power laces for real and you could buy them for a brief time, probably a few other things I'm forgetting. And the rest are not exactly right, but are closely related. For instance, we don't have hover boards, but we have automated scooters, handle-less segues, Amazon is working on delivery by way of drone, we're currently working on self-driving cars (I imagine it won't be too long before we have self-walking dogs). Though, honestly, I don't think anyone back in the 80s really thought we'd have flying cars. That was the decade I grew up in, and while it was a fantasy, I think as a culture we instinctively knew that wasn't possible, not by 2015 anyway.
It's mostly the punchline to a joke setup. Originally, the makers of the film ended the first part with the flying car as a "wink" to the audience, and weren't planning any sequels. But because the audience loved it and were kinda forced to make a sequel (or two), they HAD to follow through with what they and done. Otherwise, they wouldn't have done it that way, maybe. They've even said as much - Jennifer wouldn't have gotten in the car if they knew they were making sequels, which is why she's not part of the plot too much.
Yep, about the only thing that hasn't come to fruition yet is flying cars.
Made me think of that old IBM commercial back in the early 2000s starring Avery Brooks (Cap. Sisko from Star Trek DS9).
He is walking on the Brooklyn bridge asking the question, "It is the year 2000! Where are my flying cars? Where? I was promised flying cars!"
And then he refers to the power of IBM computers and how flying cars are not needed to get work done.
To be fair, the movie didn't predict the shoes. The shoes were made because of the movie.
Don’t forget the sports angle. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series in 2016, which was one year off from this movie’s prediction. They hadn’t won the Series since 1908, longest drought in history. Also, they were accurate on a MLB team being renamed to Miami, who are now known as the Miami Marlins. Crazy accuracy there!
Edit: I first stated an MLB team “moved” to Miami, but realized they were already in Miami, just called the Florida Marlins and renamed to the Miami Marlins. It was just funny back then hearing a “Miami” team in MLB.
We’ve had flying car prototypes as early as the 1930s. They’ve been around. They’ve just never hit the mainstream. And honestly I can’t imagine allowing the average citizen to fly unless it’s far more automated. You thought automobile crashes were bad now? How about mid-air or into someone’s house?
@@DavidRomigJr Lol, same here. It was a nice dream but there are far too many safety and security concerns that come with being able to fly where ever you want. Even with automation.
Hard to believe this one was considered a failure when it was released. It’s aged incredibly well and has become a classic along with the trilogy as a whole.
It was deemed inferior but not a failure.
I like how you instantly recognised Flea.
Such a solid trilogy!
Yeah I’m sure the last one will be just as great if not better!
@@TBRSchmitt Well most critics at least, maybe not viewers consider part 2 the weakest of the trilogy, so if you go by that logic you should enjoy 3 even more than 2. I actually love all 3 movies equally since they are meant to be a complete story (even if they never originally planned on this being a trilogy) and as you say in the review, they intertwined the 1st movie so well in the 2nd and then the 3rd is like a complete 180 more or less setting wise. It's just great stuff. I still hold out hope we'll get a new Back to the Future at some point, but it'd have to have a new cast nowadays. Maybe Marty's kids could be the focus as main characters or something.
@@LordLOC No it goes 1 then 2 then 3 in order. 2 is better than 3 because it's more interesting. The future and all the gadgets explored and memes created as a result is more fun than the old west.
@@jsmithers. 1, 3, 2
@@zwil2213 No.
When BTTF came out, we didn't know there was going to be a sequel. In other words, we really weren't waiting 4 years. They did a good job of refreshing the memory by opening the film with the same closing scene, and rolled it back a bit.
We were waiting 3.5 years, though, because the VHS with "To Be Continued..." added to the end was released in May 1986 and Part II didn't come out until November 1989.
When this and III were produced - the camera work, using the same actor in the same scene, was really cutting edge stuff. Still holds up pretty well, I think.
One of the things I love about this film is that it works whether you assume Biff is dumb and only uses a date programmed into the DeLorean, and also works if Biff is smart enough to recognise that his life took a turn i 1955.
I think it is in BTTF 3 that Doc and Marty exchange their lines on one occasion. Marty says, "Great Scott!" and the Doc says, "This is heavy!".
GREAT video! I'm a massive BTTF fan and I was so happy seeing you experience the movies for the first time. A bit of information regarding the year 2015 in the movies, the writer and director stated that they were not trying to "predict" how 2015 would be. They knew they would be way off, but what they were trying to do was to present a "clean and hopeful" future (Although the DID get some things right! Like video calls, smart glasses, and the Cubs did win the World Series! Though that happened one year later, in 2016!). Back in the day, all movies about the future like Blade Runner always presented a dark, dirty, distopian future. With BTTF Part 2, they wanted to do the opposite, they wanted to show a brighter future, to try and be original about it instead of doing what everyone else was doing with the "future" at the time.
Marty's daughter was using VR glasses. So, they kinda got that right.
VR was already well known by the time of the movie, Sega announced VR glasses just 2 years after the movie(albeit they later cancelled the product). Nintendo released the 'Virtual Boy' in 1995, which was seemingly based on ideas from the 80s. Naturally they were pretty limited compared to modern iterations though, though a lot of that isn't just the VR display itself, but the computing required to generate the imagery.
Primitive versions have been around since the 50s and 60s.
At the time, holographs were expected to be big too. I can remember playing a 'holographic' video game in the early to mid 90s, albeit it was using a normal display with mirrors etc to cheat to create a similar effect, rather than a true holograph. It did look pretty cool though!
Also the drone taking pictures of the scene for the newspaper.
@@DoubleMonoLR Virtual Boy was hardly wearable. A better analogy to this might be Google Glass. She seems like she's watching something rather than playing something. Of course, the real reason she's wearing them is to make it easier to use a stand-in when another Fox character is in the scene.
In 1955 Morton Heilig first explained his vision of an apparatus capable of stimulating multiplex senses in the book “The Cinema of the Future“.
In 1962 he built a prototype named Sensorama.
1960 - The first VR Head Mounted Display.
One more Heilig’s substantial invention - virtual reality HMD Telesphere Mask. It is the headset which provided stereoscopic 3D and wide vision with stereo sound with no motion tracking.
1961 first motion tracking HMD - Headsight
Philco Corporation designed a new helmet that used head movements to gain access into an artificial environment that was enhanced with a tracking system.
1965 - Ivan Sutherland reported the “Ultimate Display” concept that could simulate reality to the point where nobody could feel the difference from actual reality.
1968 - first VR/AR HMD “Sword of Damocles”
Ivan Sutherland and Bob Sproull created the very first VR/AR head mounted display (Sword of Damocles) that was coupled to a computer TX-2.
1979-1982 - McDonnell Douglas vital HMD
Thomas Furness, VR/AR pioneer, had a background in creating visual displays ascending to 1966. He succeeded in fundraising for a prototype system to be fabricated at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. The Visually Coupled Airborne Systems Simulator (VCASS) was presented in 1982.
In 1981 Michael McGreevy (NASA’s Ames Research Center) began a research program in dimensional information transfer at NASA, accentuating the interpretation of 3-D displays. In 1984 to craft a resembling system for NASA called a virtual workstation. In the issue, they developed the Virtual Interface Environment Workstation (VIEW). It was the first system that combined computer graphics and video imaging, 3-D sound, voice recognition and synthesis, and an HMD. The system was supplemented by a data glove.
1987 : Eyephone HMD (Jaron Lanier, Visual Programming Lab)
Originally the term “virtual reality” was offered by Jaron Lanier in 1987 upon saturated research activity into this technological form.
Video phone calls, widescreen flat screens, drones, thumbprint identification, color newspapers, mobile electronic payment, robotic café employees, keyless entry, voice activated electronic devices. Apart from the obvious, I'd say the predictions in technology were pretty accurate.
The new Jennifer is Elizabeth Shue. She was one of the most popular actresses of the 80s and 90s. Her first film 'Adventures in Babysitting ' is a pop culture classic. She has a long list of great films including Cocktails with Tom Cruse and The Saint with Val Kilmer among many more.
Thomas Wilson, who plays Biff, is apparently a super nice guy in real life. He's also a very gifted artist. The beautiful thing about these movies is everything locks in.
GREAT reaction to my ultimate favourite trilogy ! When I first watched this in 1989 when it came out, I teared up at the beginning out of the excitement .
Once again, GREAT reaction. And you guys look so cute together !
I can imagine! We love the trilogy so far but still have one to watch! Awh thanks so much for the kind words and the support!
I felt the same, its so so so awesome to see someone enjoying my favourite movies too. And to see them get excited at the Nike's and Hoverboard, just wow. Back in the day it wasn't standard to set up for trilogies, so 4 years was quite a bit to wait for a 12 year old, and then to read a newspaper clipping that they were filming 2 more, Back to Back, I lost my mind lol.
@@TBRSchmitt Thank YOU for the reply ! You guys are my favourite « reactioner » !
@@maplejames6992 and I lost my mind too when I saw the trailer of BKTF Part 3 at the end of this one 😉
Fun fact: In 1955 when Biff and his grandma are yelling at each other. It was Biff who was doing the voice of his grandma...
20:11
Watched this in the theater when I was a kid. As soon as the credits were over, there was a trailer for BTTF 3 that was showed.
Yep, parts 2 and 3 were shot back to back.
Jennifer’s reaction to seeing her future self cracks me up every time 😂
Yeah, each of them was expecting the actress from the first movie.
They did such a crazy good job of including all the parts from the first movie into this one. This one is probably my favorite of the trilogy
29:05 Fun fact: One of the early ideas for the script didn't even involve a return to 1955. They initially wanted to go back to the 60s to explore what Marty's parents were like then. Of course, then they had the idea of revisiting the events of the first film, and the rest is history.
29:50 They actually pioneered a lot of the techniques that they used to fit the same actor in more than once. If I recall correctly they had to invent a special camera specifically for the dinner table scene in 2015 since Michael J Fox was playing 3 characters at once.
33:02 Another fun fact: At one point the producers made a joke about hoverboards being real and that they just hadn't hit the market yet. A lot of kids wrote letters to Mattel asking for hoverboards in the late 80s and early 90s.
the hoverboard thing, it had been the behind the scene doc that came out just after this one was out. the host made a comment that the boards were in development. it was supposed to be a joke, but a large number of fans thot it was true. after 3 came out there was another behind the scene doc released covering the whole trilogy. the host of that one actually apologized for the comment in the last video and said the boards didn't exist.
The only movie I can think of with a Chekhov's dust cover.
I'm reminded that USA Today PRINTED that cover on their newspaper on that date in 2015 as a souvenir issue.
Also, the robot waiters in Cafe 80s was inspired by the 80s “Max Headroom” show. I REALLY wish Universal Studios would do a future Hill Valley.
Fun fact. When they go back to 1955, there are 4 Deloreans there. The one Marty goes back to 1985 with, the one Biff traveled back with, the one Doc and Marty go back in, and the buried one.
I'm so happy the "double tie" fashion died out in 2015 🤣
This is one of my favourite trilogies of all time. I am so glad to see that you two are finishing out this set.
I think you're the only reactor to know who Flea is (at least that I've seen) and recognize him. That was quick on Samantha's part to hear and realize that quick clip mentioning that Lorraine's last name was McFly before she married Biff.
Red Hot Chili Peppers are my favorite band so I sure would hope I can recognize him lol!
Also, the clip says “in 1973”, and Marty is obviously not 12
I love how many classic films Flea's in. (Not to mention other people's albums he's played on as well)
Also realizing Marty's daughter is played by Michael J Fox. Some reactors don't even notice that! LOL
Flea (Douglas J Needles) is Marty's bully. They were friends as kids but Doug started bullying Marty in high school and dared him to steal a vacuum tube for his guitar amp from Doc's lab. Doc had spread rumors that he was a crazy person so people wouldn't snoop around his house. Marty broke in and Doc caught him, then he hired Marty as a lab assistant. Without Needles, and Marty being afraid of being called chicken, the movie wouldn't have happened. ( i got this info from the comics and the time machine haynes manual
The Cubs winning the world series happened a year later. The back to the future series is very cool.
The baseball strike of '94 delayed the Cubs win by one year!
And Miami is in MLB
@@rio_s550 Albeit called the 'Marlins,' not the 'Gators' or whatever (the team being founded 4 years after this movie).
@@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy Marty was perplexed about Miami because the Marlins weren’t created until 1993.
The Cubs getting kicked out of the playoffs on Back To The Future Day was the most Cubs thing to happen.
You two are perfect with the reaction videos.
Best sequel ever! Gah...I love everything about this film.
Better than TESB or TGF2 or T2 or Aliens?
@@nenabunena You can’t compare those to each other.
@@nenabunena Not better but on par with those as a sequel. You yourself couldn't even name the best sequel hence you used 4 examples.
I love your reactions and I have to say you two are just adorable together. You can just feel the love you guys have for one another through conversations body language. If I'm ever feeling a tad bit low your channel always puts a smile on my face. Keep up the great work and I cant wait to see part 3's reaction!
Oh, cool! It's TBR & Samantha day!
Things they got correct about 2015: Flat screen TVs, this was not around in the 80s and 90s. Multiple channels on the TV, in 1989 unless you had cable, you were limited to about 7 channels. Caller ID, this was not around in the 80s and early 90s. Videoconferencing/facetime, this was not around in the 80s and 90s, though it's been a staple of sci-fi for a long time. Some hints at social media, Needles and Marty's boss has "likes and dislikes" such as food and entertainment.
And don't forget fingerprint technology for every day use: security and payments. The use of what appears to be VR glasses, or Google glasses, by Marty's kids.
Oh, and also Miami didn't have a baseball team.
Hoverboards? Not that the things that exist do what the movie's do, but isn't the name inspired _by_ the movie?
And the 80s nostalgia
Flat screens were known about in the 80's. it was looked at as the future.
Drones 😁
30:45 1958 *is* actually an important date in this movie. It's when young Biff won his first million betting with the Almanac's help.
I love Doc's face when Marty asks him if he and Jennifer become assholes in the future. Like he has to double check himself before answering 😆
... which he didn't do at the end of the first one. Lorraine also didn't pause between the words 'interesting' and 'music' in the first one, either (George and Marty also wave to each other earlier this time, and there was also no applause for Marty when he left the stage, either).
Lol Actually Christopher Lloyd forgot his lines...
Same tunnel from “who framed roger rabbit”, “Wargames” and “throw mama from the train “
I have good memories from throw mama from the train. Need to rewatch that asap.
Buckaroo Banzai as well - the external part at least.
Talking about Roger Rabbit. The fellow who meets with Marty at the Cubs announcement, is the man who provides the voice for Roger Rabbit.
@@PatrickFoxGaming also asked older version the character who Biff goes to get his car back after hitting the manure truck.
“$300.00? That’s bull**it!”
“No, it was horse**it!”
Same town as Gremlins.
Considering this one was filmed in 1989 came out in 1990 in theaters They did a very good job I can't get over how much the flat screen T.V. on the wall looks like HD T.V.'S today. And Note : Michael J. Fox actually played Marty's Daughter, And Son.
I can't wait to see your reaction to the 3rd movie. I like how you identify possible situations and ways to resolve them and so forth. You will definitely love the next one.
While we don't wear them as goggles, the family dinner with everybody on their phones is probably the scene that rings most true in the movie's imagined future.
Lea Thompson is absolutely brilliant in the trilogy. Each character feels unique and distinct from the others. In the first one her 3 versions of Lorraine were identifiable by voice alone as are all the rest. She carries herself differently each time. The alcoholic mum in the first wasn't overplayed for laughs. It felt very real. This new one has a very almost pathetic way she gets around except when talking about George. I don't think she ever got or gets near enough credit for what she did with those characters.
This trilogy benefited from having an amazing cast that more or less remained intact it each film except for his girlfriend
Good call stopping it when you did! Also, great reaction... you guys are so fun to watch!
The second and third where filmed back to back, a first I think at that time. It was done because of the time taken to film just one and to keep the characters from looking aged.
Get ready for the best of the three!
Why did they wait 4 years after the overwhelming success of the first one?
@@ckobo84 I suppose because of all the sets that had to be constructed, filming, editing etc. They did it to reduce costs plus as you pointed out, four years between production, No.3 would have been roughly ten years later from the first. Trying to keep Marty looking young would have been difficult.
Superman: The Movie and Superman II were filmed back to back in the late '70s. A bit of trivia: actor Marc McClure is in both franchises -- he played Jimmy Olsen in Superman and Marty's brother, Dave McFly, in BTTF, so he was in two franchises that filmed sequels back to back! (His scene in BTTF II was cut; Marty runs into Dave in 1985A and discovers that he's essentially gone off the rails. The deleted scene can be seen in the special features!) I like to give some love to Marc since he is a friend of mine in real life. :)
@@ThePoorBoy Yes, your correct. I forgot about Superman.
The 4 years after BTTF1 was due to Zemeckis being busy w/ Who Framed Roger Rabbit. The sequels were filmed back-to-back b/c they wrote a gigantic script. Part 3 was originally just the last act of Part 2. Hence, it's more like a LOTR trilogy situation.
Once upon a time....I was coming home from my night shift job when I came upon an area of my neighborhood that was very brightly lit up , I soon discovered they were shooting a scene of BTTF 2. ( the Shotgun porch scene with Stricklin ) It was 1: 00 am and everybody watching left but me so I watched them do the scene about 5 or 6 times. Now when I watch that scene I can imagine my younger self there in that time fully taking it in. I may have been born to be a BTTF fan ....10/04/55 ( 10: 04 ). Great job on the reaction and especially the after talk.
The music in these films is so epic. It was meant for these movies. Nothing else would have fit. Best films ever made.
I **love** this movie, I always thought it was so clever how well it interacts with the first 'episode'.
I know I'm probably the only one but Back to the Future 2 is my favorite of the movies.✌
Also you should check out the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie "Last Action Hero". It's a good movie.👍
It's my favorite as well.
It was such a fun movie! Yeah that is definitely on our list of Arnold movies to watch!
My favorite too.
mine too
@@TBRSchmitt same director as Predator
You guys are an amazing couple and your energy and enthusiasm have been an excellent escape in these trying times. Thanks for your content and keep it coming.
I love Back to the Future part II for me this is the best sequel of the franchise very classic. Directed by Robert Zemeckis starring Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Elisabeth Shue and music score by Alan Silvestri. Thank you TBR great reaction😊👍👍
Thanks for the support!
@@TBRSchmitt You're welcome👍👍
Was so in love with this movie as a child
I wish I could go back to the future and like this video more than once.
Hahaha thanks bro!
or the past.
@@Grnademaster if one goes back to the future you could potentially be in the past
@@Grnademaster, or as the Doc said: "Whatever!" :-)
@@TheBushDownTheStreet You need multiple accounts, not time travel.
GOD, I love when people watch back to the future. Love the reaction, Best Trilogy Ever. Keep killing these reactions, hope you do part 3.
I recall that either Robert Zemeckis or one of the writers said, that by 1989, most time travel movies had always failed to predict what the future was like, so their version of 2015 was a "possibility" but they were really aiming more for a parody.
I can't wait for you guys to see Part 3! Also I've seen Last Action Hero recommended and that would be awesome! Definitely you have to embrace your inner 10-year-old to really appreciate it, but it's great!
crispen glover refused to play george again so they had him died. the upsidedown geoge was a different actor
But why?
@@dewjade4897 They didn't offer him enough money to return.
@@dewjade4897 I’m grossly oversimplifying it but from questioning the script to not being paid enough compared to the other actors, Crispin and Robert zemeckis didn’t see eye to eye. This all lead to him not returning as George. When they recasted him but still used his likeness in BTTF 2 without consulting Crispin it turned into a massive lawsuit.
He demanded a huge amount and then they fell out and they used his character and he tried to sue them
@@-M0LE He didn't just try to sue them, he sued them and won. The suit set a major legal precedent in Hollywood regarding actors' likenesses being used without their permission.
Wow. I've seen this movie a million or so times but only THIS time did I realize that the time on the time circuits display showed that the time the DeLorean had been was in 1955. Had Marty and Doc seen that they would've known someone else used their car and know exactly where to go without talking to alternate Biff in 1985. But of course once they travelled to 1985 that date was wiped out and replaced with 2015. This is probably something everyone else noticed decades ago but I'm a little slow... haha
I saw the first one in the theaters with my mom. The 4 years it took for part 2 to come out felt like a lifetime.
I had so many dreams about having a hover board after watching this as a kid. I even had a dream I'd worked out how to make one too! The secret to anti gravity? Bull's blood apparently! xD
Watching this reminded me; Technically when Old Biff steals the car in 2015 he would return to the future of the alternate timeline which could:
* Make reality change around Marty, Doc and Jenifer the moment Old Biff goes back
*Make them cease to exist
*Make them become stranded in that 2015...
*Create a paradox changing the future so Biff never comes back with the almanac in the 1st place!
(Ah time travel!)
A small breaking of their own movie rules, but hell who cares? I only spotted it a few years ago xD Amazing movie, my favourite of the 3 though the next one is still great too, can't wait!
I've seen these movies over a dozen times and I just now realized that the same Biff has now seen the flying DeLorean in each of the three time periods. 1955 at the end of the tunnel chase, 1985 at the beginning of this movie, and 2015 when he finally puts it all together.
Intresting fact: During the filming a stunt woman required reconstructive surgery after falling from a great height as part of the infamous hoverboard chase, which was actually kept in the movie.
So in a deleted scene, when Biff returned to 2015 they were going to make him disappear as he was erased from existence. There were theories that Lorraine shot him in 1996, and even though she did shoot him in 1986 he survived. In Back to the Future: Biff to the Future 6 It is revealed that he was the one shot and killed by his great-grandfather, Buford Tannen afger Doc Brown sent him to 1886.
Was waiting all day for thiss
Wait no longer! Thanks for the support!
Me too.. kept refreshing and thinking they postponed or forgot
I've been checking constantly since the first movie reaction was posted. Can't wait for the third one!
When Biff is bringing the Time Machine back to the future and he breaks his cane the reason why he looks in pain is because his future self is disappearing because he actually change the future. There is a deleted scene of a biff phasing out.
A question I’ve seen people ask is how did old man Biff even manage to get to his original 2015 timeline after giving the Almanac to his teenaged self which changed the timeline? Doc shortly after that scene told Marty they couldn’t return to 2015 and stop old man Biff from taking the Almanac and Delorean. So Biff going to 2015 should’ve been the version where he’s rich and powerful, leaving Doc and Marty in the original 2015 with no Delorean.
@@Evieteresa Yes! That's the exact question I asked someone else! It would be the alternate future that old Biff returns too.
@@shanehenry7699 I also saw the idea from others that Doc, Marty, and Jennifer leaving 1985 to go to 2015 meant they were missing all those 30 years, ergo Marty and Jennifer have no kids, ergo they arrive in yet another version of 2015 than Doc was planning on coming to. It’s all really fun and interesting to think about.
@@Evieteresa Oh my Lord! I never thought of that! That's crazy. You're very smart.
@@shanehenry7699 Thanks, but I can’t take credit. I just love reading the theories people have come up with for all three movies.
On Oct 21 2015 in real life - just between two true regular pieces - the German main newscast ("Tagesschau") reported "a flying DeLorean appearing out of the blue in the US-American town of Hill Valley, California". The newscaster Linda Zervakis put on her usual dead serious face and did not even flinch. Loved her and the Tagesschau team for that.
You guys are great...please don't wait too long for part 3
Your wife is so cute and sweet. Makes me happy you love doing this. My ex who just left me only watched TV but I love movies. I love part II the best. Have fun
I like to imagine that Doc and Marty unknowingly caused a butterfly effect that somehow resulted in the future 2015 we see in the film turning into our 2015. Take hoverboards, for example. They have it and so do we, but ours are less advanced and don't actually hover. Maybe they caused technological advancement to slow down, or be redirected into other things, like smartphones. lol
Except the "hoverboards" we have are only called that because of this film, so for that to be true, the film "Back to the Future" has to exist within the world it portrays. Allowing for Marty or Doc to actually watch their own lives in film form.
I love how they kind of anticipated that they could never get "the future" right, so they portrayed a version that was just a lot of fun.
The movie is FULL of fun easter eggs and references. One of them (Of MANY!) is that the Director for "Jaws 19" is Max Spielberg, the son of Steven Spielberg who was just a little kid back when the movie was filmed. Also in the Antique Store where Marty buys the Almanac, you can see several references to Steven Spielberg and Robert Zemeckis (The film's director) works, like a "Who Framed Roget Rabbit" doll, or a "Jaws" Nintendo game.
I just listened to y'all watch the first one lol
Started with Green Mile, man that movie gets me every time.

Imagine growing up with this movies, the quality, the magic, the feel. Todays movies do nothing for me.
Even the "average" film from the 60's to 90's was of a better quality than the average film now.
Nowadays "popcorn flick" is the most common type of film yet it's something despective. But back then, you could actually make a popcorn flick and it was something completely magical. There was a love for the craft of film making. Pure magic. The sets, the props, the character actors. Back to the Future is such an incredible trilogy, the first two at least are perfect films in my book and all they set out to do was entertain and make people dream.
It's a great trilogy. Crispin Glover, who played George McFly, was not re-hired for the sequels after complaining to the director and the writer about the first movie's script because he felt the time machine should not be used for financial gain. To solve their problem by using another actor, the director knew Crispin already had a Plaster of Paris face mold, so they could use aging makeup and prosthetics to make him look older than he actually was in 1985. Next, they used another actor with a face mask and scenes from the first movie, such as the Enchantment Under the Sea dance. As such, Crispin sued them for using that footage without his permission for the sequel. Also, the writer kept besmirching Crispin Glover with false accusations that he wanted more money than the other actors. As a result, Crispin went to his lawyer to send a cease and desist order to that writer to stop making those lies about him. Ultimately, Crispin won his case, making it illegal for the studios to use footage from previous movies and face molds using an actor's likeness without their permission. He has talked about this in several videos on UA-cam.
The actor who plays biff is actually a thoroughly nice guy
Agreed! I met him at a USO show once. He had a pretty good stand up routine too.
Everything in the future has many possibilities and many variables when something is altered from the past and you jump back from the future to the past whatever happened in that past will change the present. This is temporal theory 101 and you learn it very quickly in this movie.
Holy shit. I just realized who Biff's face reminded me of when he says, "What the hell is going on here...?" He looks like the masked Dorian from "The Mask" with Jim Carrey. I hope at least one person gets that reference...
Well, you already identified the reference.
Would you guess which person served as an inspiration from alternative 1985 Biff? yes, that person. It was even confirmed by the actor.
I wrote a theory a while back that the reason their 2015 was so different was because something Doc did (be it stealing nuclear material or something off screen) prevented Chernobyl, which prevented the public from souring on nuclear power. This in turn kept the cold war going and kept the governments funding nuclear research at a rapid rate, while simultaneously being careful with the free exchange of information (no public internet, or at least less), so rather than spend our time and efforts on screens, efficiency, and communication, we made retro-futurist ideas reality. Increased nuclear proliferation would also lead to more isolationism, which tends to keep countries locked into improving what they have. America would just become more America from the 80's on instead of globalizing, kind of trapping our culture in the 80s.
One thing no one ever mentions, that got the flat screen TVs on point! The one hanging on the wall in Martys house, dead on! lol
Also videoconferencing.
Nike has actually made those self-lacing trainers.
Yes indeed! They made them specially for Michael J. Fox because his Parkinson’s makes it extremely hard for him to tie his laces.
@@TheSpectacularSpiderPunk Cool. I did not know that. :)
And they gifted them to Michael on Back to the Future Day.
31:00 "There was a 1958"
Yes that was stated when Biff won his first horse race.
1. You recognized Elijah Wood.
2. You noticed Michael J Fox played his daughter.
3. You knew that was Flea.
4. Because of all that, I’m subscribing.
Missed Jennifer wasn’t Jennifer, and that Marty’s Dad was a different actor too, so hits and misses, there’s soooo much to take in though, it’s nuts.
I've seen this in a movie theather, at the end of the movie they showed us the trailer of part III, which was crazy to see and I think pretty unique...
You’ll love where they take the characters of Marty and Doc in Part III. I think the second is fine but I feel like Part III is miles above it.
Agreed.
Hi TBR Schmitt... This is one of my favorite trilogies and I am really happy that you both are enjoying this movie so much. I agree with your reactions and that you get how the three movies fit together so much. Thank you for your reactions and I hope you like the finally as much.
Great reaction. Jennifer is a young Stillwell from The Boys S1.👍
At least they correctly predicted Zoom work meetings.
Video conferencing was even a thing in 1985, of course super expansive.
In Demolition Man too.
There was a pair of those futuristic shoes sold recently, they sold for a few tens of thousands of dollars, and apparently the laces do tie themselves
The was a fun watch, I really appreciate how much you discuss the films afterward too!
I work in a public library, and we still do 3-5 faxes for our patrons every day. Faxing is still widely used for government, medical and legal communication.
