- Kristen and Hayley react to the Back to the Future, a classic sci-fi comedy film about time travel and adventure. The film follows Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox - Teen Wolf, The Secret of My Success, & The Frighteners), a teenager who accidentally travels back to 1955 in a DeLorean invented by his friend, the eccentric scientist Doc Brown, Christopher Lloyd (Who Framed Roger Rabbit, The Addams Family, & Star Trek III: The Search for Spock).
This film is directed by Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump, Cast Away, & The Polar Express) and also stars Lea Thompson (Some Kind of Wonderful, Caroline in the City, & Switched at Birth), Crispin Glover (Charlie’s Angels, Alice in Wonderland, & American Gods), and Thomas F. Wilson (The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, The Heat, & DC’s Legends of Tomorrow).

When Jennifer's Dad comes to pick her up from the clock tower at the beginning, Marty says he's going to call her. She stops and says "I'll be staying at my grandma's, let me give you the number".
I was screaming this when heard them ask why he didn’t have Jennifer’s number yet.
They were talking and didn’t hear that. Reacting does that where you have to talk and inevitably miss stuff
@@LaCheeserie yeah and I’ve seen the movie so many times I have it practically memorized.
Yeah, but the idea of needing multiple numbers for people for different places they may be is such an antiquated idea.
Came here to say exactly this! I mean, being able to personally remember gas prices under a dollar myself, those prices sound damn sexy to me right about now. 😅
But yeah, they missed that minor detail for sure. 🤪
"Ronald Reagan?? The ACTOR?!"
is one of my favorite line readings in any move,😂
It was also a favorite line of Ronald Reagan.
@@dalblack8712
Doc brown: Of course !!! Of course he has to be an actor !!! :) He's got to look good on television!!
in 1985 in the theater, when the audience heard that line they all laughed their ass off. Usually that joke goes right over the younger set's heads...
@@_construction_2024- 🤣
Yeah, right. And who’s vice president, Jerry Lewis?? 😂
This whole trilogy is actually one of the best movie trilogies ever. See all of it. You'll have so much fun. 😉
It gave me unrealistic expectations for movie sequels for a long time
Is it though?
Every single movie was amazing .
@@chand911, as a trilogy it definitely is. Everything connects even if it wasn't planned from the beginning.
@@chand911
Best of the best. Whole cult civilizations ! Have formed, who are dedicated, to this movie.
5:12 Jennifer said she’d be at her grandma’s for the weekend. The plot needed a reason for Marty to hold onto the flyer
Marty was such a nice name they called their first son Dave 😂
It would have been a funny gag if in the new timeline his parents called his older brother Marty and called him Dave.
@@SpectacleFilms1 I think it would have been funny if in the new future George was suspicious of Lorraine because their second son looked too much like that guy they met in high school...
@@Cheepchipsable tbh they met Marty for only a week, sometimes it's hard to even forget your close friends from high school when you grow old or you at least forget some features of their faces at least. Marty wasn't in their life for that long for them to remember his name clearly, they just remembered the impact he left behind. They practically saw Marty growing in the future so they got accustomed to him and never really thought he might be related to someone in the past. Lorraine simply liked the name Marty while George already had an ancestor with that name. I think George's parents are the ones who named Dave and their daughter, while on Marty's turn they wanted to name him the way they wanted.
@SpectacleFilms1 lmao this is similarly happening in totally killer, i won't spoil it but if u already watched this then u know what i mean
If you notice the mall was called the Twin Pines mall, but when Marty comes back to the future the sign says Lone Pine Mall because Marty killed one of the pine trees
Should have been Space Monster Mall
The farmer yelled “You killed a Pine!”
That's one of my favourite subtle background details. Another one of mine is the Surf Vietnam ad on the wall in BTTF2.
@@mattp6089 Of course. There was a butterfly effect in 1955 when Marty talked about "JFK Drive" which led to JFK not getting elected, and the Vietnam war was avoided.
@@aucarter You killed MY Pine!
The guy that plays Biff Tannen, Tom Wilson, is a super nice, ultra funny guy!! Does stand-up, is a great guitar player (incorporates it into his act), and is just a sheer delight!! In fact, he's always said this role was huge step outside his range, because when he was growing up, HE was the BULLIED!! Got picked on by everyone because when he was a kid he was scrawny, loved art and acting, and was generally thrown under the bus regularly!
I was on the Royal Caribbean ship, Voyager of the Seas, and he was one of the comedians. He was funny.
The brilliance of the movie is the first 25 minutes sets everything up with little clues that all pay off the rest of the movie (Even Jailbird Joey pays off in 1955). Nothing in the beginning is ignored later in the movie, and that’s why it’s so satisfying.
Chekhov’s flux capacitor.
And Chekhov's Toyota 4x4, and Chekhov's Twin Pines Mall sign, and Chekhov's Save the Clock Tower Flyer, and Chekhov's Birdwatching, and Chekhov's Mayor Goldie Wilson, and...
Even the car dealership that sells the truck is Statler Toyota in 1985, Statler Studebaker in 1955, Statler Pontiac Hover Conversions in 2015, and Honest Joe Statler Horse Sales in 1885.
Speaking of Joey, after the events of the first movie did Joey still end up being a convict or did his life change for the better?
@@TheYakusoku
What are you talking about? Chekov?
"You space b******, you killed my pine".
Thereby the mall sign changes from Twin Pines Mall to Lone Pine Mall
I've seen this movie since it came out on VHS. Hundreds of times and I never knew that is what he yelled. Still learning almost 40 years later.
Doc and Marty. One of the best movie friendships.
And extends to real life with Michael and Christopher.
Most reactors now find it creepy that a teenager is hanging out with an old man. We're doomed.
I get choked up when they hug before Marty gets in the Delorean to go back to 1985.
This cast still does reunions to this day
@@SamBorgmanits a modern thing. I used to hang out with my nephew because we play the same game but he's friends taught him to stay on people his age like age cism
Tom Wilson who plays Biff is sometimes overlooked due to the strong performances of the principles but he plays such a wonderful antagonist in all three films his contributions should be applauded.
He’s really a very anti-bully kind of guy, so he was able to channel all those things he didn’t like, and be very convincing with it.
He is a terrific guy too! Very funny. Lol
Well he is the villain and a bit one-note character in this film.
No one if going to say "Yay, Biff!"
Not much development in the second film, but at least he gets some different scenes.
BIff was also in Action Jackson with Apollo Creed
This didn't start Michael J. Fox's career, but it did start his movie career. As Alex P. Keaton, he was the breakout star on the TV prime time sitcom, Family Ties. He filmed Family Ties during the day, and BTTF at night. They wanted him for Marty originally, but the TV show wouldn't give him the time. After Eric Stoltz didn't work out (wasn't funny), they went begging to the producer of the show. He relented only if Michael wanted to do it, and with the understanding that the TV show came first because it was such a huge hit for the network.
I came here to write exactly that. Thank you!
By the way, I love me some Alex P Keaton. Miss Family Ties sooooo much!!
The Doc/Marty relationship is definitely one of the greatest things about this series. They are NEVER short with each other or in any ways critical of each other. Just fantastic. This is in my top 10 of all time. It is infinitely rewatchable and always a good time.
Well we don't really see then together that much, and since the film isn't about any kind of conflict between them, why would it be shown?
She gave him her Grandma's phone number! Remember, there were no cell phones so every house had a different number!
Every cellphone does too.
This movie is really good in itself, but the trilogy as a whole story is what makes it phenomenal. They keep interweaving scenes and references back into other parts of the other movies in a way that is brilliant.
A decent trilogy, but it kinda goes downhill from here.
@_MjG_ ur kidding right? 😆😆😆
@@crayzeewhorse Like your own comment, cute. I didn't say the other 2 were bad just not as good. Ratings on imdb share my opinion.
Docs expression when Marty's mothers comes to visit. His face is confusion and trying not to be disgusted 😅
He’s just like “Marty… WHAT THE F*#%!”
@@ATrixsterrand Marty is like “DOC PLEASE HELP ME 😱
I don't think Doc was disgusted, just scared they would be "found out". Doc realised the importance of messing up the time line and was scared of erasing parts of history.
I liked original George's expression at the table when Lorraine asks George what he was doing before getting hit by the car..."Bird watching?.."
Of course you don't understand until later in the film.
I've watched this movie more times than I can count. It's my absolute favorite film. The chemistry between Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox as Doc and Marty is so good, and the story is perfect. I will never get tired of watching Back to the Future.
With the amount of stuff y'all have never seen, I wonder if 'Groundhog Day' (1993) would make for another first-time watch? Iconic movie. 🧡
It's Groundhog Day. A second-time or even third-time watch is just as good.
@@jamesjones7526Well, we’re watching Groundhog Day … again.
Eric Stoltz was the original actor to portray Marty McFly, but after a few weeks of filming, the Director did not think it was working, so they hired Michael J. Fox to replace him in the lead role. They reshot the movie with Michael J. Fox and the rest is history.
Also, Michael J. Fox was simultaneously filming Family Ties, so he filmed that in day time and Back to the Future at Nights and weekends.
They had wanted to cast Michael J Fox all along, but they didn’t think they would be able to get things worked out with the _Family Ties_ schedule. Then they finally got it worked out. Probably best for Eric Stoltz’s health, since Tom Wilson had run out of patience with him (which, from what I understand, takes a lot to run out).
I still find it funny that Lance the drug dealer was officially almost Marty McFly. 😄
Wasn't the movie rewritten or something for mjf? Or was stoltz just playing the same role just somewhat darker? I've seen so much on this trilogy and can't keep up with all of it lol
I don’t think anything was rewritten. It is just that Stoltz did not have the comedic and light appeal that MJF exuded.
Technically, Eric Stoltz is still in the movie, since a few shots where you don't fully see Marty were reused.
Michael J Fox was always the first choice, but he was tied up doing the tv sitcom, ‘Family Ties’, and wasn’t going to be available. When Eric Stoltz didn’t work out, they had to beg and plead the show to let Michael do the film; and in the end they had to agree to work around the show’s schedule, and Michael J had to agree to to both, running on next to no sleep.
What's nice is in both 1955 and 1985 phone books still existed. If someone from 2024 when back to 1955, they wouldn't know how to use it.
Fun fact. The dude that said they were 'too darn loud' in the audition scene. That was Huey Luis and *he **_wrote_* the song they were playing. He's actually a pretty famous rock and roll artist and played with the group, 'Huey Luis And The News.'
Met him and the the band in 1986, got back stage passes and hade a talk for 5 minutes after the show
Michael J Fox was already doing the sitcom series FAMILY TIES when he was offered this role in Back to the Future. Michael was still young and full of energy and was able to juggle both this movie and his TV show on next to no sleep. Today, he has Parkinson disease. Every simple moment is a struggle. His youthful career inspired many of us today. -OG
This movie is taught in film school as an example of an absolutely perfect movie script. This is one of the few series where watching the sequels is totally worth it
especially the second act. Great lessons on how to make viewers invest in the story.
and do the follow ups get taught in school as perfect example of how to screw up a good movie
Absolutely perfect? They really should have researched the time frame. They made at least 2 historical errors. First, Tab already existed, and second, they have Ronald Reagan married to the wrong woman.
@@kevinkunkel9444TaB was not introduced until 1963, seven years and a bit after the 1955 scenes. Jane Wyman was Reagan’s first wife, long before he met Nancy.
I smell internet hyperbole 😅. It is one of the best screen plays but...no it's not perfect. There are a lot of plot holes in it. But you know when it's not perfect and people don't care you have something special...and special it certainly is.
By the time Michael J. Fox was cast as Marty, he was already an Emmy Award-winning sitcom star and breakout character of the 80s sitcom, Family Ties. He was actually working on one of the seasons of Family Ties during the day, and filming the movie at night and on weekends. But, he wasn't the first actor cast as Marty...Eric Stoltz (Some Kind of Wonderful, Pulp Fiction) was. He was fired a short time after filming began.
The teacher who stopped Marty and his band at the audition was Huey Lewis, the singer of The Power of Love.
The film seems to end on a cliffhanger for a sequel...and they NEVER planned for the film to have a sequel. The movie was such a monster hit that a couple of years later they started working on it, then ended up with two, and they were filmed back-to-back and released about a year apart. It is one of the greatest trilogies ever made!
A couple of years ago, Bob Gale (co-screenwriter) and Alan Silvestri teamed up for a project that is now at the Winder Garden Theater in New York. Back to the Future, The Musical uses many of the songs in the movie, several pieces of the film score, and new songs co-written by Gale and Silvestri to tell the story in a whole new way. It was a huge hit in London, and it's a hit here.
Whoa, whoa, you said at the end this was the first role that started Michael J. Fox's career, but far from it. He had been in some movies in the late 70's and early 80's and then was a star of the VERY popular sitcom Family Ties, which started in 1982. So he was already very famous when he was cast in this. And he was actually having to split his time filming Family Ties and Back to the Future at the same time.
Another interesting detail I don't see a lot of people comment on is that it's not just George being a peeping Tom. Did you notice what the dad said? "ANOTHER one of these damn kids jumped in front of my car." This had been happening often with several different guys. It makes sense now we find out how aggressive and forward Lorraine is. She's an exhibitionist who was getting some thrills from showing off in front of the open window.
Glad I didn't have to scroll far to find a Family Ties mention.
Holy sh!t I've seen this movie probably a hundred times and watched many reviews and breakdowns and I've never thought about that line (another one of those kids) . Very nice catch!
The movies came after BTTF, the tv show before.
It just makes me wonder how much further MJF would've gone if he had been able to stay healthy. But he has played the cards he's been dealt very well.
It always aggravates me when these people speak on details cluelessly (like thinking this is Michael J. Fox's first role or big role) when they can be learned so easily. Heck, it makes me wonder how they even know Michael J. Fox if they were not familiar with these movies or "Family Ties." His other films and TV series are likely under their radar, too.
I saw this in the theater when I was 12 and was blown away. Still love it.
The writers have explained that Marty was getting into mischief and broke into Doc's lab. Doc caught him but rather than calling the cops he gave him a job taking care of the dog and helping out around the lab.
Two of Biff’s high school buddies are Billy Zane from Titanic and Casey Siemaszko from Young Guns.
Also, Flea from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
@@robertcringle4865 Flea wasn't in the first one he was in the second and third.
Jason Scott Lee who played Bruce Lee was in the second
OMG I never noticed that was Billy Zane
In real life, the DeLorean car was known for having a lot of mechanical flaws and not being reliable. In the movie, the running joke is that it keeps breaking down.
One of my favorite movies of all time, not just from the eighties, just movie in general
Great reaction ladies! This is, without a doubt, my #1 all-time movie! First saw it for my 7th birthday in 1985 - parents 'rented' the VHS tape AND the player (we didn't have a VCR yet - they were expensive!) and I think I watched it 5 times before the rental was done! The nostalgia for my parents was real (they were teenagers in the 50's - so they both really appreciated the trip down memory lane)
The acting, dialogue, comedy, action, romance (NOT the mom-son thing), drama, effects AND the soundtrack & score were spectacular - and IMHO perfect!
To this day - I can watch this at any moment, and still enjoy it like day one. My family loves it too, so it's always a great group watch.
The whole trilogy is one of the best of all-time.
Cheers!
I'm surprised I don't hear more people recognizing the source of the "I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet......but your kids are gonna love it" meme.
I was going into highschool grade 9 when this movie was released that year but missed watching it in theaters. When it finally came out on VHS, I watched it 3 or 4 times consecutively that day. I love this movie.
All 3 movies.. are like 1 huge story! Perfect Trilogy!!
He didn't have Jennifer's grandmother's phone number. She said, I'll be at my grandma's. Everything was landlines back then. Nobody had cell phones.
I was like the kids in Stranger Things, many of us had radios, some Vietnam era we picked up from surplus stores. We were probably the most connected kids in southern Ohio.
@@c1ph3rpunkBack then you could get all sorts of cool stuff at the local surplus store.
@@c1ph3rpunk What was the range on those things?
In the beginning, when Marty's band is auditioning, they are playing a Huey Lewis and the News song, the teacher that tells them that they are too darn loud is Huey himself. Another thing, the mall at the beginning is called the Twin Pine Mall, when Marty goes back to 55 he accidentally kills a pine tree, when he gets back to 85, the mall is now known as Lone Pine Mall. Michael J. Fox's first big role was as Alex P. Keaton on Family Ties, and before that he had a role on a Canadian sitcom called Leo and Me.
I knew this comment was coming. Like clockwork
@@LaCheeserie A bunch of bots or weirdos.
3:25 "So who is he to him?"
This is the exact question which led to the creation of Rick and Morty (originally called Doc and Marty).
Why do people lack imagination or insight?
Most likely Marty did odd jobs for Doc outside of school hours.
If how they were related was relevant it would be in the film.
There is really no mention of them "hanging out" together or doing things socially.
The actor portraying Marvin Berry the band leader is supposed to be the cousin of Chuck Berry, the real singer of Johnny B Good and that the joke is that he only made this hit because he heard Marty play it over the phone when Marvin called him
And kept playing it live from 1955 to 2015
What's crazy is when Marvin said "Well listen to this."
It just goes into the Guitar Solo, so Chuck Has no idea what even the Lyrics are, all he hears is just Marty's Guitar going crazy and not the actual song. 😂😂
5:05: Slight correction. Jennifer gave Marty her grandmother's phone number, where she was going to be visiting.
I find it amusing there's people just watching this for the first time
Same here lol
Exactly this is a Classic!
Lol I know right 😆😅🤣😂
It’s very unlikely
Yeah. It’s kind of on TBS and other channels every day.
Guys! The guy with the megaphone who said the Pinheads were too darn loud was Huey Lewis. Huey and his band toured the world playing music too darn loud. The music playing when Marty was hitching rides on his skateboard, the music playing on the alarm clock that woke up Marty, and the music the Pinheads played at the audition was from "Huey Lewis and the News." It was an inside joke from the director.
6:14 - Notice, George is writing with his right hand.
14:17 - Eating with right hand.
23:50, 25:48 - Uses right hand.
26:00 - PUNCH!
No obvious examples in the video, but the theory is that George is actually left-handed, and was trained out of it as a child (which wasn't uncommon in the 40s).
Did new George's confidence and future success come from standing up to Biff, or accepting his truly dominant hand (or both)?
Biff was holding his right hand, thats all
@@PaulWinkle - Which forced him to use his left and realize it was his dominant hand.
@@jowbloe3673whatever floats your boat
Sinister theory
Who's theory? Biff was holding his right hand. He wasn't going to use his right hand no matter which side is dominant.
I hope you guys know that watching the rest of the trilogy is required, especially because it tells one big, continuous story. But don’t wait too long between movies, part of their charm is all the callbacks and Easter eggs between the 3 films. Also, there’s a full-on trailer for part 3 at the very end of part 2, so if you don’t like spoilers, please stop the video right as the words “to be concluded” appear on the screen. Looking forward to the rest, this truly is one of the best, most consistent trilogies!
Ya, but the next two were soooo bad. I hate to say it since I loved the first one. The next two are just copies of the first except much worse acted. They literally duplicated scenes frame by frame just with either the future or past elements to it. I mean there are callbacks, but these were just awfully done. Again, pains me to say it since the first one is one of my all time favs.
@@justaguydoinstuff Nah, they're awesome. Clearly you didn't pay attention to them.
@@tfpp1 lol, ok...I clearly did which is why I don't like them. They could've been so much better...
Marty had his girlfriend's phone number. She explicitly said she was going to be at her Grandmother's house, and that's why she wrote that number. Gotta pay attention. You also COMPLETELY missed the last tagline of the movie which was one of the coolest movie lines ever "Where we're going, we don't need roads".
Yeah. Sadly, at 12 mins I'm thinking of finding another reaction to this fab movie. I love an attentive reactor..
Every time I see this movie i find a new Easter Egg. It is a real intricate script with tons of layers.
How about 1955 diner owner Lou (played by veteran character actor Norman Alden) being the owner of 1985's Lou's Aerobic Fitness Center (see 4:28) in the same building?
There is so many little things people never notice. Like the name of the mall changes when he comes back. Or the Easter eggs in the second one foreshadowing characters and events in the 3rd.
5:15 Jennifer was staying at her grandmother’s house. So she was giving Marty the number there. Remember, this was long before cell phones and each house has its own number. Telephone numbers were associated with a location, not a person.
Younger viewers would have no idea, but 80% of the people who saw this in the theater recognized the judge ("I'm sorry, you're just too darn loud") was the guy who wrote and sang the theme song, which was basically what Marty and the Pinheads were playing.
Maybe 80% of the Americans who saw it on theater.
@@rogeriopenna9014And you didn’t have to be an American to know who Huey Lewis.
@@Ryan_Christopher I don´t think he was that famous outside the US and maybe a few other countries.
From what I remember, Michael J Fox was their first choice for the film, but because of scheduling issues due to him being on the show, Family Ties, they instead hired Eric Stoltze. But after starting to shoot the movie, they decided they didn't really like how it was turning out. So they fired Eric, and worked out the scheduling with Michael....
The scheduling was only part of the reason the producers of "Family Ties" did not let MJF off the show. Meredith Baxter (Birney) had a baby and was on maternity leave. MJF was being used more to cover for her absence, since he was a rising TV star. By the time Eric Stoltz was fired, Meredith returned from maternity leave. The film producers begged the TV producers for MJF. The TV show approved this on the condition that if any scheduling conflicts arise, the TV schedule wins.
Fox was also pretty well known because of 'Family Ties', so this movie did not start his career.
I remember hearing that asa kid, I was a huge family ties fan. I thought, wow, they must really want him, if they worked such a thing for him.
Interesting that Eric Stoltz was originally going to play Marty and Lorraine was going to have the hots for him, then Stoltz and Lea Thompson were a thing in Some Kind of Wonderful! lol
Lorain was a very funny character... because she said at the start she never chased a boy or parked with a boy. We then found out she undressed infront of an open window to attract boys ... undressed Marty when he was passed out... and then chased him and leaped at him in a car. 😅
in a rejected script, George finally figured out who Marty is over the years thanks to Darth Vader, Vulcan and 80s rock music, he realised that 'Calvin' was actually his son and he bought him the pick up as a thank you for bringing him and Lorraine together. this is reinforced in the Game from a few years ago
I love seeing people discover this film. They always seem surprised at how great it is. The hype is real.
In an earlier draft, Marty and Doc have a side business selling bootleg movies. This is why he has such a nice camcorder. This is why they're friends. Obviously the movie studio wasn't thrilled about glorifying movie piracy so that angle was cut.
"Is he gonna call his parents...or call his girlfriend?" His girlfriend who hasn't even been born yet? LOL
I mean, it's silly, but also a common trope in time travel stories: the traveller doesn't believe it has travelled through time and tries to contact relatives or friends, only to find they don't exist yet (and makes several attemtps before accepting they don't exist in the current "present").
The film, cleverly, cuts that stereotype short in two ways: first, the only attempt Marty makes shows his neighborhood hasn't even been built (and that's all he needs to come to terms with his situation; he even makes the clever choice that the only person he needs to find and convince is Doc Brown); and he bumps into his father by accident (rather than making an effort of reaching someone familiar; it's just Marty''s luck).
1. Cranky principal Strickland/James Tolkan also played the ship's squadron leader in "Top Gun".
2. The teacher that tells Marty, "I'm afraid you're just too darn loud" is Huey Lewis himself. (Heart of rock and roll)
3. Eric Stoltz was first cast as Marty, but he didn't play well with others and was fired. Some of his long shots are still in the movie.
4. The flammable material set on fire with the model exercise had to have been put there on purpose. (movie magic)
5. It's always fun to see how people react to the Marty and his mom car scene. 🤣
6. George McFly/Crispin Glover didn't like that the story ended with the family being prosperous.
7. Twin Pines Mall becomes Lone Pine Mall when Marty takes one out when he goes back to 1955.
8. IMVHO part II is the best of the trifecta.
9. If you want a first time/share, and haven't already, of an OUTSTANDING movie where Christopher Lloyd plays the heavy you must do "Who Framed Roger Rabbit".
What ending did Crispin want?
Since I first saw this as a kid, it took awhile before I truly realized what Biff was trying to do in the car scene. Even Marty and his mom went over my head first several viewings. Seen this film a million times at this point
He was WOKE. Hey dude, you're the actor, not the writer. Get over yourself.@@LaCheeserie
@@williamjones6031 Does not answer my question and using woke, I’m sure in the co-op way, so laters mate
When I was in high school I was in a play called "Skin of our teeth" by Noel Coward. One of the actors didn't like his lines. Out teacher/director told him, "You can't re-write Shakespear and you can't re-write Coward.@@LaCheeserieThe actor is to act, not change the story.
@@williamjones6031 I understand that, just curious what his suggestion was. And also, many directors and writers allow ad libs and modify scripts due to suggestions.
I don't think Doc gets enough credit for not only influencing Marty, but also George's life as Marty helps turn him into a more confident person. He passed on Doc's saying "if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything", which George repeats at the end of the movie.
5:10 - "Wait, he didn't have her phone number?"
4:54 - "I'll be at my Grandma's."
Um . . .
Between horror movies and little things like this, cell phone generations will be all sorts of confused watching any old movies.
@@Stevarooni In all fairness, they caught a ton of shit that other reactors miss, so one small detail is hardly damning.
@@Krucifus I thought they did pretty well with catching details mostly. No shade thrown. Just that cell phone generations are going to have some things explained to them.
No matter how many times i watch this, it's still suspenseful
thank you for not over reacting to the whole situation.
absolutely, but they do at times struggle to accept this movie was from 1985 and not put modern thoughts and ideas to the script, that is the most annoying thing reactors do in my opinion. Also no patience to wait for the plot to evolve and explain itself. Too many need to know right away everything happening and/or make constant guesses as to the direction of the movie (which are usually wrong) sorry a bit of a rant here! LOL
A quarter back in 1985 has the buying power of 72 cents today (inflation adjustment).
I like how both of you by the end of the video started applying Back to the Future logic to the events that lead to this reaction.
Fun Fact: @3:59, the man with the megaphone is actually Huey Lewis (from the Band Huey Lewis and the News) who’s band made was very popular in the 80s and created 2 smash hits (Back in Time & Power of Love) for this movie including the song (metal version of Power of Love) Marty and his band is played for the audition.
Actor Crispin Glover (George McFly) is the son of Bruce Glover who played one of the villains in the James Bond movie Diamonds Are Forever. Also, Crispin is about 3 years younger than his "son," Michael J. Fox!
29:52 "But he's already there..."
The Tale of Two Marty's- This is hard to spot, but once you do you won't be able to unsee it- a "second Marty" WAS there the first time Doc gets shot in the film.
If you watch closely when Doc throws his pistol away ( 11:37 in this video) in the background there is a rectangular white sign between Doc and the van. As the pistol flies through the air, a shadow can be seen running from right to left across the sign.
That's "Second Marty" back from 1955 witnessing Doc getting shot, and his own self driving off in the DeLorean.
Dont see nothing and however this couldn't be. In the first place it was the "twin pine mall"-Universe afterwards it turned into the "lone pine mall"-Universe. Why should there be 2 Martys in the "twin-pine-Mall"-Universe?
@@PaulWinkle It not only could be, it was. We know the second Marty was there, whether we see him in the beginning or not.
That's not how time travel works in this universe, that version of doc did die because Marty hasn't gone back in time yet
But there couldn't be a second Marty there at that time, because this is the first instance of the loop. If there was a second Marty there, that would mean Lorraine's story about meeting George would be different. She remembers it as George being hit by her dad's car, not some guy named Calvin and she gets rescued by George later. The only explanation for that would be she's lying and made up the story, but wouldn't George have corrected her when she told that story at some point? Because the daughter knows about it, so obviously it wasn't the first time she's mentioned it. Not to mention that would mean that George had stood up to Biff in the past and wouldn't have been the pushover he was at the beginning.
Also, that's not the direction future Marty comes from anyway. He comes from the opposite direction, down the hill from the entrance to the parking lot.
But that would mean that that Marty (the one you say was running in the background) should have been there in 1955 when the Marty in the foreground arrives
The judge at the dance band auditions who stood up and said Marty's band was too darn loud was Huey Lewis. The piece that Marty and the band were playing was some rendition of "The Power of Love, one of the pieces that Lewis and his band, Huey Lewis and the News, played on the soundtrack of this film. The other piece on the soundtrack was Back in Time.
So happy you guys love and appreciate this classic, this was good stuff!!! What nobody notices is the guy that turns down Marty's band is Huey Lewis, the guy singing the main theme!!!
Try not to criticise the movie until you understand the story it’s trying to tell. And don’t talk over the dialogue. You’ll struggle to “get it” if you don’t listen.
U mad?
How is this even possible that this is your first watch of this film? Lovely reaction glad you've joined the club x
The Judge that says I'm afraid you're too loud, is Huey Lewis. They were playing his music.
Before Marty goes back, its the twin pines mall. Marty hits a pine in 1955. It is the lone pine mall when he goes back.
They did a great job with those little details
Lots of people never realized that. XD
And if you go back to that mall in Puente Hills CA (about 20+ miles east of LA) that sign is on display though the mall is now mostly empty😕
At this time Michael J. Fox was a massive hit on tv in a show that was a hit “Family Ties”. The makers of Back to the Future tried to hire him the first time around but the producers of “Family Ties” refused to let him out of his show obligations.
So Back to the Future had to move forward and be cast by another. After six week Zemeckis knew the comedy wasn’t hitting the way he knew MJF would play it. So he doubled back to the producers of Family Ties, Gary David Goldberg. He bagged Gary and finally MJF found out they wanted him originally for this movie and this time the producer would allow him to do it but ONLY if he didn’t let it affect his TV show obligations. During the days he’d work on Family Ties and nights he’d be filming Back to the Future.
He’d have a driver take him from the tv studio to the movie studios to work nights.
He says that sometimes he’d be on one set or the other playing the wrong character.
5:18 at grandma's house, number. Guy with megaphone was Huey Lewis(cameo), the singer of the song they were playing.
Remember all the small details! So fun, you'll see!
Also thanks for sharing so much! Glad you aren't spoiled (as you hear iconic lines for the first time- "They are not ready for this (music)..")
I met Christopher Lloyd and Thomas Wilson at comic con. Doc hanging on the clock is a reference to a Charlie Chaplain movie.
Marty's band was playing "The Power Of Love" by Huey Lewis and The News and the guy who says "You're too darn loud" on the bull horn is Huey Lewis.
"He didn't have her number?"
You guys were talking over Jennifer telling him she'd be at her grandmothers. lol A.D.D. strikes at will.
The teacher telling him that he's too loud while playing a, "Power of Love" from Huey Lewis and the News *was* Huey Lewis :)
The guy telling the band “You’re just too loud” at the audition is Huey Lewis, the writer of “Power Of Love”.
In 1985 no one carried cell phones (which I seem to recall had only recently been invented, were the size of bricks, only made calls -- there was no Internet -- and cost hundreds of dollars each).Thus, landlines including payphones (and knowing whatever number someone was at) were common in communication. "I'll give you the number" was routine before everyone carried a phone number with them.
I was about 29 years old when I first saw this movie, in a movie theater, the year it was released. I was born the year after the one that Marty travels back to. Both of these guys were cast members in sitcoms in the 1980s -- Michael J. Fox in "Family Ties" (which he was still in during filming of "BTF," which made for a hectic work schedule) and Christopher Lloyd in "Taxi." (You could easily look these up if you haven't already.)
The 1989 sequel in which they go to 2015 turned out to be inaccurate about a lot of 2015. We still don't have flying cars.
We had the internet in 1985 (it just wasn't for public use until the 90s)
3:59 that Huey Louis cameo 🤣
The 60s had an adult cartoon show called Rocky and Bulwinkle. One of the segments was Mr. Peabody and Sherman. Peabody had a Wayback Machine in which he and Sherman traveled back in time. Old Man Peabody was a reference to that.
In the beginning when he was playing "Power Of Love", the guy that said it was too darn loud was Huey Lewis. The singer of Power of Love
The legs you see walking in Doc’s lab isn’t Michael J Fox’s legs. They didn’t have him signed yet so they just had a crew member do it. It switches to Fox when he’s in the rubble. Michael J Fox was doing Family Ties at the time and they couldn’t get him for the movie. The producers told them to start with another actor (Eric Stoltz) and if Fox became available then they’d pay for the reshoots. They were able to work a deal with Fox and and Family Ties that Fox would record night scenes for the movie during the week and on weekends they’d do day shots. So after Fox was done on the set of Family Ties for the day he’d jump in the back of a station wagon and nap as he was driven to the movie set to shoot night scenes. When he was done filming his movie scenes (around 2:30am) he’d hop back in the car and get taken home (sometimes he’d get carried into bed) sleep for about 5 hours and start the filming cycle all over again. 4:00 that’s Huey Lewis from Huey Lewis & the News who sang the song that Marty was playing just then. 12:54 you’ll see later what changes because he ran over one of the pine trees. 16:54 what’s funny is the thing on his head might’ve actually worked cause he said he’d come from a distance (1985). 20:00 many Star Wars and Star Trek fans joined together screaming at the crossover. 24:35 so his mom wasn’t the pure soul she said she was. It’s funny thinking what was going on in his head seeing his mom like this. 25:32 peckerwood is a derogatory word meaning a poor white person. 30:35 notice the name change of the mall? It’s no longer Twin Pine mall due to him taking out the pine tree back in 1955. The “to be continued” at the end of the movie was added to the home release. It wasn’t in the theatrical release. It was a great way to announce that they were doing another one.
Did you notice when Marty's band was trying out after school, they played a song by Huey Lewis and The News? And the person with the megaphone who told him the band was just too darned loud was Huey Lewis.
I just came to make that same observation. From what I understand, Huey Lewis was told the same thing at an audition.
I doubt they know who Huey Lewis is.
To be fair if they named an artist of the past decade I’d likely have no clue. I gave up on music when MCR called it quits.
Meet huey years ago. Was so nice
They wouldn't because they obviously don't know who Huey Lewis is. If they did, they would have said something about it during the scene itself. It would help if you tried thinking sometimes instead of trying to act smart.
@@c1ph3rpunk who?
FYI: the reason Doc looks somber when he drops Marty home is because he saw the time display and knew Marty had returned early, thus would be trapped forever in a timeloop.
3:25 Basically Marty snuck into the doc's place for some reason when he was like 13 and became fascinated by all his electronics and experiments. He started hanging around Doc because he liked the whole inventing thing and they became friends. Obviously I'm grossly simplifying. They had a cartoon series for a while and I think comic books too.
FYI … at the beginning.. the band that Marty plays in ..the judge that tell Marty their to loud …,is Huey Lewis from Huey Lewis and the news the song that they play is the power of love… the song is also played in the movie … Huey Lewis and the news were very popular in the 80’s the power of love was the song
What a great movie.... CLASSIC of all times. Great reaction! i see you in the part2!
3:57 The guy with the mega phone that says the band is "To Darn Loud!" That is Hewy Lewis from the band Hewy Lewis and the News. That is the band that actually plays that song. POWER OF LOVE.
Great react! Welcome aboard ....This is the 80's perfect trilogy!!!!
The producers were not able to obtain permission from Van Halen to play their music in the Dath Vader/planet Vulcan scene. However, they were able to convince Eddie Van Halen to record a few riffs. If you look at the cassette tape, the label reads Edward Van Halen.
The talent judge that says they are too darn loud is Huey Lewis of Huey Lewis and the News. That's the band that had a big hit with the song Marty's band was playing. The Power of Love.
Ironically funny 😆
We need this comment in all BttF reactions
Yeah, and they were definitely no slouches when it came to hits in their day.
On the US Billboard charts…
Hot 100: 12 top ten singles, 3 of which hit number 1. 2 number 1 albums.
Rock: 11 top ten singles, 3 of which hit number 1 (and some of those weren’t even the same songs as the Hot 100 ones).
But _The Power of Love_ was truly the really big one across the board, both at home and internationally.
The girl who asks her boyfriend "Who's that guy?" when George has laid down Biff is Sachi Parker, daughter to Shirley MacLaine and niece to Warren Beatty.
The original Marty was Eric Stoltz. He had already been acting for years and actually had a Best Supporting Actor Golden Globe nomination for another movie (Mask) the same year Back to the Future was released. He doesn't have nearly the energy of Michael J Fox and is typically a more dramatic actor. He's had a long career and has also been producing and directing.
Great reaction Kristen and Hayley like always, love this movie its one of my favourites, and the trilogy is a timeless masterpiece. There are a cameo in this one, Huey Lewis and the News provided the song "Back in Time" to the Back to the Future soundtrack, which played during the film's credits. At the beginning of Back to the Future, Huey Lewis took on a nerdy persona in an uncredited cameo as a judge for Battle of the Bands. Marty's band "The Pinheads" played a hard rock cover of Huey Lewis and the News' "Power of Love," but were ironically rejected by Huey Lewis' character. And this was the first film role for Billy Zane While he played a bigger role than a short cameo, Billy Zane made his acting debut as Biff's friend Match in this movie and second. Keep up the good work.
"It's too darn loud" line, said by the teacher with the bullhorn was actually Huey Lewis, the actual writer and performer of the song Marty was playing at the audition. Lewsi had mulitiple hits with his band the first half of the 1980's. [Huey Lewis and the News]. te Delorian car [gray car time machine] was a failed car that they only made about 1800 of them. Everyone laughed when they saw it on the screen back in 1985. on ef many things aboutthis movie thatt goes over the young set's head. Where I live, A guy down the street, pretty rich, has a car museum and has a Delorean in it.
FYI the judge that uses the speaker saying "you're too darn loud" is Huey Lewis the singer who did the movie theme song that Marty started playing :D
It baffles me how ppl have never seen movies like back to the future and die hard
If you watch it again and look for little details you would be truly blown away. I'll give you one example: they test the DeLorean at the parking lot of the twin pines mall but Marty runs over a pine tree while escaping the Peabodys. Back in 1985, when he gets back to the parking lot and sees Emmet get shot, he is standing next to the sign for the Lone Pine mall
There’s a BTTF comic line that explains little details. In one issue, Doc was seen as the crazy, black sheep, scientist of the town. Marty was drawn to the crazy science experiments, so he snuck into Doc’s lab. Doc caught him, was surprised somebody was actually interested in his experiments, so Doc hired him as a lab assistant, like Hailey said.
There’s also an account in the comics that puts a certain character played by a famous bassist at the source of why Marty ended up sneaking into Doc’s place. Of course, we all know what Marty didn’t like to be called, so…
there's a back to the future comic?
@@spextrekid9410Yep! From 1991 to 1993, there was a series published by Harvey Comics which was an extension of the animated series. IDW published a series which was more of an extension of the movies. That ran from 2015 to 2018, comprising about 7 volumes in all.
One of the proudest moments of my hometown is that the Mall scenes were all shot at the Puente Hills Mall in La Puente, California. I’ve been to the Mall countless times.
