- Sorry if this reaction isn't the best quality compared to my previous ones.... youtube was having a field day with the copyright and kept blocking my video, so i had to go in and mute some stuff and make it super transparent. BUT it was a learning experience! going forward, i'm going to experiment with a different editing style and try something new!

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?
Also they watched Marty grew up from the start so they would be used to what he looked like at the present.
I think its weirder how George chose to employ a dude who tried to r*pe his wife 30 years ago.
Yeah, if anything he might look vaguely familiar in certain outfits but nothing to make them think twice about it
That's what I always say. That and they watched Marty grow day-by-day for 17 years they're not going to draw that connection.
Yep, I always thought Loraine would remember what Marty looked like because she fell for him! 30 years is a long time though!
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.
Yup, Huey Lewis delivers the bad News.
Do you go around saying the same fact on different reactors?
@@Silenced23 It's always a fact no matter where you post it.
@@Silenced23 rip bozo +L +ratio
@meanmax9663 I love that fact! After I learned that fact, I forgave him because he wrote the song 😂😂
“My hair didn't look that good in high school!"
This was the 1980s. Everyone's hair looked good. 😂
Everyone's 80's hair looked good after 2000. (example: stranger things). It's called nostalgia! XD
it chemically looked amazing haha
Most 80s hair style looked awful. Just look at Sarah Connor in Terminator.
@@akyhne Hey, Sarah Connor's hair had a life of its own. 😂
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 like that one too. It has so many layers. Also the fact that you should not be arrogant about your being "from the future" or "progressive" or "more advanced". There are some things a person from 1955 would do with ease and you'd look like a troglodite not able to do a simple task. Not everything from the past is worse.
This little scene indeed has George acting confident for once while Marty is lost. A neat little reverse situation. Another good writing example.
@@gogaonzhezhora8640 or maybe Marty can do a simple task and he twists the bottle cap out of habit. Its not that deep.
@@moriellymoproblems7842 Nothing about this movie is THAT deep. It a fun and entertainment movie. The US barely produced serious movies anyway.
As to the scene it is shown clearly that Marty struggles with the cap. It's not like he does the twist out of habit and then snaps out of it. He sicerely fails to solve the problem there. Obviously he would find out if he had the time. But again, not the point in such a short scene.
From the dramaturgy POV it's a nice little scene because of the switch in authority between Marty and George and it's great, because something like that gives the charachters life and they do not appear too linear and straight forward. A know-it-all from the future who never stumbles would be a boring Mary Sue.
From the perception POV it's still a very unversal setting of father and son(twisted through time-travel), generations etc. That si why the viewer even subconciously perceives those tropes. You don't have to think it through to the very end. After all it is as said a fun and entertainment movie, not a psychological drama.
And they play quite well with the whole future-past theme in the movies. Not too complicated, but appropriately. Back in the day when fun movies were well written.
@@moriellymoproblems7842 That is certainly one layer. You are right.
@Goga Onzhezhora, wait, are there “so many layers” or is it “not that deep”? Can’t have it both ways Goga.
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.
*too
@@Nekotaku_TV Yes sir, grammar nazi. :)
@@capngloval Proud grammar cop here.
the soundtrack to the BTTF movies was insanely good. i remember having a cassette of the first movie when i was little, in the late 80s (that tape was nearly new when i got it) and i listened to it a LOT. i did a karaoke once that had "johnny b goode" as a song, and i did it in the style of marty, and the room had nothing but dropped jaws. they werent expecting me to let loose (i have a good voice when i want to haha)
I lost it when she said "What if those were the lottery numbers?" Now that she's seen Part II she knows...
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.
UCLA, I think.
@@Caseytify Probably USC ….and probably in the Robert Zemeckis building. (Actual name. All the good ones went there……….ashamed to say I rejected an offer to go)
What's even crazier to me.
Is they filmed the entire movie without fox. And refilmed everything with him, only keeping scenes that didn't have his face.
Crazy to think how different the movie would have been without him.
@@ApinofArc Completely untrue.
@@tempsitch5632 Not at all untrue, only a touch inaccurate. They completed about two thirds of the movie with another actor, whose name I forgot, as the lead but they weren't happy with his performance so they replaced him with Michael J. Fox and had to reshoot everything. It was a tough decision and a massive gamble. There's apparently one shot in the film that remains with the other actor's back (I don't remember which one exactly but it's in one of the scenes with Biff and Marty in 1955).
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 :-)
totally agree. Many people say how good of an 80s film it was. Nope, this movie is on greatest of all time lists for a reason. Wonderful movie.
it was insanely good for the 80s, but as a film in itself, it stands up today as a fantastic movie. the story is fun, it has exciting twists, and the special effects were as good as you could possibly get at that time. the cast is insanely good as well. im one of those who likes all three films as if they were one long movie. i regularly binge them together and have a great time doing it!
@@ghomerhust Haha, me too. I can never put on Part 1, without seeing the other two right after 🤗
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"
Yeah, there’s lots of hidden Easter eggs… one of the clocks based on silent film star Harold Lloyd hanging from it mirrors what happens to doc later in the film.
Yes Michael J Fox is a legend
Its actually Lone pines mall. But yes its awesome
I was just going to comment this. It's because, when Marty goes back to 55 he runs over one of Mr Peabody's twin breeding pines... so the mall becomes the Lone Pine Mall.
I want to write a story about time travel where they go back in time to change the present but it changes their memories too so they always think it didn't work. 'We didn't change anything! Still giant lizards!' Why would it change everyone's memories except theirs?
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.
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.
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.
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 !
well until Rick and Morty...lol
There was a Back To The Future animated series. And it started as "Twin Pines Mall"
Well the closest to be sequels to the BTTF trilogy is the animated series, the former Back to the Future ride at Universal Studios Hollywood, Universal Studios Florida, and Universal Studios Japan, and the Telltale Games Back to the Future.
I don't think anybody remembers it, but there once was a cartoon with a dog called Peabody and his boy Sherman who time travelled. The Peabody's (it says it on the mailbox) who wanted to be pine tree farmers are a nod to that cartoon.
@@libertyresearch-iu4fy I remember it. It was on the animated TV series The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends (1959 to 1964). The segment called Peabody's Improbable History is what you are referring to. Mr. Peabody was a genius talking dog (akin to Doc Brown) and Sherman was his adopted human son (the Marty here). In BTTF, Old Man Peabody has the pine tree farm. The actor who plays his son with the comic book (Jason Marin) is actually credited as "Sherman Peabody" in the film's closing credits, so all of this was an intentional nod to the cartoon.
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.
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
20:21 No matter how many times I’ve seen it (a lot) I always flinch when Marty hits his head on the road.
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.)
as someone who saw 1985/2015 being the future and then living through it where the future became the past caused a little existential dread. when the future you see in a film, becomes the present then the past. very confusing
@@Greenwood4727 In Gilbert & Sullivan's 1879, the hero was mistakenly apprenticed to a band of pirates until his 21st birthday. As it develops he was born on leap year, on the 29th day of February, he realizes he won't be free until 1940. However, he asks his girlfriend to wait for him (when he will be 84), and they say "it seems so long."
At first I thought the idea that his mom was such a horn-dog in 1955 was a little odd considering the mores of the time, but then I remembered that teenagers have been having sex (and getting pregnant) since essentially forever. It's still a little odd, but it's a great character trait for her, and it makes her later sentiments much more understandable: she's not trying to "keep [him] respectable," she's trying to protect her son's girlfriend from making the same bad mistakes _she_ made herself at that age!
@@Chasmodius But I think it is more than that. Societal norms coming out of the Victorian era was basically that if you pretended to be a prude, you could away from a lot of "naughty" behavior on the sly. And people always think THEIR behavior back then was much better than their children's. There are actual sayings from ancient Greece where they bemoan the next generation is going to rack and ruin.
Also note how Loraine "asks" Marty to the dance - "I hope you will ask me to the dance."
On top of, not INTO.
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.
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.
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.
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.
10:55 Twin Pines Mall, 16:51 Bye bye Pine, 40:30 Lone Pine Mall
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.
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 😂😂
Also the Wizarding world of Harry Potter transformers fast and the furious marvel superhero island scooby-doo Shrek and cat in the hat and more
While I liked the 2nd one, I felt it ranked 3rd in best. With 3 being the best, 1 being 2nd and 2nd being 3rd.
"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.
She also literally stripped him while he was unconscious. I'm pretty sure they'd call that sexual assault these days... (then again, there's a lot of borderline and not-so-borderline sexual assualt in this movie)
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!
they even said if they knew they were going to do a sequel they would've never put Jennifer in the car with them.
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.
Love the lightbulb 💡 moment at 11:16
“Miran - DeLorean”
😂😂
You’re awesome ❤❤
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.
And Marty 'forgetting how to play the guitar', and then suddenly 'remembering how to play again' after the kiss! Also, there were lottery numbers in the letter Doc ripped up?! And not getting that Mr. Fusion replaced the need for plutonium. She had many misunderstandings of what was going on... definitely a few more viewings recommended to tie up all the loose ends! To be fair, I was still noticing things I missed even after re-watching it a few times!
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!
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!
As I read somewhere, Huey Lewis himself had got the same kind of critics/rejection before.
And "nuking the fridge" would be in one of the Indiana Jones movies, right?🤔
@@petertoth3477 yeah, they used it finally in Indiana Jones 4. Funnily “Nuking the fridge” has become a term of derision in some circles. Kind of a new version of the term “jumping the shark.”
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.
I try to explain that to those that don't get it either. I vaguely remember those I spent 4 years in HS with no mention of just someone who I saw for a few days.
Supposedly, there is a scripted but unfilmed scene where George in 1985 finds a picture of “Calvin Klein” performing at the dance, and puts two and two together.
@@raybernal6829 I remember at least two people very vividly from high school 25 years ago ... those two were girls who I had particular feelings for, one of them I was in love with for all 4 years of high school but never told her, but I remember her face vividly. Can't tell you what she looks like now, so not sure I'd recognize her NOW but yeah ... that was 25 years ago, so its not exactly 30 but I remember her face.
But it's also the fact that she couldn't have cheated on him with Calvin, because Marty wouldn't have been born and be that age. So obviously being an impossibility, they wouldn't think twice about it.
Besides, I'm sure there's a twin for at least one or two people who isn't even related to them, there's only so many variations of humans that can be born before we start repeating ourselves. Like that really old photo of a guy who looked like Nic Cage so everyone had conspiracy theories about him being a vampire.
Im sure that Lorraine would have remembered her original date and George would have remembered the plan from that night..
@@Lee-bz9hw When you were 2 years old I was your imaginary friend. Do you remember me?
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.
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!
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.
This is such a brilliant, creative screenplay. Everything fits, everything makes sense.
"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?'
He wasn't "forgetting how to play" he was disappearing from the timeline.
😎👍 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).
The Frighteners (1996) Michael J. Fox and Robert Zemeckis also in that group as well
Death Becomes Her. Horrible.
@@davidward9737 That one is unique in mixing genres: horror, comedy, thriller.
@@treetopjones737 i agree, you are right that it has 3 genre's. You possibly could add romance too. I just mentioned it because of the original comment it was left out.
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.
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.
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!
great reaction! such a classic movie...looking forward to your reaction to part 2!
🎶 "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.
He sang Hip To Be Square from American Psycho too.
i also think its so funny, that the guy that plays Biff is the sweetest guy in the world
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.
We have to come to a point where we realize they are old movies now... and we're old movies now ... I mean all old now.
I so hope you decide to see the two sequels. As far as sequels go, these two are among the best.
Fantastic reaction!
Please do Part 2. It is phenomenal. Your reaction had me laughing. Really really awesome. Keep it up!!!
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.
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".
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.
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
One of my favorite gags is when George asks Lou for a milk.... chocolate; and then it immediately slides down the bar to him😂
Then exaggerating when he downs it like it's a shot lol
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.
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.
This was a great reaction. Hope you react to the other 2.
I definitely want to!!! I absolutely LOVED this!!!
@@TheMirandalorianReacts react predestination 2014 movie
Also if u will tv shows
React to attack on titan best tv show ever
Doc - "Marty, You've given me something to shoot for..." I've seen this movie a million times, and....wow. Just caught that.
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.
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.
The down thumb is bc of your political opinion.
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.
Just came across your channel yesterday and love every min so far. Your reactions are perfect. Very funny and wholesome. Can't wait to see all your videos.
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.
Eh screw your lord and savior. He's a douche nozzle.
I just discovered your channel, and am now subscribed.
Your reactions come across as genuine, and especially for a movie from my childhood (I'm an '82 baby), it makes me feel ancient but grateful that films I grew up on can still entertain.
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 :)
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 🙂
It's funny how things are. Jimmy Stewart has been said to be impossible to work with, but both Edward G Robinson and James Cagney were said to be really nice
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.
Poor Old Man Peabody. I guess he was so attached to those two pines that he couldn’t bring himself to replace the one Marty ran over. Very sentimental, though I wouldn’t go so far as to call him a… sap. 😉
Notice the time 1:16 but If you turn it upside down it says 911. Twin pines with two trees next to each other, looks like the twin towers.
I loved this saga! I remember when my father showed me this movie, he talked me about his first time watching it on theaters while I was playing the DVD.
I loved this reaction. You caught so much more in this movie than most reactors do. New sub here. Thanks!
you had a great reaction to this. i hope to see your channel more. its always great seeing someone really pick up the nuances of it all.
So glad you’re doing this show. It’s such a great game and the show remains faithful to it while adding some great character moments and backstory.
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.
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.
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!
Loved your reaction! You got a lot of the jokes and ironies, which are SO fun. And the film is even more fun to rewatch because of all the little hints and winks and inside jokes (like someone mentioned about Twin Pines Mall becoming Lone Pine Mall in the future because Marty crashed into Old Man Peabody's pine tree, destroying it, lol).
And now you know why your t-shirt was so cool. 😄❤ Doesn't it make you want another one all over again? Heeee.
This franchise is once in a million. A classic
That was a fun reaction! Keep it up, you're doing a great job at being entertaining and funny af 🤣
Welcome to the UA-cam reactor space. Keep up this sincerity and quality, and you'll be one of the majors inside of a year.
Fun fact: The “to be continued” thing was intended as a joke. They initially didn't plan a sequel. But when it unexpectedly crushed the box office charts, Hollywood did what Hollywood always does: "Let's squeeze every dollar out of this franchise."
Not that I was disappointed about that 😅
The friendship between him and doc brown was my favorite part. You see that even more in the next 2 movies.
first time on your channel. i loved your genuine like and enjoyment of this movie. this reaction was fun.
I can't wait to see more reactions from you! You totally remind me of my best friend in high school when we would watch movies together and comment on them.
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 was one of the best reaction videos ive watched. You are infectious. You are beautiful, funny, smart and extremely entertaining. i love the fact that you enjoy these older movies as well. I am glad i found this. it was just a good, fun time. keep up the great work
I love how they set everything up its so funny and the dialogue they bring so many things full circle
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.
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 😂😂
it's not that he was forgetting how to play, his body was stating to go fade away
I just loved your reactions from the first minute. You are just going to love this trilogy... I can't wait for your next reactions.
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
40:10 "Red" the homeless man is the former mayor of Hill Valley in 1955, Red Thomas.
Great reaction! One of my all time favorite movies. It you like dark comedy and great acting, with impeccable timing. With a beautiful stage set, "CLUE" (1985)
Top 10 movie all time for me. Watching this when it came out was awesomeness. The old town shots were at Universal Studios but the mall is actually here in So Cal (Puente Hills Mall) was a big deal and some of the exterior shots were done here in my hometown of Chino (the farmland back when we had farmland) Great reaction Miranda!!
@The Mirandalorian Reacts:
New subscriber here!
I grew up in the eighties, and the Back To Future trilogy are among my all time favorites; thank you for discovering and covering these and other movies!!
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.
14:42 "oh, plutonium. Looks like vodka cranberry" LOL!! I actually cackled out loud at that, in a room by myself. 🤣
This was the movie I saw with my future wife on our first date. The funny thing is it was also our second date. We were both nervous enough that we forgot we had seen it and went again.
One of my favourite reactions. Seen a lot of them. Born 1977 my self and watching this movie when i was a child was out of this world.
