This is easily one of my favourite films now! The whole concept of being trapped in the past and having to fix things so the future is intact is flawless in this. Also just the anxiety I felt throughout most of the third act was crazy!! Enjoy :)

If you look closely, the name of the mall changed from “Twin pine mall” to “Lone pine mall”. The reason is that when he goes back in time, he runs over one of two pines in the farm. That was such a tiny detail I caught after watching it like 20 times.

[@stephernoodle]

This is one of my favorite tidbits to share with people when this movie is on, it’s such a fun bit of continuity

[@HiddenWindshield]

There's a bunch of those little details. At the beginning of the movie, the little ledge under the clock is undamaged, but when Doc is climbing on the clock, a piece breaks off under his feet, and that piece is still missing at the end.

[@jbearclowater]

The episode of Jackie Gleeson that George watches over dinner in 1985 is the same episode Marty ends up watching with Lorraine's family.

[@echowall5967]

The creators wanted the Time Machine to be a fridge but they changed it when they realized kids might try to reenact the scene The actor for Biff is so nice in real life. During the car scene he kept stopping the scene to make sure the actress for Lorraine was still ok with what they were doing The teacher who said he was too loud was the original performer of the song Marty was singing. (Power of Love by Hewey Lewis and the news)

Michael J Fox did indeed have a huge career. It was sidelined when his Parkinson's condition worsened. But since then he's done a HUGE amount of work raising awareness, and raising money for research. All the while keeping a very positive persona. Canadians are incredibly proud to call him one of our own. 🇨🇦❤🇨🇦

[@GreatgunYu]

It’s sad how Parkinson’s got to him while he was still particularly young. I think Fox was showing signs during the late 90s, not sure though? But he is fighting and still here helping raise awareness!

I never appreciated just how dark that scene is with Lorain and Biff in the car when I was a kid. Watching it as an adult and understanding just how scary that moment is, is wild!

[@williamshelton4318]

Biff arguably attempted vehicular homicide on Marty earlier. He’s more villainous than your average high school bully.

[@nisto1518]

Fun fact: the actor who walks into Doc's place at the very beginning, where you can only see his legs, is the original actor who was supposed to play Marty. Then Michael J Fox came in to play the Marty we all know, but for some reason the production kept that specific footage of the original actor.

[@runic_raptor]

The production was apparently really dodgy. Basically any shot that doesn't have Michael J Fox in it was filmed before he even agreed to play the eole. I think he had something else going on and his agent wouldn't release him so they had another guy but they REALLY wanted Michael J Fox so they shot it in such a way that limited the number of shots they had to redo

[@nisto1518]

@@runic_raptor Oof...that is super dodgy. I hate that for the original actor, but Michael J Fox does just make these movies.

[@thierry-VFX]

Wrong, because E.Stoltz was wearing black pants, while M.J.Fox was wearing blue jeans.

[@stackels97]

They originally cast Eric Stoltz for the role, but his take on the character was a lot more serious. It didn't work with the tone they were going for, so they recast. Michael J. Fox was working full time on Family Ties at the time, so the majority of his fiming was done at night after he was done with Family Ties for the day. The dude was exhausted, so yeah, they tried to limit the amount of shooting he had to do by reusing some shots from the filming they had already done with Stoltz. I haven't read anything about him not being compensated for his time and work, though.

[@concettasorvillo3719]

​@@runic_raptorI knew a different story: the first actor was the actual actor chosen but half way the movie they realized that he and Doc didn't have s good chemistry and meanwhile Fox was available again. The director already knew is sense of comedy and called him. But yes, they did try to use some of the old footage because of money shortage.

[@sean_b_drummer]

In the opening scene as we scan across his clock collection, you'll see a paper doll depicting Doc hanging from the clock tower. 😳

[@johnnehrich9601]

Actually, that is a clock based on the 1923 silent movie comedy, Safety Last, where Harold Lloyd climbs up the side of a tall building and winds up hanging off the hands of the giant clock dozens of feet above the street. (This scene, as a still, shows up all over. Because the movie is so old, it is in the public domain and is copyright free. There are several KZbin videos with the full movie, free of charge - just type in the title. And you will see some of the most amazing stunts often performed by the lead actor.) Then when Doc is hanging off the clock tower is in turn a homage to the 1923 film.

[@BadAssSykO]

The DMC DeLorean was a huge failure. It was only manufactured between January 1981 til December 1982. Not long after people purchased the car did they notice how badly made they were. One of the biggest problems with the car was it sometimes just wouldn't start or as you were driving it, the engine would randomly turn off. DMC lost tons of money and was forced to file for bankruptcy in early 1983. They only produced less than 10,000. After this movie in 1985, the car became pretty popular, but was extremely rare.

[@RossCastro]

Was about to comment about this after hearing his commentary on "bad product placement". At the time the joke was that Doc Brown built a time machine on a joke or a car that was prone too so much troubles. It's essentially like if Doc Brown built a time machine out of a Tesla or Cybertruck because he thought it was cool.

[@bodilhov9722]

Lots of easter eggs in this movie. One often overlooked is how the mall is called "Twin Pines Mall" before he travels to the past, and "Lone Pine Mall" after he's been to the past and hit one of Peabody's pines when he left the barn.

[@GaimeGuy]

Funny, when I was young I thought the "ANOTHER ONE OF THESE DAMN KIDS JUMPED IN FRONT OF MY CAR!" scene was about him being a reckless driver and hitting random pedestrians all over the place. Nope, it's about his high school daughter being an exhibitionist, always changing in front of her window, and other kids coming to the house for a peep show.

[@trinityhorn9265]

Hey oscar i'm so happy you're watching this, back to the future is one of my favorite movies also the guy that tells marty's band that they're just too darn loud is huey lewis who made the song the power of love

[@SC-gp7kt]

Christopher Lloyd, who plays "Doc Brown" played "Jim", a crazy cab driver in an old sitcom called, "Taxi", with Danny Devito, Judd Hirsch, Marilu Henner, Jeff Conaway R.I.P. ("Grease"), Tony Danza, and Andy Kaufman R.I.P. Lloyd also is a writer/producer for other shows, including "Frasier", the most successful spinoff of a show in tv history (from "Cheers").

[@peridot1706]

It's a different Christopher Lloyd who did Frasier and Modern Family. That Lloyd is the son of the screen writer David Lloyd (The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, Taxi, Cheers, Frasier and Wings).

[@shirw]

Took me forever to realize Doc's place at the beginning is his garage from the 50's! This is a great movie to re-watch and find little extras every time! I originally saw this at the movie theater with friends :)

[@jbearclowater]

I've seen this movie easily 20 times, and every time I watch it, there is something else to notice. It's one of the best screenplays ever written, in my opinion.

[@lennyvalentin6485]

You see a newspaper clipping in the very first scene about the Brown family mansion having burned to the ground, that's why he lives in his garage later on. Pretty big honkin garage too btw... :)

[@theroyaljules39]

You would probably love who framed Roger rabbit. It’s directed by the same guy who did this movie, also includes Christopher Lloyd, AND it’s the precursor to the Disney renaissance! My favorite movie of all time

[@johnnehrich9601]

Both movies were directed by Robert Zemeckis. Both reflect his world view, of how American society was radically changed when after WWII, the personal auto transform live, from the downtown to the suburban mall and developments. In Roger Rabbit, it is about the very real conspiracy to eliminate trolley car systems across the US, and running freeways through the center of the city. (Type in "Roger Rabbit" and "trolleys into KZbin to read discussions about this. But watch Disney movie first.)

Marty's arc stretches over 3 movies. His dad was the one that had the most character arc in the first movie. The second and third changes focus on the characters. You are in for a treat. These movies are basically the perfect trilogy.

[@jbearclowater]

I love how much you praise Christopher Lloyd's acting in this. The man is a phenomenal actor in SO many things, and he really brings such a perfect zaniness to the role.

[@AshleysAdvice]

A lot of stuff in this film is so funny especially since the first two films in the trilogy really connect to each other, like there's a reference to biffs joke in the second film where in this one he says make like a tree and get out of here, but then older biff Corrects him in the second film saying it's make like a tree and leave you idiot or something like that and it's really funny because it just goes to show how dumb Biff was originally, but this whole franchise is so iconic because the way that the three films connect to each other and it all comes back to that point in 1955, where they reference it in all three films.

[@tonylavagnaart3865]

A great detail in this movie which is easily missed. When Marty is at the mall before he first travels back in time, it's called the Twin Pines Mall. When he travels to the farm, there are two pine trees and Marty accidentally destroys one with his car. Fast forward to the end when Marty is back in 1985, the Twin Pines Mall is now called, The Lone Pine Mall. How amazing is that.

oh one other thing, not long after i saw the musical of Back to the Future, Michael J Fox talked about it in an interview, he said it was absolutely brilliant, he was saying that the actors who played Marty and Dr Brown in particular did so brillaint in replicating the film yep that's the delorean...and you can still find it today...although i'm not sure where they keep it now, probably in some museum somewhere. Marty did give goldie the idea to be Mayor but that's not a paradox...a paradox is when you cause something to happen in time that shouldn't and time collapses. It usually happens when you encounter yourself in time and basically time can't comprehend that so it just goes (BANG!)

Fun bit of movie trivia: the 1980's version of Biff Bannon is based on Donald Trump. The sandy blond combover Biff sports is a notable visual cue for the influence of the 45th president. Let's do our part to keep 80's movie villains out of the White House!

I am so glad you're watching this before Stranger Things Season 3!! They reference this pretty heavily, and the slice of life stuff you see in these is the whole vibe of season 3.

[@liljenborg2517]

Marty in the first Back to the Future is an ideal example of a flat character arc. He doesn’t change or learn much. His presence is a catalyst for change in all the other characters’ lives. Biff is a “perfect villain”. You hate him so much you long to see him get his comeuppance. And Tom Wilson just perfectly plays him.

The teacher in the gym with the megaphone who says they're "Too darn loud" is Huey Lewis...the actual creator/lead singer of the Back to the Future soundtrack... BTW, at the dance at the end, Michael J. Fox is actually playing the guitar and doing his own singing on Johnny B. Goode... Also, the term "Great Scott!"

Michael J Fox was 23 or 24 in this, and you are right he was a huge star in the eighties both on TV in Family Ties which was the role which made him, and in film, this is his biggest role. He was diagnosed with Parkinsons just six years after this and his last full feature film role was Frightners in 1996, though he did move to voice work.

1. Cranky principal Strickland/James Tolkan also played the ship's squadron leader in "Top Gun". 2. The teacher that tells Marty, "Hold it fellas, I'm afraid you're just too darn loud" is Huey Lewis himself. "Heart of rock and roll" etc. 3. Eric Stoltz was first cast as Marty, but he didn't play well with others and wasn't giving the tone they were looking for. 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. DA🙄 7. Twin Pines Mall becomes Lone Pine Mall when Marty takes one out when he goes back to 1955. 8. IMVHO part II is my favorite of the trifecta. 9. If you want a first time/share of an OUTSTANDING movie where Christopher Lloyd plays the heavy you must do "Who Framed Roger Rabbit".

Mad Scientist: If you really think about it, Doc could easily earn a whole of three Nobel's for his inventions - a) time travel, b) a fusion reactor compact enough to fit into a car, c) a superconductor that can withstand power of such magnitude (at a super short duration as well). Last Ditch Effort: If you take into consideration what Doc said about spending whole family fortune on the time machine and his after celebration that he's made something that works, it really does look like standing in front of the DeLorean when it speeds into time travel is his 'it either works, or it's not worth it anymore' moment, with Marty being there because he didn't want to 'go' alone. Home Without A Home: Previous mayor from the 50's is now a homeless bum, which calls Marty's return "drunk driving". Most likely after losing his position he went on a downward spiral. Jailbird: Uncle Joey, mentioned to not make parole at the beginning, and seen as a kid in his play pen with bars, isn't mentioned in any capacity with changed timeline, sadly implying that there are things you can't change.

You're young, so this joke most likely fell flat with you, but I'll put it into context: Around 17:08, the coffee shopkeeper asks Marty if he’s going to order anything, Marty then says “Yeah, give me a TaB (which was a diet soda brand back in the 80’s)”. Since the TaB diet soda has not been invented yet, the shopkeeper misunderstands and says “Tab? I can’t give you a tab unless you order something” as in “Bill you? I can’t bill you for anything if you haven’t placed an order for anything.” Marty then at 17:09 says “Alright, then give me a ‘Pepsi Free’ (which was a “Caffeine Free” version of Pepsi, hence why it was called “Pepsi Free”, which BTW can be seen in Marty’s bedroom near his alarm clock throughout the movie)” and since that “Caffeine Free” version of Pepsi has yet to be invented, the shopkeeper again misunderstands him and responds with “If you want a pepsi pal, you’re going to pay it” as in “I’m not giving you a Pepsi for free.” Marty then realizing he can’t order his preferred choices of drinks from the 80’s in the 50’s, resigns and says “Look, just give me something without any sugar in it, ok?” I know that explaining why the joke is funny doesn’t magically make it funny for some people, but I just wanted to share that because it was a joke that I always liked from the movie.

Ah, your first experience with Crispin Glover. Nice. He's one of the weirdest people in the world, and his eccentricites bleed through in to his acting, leaving a real impression. You should look up his dancing in one of the Friday the 13th sequels. He was also a super creepy hit man in the first Charlie's Angels movie.

This movie is a classic for so many reasons! Definitely watch all three, it's a really good idea of how to do a trilogy correctly!

One of my favourite films, and series of films, of all time. Just a warning prior to potentially watching the sequels - the actress playing Jennifer is different in the later films, as I believe the original actress had personal circumstances that prevented her from featuring. She still does a very good job in the role.

I just love how this movie gets ya every time if you've never seen it. Payoff after payoff, and it's so satasfying! I'm glad you had fun! The others are just as campy and fun too lol

i saw Back to the Future the musical in London not just once but twice...so amazing, great actors, great music...really loyal to the original story and very funny. Has all the classic music plus some extra stuff. they obviously had to adapt a few scenes and lines due to the fact it's a musical and on stage...you can;t do certain things on a stage like in a movie but it was still brilliant and made perfect sense. if you ever hear about it being on i would highly recommend it. regarding the film, without spoilers: Marty McFly: Marty is the youngest of the McFly family, a family of Irish heritage that live in Hill Valley, California (fictional) his family aren't overly succesful but he dreams of being succesful in music and is fairly happy with his girlfriend Jennifer. Jennifer Parker: Jennifer is Marty's loyal and caring girlfriend, she is trying her best to support Marty. Dr Emmett Brown: Dr Brown is friends with Marty, he used to be from a very wealthy family but in recent years he has spent the family fortune building something... Biff Tannen: Biff is kind of the villain, he has a history with Marty's dad, (interesting bit of trivia, he was was based off Donald Trump when they designed him)

I saw it 4 times in theaters, and was obsessed with the soundtrack! I even had the Valtera skateboard they sold in stores.

The delorean was a real sports car from the 1980s with gull wing doors that went up and down and the car made of stainless steel it was a futuristic sports car of the 80s And the perfect car to be the Time machine in back to the future.

There’s a festival truck in South America that just has an entire wall of speakers. It’s loud enough to raise dust off the ground like a shockwave. I would hate to be living down range of those speakers, the sound would go ridiculously far.

I live right by that mall they filmed this at. In fact, I was used that ramp that Marty enters the parking lot from about 30 minutes ago.

This movie is the epitome of perfect efficient screenplay.

[@pendorran]

1985a: Twin Pines Mall. 1985b: Lone Pine Mall.

[@lilybickerton4768]

The second and third ones are amazing so please do not stop here. I love this trilogy so much that I have the time machine tattooed on my arm

[@DR-mq1vn]

This movie and the script is taught in Film Schools as the perfect movie and perfect script!
