I’m 37 years old. Been watching this movie series literally every year I’ve been alive since I was 3. My son and I were able to stand next to and take pictures with the BTTF Delorean, I even touched it. My boy thought is was really cool and was super excited, but I could barely contain myself. I didn’t even want to leave. It’s hard to explain finally being around something you’ve wanted to just look at for real all your life. Hands down, that movie car is one of the most iconic things in modern history.
Hey Brett. I’m also a 37 year old BTTF fan with an almost 3 year old daughter. She’s still into Frozen/Moana, but I plan on showing it to her one day. BTTF was actually the FIRST movie my parents took me to see in the cinema when I was about 3, but I was more interested in trying to eat the candy off the theater floor back then. I hope my daughter has more sense than I did when I show it to her!
Andrew Cutler- although kids today can enjoy those movies, they will never get to experience it like we did. I remember seeing Part 2 in the theater with my grandma. At the end when the trailer for Part 3 showed up I went crazy. I remember how excited I was for that to come out and thinking it seemed a lifetime away to see it. We got to live the excitement, and have to wait for the next installments. Still glad we get to share it with our kids though.
I had a delorean park next to me one time in the same era(85-6?) And thought it was pretty cool. The owner leaned up against my 72 Nova as we were talking and I said"Hey! Watch the paint!" Laughed and laughed. The "paint" was original faded factory blue ...
I went to Universal studios in LA but they didn't have then Delorean there, they had the other cars in BTTF2 tho...it's not that exciting but what can U do 🤷♂️
When i was a kid, my family had all the films on VHS, i played the hell out of them. i saw the series as more of an adventure then a comedy. each movie picked up right where the last ended, which is EXTREMELY rare in film.
@@hardlybreathe93 ---- Well he upgraded his mom and dad who in turn upgraded the whole family. And he learned his lesson about people calling him chicken.
Oh my god! Can we get over the whole "incest" thing already? It's not like he has sex with his mom. She doesn't even know that she's his mom, and he's visibly disturbed by the fact that she has a crush on him since he does. It's just part of the humour of the situation.
I agree. It's the inherent awkwardness of the whole situation that creates the tension and the humor. And it actually plays out relatively tame in the movie, considering where it could have gone and the fact that many of the studios at that time wanted "raunchy" content.
Due to reports of long separated brothers and sisters having sexual feelings for one another, due to similarities in personality and a intangible familiarity/comfort/connection that you take as attraction, it's not that weird that Lorraine would find her son at the same age as her, the perfect man. And she's clearly obsessed with sex (as most teenagers are). Of course, Marty being in the know, is disturbed by her interest in him.
It’s interesting how she has this innate attraction to Marty that she just assumes is romance... but really it’s, of course a much deeper connection that she can’t even explain; “it’s like I’m kissing my brother”
When I first saw this movie I felt like it was made just for me. It had everything I ever wanted in a movie. Time travel, comedy, drama, and the friendship between a high school kid and an eccentric inventor. I have been to Universal Studios and ridden the Back to the Future ride several times until they removed it and replaced it with The Simpsons ride. I have not been back to Universal since.
The one thing I still don’t understand is... how did Doc get into the car while it was parked in the truck? Did he specifically drive the car into the truck and close the door .. only to open it a minute later and back up when Marty showed up?
I was 10 at the time & it remains to this date one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve ever had watching a movie in a theatre. We were spoiled for choice tho in the 80’s when it came to movies, what a great time to be a kid who!!
BTTF is my fav ever. I was 17 in 1985, just like Marty. I still consider myself somewhat inbetween him and Doc Brown. Of course I have a shit load of 80´s music, aviator sunglasses and a 1985 car. Just not a deLorean ;)
I was there on opening weekend in 1985, when I was 10. That movie had everything. Dramatic tension and comedy. The extraordinary heroism of Marty. The over the top villainy of Biff.

FYI, Indy would have suffocated and died in that fridge (even if he'd somehow survived the blast concussion and impact on landing). Those old refridgerators didn't open from the inside. There was almost an epidemic of children dying in discarded refridgerators from the '50s clear into the '70s. My generation had this drilled into our heads all throughout childhood. It was pretty much rule #1: Don't play in old refridgerators, you will die.
@@joelhassig6099 I remember the GI Joe safety tip about not getting inside of discarded fidges. Also, the pressure wave might have just crushed the fridge like a tin can.

Speaker or amplifier? I always thought thats a speaker and amp are what delivers the sound like when you get subwoofers you get the amp to connect to the subwoofer. I dont know a lot. Just curious and cant really get a defined answer
@@Keyser___Soze you're actually right , the speaker and the amplifier are two separate components but most people relay them together and simply call it an implifier all together
@@Keyser___Soze The entire thing is referred to as an amplifier, because it amplifies sound. It takes the electric signal from an instrument, boosts it with the actual amplifier and send it to the speaker, which turns the electrical signal into sound you can hear by moving the air. There's tube amplifiers, which is the traditional way, but is expensive, fragile and not the most practical, but sound amazing, and there's transistor amplifiers which work in the same way a radio does with transistors. Very durable and user friendly, but sounds different.
What made BTTF a hit was actually the nostalgic aspect of going back to 1955. I was in my late teens in 1985 and I loved every aspect of this film: the story, the humor, the music... but working in a movie theatre showing this film I noticed how the audience showing up was mostly people in their 40's and 50's - sometimes families with kids in tow, but mostly parents having a date night without the kids. Sure there were younger people and older people, but a lot of the core audience coming to our theatre had been teenagers and twenty-somethings in the 1950's. Knowing that Spielberg's films always feature characters dealing with Generation Gap issues, I can see why he wanted to do this story - he knew this would be a hit with audiences covering a broad age group. But truly of note for BTTF is the grand setup of the humor at the start of the film. Everyone knows the difference between prudent middle-aged Loraine and her horny, boy-chasing younger self. Most will have caught the Uncle Joey Didn't Make Parole joke when Marty is introduced to Uncle Joey in his playpen as a baby in 1955 with - not one, but two - jokes: Marty's line "So you're my uncle Joey. Better get used to these bars, kid" followed by Loraine's Mom saying "We take him out but all he does is cry, so we leave him in there". We get two great jokes from one simple setup at the beginning. This film is full of little gags like this, and this attention to the subtleties if story elements makes this such a great film. We also know how George's character didn't change from 1955 to 1985 based on events at the beginning of the film, and how his character changed because of Mart'y interference in 1955, but it is actually Marty's character that changes the most: In the beginning of the film Marty is a dreamer, a ne'er-do-well, a wanna be rock star, a slacker, just like his father. By helping George in 1955, Marty's character evolves along the same lines as his father, finding courage and learning to take responsibility for his own future. Oh, and studios in the early-mid 1980's didn't require comedy scripts to be raunchy in order to get a green light. There are plenty of hits that were not: Splash, Ghostbusters, Airplane (1 and 2), Sixteen Candles, Stripes, The Breakfast Club, The Blues Brothers, 9 to 5, 48 Hours, Fletch, The Goonies, Beverly Hills cop, etcetera.
they didn't want people reenacting the refrigerator scene by getting stuck in there, so they opted for the safer "88 mph drive through a mall parking lot"
In the 40s and 50s there was a very depressing series of deaths by kids who played with trashed refrigerators in junkyards or in someone's garage. At the time the doors on the fridges latched so they could not be opened from the inside, and kids died of suffocation before anyone found them. There were safety campaigns urging people to remove the doors from trashed fridges. That would have been a lot more on the conscious in the 80s than now.
@@puncheex2 Oh wow! I never thought about that. My grandfather used to have at least 1 of those refrigerators with the latch. He kept it in an old shed in his yard, that was used as a poker room and had a bocci ball court outside the door. Good thing for me that I never locked myself into it, although I used to enjoy going in there to get myself a mini bottle of 7-up, which he always kept stocked in there.
I loved that movie "I Want To Hold Your Hand, too. I didn't even know it was done by Stephen Spielberg at the time, or that it was even his FIRST movie that he produced if that is correct. I was blown away when I first heard the connection between that movie and BTTF a few years ago. I forget the actor's name that said in verbatim, "Get your damn hands off of her", just like Crispen Glover said to Tom Wilson in BTTF.
Marty spends a week in 1955 with his parents. Yet when he returns to the new 1985 Lorraine and George doesn't say...Hey you look like the kid who got us together
I always wondered what this film might have been if Eric Stoltz stayed throughout the whole production, but on the other hand, it'd be weird to watch that version because Michael J. Fox *IS* Marty McFly.
If they kept eric stoltz in the role of Marty Mcfly Back to the future would've ended being a teen version of somewhere in time. Somewhere in time is a 1980 time traveling movie starring christopher reeves
So that’s why Indiana Jones got in the refrigerator during the crystal skull my guy Steven Spielberg couldn’t let go of that Nuclear bomb sequence. Lol he even implied it after I wrote this comment.
If you're ever worried that your creative project won't pan out because of so many speedbumps along the way, this a classic example to give you hope. Kudos!
I knew about the casting issues and the difficulty in getting it made but was unaware of the nuclear site and the refrigerator concepts in the original script. I really liked your inclusion of the storyboards as well. This was very well done and worth the watch! Thanks!
The film is perfect in so many ways outside of the concept that it portrayed. Not one moment drags, there are no weak spots, the viewer is never lost or bored, nothing feels expository. Pacing is spot-on, the movie never feels too long or too short and abbreviated. It has some genuine heart, it's even a bit cryptic at points, and oh yeah....it's really funny.
Me too. And when I realized that if we went back in time now like the movie, we wouldn't even hit 1985! Man that made me feel old. 1955 seemed like the freaking dark ages when I was a kid.
@@ZnenTitan Actually, we don't realize the changes because we lived through some or most of that time period,. It's like having a friend or family member that you were close with for your whole life. You don't realize how much they have aged until you look back at their photos. Ask a kid nowadays and they will alert you on all the changes, and MORE.
Great video. If you’re a big BTTF fan like me, I’d recommend getting “Back to the Future: The Ultimate Visual History”. It goes over both the pre production and (literally) day by day production of the entire trilogy, with a lot of cool photos and trivia.
I live in that parallel universe too. I once had Olivia's sister. Emilia. Twin sister, you know. Or was it Olivia? Who knows?! So nobody here knows Michael J. Fox. It's a shame. Stoltz, Lloyd, Wilson are the stars here.
Even John Delorean sent a Fan Letter to the Writers after the film came out and said "Thank you for making My Car a Legend. That is all that i ever wanted to be remembered for. I wanted the car to be Immortal and unique"
From someone here who has lived through the time when this movie came out, I must say that it really touches my emotions to see that it's still being talked about today, Oct 2019, 4 years after the future. I mean the future from 1985. Nevermind that. I was alerted about the premiere of Back To The Future by a family member, knowing that I had an interest in anything to do with time travel. I didn't even know who MJF was. I never had watched Family Ties back then, and still, haven't. I did know of Christopher Lloyd as the crazy looking character from Taxi, which I only watched on occasion. When I watched the previews to the movie, seeing that Lloyd was playing the part of a crazy scientist, I knew right then this movie is gonna be BIG, well, for me at least. Now learning little by little, all of the complications and setbacks the film had during production, getting the right cast members, plot and film studio to accept it, I think to myself WOW! Great Scott!! This movie almost wouldn't have ever existed. It was DENSITY!!
The second the narration mentioned the nuclear test facility, I immediately thought of the abject idiocy that was Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
@@Assimandeli I don't think they were dealing with a Nuclear explosion to travel, I think it was just a time machine phone booth which is weird enough lol.
Not uncommon back than really, they were little more picky on what they put onto the screen compared to now. Now a days seems like movies get made that shouldn't have been.
The success of back to the future is mostly due to the fact that both directors along with spieldbirg payed an outragous attention to small details that people would not normally pay attention to but was well noticed by the viewers . people spent years trying to find a mistake in that movie because of the insignificant impacts that Marty had imposed in the pass and change little details in the future even if they were very small details .. Like the ''Twin Pine Mall '' for starter , whitch turned into the '' Lone Pine Mall '' because of Marty running over one of the pines with the Delorean . Or Marty causing Chuck berry to right the song ''Johnny Be Good '' when he actually learned it from chuck berry's albums himself . or when he influenced Goldie Wilson to become Mayor discovering that it was actually him who caused Goldie to go for politics and mayor
@@anjomendoza2143 . Yeah but sadly they didn't pay so much attention to time influenced details in the sequels as much and did miss a few ones after that . But in the first one no one was able to find a mistake ever .
@@anjomendoza2143 the funny part is that when i saw the movie in the 80's it wasn't me who noticed those details but my brother . If he didn,t mentioned it i would have never noticed those small details or maybe i would have enventually but he's the one in my family who noticed it the first time he saw it . And from there i watched the movie may times over to notice the detail changes and there are lots of them. Sadly the sequel did not provide me with the same amopunt of detail changes . guess there are limits to what a guy can detect in detail changes when it comes to time travel impacts
When I saw this in the theater and Michael J Fox's name came on screen during the opening credits, all the teenage girls in the theater screamed their heads off lol Such a great flick!
"...and it's a shame, because Spielberg really loved the nuclear test sequence." Don't worry, he got it in Indiana Jones, and we all know how that turned out🙄
The funny thing is that Eric Stoltz's interpretation of the movie is right on the money: Marty comes back to a present he doesn't belong in, and to people who had experiences with a version of him that disappeared. This is completely glossed over in the movie.
One of the things I like in BTTF is the common repetitions amongst the generations. It's so unlikely, yet in some way things do repeat themselves. I feel like, against all odds, Marty would be able to relatively settle back in because of this. Stuff may actually be similar. Not the same, but similar enough. Weird, right? But I think that's apart of the point of the films. I dunno. One way to interpret it.
Correct. Back to the future would tread a fine line not becoming dark about the paradoxes created from backwards time travel. The film was intended to be a science fiction comedy.
From Farscape Scorpius/Harvey: All modern research points to the elasticity of time - rather than a brittle framework. John: Can it be corrected? Scorpius/Harvey: Hm - if nudged closely enough to course - events have a way of restructuring themselves. If the participants are the same, the venue's the same, the motivation's the same, then well - the outcome is likely to be the same.
I think I heard that there is a version with Eric Stoltz in it since they filmed the majority of the film with him as Marty. I'd like to see it myself, just to get a perspective of how it would have looked with Stoltz in it instead of MJF.
I am a huge loving fan of _Back to the Future,_ it's really crazy to think of what could have been with this film, the original 1980 script with the fridge as the time-machine and the nuke scene, Eric Stoltz as Marty, etc. It's amazing that it had turned out as perfectly great as it actually did.
Absolutely fantastic. Though I'm kinda of surprised you didn't mention the time machine almost being a mustang when Ford came to the bobs saying that they would give a butt load of money if the time machine were a mustang. Which ultimately letld to Give Gale saying "Doc Brown doesn't drive a F*cking Mustang". Honestly one of my favorite anecdotes
Why did your editor use a picture of Alec Baldwin PLAYING John Delorean in a film instead of a picture of the real John Delorean?! Somebody googled and didn’t pay attention? lol
I saw this in the theater when I was 16 and have been nostalgic ever since wanting vintage cars, Guitar amps etc Then watched "Christine" another movie Classic, oh boy
The Bobs didn’t want people climbing in refrigerators recreating the scene. But they didn’t mind people making mock flux capacitors and stealing there parents car, speeding around at 88 mph, spinning the wheels trying to create fire! 😂
I was unsure about your channel. I have watched 2 videos so far. I must say you are awesome. Great narrator and you have a good video. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
From all the other documentaries I've watched, I think you got the details wrong regarding Stoltz. The studio made the Bob's use Eric with the promise that, if he didn't work out, the studio would let the Bob's reshoot with their first choice actor Fox.
I'm wondering when doc brown mentioned " i got plutonium from the Librans, i made them think im making some kind of bomb" was an Easter egg for the movies original plot?
This video was AWESOME!!! I thought I knew most of not all there was about the making of this amazing movie, but you hit on somethings that I never did know! I knew about the the actor they had playing Marty and how they wanted Michel J Fox first, but I had no idea about the whole Jennifer part, nor that when they ask the first time that they never even told Fox about the offer the first time! Heck even the original story! GOOD VIDEO!!
Bill and Ted were going to use a Van, but when Bttf switched from fridge to car, they had to switch from Van to Phone booth , so that they didn't seem like copying
The sax player in the band is a guy by the name of Tommy Thomas. I was in the LBCC band with him. I took a date to see the movie, saw him and couldn't place him for a minute because he always was smiling in real life but tough looking in the movie. When it struck me I yelled. That's Tommy Thomas!...in the middle of a crowded theater.
I think it's worth mentioning that although Disney rejected the offer to produce the movie, they still granted permission for Universal to film the Peabody Ranch scene at the Golden Oak Ranch in Newhall, CA, which is owned by Disney and has famously appeared in numerous live-action Disney films (i.e. Parent Trap, Pete's Dragon).
7:05 C. Thomas Howell was their second choice. The studio told them to go with Eric Stoltz and arranged it so that if they weren’t satisfied with his performance, they could restart.
This video was extremely interesting!!! There were several things that I wasn't aware of in regards to Back to the Future. I love to hear about "what was going to be used or done"(regarding actors, props, ideas) vs "The Finished Product."
LOVED Back To The Future! I graduated high school in 1984!! Loved Michael J. Fox too! My husband introduced me to the movie, I Wanna Hold Your Hand! It's a GEM! I laughed! My husband grew up with The Beatles and I grew up with Michael Jackson, Duran Duran, Hall and Oates, Whitesnake!😁
Funny thing, my dad was a very popular dude in HS in the 50s, WAS not only the HS class pres, but the HS mascot for the football team. In the 60s he became a popular radio announcer, involved in the counter cultural movement, but unfortunately his star began to burn out by the time I came along in 1971. I too found his HS yearbook when I was about 14, and was shocked that this guy who fathered me was at one time, wt a s actually popular in HS. He recently died about a month ago. I will miss him tremendously.
The Broken Homes-Great Unsung Los Angeles Band were next to audition after Marty in the Gym!!:)Kreg Ross still plays lead guitar for Lenny Kravitz&Jimmy"2Fingers"Ashhurst went on to play with Izzy Stardlin&Buckcherry!!:)Also had a tune on the great Weird Science!!!!
I loved this film so much I bought a 1981 DeLorean and still drive one to this day. But at the Risk of sounding like Dr. Emmett Brown, now that I know more about physics, this movie actually is pretty scientifically accurate from the little we know about the concept of time travel. How the DeLorean works, although not delved into much in the story. As long as it was gravitationally linked to a certian spot on the earth, theoretically, it would work!
@@beernpizzalover9035 Good for you my friend! Love your tags! 82s and 83s have a few more bugs worked out of them so you should have a decent car there. Good wishes to you being approached by people who want to have their picture taken with you and your car at a gas station when a 100,000 Mercedes pulls in next to you and nobody even notices...
Congrats, man. Very well made video! Only suggestion would be some padding on the walls so as to get a less "roomy" and more studiobooth like voice. Besides that, crazy pro, bro!
My mom took me to see BTTF in July 1985 and it is the only movie that I can say actually changed my life. I was never a car kid, but when I saw a DeLorean, I knew I needed to have one, and that is finally something that I'm working on making reality. I also developed my first movie crush in Lea Thompson. She woke my hormones up at 8 years old. I was fortunate enough to see all 3 films in the theater. Two years ago I showed my son the trilogy for the first time on vacation and it truly is a movie that you pass down to your children and they their children. And Back To The Future has only gotten more popular over the decades and there is a never ending demand for a 4th film. Only reason I wish they'd make one is that a fourth Future is the only movie that could pummel an Avengers movie in head-to-head box office combat.
I’m 37 years old. Been watching this movie series literally every year I’ve been alive since I was 3.

Time travel, comedy, drama, and the friendship between a high school kid and an eccentric inventor. I have been to Universal Studios and ridden the Back to the Future ride several times until they removed it and replaced it with The Simpsons ride. I have not been back to Universal since.
A movie that almost didn't exist, and was almost dumb, turned into one of the most awesome, famous and loved movie.
The one thing I still don’t understand is... how did Doc get into the car while it was parked in the truck? Did he specifically drive the car into the truck and close the door .. only to open it a minute later and back up when Marty showed up?
@@Medicranger obviously, he beamed down into it from his Klingon Bird of Prey.
The nuclear thing and refrigerator would have been dumb and made the movie stupid
Time heals all wounds
Lol. I just like to think he installed trap doors for a dramatic entrance.
I saw this movie at 9 years old in 1985 and was blown away. I didn't get all the humor, but it was so well done I loved every minute of it
I was 5 in 1985, but I did see back to the future 2 and 3 in the cinema. I used to be obsessed with BTTF
I was 10 at the time & it remains to this date one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve ever had watching a movie in a theatre. We were spoiled for choice tho in the 80’s when it came to movies, what a great time to be a kid who!!

BTTF is my fav ever. I was 17 in 1985, just like Marty. I still consider myself somewhat inbetween him and Doc Brown.
Of course I have a shit load of 80´s music, aviator sunglasses and a 1985 car. Just not a deLorean ;)

In one of the early drafts George McFly takes a look at his year book and figures out it’s his son.

The actor that plays biff tells a story that he believed he was the one that was going to get fired not stoltz. It's a really funny story around an inexperienced actor thinking he was the weak link to an established one.
I'm pretty sure Lea Thompson and Christopher Lloyd faced the same insecurities when the powers-that-be called meetings with them about Stoltz, too.
a guy made a part IV based on a video game, that goes for about 2 hours on youtube. you can search it. cartoonish
fun fact . The amplifier that Marty played on at the start of the movie actually exists and it actually works
And here I thought I knew everything about these movies.
Speaker or amplifier? I always thought thats a speaker and amp are what delivers the sound like when you get subwoofers you get the amp to connect to the subwoofer. I dont know a lot. Just curious and cant really get a defined answer
Technically, yea. It’s the chasis of a Gibson GA-5T
@@Keyser___Soze you're actually right , the speaker and the amplifier are two separate components but most people relay them together and simply call it an implifier all together
@@Keyser___Soze The entire thing is referred to as an amplifier, because it amplifies sound. It takes the electric signal from an instrument, boosts it with the actual amplifier and send it to the speaker, which turns the electrical signal into sound you can hear by moving the air.
There's tube amplifiers, which is the traditional way, but is expensive, fragile and not the most practical, but sound amazing, and there's transistor amplifiers which work in the same way a radio does with transistors. Very durable and user friendly, but sounds different.
What made BTTF a hit was actually the nostalgic aspect of going back to 1955. I was in my late teens in 1985 and I loved every aspect of this film: the story, the humor, the music... but working in a movie theatre showing this film I noticed how the audience showing up was mostly people in their 40's and 50's - sometimes families with kids in tow, but mostly parents having a date night without the kids. Sure there were younger people and older people, but a lot of the core audience coming to our theatre had been teenagers and twenty-somethings in the 1950's. Knowing that Spielberg's films always feature characters dealing with Generation Gap issues, I can see why he wanted to do this story - he knew this would be a hit with audiences covering a broad age group.
But truly of note for BTTF is the grand setup of the humor at the start of the film. Everyone knows the difference between prudent middle-aged Loraine and her horny, boy-chasing younger self. Most will have caught the Uncle Joey Didn't Make Parole joke when Marty is introduced to Uncle Joey in his playpen as a baby in 1955 with - not one, but two - jokes: Marty's line "So you're my uncle Joey. Better get used to these bars, kid" followed by Loraine's Mom saying "We take him out but all he does is cry, so we leave him in there". We get two great jokes from one simple setup at the beginning. This film is full of little gags like this, and this attention to the subtleties if story elements makes this such a great film.
We also know how George's character didn't change from 1955 to 1985 based on events at the beginning of the film, and how his character changed because of Mart'y interference in 1955, but it is actually Marty's character that changes the most: In the beginning of the film Marty is a dreamer, a ne'er-do-well, a wanna be rock star, a slacker, just like his father. By helping George in 1955, Marty's character evolves along the same lines as his father, finding courage and learning to take responsibility for his own future.
Oh, and studios in the early-mid 1980's didn't require comedy scripts to be raunchy in order to get a green light. There are plenty of hits that were not: Splash, Ghostbusters, Airplane (1 and 2), Sixteen Candles, Stripes, The Breakfast Club, The Blues Brothers, 9 to 5, 48 Hours, Fletch, The Goonies, Beverly Hills cop, etcetera.
This story on getting the film made is almost as impressive as what Stallone went through with ROCKY.
it was the first movie that I actually noticed the score
Yeah! I am surprised they didn't talk about the score at all in this video and what that did for this!
@@richardmahn7589 Because it's one of the things that actually went smoothly.
there is a fantastic acoustic guitar version doing the rounds too

But not on VHS? ^^

they didn't want people reenacting the refrigerator scene by getting stuck in there, so they opted for the safer "88 mph drive through a mall parking lot"
I know, right??!! Someone is going to get themselves killed if they go slow in the parking lot when I'm coming up behind them at 100!
Kids don't often have easy access to automobiles, while almost every house has a refrigerator in it.
In the 40s and 50s there was a very depressing series of deaths by kids who played with trashed refrigerators in junkyards or in someone's garage. At the time the doors on the fridges latched so they could not be opened from the inside, and kids died of suffocation before anyone found them. There were safety campaigns urging people to remove the doors from trashed fridges. That would have been a lot more on the conscious in the 80s than now.
@@puncheex2 It is now illegal where I live to throw out a refrigerator without removing the door or taping it securely shut first.
@@puncheex2 Oh wow! I never thought about that. My grandfather used to have at least 1 of those refrigerators with the latch. He kept it in an old shed in his yard, that was used as a poker room and had a bocci ball court outside the door. Good thing for me that I never locked myself into it, although I used to enjoy going in there to get myself a mini bottle of 7-up, which he always kept stocked in there.
I saw Back To The Future at the theater as a kid. It was frickin awesome!
My favorite movie and the closest example of a “perfect” one.
Absolutely!
Midnight Run is another one.
I didn't get to watch this movie till college and even today I'm amazed how much rewatch value it has
@Disent Design The second one.
@Real Donald Trump I agree. That's why I decided to drop out of college after six months.
i got mad love for "i wanna hold your hand" and "used cars". i highly recommend these movies
I loved that movie "I Want To Hold Your Hand, too. I didn't even know it was done by Stephen Spielberg at the time, or that it was even his FIRST movie that he produced if that is correct. I was blown away when I first heard the connection between that movie and BTTF a few years ago. I forget the actor's name that said in verbatim, "Get your damn hands off of her", just like Crispen Glover said to Tom Wilson in BTTF.
One of, if not my very favorite movie of ALL time! It's a must view at least once per year.
Marty spends a week in 1955 with his parents. Yet when he returns to the new 1985 Lorraine and George doesn't say...Hey you look like the kid who got us together
Unbelievable how much distress this gem of a movie went through. Great job!
I always wondered what this film might have been if Eric Stoltz stayed throughout the whole production, but on the other hand, it'd be weird to watch that version because Michael J. Fox *IS* Marty McFly.
He took the part TOO seriously. If you wanna see him at his best watch mask, with cher.
@@Invidente7 never again.....movie sucked...
If they kept eric stoltz in the role of Marty Mcfly Back to the future would've ended being a teen version of somewhere in time.
Somewhere in time is a 1980 time traveling movie starring christopher reeves

So that’s why Indiana Jones got in the refrigerator during the crystal skull my guy Steven Spielberg couldn’t let go of that Nuclear bomb sequence.
Lol he even implied it after I wrote this comment.
I was totally thinking the same lol
timeless classic! I will forever love the back to the future trilogy!
If you're ever worried that your creative project won't pan out because of so many speedbumps along the way, this a classic example to give you hope. Kudos!
I knew about the casting issues and the difficulty in getting it made but was unaware of the nuclear site and the refrigerator concepts in the original script. I really liked your inclusion of the storyboards as well. This was very well done and worth the watch! Thanks!
When people ask me what my all time favorite movie is, I say, "Back to the Future". ...and it still is my favorite movie.
It also almost got me arrested for holding onto the back of a sheriff's car while on my skateboard
The film is perfect in so many ways outside of the concept that it portrayed. Not one moment drags, there are no weak spots, the viewer is never lost or bored, nothing feels expository. Pacing is spot-on, the movie never feels too long or too short and abbreviated. It has some genuine heart, it's even a bit cryptic at points, and oh yeah....it's really funny.
Saw this at the cinema in 1985 - wow.
...
Bring back the 80s !
If I only had a Delorean with a flux capacitor.....
Me too. And when I realized that if we went back in time now like the movie, we wouldn't even hit 1985! Man that made me feel old. 1955 seemed like the freaking dark ages when I was a kid.
@@matteframe What is also strange is how much less things have changed from 1985 until now, as compared to the 50's through the 80's
@@ZnenTitan Actually, we don't realize the changes because we lived through some or most of that time period,. It's like having a friend or family member that you were close with for your whole life. You don't realize how much they have aged until you look back at their photos. Ask a kid nowadays and they will alert you on all the changes, and MORE.
I still remember the first time I watched this movie--in English class. I get goose bumps thinking about this movie every time!💓
Great video. If you’re a big BTTF fan like me, I’d recommend getting “Back to the Future: The Ultimate Visual History”. It goes over both the pre production and (literally) day by day production of the entire trilogy, with a lot of cool photos and trivia.
I got it for my birthday and I love reading it.
Check out "Your Friend in Time: How Back to the Future Changed My Life" on Amazon
I met a lady named Olivia once who once saw the Eric Stoltz version in a parallel universe. She said it sucked.
I live in that parallel universe too. I once had Olivia's sister. Emilia. Twin sister, you know. Or was it Olivia? Who knows?! So nobody here knows Michael J. Fox. It's a shame. Stoltz, Lloyd, Wilson are the stars here.
September? Is it you? Can you pass me the peppers please? They are “important” 👨🏻🦲
You can google the Stoltz version and there’s a video that shows about 15-20 minutes worth of film
Yay. Fringe reference!
The Bronze Age of DC Comics
; next time ask her if she saw The Twilight Zone Movie from 1983, where Landis didn't get three people killed on set...
Even John Delorean sent a Fan Letter to the Writers after the film came out and said "Thank you for making My Car a Legend. That is all that i ever wanted to be remembered for. I wanted the car to be Immortal and unique"
From someone here who has lived through the time when this movie came out, I must say that it really touches my emotions to see that it's still being talked about today, Oct 2019, 4 years after the future. I mean the future from 1985. Nevermind that. I was alerted about the premiere of Back To The Future by a family member, knowing that I had an interest in anything to do with time travel. I didn't even know who MJF was. I never had watched Family Ties back then, and still, haven't. I did know of Christopher Lloyd as the crazy looking character from Taxi, which I only watched on occasion. When I watched the previews to the movie, seeing that Lloyd was playing the part of a crazy scientist, I knew right then this movie is gonna be BIG, well, for me at least. Now learning little by little, all of the complications and setbacks the film had during production, getting the right cast members, plot and film studio to accept it, I think to myself WOW! Great Scott!! This movie almost wouldn't have ever existed. It was DENSITY!!
It honestly just keeps getting better and better! Have you had a chance to see the 4K Blu Ray yet? Lolz
Fox was amazing shooting a series and a movie at the same time. MJF was one busy dude during the 80's he was working none stop.
14:14 that's Alec Baldwin playing DeLorean!
One of the best recommend videos I've clicked in a while. Also a very rare for me "one video watched" subscription smoosh.
Back to the future would've been a cheesy typical 80s movie if they kept the refrigerator as the time machine for the movie
The DeLorean in BTTF was and still is the best movie prop / plot device ever.
It's practically a leading character too.
@@razeezar So true
yea would ahve been too much like dr who and bill and teds- but the vehicle time machine has been taken up by countless movies since then
The second the narration mentioned the nuclear test facility, I immediately thought of the abject idiocy that was Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
@Brian Cairns Why not? Worked for Bill and Ted and a phone booth
@@Assimandeli I don't think they were dealing with a Nuclear explosion to travel, I think it was just a time machine phone booth which is weird enough lol.
In stories about movies that would go on to be huge hits,I've learned to expect the part about how originally no one wanted it.
Not uncommon back than really, they were little more picky on what they put onto the screen compared to now. Now a days seems like movies get made that shouldn't have been.
The success of back to the future is mostly due to the fact that both directors along with spieldbirg payed an outragous attention to small details that people would not normally pay attention to but was well noticed by the viewers . people spent years trying to find a mistake in that movie because of the insignificant impacts that Marty had imposed in the pass and change little details in the future even if they were very small details .. Like the ''Twin Pine Mall '' for starter , whitch turned into the '' Lone Pine Mall '' because of Marty running over one of the pines with the Delorean . Or Marty causing Chuck berry to right the song ''Johnny Be Good '' when he actually learned it from chuck berry's albums himself . or when he influenced Goldie Wilson to become Mayor discovering that it was actually him who caused Goldie to go for politics and mayor
Well said. Thats the most detailed analysis ive heard in a long while.
@@anjomendoza2143 . Yeah but sadly they didn't pay so much attention to time influenced details in the sequels as much and did miss a few ones after that . But in the first one no one was able to find a mistake ever .
@@anjomendoza2143 the funny part is that when i saw the movie in the 80's it wasn't me who noticed those details but my brother . If he didn,t mentioned it i would have never noticed those small details or maybe i would have enventually but he's the one in my family who noticed it the first time he saw it . And from there i watched the movie may times over to notice the detail changes and there are lots of them. Sadly the sequel did not provide me with the same amopunt of detail changes . guess there are limits to what a guy can detect in detail changes when it comes to time travel impacts
MAYOR!!!!!!
When I saw this in the theater and Michael J Fox's name came on screen during the opening credits, all the teenage girls in the theater screamed their heads off lol Such a great flick!
"...and it's a shame, because Spielberg really loved the nuclear test sequence."
Don't worry, he got it in Indiana Jones, and we all know how that turned out🙄
14:41
The funny thing is that Eric Stoltz's interpretation of the movie is right on the money: Marty comes back to a present he doesn't belong in, and to people who had experiences with a version of him that disappeared. This is completely glossed over in the movie.
One of the things I like in BTTF is the common repetitions amongst the generations. It's so unlikely, yet in some way things do repeat themselves.
I feel like, against all odds, Marty would be able to relatively settle back in because of this. Stuff may actually be similar. Not the same, but similar enough. Weird, right? But I think that's apart of the point of the films. I dunno. One way to interpret it.
Correct. Back to the future would tread a fine line not becoming dark about the paradoxes created from backwards time travel. The film was intended to be a science fiction comedy.

This is one of my all time favourite movies. It's as close to perfection as you can get.
I literally just re-watched the trilogy yesterday.
You got a favorite?
joshua martin literally?
Literally yesterday. And if I could pick a favorite, well. I usually just watch all three back to back, lol.
@@grackleboi2523 You mean, back, to back, to back lol
joshua martin when I was a kid I was a bit obsessed, and I used to have to watch one of them every day, and sometimes on a weekend I’d watch all three
This video...is an Ode To Joy. I'm still in love with these movies even after all these years. Yes, even the third one.
Saw it opening weekend, one of the best times I've had with an audience...people were cheering at the end..
I would like to see a stoltz tradegy version of the first one. That would be a cool watch in its own right.
Release the Stolz cut! Haha
Tragedy version haha
I think I heard that there is a version with Eric Stoltz in it since they filmed the majority of the film with him as Marty. I'd like to see it myself, just to get a perspective of how it would have looked with Stoltz in it instead of MJF.
I am a huge loving fan of _Back to the Future,_ it's really crazy to think of what could have been with this film, the original 1980 script with the fridge as the time-machine and the nuke scene, Eric Stoltz as Marty, etc. It's amazing that it had turned out as perfectly great as it actually did.
Stoltz version of BTTF as a serious drama is more akin to what Time Travel really is. Dangerous and Scary.
Right. And that version wouldn't have even been beloved or remembered for over 40 years.
President Ronald Regan is mentioned in the movie, and he saw a private screening and laughed at that line Doc says.
Absolutely fantastic. Though I'm kinda of surprised you didn't mention the time machine almost being a mustang when Ford came to the bobs saying that they would give a butt load of money if the time machine were a mustang. Which ultimately letld to Give Gale saying "Doc Brown doesn't drive a F*cking Mustang".
Honestly one of my favorite anecdotes
I have always been a Michael J. Fox fan but to hear his dedication for the movie and the show.....Holy Crap
The film I took my my first "serious" date to. Can't believe it's been 34 years.
Me too, actually. A very cute countess in my class. Failed completely. :D
Did I end up in the wrong timeline? I've never heard of any of those early movies by those guys before....
am I the only person that he's honestly intrigued by this serious take and the performance of Eric stoltz? I would love to see this footage.
Same, it blew my mind when I first read about it. Would be really interesting to see.
Eric's Marty is the result of the alternate timelines where Marty and Lorraine passed beyond the incest barrier and being grossed out…
Is it in the extras on the blu-ray box set, or am I talking shit?
Why did your editor use a picture of Alec Baldwin PLAYING John Delorean in a film instead of a picture of the real John Delorean?! Somebody googled and didn’t pay attention? lol
14:10 I noticed the same thing.
One of my favourite films of all time! "SAVE THE CLOCK TOWER!"
From time to time I find myself wanting to watch the "Stoltz version" but then again ... nahh, it's perfect with Fox (and Wells)
Watching this movie makes me wonder what changed to get from the 85 of that franchise to the 2015 of that franchise that we sadly didn't get?
Ok... but Jeff Goldblum as Doc. I could totally live with that.
Maybe in another time travel movie with a different character but Doc Brown IS Chrisopher Lloyd! Better recognize 😎
I saw this in the theater when I was 16 and have been nostalgic ever since wanting vintage cars, Guitar amps etc
Then watched "Christine" another movie Classic, oh boy
The Bobs didn’t want people climbing in refrigerators recreating the scene. But they didn’t mind people making mock flux capacitors and stealing there parents car, speeding around at 88 mph, spinning the wheels trying to create fire! 😂
I was unsure about your channel. I have watched 2 videos so far. I must say you are awesome. Great narrator and you have a good video. Keep up the good work. Thank you.
One of my ALL TIME favorite movies!!!
From all the other documentaries I've watched, I think you got the details wrong regarding Stoltz. The studio made the Bob's use Eric with the promise that, if he didn't work out, the studio would let the Bob's reshoot with their first choice actor Fox.
This is just proof that what’s meant to be will be.
I'm wondering when doc brown mentioned " i got plutonium from the Librans, i made them think im making some kind of bomb" was an Easter egg for the movies original plot?
This video was AWESOME!!! I thought I knew most of not all there was about the making of this amazing movie, but you hit on somethings that I never did know! I knew about the the actor they had playing Marty and how they wanted Michel J Fox first, but I had no idea about the whole Jennifer part, nor that when they ask the first time that they never even told Fox about the offer the first time! Heck even the original story! GOOD VIDEO!!
Awesome video! I just subscribed!
Thank you for saying the line Jigawatt correctly. I can always spot a true fan with that line pronounced correctly.
@6:07 lmao at Joe Piscopo considered for Doc. What a bullet they dodged there.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the movie was going to be titled "Spaceman from Pluto"
Bill and Ted, the time machine was a phone booth.
Embargoman - A phone booth? That’s stupid. What’s next, a blue police call box? ;-)
Bill and Ted were going to use a Van, but when Bttf switched from fridge to car, they had to switch from Van to Phone booth , so that they didn't seem like copying
Bogus....

The sax player in the band is a guy by the name of Tommy Thomas. I was in the LBCC band with him. I took a date to see the movie, saw him and couldn't place him for a minute because he always was smiling in real life but tough looking in the movie. When it struck me I yelled. That's Tommy Thomas!...in the middle of a crowded theater.
I think it's worth mentioning that although Disney rejected the offer to produce the movie, they still granted permission for Universal to film the Peabody Ranch scene at the Golden Oak Ranch in Newhall, CA, which is owned by Disney and has famously appeared in numerous live-action Disney films (i.e. Parent Trap, Pete's Dragon).
Thnx for the video... It was informative, well edited and reminded me of the greatness this movie WAS, IS, AND WILL BE.
7:05 C. Thomas Howell was their second choice. The studio told them to go with Eric Stoltz and arranged it so that if they weren’t satisfied with his performance, they could restart.
This video was extremely interesting!!! There were several things that I wasn't aware of in regards to Back to the Future. I love to hear about "what was going to be used or done"(regarding actors, props, ideas) vs "The Finished Product."
LOVED Back To The Future! I graduated high school in 1984!! Loved Michael J. Fox too! My husband introduced me to the movie, I Wanna Hold Your Hand! It's a GEM! I laughed! My husband grew up with The Beatles and I grew up with Michael Jackson, Duran Duran, Hall and Oates, Whitesnake!😁

In the 60s he became a popular radio announcer, involved in the counter cultural movement, but unfortunately his star began to burn out by the time I came along in 1971.

I loved this film so much I bought a 1981 DeLorean and still drive one to this day. But at the Risk of sounding like Dr. Emmett Brown, now that I know more about physics, this movie actually is pretty scientifically accurate from the little we know about the concept of time travel. How the DeLorean works, although not delved into much in the story. As long as it was gravitationally linked to a certian spot on the earth, theoretically, it would work!
Mitch Salawine I bought a 1982 - mainly because I already owned license plates that said ‘NO TIME’ ...

My mom took me to see BTTF in July 1985 and it is the only movie that I can say actually changed my life. I was never a car kid, but when I saw a DeLorean, I knew I needed to have one, and that is finally something that I'm working on making reality. I also developed my first movie crush in Lea Thompson. She woke my hormones up at 8 years old. I was fortunate enough to see all 3 films in the theater. Two years ago I showed my son the trilogy for the first time on vacation and it truly is a movie that you pass down to your children and they their children. And Back To The Future has only gotten more popular over the decades and there is a never ending demand for a 4th film. Only reason I wish they'd make one is that a fourth Future is the only movie that could pummel an Avengers movie in head-to-head box office combat.
That 4th isn't gonna happen. The two Bobs refuse and said that it'll happen over their dead bodies.
