I'VE BEEN TRYING TO POST THIS ONE FOR THE LONGEST TIME!! FINALLY MADE IT TO RUclips! 🥳 The editing is a little hectic but every darn clip was getting claimed😅 Anywaysss I had a blast!! I hope you guys enjoy!!! 🫶
ya did good, it flowed pretty nicely
2:50 they never explain it in the movies, but i think Doc met him when he was 13 or 14 and Marty became his research assistant..... i think. lol 5:30.... Biff... ALL vehicles have some type of blind spot, THAT'S why you adjust your seat and mirrors, DUH. Exactly HOW did Biff become a supervisor?!??? lol ugggggggggh, Biff gets on my nerves. lol
Nice to see the two most beautiful women in one reaction, Jennifer Parker and you 😊
Really good job, you managed to get more in than most and very much appreciated. Don't forget though, there are two more to round off the best trilogy in film😮. And when anyone tells you to stop at 'To be continued' after 2, it was in the theatrical version and everything since. There are no spoilers, just a teaser so you should decide for yourself if you want to watch it... Either way, see you in the future, or past, or next upload😊
You had a blast... FROM THE PAST! 😁
Co-Writer Bob Gale about how Marty knows Doc:
For years, Marty was told that Doc Brown was dangerous, a crackpot, a lunatic. So, being a red-blooded American teenage boy, age 13 or 14, he decided to find out just why this guy was so dangerous. Marty snuck into Doc’s lab, and was fascinated by all the cool stuff that was there. when Doc found him there, he was delighted to find that Marty thought he was cool and accepted him for what he was.
Both of them were the black sheep in their respective environments. Doc gave Marty a part-time job to help with experiments, tend to the lab, tend to the dog, etc.
And that’s the origin of their relationship.
In the original script Doc pirated video tapes and Marty sold them, they met at Blockbuster.
Aw. I always just assumed they were friends because Marty played the guitar and Doc had a massively cool amplifier !
I think it’s fun that this is out there so the friendship can be explained to those who want it, but frankly I think it’s better not knowing. It’s one of the great mysteries of the movie series and just adds so much to a brilliantly written relationship. :)
Really? How about Doc himself looking up for that guy that came to him in 1955? Everything in the movie works that circular way that I wrote. That is how this movie works. Closed loop
There are alternatives. Marty needed to acquire a tube for "Needles'" guitar amp. Doc had bought all the stock of the particular tube from the local guitar shop. He went to Doc's place to ask if he could have one or buy one. Doc, being Doc, had set tasks/traps for visitors to gain access to his place. Marty managed to overcome them all by luck and some lateral thinking. This impressed Doc so much that he asked Marty to become his assistant.
The "I'm afraid you're just too darn loud" teacher is actually Huey Lewis, original performer/writer of that song.
They wrote the soundtrack for the film.
That scene is hilarious but very few people today know that was Huey Lewis.
I want a new drug.
well ya know that's the Power of Love. duh dunn duh duh duh dun.
Why tf does everyone & their mom has to comment this same exact thing on every back to the future reaction videos. I mean there are so many other insanely cool details in the movie. Like how the clock tower in the beginning isn't cracked but it's cracked later. & many more.
This film is a masterpiece in more ways than one. The script is often cited as the “perfect” script and is used in screenwriting classes. There is not one scene or one LINE of dialogue that is wasted. Everything is setup and payoff. Sheer genius.
That’s so cool!
They even make the mayor from 1955 the homeless guy in 1985.
Now that’s economy.
@@robbob5302 That's a popular urban legend, but the timeline doesn't add up. Based on his photo, Mayor Red Thomas appeared to be at least in his 60s, if not older, in 1955. While Marty does refer to the homeless guy as "Red", the guy is much too young-looking in 1985 to be the same person (who would be at least in his 90s if he's still alive). He looks like a 50-something, at most, and homeless people tend to look significantly older than their actual ages due to the fact that they lack access to changes of clothing and facilities to keep themselves groomed. My headcanon is that "Red the bum" is the grandson of Mayor Red Thomas, and was named after him.
The actor who plays Biff ,Thomas F. Wilson was 25 , Michael J. Fox was 23 and Marty's dad was played by Crispin Glover was 20.
They try to avoid actors that are actually school age because they are limited on how many hours they can work and they have to be tutored. So it is a lot more economical to use slightly older actors
Michael J. Fox has always been short, so with his height and his boyish looks, he actually carried on playing teenagers into his forties.
As Marty first gets to 1955 in the barn scene, with that family who thinks he's an alien. The actress who plays the daughter was 35 🤯
Thomas F Wilson, eternal Maniac from Wing Commander III and IV, Best friend of Commander Blair, played by Mark Hammil
@@pdottie212fu she was born in ‘65. Movie released in ‘85. So she was under 20 when it was filmed.
George Mcfly is like most guys. Girls don't realize that. We like a girl but it's the scariest thing for us in school to even approach them. We aren't all chads.
Tom Wilson, who plays the bully Biff, is the nicest guy in real life. When they were filming the “car scene”, Tom would apologize to actress Lea Thompson (who played Lorraine) every take they did. She told him everything was fine and that they were just acting.
Oh that’s nice! Must be pretty disturbing to play something like that!
Tom Wilson was actually bullied horribly while he was growing up. He based Biff's personality on the bullies he had to deal with.
@@eviereacts❤❤😅very good film i from chile 😎✌
28:13 "She needs a cold shower ASAP." 🤣🤣🤣
"Another one of these damn kids jumped in front of my car!" I think Lorraine knew exactly what she was doing when she was changing clothes with the window open. Based on the kind of person she is revealed to be (no pun intended), she probably puts on shows regularly. And there's often a teenage boy in the tree with a pair of binoculars. And occasionally, they fall and get hit by grampa's car.
No one ever talks about this. That ‘another one’ is so telling
I couldn't tell whether it was Elaine or another woman in another house.
@@gerardfonzwho's Elaine? 😂😂😂
@@dustywaynemusic6297 lorraine
I never thought of it like that. Makes sense. Thanks.
28:52 Christopher Lloyd is so great in this movie. His facial reactions are priceless.
Also known for playing brain-addled-by-drugs "Jim" on Taxi tv show.
You can see a younger Christopher Lloyd in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" with Jack Nicholson.
And then - such a bad a** in the movie Nobody.
He was also pretty good in a small role on "Tremors: The Series"@@unity1016
He cracked me up😂
Marty ACCIDENTALLY goes into the past - he was just trying to escape in the car.
He was being shot at and wasn't thinking that far ahead. You can see he knocks the time circuit on with his arm when driving.
yessssss
@@markcall1982 yeah, but jennifer was hot. why not stay with her? next?
@@DaleWinarskiwhat? Try again dork
@@DaleWinarskiIn real life, that actress had a family emergency. Her mom was very sick. Claudia Wells couldn't return to make the next. I love Elizabeth Shue, but I think we ALL wanted the originals to fully return. Crispin did not return either. Marty's (party 2) dad was played by a different actor, too.
“Who’s that man to him?”
Yeah, Marty and Doc’s friendship is unexplainable. But that is part of the movie’s magic. That this friendship that really shouldn’t be, is one of the greatest friendships in all of cinema. And it’s just brilliant.
In an earlier draft of the script, Marty and Doc have a side hustle pirating and selling movies which is why Marty has such a nice camcorder. Studios obviously didn't like that plot point so it was cut leaving the origin of the relationship a mystery.
People don't have cool neighbors anymore? I knew a lady who would bring us Popsicles sometimes.
i always thought they meant to have their relationship because Doc knows Marty from the past. Of course that is in conflict with other things that happen in the movie. But still
Because of working together, they are friends in real life.
There's a subplot that's kinda hidden: George is left-handed. He's been forced to use his right hand since he was a kid, that's the main reason he's so physically awkward. Everything turned around for him when his right hand was being held and he was forced to use his left hook to deck Biff. That was his turning point, that was when the new "better" timeline started, when he decided that he was going to be himself from then on, he found himself when he made the decision to be a lefty.
but a left hook implies he's right-handed, or 'orthodox' in boxing terms
Yeah, it's very subtle but you can see it especially when he is writing and seems to cause pain. Not done now (hopefully), but teachers would force left handed people to use right even when I was at school! A Catholic Church thing about the Devil controlling the left hand (apparently)!😢
My father was born left handed in 1919. He was forced to use his right hand. He became ambidextrous .
@@helvete_ingres4717
No.
@helvete_ingres4717 is it just me or does George (about ready to punch Biff) look strangely like a very young Harrison Ford?
32:06 I busted out laughing at "Yo Mama." 😆🤣🤣
Truly a phenomenon of the 1980s.
Don't talk about this era of film without this classic.
1 of 2 films that starred a Michael J. Fox in the same year while doing the tv series, Family Ties and one of Christopher Lloyd's most iconic roles ever.
Blending the genres of science fiction, adventure and comedy in a way that was undenialble.
Changing one's past or even altering the future of one place or many people does mess with your head at first.
But it is all good fun and affected a lot of us as viewers, I watched this on video and was blown away by it at age 5,
Huey Lewis and The News with their 2 songs (Power of Love, Back In Time) are
true classics still great.
One of Spielberg's legendary productions, No.1 film of 1985 and Oscar-winner for Best Sound Effects Editing.
Wendie Jo Sperber (Marty's sister) passed away in 2005.
By all means, please react to the sequels as they are perfection too.
When you get to the end of 2, stop when you see TO BE CONTINUED because a huge spoiler of a trailer is shown for part 3 and its a bit much sort of destroying some surprises.
Fun fact... the mall was located at old man Peabodys old pine farm and the mall was named Twin Pine Mall but after Marty went to 1955, he ran over one of two pine trees and when Marty gets back to the doc in 1985, the sign for the mall read Lone Pine Mall. Lol
"If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious sh*t."
"Of course, if my calculations are off by even a little bit, you and I will be nothing but smears on the pavement."
It's ok. You can write "Some serious Shit!" 😂 She didn't bleep the S-word as some other reviewers do. 👏👏
27:11 I looked this up before. Technically skateboards existed but they were really only used by surfers in California.
This is one of the best movie scripts ever written. It's like a clockwork where every single piece has a function, and at the same time it's funny and emotional all the way down. And if that wasn't enough, it *holds up perfectly* almost 40 years later.
****IMPORTANT NOTICE***** At the end of part 2 it will say "TO BE CONCLUDED" that is the time to stop the movie.
It will spoil the next movie.
And know ahead of time Jennifer was recast because Claudia Wells was caring for her dying mother
@@DaleKingProfile no, thats in part 2. He's talking about part 3
@@lionhead123 I'm just saying that before she watches part 2 to know ahead of time that Jennifer was recast with good reason.
As a young lad, between this and Howard the Duck, I could not get enough of Leah Thomson in the 80's.
There are lot of details in the movie that are fun... for example, at the start of the movie, Marty goes to Twin Pines Mall to meet Doc Brown. When Marty goes back in time, he runs over Old Man Peabody's pine tree while trying to escape. Back in the future, Marty goes to the mall to warn Doc and the mall is named Lone Pine Mall.
If you like Back to the Future another one of my favorite movies you should react to is The Final Countdown (1980) The U.S.S. Nimitz goes back to December 6th, 1941. It's filmed on the Nimitz. It's like Top Gun meets Back to the Future.
Not really the same apart from time travel mechanic.
Good movie
@@leif712009 a great movie and on Prime
I liked that movie when I saw it in vhs back in the day. I'd say it's way more pure scifi than adventure like Back To The Future. I should try to track it down. I'd like to rewatch it.
@@jal051it’s on Amazon prime
If you want, you'll like the 2 others--the trilogy is so well made that you can even watch all 3 back to back, as a gigantic movie. Even if you can't post because of copyrights, at least watch them for yourself. That's what I did back in the 80's. Thanks and have a nice day.
Not originally intended as a trilogy. It was such a hit, they decided to make two more, filming II and III together, and releasing them separately.
Your facial expressions are priceless!
Looking forward to rest of the Back to the Future reactions.
This was the first movie I ever owned. Got it on VHS for Christmas in 1986 and its still one of the best trilogies ever.
Mine was Total Recall. It came with the VCR.
I love how they got Huey Lewis to be the one that told his band they were "just too darn loud." With a megaphone no less.
“I learned in Terminator that there were people’s addresses.”
44:36 Marty had the benefit of his friendship with Doc, who encouraged him to have confidence. Jennifer mentions reminds Marty of Doc's advice which Marty repeats to his father in 1955.
Yeah we watched the film...
...and which he then gets back from his father in the revised 1985.
@@Cheepchipsable 44:36
And Marty gave Doc confidence by showing him that he's eventually going to invent something that works.
“Hey Chuck!… This is your cousin!… Your cousin Marvin Berry!…” Chuck Berry got to hear his song Johnny B Goode before he even wrote it.
5:06 Good catch. That's a 70s adult film. The name is a joke on the old TV show "Love, American Style"
24:39 - The expression is "Make like a tree and leave(leaf)". But Biff's so stupid he screwed it up. That was the joke
They revisit that joke in #2
you don't look like a smiling person, but if someone makes you laugh, it will be the highest reward. Thanks for the reaction
She does when Marty comes back to life at dance.
Hey I smile all the time!!🫨
"Thin Man" 14:49 you are correct!
Everyone always skips this one for some reason.... 35:37 Johnny B. Goode, by Chuck Berry (When the guitarist, Marvin Berry, calls his cousin and tells him to listen to the song.)
At the end of the movie, Marty runs up to the Lone Pine Mall to witness Doc being shot 39:57, at the beginning of the movie Doc is at the Twin Pines Mall where he records the greeting about the Time Machine 7:28, When Marty first goes back to 1955 and is driving away he runs over a Pine Tree, and you can hear Mr Peabody yelling "My Pine, why you" 12:28 right before he shoots the mailbox.
22:41: It's supposed to be "make like a tree and leave." Biff is not the sharpest knife in the drawer...
And at some point between 1955 and 2015, someone explained it to him and he felt very stupid about messing up the phrase, leading to a rather amusing scene in Part 2...
There was a show in the 70s called Love, American Style that the pron is a reference to.
The look in Lea’s eyes when she pulls back from kissing Michael is perfect.
so without spoilers i can provide you with a little backstory: Marty McFly is the youngest child in the McFly Family, a family of Irish heritage who lives in Hill Valley, California (in 1985 the same year this film was released). Marty cares a lot about his girlfriend and reputation...but he is worried he won't be able to make something of himself. He is close friends with Dr Emmett Brown, a scientist who has spent many years working on a secret project...most people in Hill Valley think Dr Brown is a bit nuts because he has never managed to make anything that really works...
in short Marty and Dr Brown are the heroes, Biff is the villain and the other characters are important so long as you understand the relevance behind why they are there.
What many miss on their first viewing (and what you seem to have not realized as well) is that Marty didn't purposely go into the past. He accidentally switched on the time circuits (since the control is where the gear shift normally is) and was driving fast to escape the Libyans, which brought his speed up to the necessary 88 mph..
I remember the first time I saw this I thought it was about a guy who invents a time machine. After 20 minutes I'm thinking "hey, you've waited so damn long to show Doc Brown and you've spent all this time on Marty, why don't you just make Marty the main character?" And that's exactly what the film does.
The implication seems to be Doc Brown hired Marty at some point to run errands and maintain lab resources, but their boss-employee relationship grew into a friendship. Which would mean Marty's been doing this for at least a couple years before learning about Brown's time machine.
The script is so immaculate that nowadays UCLA uses it as a teaching tool in their writing courses. Alan Silvestri's score has so much classical energy that Nostalgia Critic put it at #1 on his Top 11 F**k Yeah Movie Themes. Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd are so iconic in their performances that even when they get ripped off in animated form (Rick & Morty) it's comedy gold waiting to happen.
28:15 "She needs a cold shower" is the most hilariously accurate description of Lorraine Baines I've ever heard.
32:07 made me bust multiple guts. Please tell me the source of your memes.
I love the look on your face when Biff tells him to make like a tree and get out of there.
At the beginning that guy with the three women listening to Marty audition was actually Huey Lewis, which was the guy who wrote that song and performed it in the 1980s
"I'm sorry, you're just too darn loud."
Hi Evie!😊 I always say you really need to watch this trilogy within a close time to each other, as they are very interconnected unlike many other trilogies.😉 It has come up, why is this old man hanging out with a high school student. That was the guy that made the music for the movie (Huey Lewis) telling him the band was too loud, with his own music.😉 Yep, George is the "Thin Man" from Charlie's Angeles. Skate Boarding started from kids taking the wheels off roller skates and attaching them to a wooden board. The "Twin Pines Mall" sign is now the "Lone Pine Mall" when Marty goes back to the future, because Marty killed a Pine when he went to the farm in 1955. Great reactions to your very first BTTF film, Evie!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏 Your kitty is adorable!
The Screenplay for this film was rejected from a number of studious due to the scenes of Marty and his Mom, but Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis didn't give up and knew they had something special . Today the movie is used in film schools to teach students how to write a perfect screenplay where everything comes together to tell a kick ass story.
3:48 Obviously this is a hard rock/metal version of the song we just heard when Marty was on his way to school..."The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis...who just happens to also be the teacher that tells the band that they are "just too darn loud."
Great reaction Evie...now you have to do parts 2 & 3. I have a feeling that you'll like them too. 👍
2:00 fun fact the legs walking through the lab are not Michael J Fox’s legs. They used a crew member to do it since they could only use Fox on the weekend and weekday nights. During the week he filmed Family Ties TV Show in the daytime. 3:59 the guy saying he’s just too darn loud is Huey Lewis who sings the song in the movie “Power of Love” and “Back in Time”. 18:57 technically Doc’s machine worked cause he said that Marty came from a distance which he did. 27:03 I bet he loved doing that to Biff after all the stuff Biff did to his family. 31:43 not to pure innocent woman she said she was. 36:54 yet they wait until their third kid to use the name Marty.
One of the best car chases in history. A VW bus chasing a DeLorian.
Biff was originally going to be played by J. J. Cohen, but at the time they were casting Biff, they had already settled for casting Eric Stoltz as Marty (since Michael J. Fox was seemingly unavailiable due to his working on the TV show "Family Ties") and Stoltz and Cohen were around the same height. The producers wanted Biff to be bigger than Marty to make him more menacing, so they cast the taller Thomas F. Wilson Jr. to play Biff and re-cast Cohen as the tallest of Biff's three sidekicks. Eventually, the producers realized that Stoltz wasn't working as Marty and made an arrangement with Fox that allowed him (at the cost of barely getting any sleep for several months) to play the part of Marty while still working on "Family Ties". As Fox is noticeably shorter than Stoltz, that resulted in a truly ridiculous height difference between Marty and Biff in the final version of the film.
Even Biff in the situation he finds himself in at the end seems happier in a sense. He is already nicer to everyone and seems to appreciate that.
Not everyone would bring back a package knowing its contents (the first edition of a book) and being almost as excited as the first people concerned.
This film really shows the importance of the environment in the development of a person regardless of their stage of life.
I strongly encourage you to watch the making of each of these films. There are lots of very, very interesting things to discover. For example, Michael J. Fox was absolutely not a drinker. This disgusted him and in the scene where he takes the bottle of Scotch from his mother, there was supposed to be water in it but the crew played a prank on him by replacing the water with real Scotch which makes the spit completely authentic because it was the real reaction of the actor when drinking the content that he did not expect.
34:25 An absolute monster. The way they use him in this is amazing because you underestimate how dangerous both he and the movie is. When he’s laughing after throwing Lorraine on the ground, it feels like an actual nightmare.
Such a great actor, too. Right after laughing at Lorraine, he has this slightly confused look as George is winding up to punch him, like he can't figure out what's happening because there's no way George McFly would dare hit him. It's so subtle, just like the array of emotions he goes through in about two seconds right after Lorraine slaps him in the cafeteria.
@@dianem8544when George is winding up to punch Biff, is it just me or does George look like a very young Harrison Ford?
@@johnmguzman7491 he definitely transforms in that moment. Squares out his jaw. Crispin’s underrated.
So funny that Lorraine put Martys pants on her "hope chest"
She didn't understand about the flying car. There's nothing to suggest that the flying car is from 2015. Doc didn't say he made only one time travel in 2015, so the car may therefore come from a more distant future.
But when they travel together to 2015 there are flying cars everywhere
@@white.lodge.dale.cooper Yes but she shouldn't know it as it's her "first time watching".
I've seen Back to the Future probably over 20 times and the scene with the lightning still stresses me out every single time.
I would say, as cool as it is as a concept, Doc couldn't have met Marty through the time travel. This is because we know by the Twin Pines Mall sign at the mall that Marty starts out in a timeline where he didn't travel to the past. After he travels to the past, the sign says Lone Pine Mall, indicating that he accidentally knocked over one of Mr. Peabody's pines in the past. Because he knew Doc from the beginning, and that was in a timeline with the Twin Pines Mall, the two of them had to have met and built a friendship in some other way.
Exactly. BTTF definitely doesn't follow the Terminator style time loop of the past being predetermined by a future event.
The DeLorean Motor Company (DMC) was an American automobile manufacturer formed by automobile industry executive John DeLorean in 1975. It produced just one model, from early 1981 to late 1982-the stainless steel DeLorean sports car featuring gull-wing doors. Its history was brief and turbulent, ending in receivership and bankruptcy in 1982. In October 1982, John DeLorean was videotaped in a sting operation agreeing to bankroll drug trafficking, but was acquitted at the subsequent trial on the basis of entrapment.
1. Cranky principal Strickland/James Tolkan also played the ship's squadron leader in "Top Gun".
2. The teacher that tells Marty, "I'm afraid you're just too darn loud" is Huey Lewis himself. (Heart of rock and roll)
3. Eric Stoltz was first cast as Marty, but he didn't play well with others and was fired. Some of his long shots are still in the movie.
4. The flammable material set on fire with the model exercise had to have been put there on purpose.
5. It's always fun to see how people react to the Marty and his mom car scene. 🤣
6. George McFly/Crispin Glover didn't like that the story ended with the family being prosperous.
7. Twin Pines Mall becomes Lone Pine Mall when Marty takes one out when he goes back to 1955.
8. IMVHO part II is the best of the trifecta.
9. If you haven't already checkout an OUTSTANDING movie where Christopher Lloyd plays the heavy you must do "Who Framed Roger Rabbit".
This isn't the first time I've seen someone say #4, but I don't understand why it's noteworthy. Of course it was written into the script and set up as a "special effect" of sorts -- like everything else. Do a lot of people for some reason first think it was an on-screen accident, like a blooper???
Just movie magic and worth pointing out because it's so obvious. @@bigdream_dreambig
14:36 The guy in the back with the brown jacket and white T-shirt is played by Billy Zane, who played Rose's fiance in "Titanic".
This was his first film role, IIRC.
10:00 That is a question that is never really answered, but I think Doc was the cool and crazy scientist that Marty looked up to as a kid. A mentor of sorts and just an old man he helped out sometimes. They're friends, no real reason needs to be there.
In the original timeline the sign said Twin Pines Mall. But when Marty came back to 1985 the sign said Lone Pine Mall because one tree was destroyed when the car hit one of the two trees when it went to1955! 😊😊😉😉👗👗👠👠❤❤👱♀👱♀
The big joke of the car parking scene is as an older woman his mom had ranted about how she "never did anything like that" when she was young. #Liar
A couple of minor things:
The mall is originally named "Twin Pines Mall." If you look closely, you'll see that Old Man Peabody had a pair of pine trees at the end of his driveway -- but Marty runs one of them over one of them. When Marty goes back to 1985, the mall is named "Lone Pine Mall."
There are a lot of small details like that.
This film creates a weird paradox that's never explained nor resolved. When Marty returns to 1985, he sees a version of himself go back in time. However, _it's not the same Marty_ . It's an Alternate Marty who grew up in the future that Original Marty created where his father is a successful, self-confident scifi novelist, his family is completely different, and Doc isn't killed by the Libyans.
The question becomes: what did Alternate Marty do when he went back to 1955? He might interfere with his parents' meeting, but to him it would be the way he'd always heard his parents recount the story: that a teenager was hit by Lorraine's father; that Lorraine was infatuated with him for a few days; and that this ultimately led to Biff's attempted SA of her and George clocking Biff.
Or would he have interfered at all, thus allowing Original Marty's timeline to come into existence?
This whole thing is entirely glossed-over and never mentioned. Over the years, fans have speculated that the most obvious thing is that Alternate Doc, now aware of everything Original Marty did, simply made certain that the plutonium was loaded so that Alternate Marty could immediately return to 1985.
However, that still creates a paradox, since there would then be _two different Martys_ who'd arrive back in Alternate 1985.
Don't think too much about it, because the logical implications get very, very twisted. It ultimately results in what scifi fans call an Infinite Loop Paradox, where multiple different Martys start showing up in 1955, and Doc's only reasonable response is to never follow through with the time machine at all.
In any case, the entire matter is totally glosssed-over. It's best to forget about it and enjoy the films, because dramatically they're very good. Indeed, the script for this film is taught in film school classes as the "perfect script" because of the way it's structured. There are entire textbooks written about it.
Another point: on October 15, 2015, fans gathered at the Puente Hills Mall, the shooting location of the Twin/Lone Pines Mall, to celebrate the impending arrival of the DeLorean. Sadly, no flying DeLorean ever appeared above or near it, but the fan celebration was well-covered in the press.
On a personal note: as an early Gen-Xer, I was the age of the teenaged characters when this film was released (though the actors are a couple of years older than me). I instantly fell in love with Lea Thompson and continue to be infatuated with her today.
I am impressed that she was able to transition out of ingenue roles, which is rare in Hollywood. Typically, actresses simply "age out" and are discarded, but Lea continued to act for some time. She's also a successful Broadway actress and has transitioned into film and series direction.
She remains beautiful, and is one of the few actress/directors her age who hasn't resorted to surgery nor botox nor enhancements. She's aged far better than I, and I really respect her not having chose the enhancement route.
No doubt if I were to ever meet her, I'd become a drooling fanboy and embarrass myself.
I can't figure out how Doc manages to get all the clocks in his house to be (exactly) 25 minutes slow, especially as he later has Marty recording what he names 'Temporal Experiment Number One'.
The actor who played " Doc Brown "was also on the TV show " Taxi " with Danny De Vito. Also in the movie " One Flew Over The Cookoos Nest " with Jack Nicholson and many other known actors.
The George Mcfly house is also the same house Michael J Fox movie Teen Wolf.
I’ve always thought perhaps Doc lures Marty into his friendship by inventing the giant guitar amplifier. That would explain the opening scene.
Everyone talks about George being a "peeping Tom", which is true but he's not the only one. If you listen to what Lorraine's father says when after he hits Marty with his car, it's something about "another crazy teenager" falling out of that tree. That's because Lorraine knows and doesn't pull the shade down. Enjoyed your reaction and especially your Torti kitty joining in near the end.
At the end of this movie where Jennifer gets into the time machine there wasn't any plan to do a sequel when this was made. It was such a hit that the writer, Bob Gale and director, Robert Zemeckis decided to turn it into a trilogy and film parts 2 and 3 back to back. Part 3 is the best in my opinion.
Yes, the "to be continued" banner was a throwaway gag.
Fun Fact: for one take, someone put real liquor in the hip flask Marty drank from during the parking scene. That spit take was his honest reaction. The director loved it, and kept it in the movie.
I love this reaction. It is always fun to see someone watching this movie for the first time. I think you hit on something I never thought of before. Where did Marty get his confidence? In my head-cannon Doc sees a young Marty early on in high school getting bullied or lacking confidence and helps him out in a situation and starts to teach him to have confidence. He tells Jennifer in the beginning of the movie, "It's like the Doc always says, 'if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything.'" A secret prequel of how Doc helped a young Marty learn confidence and to follow his dream of being a rock star. I mean, the amplifier was made for Marty by Doc indicating his support of Marty and the throwaway line of encouragement probably shaped Marty's personality. Not to mention Strickland telling Marty, "am I to understand that you are still hanging around with [him]?" So Marty has spent a lot of time over years probably going over to Doc's shack or maybe was friends with when Doc sold the property. Picture this:
A "Sold" sign with a young (12 or 14yrs) Marty riding a bike away from some kids (bullies) or with some kids where they treat him like they treat his Dad in the 50s. Marty stops and sees demolition of the last part of Doc's home after it had been cannibalized over the years. Marty sees some light coming from the shack and peeks in while his 'friends" think the guy is crazy and leave Marty alone. Doc is working on an "engine" to a car. Marty asks, "what's that?' Doc answers, "my dream. -can you hand me that wrench." Marty does and says, "I got dreams too. I'm gonna be a rockstar." -"Thanks for your help," an shews Marty away. Doc asks, "what is your name?" as Marty is going out the door. "Martin Mcfly, but my friends call me Marty." Doc looking away gives a wide-eyed shocked expression. Collects himself and turns to Marty, "You know if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything. I bet you will be a great 'rockstar.'" -"what's your name." "Doctor Emmet Brown, but my friends call me Doc." -"cool....Doc.... bye." Marty leaves. Doc goes to a journal and writes down. First meeting with Marty and pulls out a box from his desk with a bunch of ripped pieces of paper. Doc sighs and pulls out some tape...sighs a little more... then puts the box away. "I already know too much...."
That would explain their "second first meeting," but not really their first first.
I made my 20 yr old daughter watch this with me a few years ago (she had not seen it yet).
She said it was the best movie she had ever seen.
Doc is Marty's boss. Marty shops for supplies and films experiments for him
There are two drink jokes in the diner in 1955, first was Pepsi Free ( sugar free ), 2nd was he then asks for a Tab, which was the first diet cola that did not exist until 1963, eventually replaced with diet Coca Cola.
There was another "drink joke" of a very different nature that happened when filming the scene with Marty and Lorraine in the parked car. The flask they were drinking from was supposed to have water in it, but the crew pranked Michael by filling it with actual liquor! That was why he spat it out so quickly after taking a swig...
I'm a MASSIVE FAN of this Trilogy. BEST EVER!!!
Best movie trilogy of all time.
Love the faces you make, don’t even have to say anything, your faces say it all 😅
Didn't you know? This is actually based on the TRUE story of Gull Able. R.I.P.
Twin pines originally, after Marty hit the tree in 1955, the mall became lone pine.
"You put your mind to it and you can accomplish anything"
I have a notebook like George, too, in my pocket all the time even now. In the US Navy, it's called a pocket brain. Every time I get off watch, I have to report to the CO even at midnight which means he gets very little sleep. Six hours at most. One requirement instituted by my second CO was that each watchtander has to clean two valves in the engine room while at sea because we were in a submarine. Salt walter can leak causing verdigris to a green coating that can cause rust or make it hard to operate. It might require the valve to be repaired.
if i could go back in time and meet Evie, i would win.
Doc is that eccentric man at the end of the street, Marty is the curious kid. In the end, Marty invented skateboarding, rock and roll, induced the mayor, arranged his parents, and Doc knowing him in the past and adopts him in the present. Everything connected.
31:45 I have always love the line "Jesus, you smoke TOO??"
Her line after is a classic though. The ultimate irony.
I love this movie! I lost count of how many times I've seen it and I never get tired of it. Thanks for your reaction video. 😊
Awesome reaction of my favorite Back To The Future movie!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Christopher Lloyd was always so good at acting like that. He perfected his craft in the TV Show "Taxi" that also starred Dani DeVito, and a lot of other actors that I thought were big, but you likely wouldn't recognize. When it comes to the Doc Brown & Marti friendship, I always equated it to the fact that Doc fanned the musical flames in Marti by making amplifiers and such for him. Given that Marti didn't have a positive male role model in his life in that timeline, it stands to reason that he would have sought out filling that role with someone like Doc Brown, especially if Doc was always willing to help him and be there for him.
I know I'll get a lot of hate for this, but this is the only one of the trilogy that I watch. The other two just didn't do it for me. I'm glad you got to react to this film. There's a lot of older films that are worth your reaction. Another one from back then is "Eddie & The Cruisers".
My biggest problem with 2 & 3 is
SPOILERS
the introduction of 🐔without any foundation having been laid for it in #1. The only way I've been able to justify it for myself is to postulate that it was a ripple effect from the changes Marty made in his first time jaunt that ended up changing him too.
god i feel old now... loved this in my late teen years one of the best films of the 80's...
When you flipped "He's a peeping Tom" to "He's a curious George", that was hilarious. No one should forget that although George was peeping, it was Marty's Mom that pulled his pants off for a head injury while he was unconscious.
She just wanted him.....to be comfortable 😏
I remember waking up to realize my mom had done this to me, too, when _I_ fell asleep with _my_ clothes on. Of course, my age was only in single digits at the time.
And gropes his leg under the dinner table.
I don't have a 50's car, but I have a 1967, honestly even though they need more maintenance like general fluid top ups and oil changes, they're way simpler.
Way less to go wrong, I have a heater fan which blows air over a mini radiator using the engine coolant water below the dash, I have a speedometer, fuel gauge, oil pressure, and coolant temp gauge.
Nothing electronic, the most advanced part is the fluid suspension but even that was easy for me to get back up to pressure after sitting for 30 years with some new fluid and a hand pump off of eBay.
Nice reaction! Please don’t wait forever to eat the sequels. Also there’s no real future “predictions” they just made it as wild as possible.
Fun reaction Evie. I'm always shocked when someone hasn't seen this movie. Fun fact: Deloreans 80's futuristic look might make them appear fast. Unfortunately they were not. Sadly a stock Delorean only has 130hp, and as we know the car needs to go 88mph to time travel, but the the original speedometers in the cars only went up to 85 mph. So for the movie they replaced the factory speedometer with one that went up to 95mph. So it would atleast appear fast enough.
Also Evie you noticed the movie sign. Apparently the dirty movie (Orgy American Style) playing at the Hill Valley's Essex theater isn't just some set decoration. It's a real 1973 pornographic film starring
Actor George 'Buck' Flower, who plays the character
Red (the drunk Bum) in
Back to the Future. Wierd 😅
It wasn't in your Cuts but when doc came back in the time machine you noticed it now runs on recyclables not nuclear powered because he came from the future
Love how Evie comments and looks at camera❤
Evie! This was a boatload of fun. I know I'm repeating myself, but your reaction style is a lot of fun to watch, what with your looks and eyebrow raises and eye widening. I'm repeating myself because I have to tell you I started watching on some other sites and I couldn't take all the jokes and talking-talking-talking over the movie, oh, and explaining the movie. I just stopped watching at those sites. What was funny was your eyebrows when Marty turned to look at two girls in tights (which actually didn't make sense because Claudia Wells has to be the most gorgeous girlfriend character I've ever seen). It was also funny how it didn't register with you immediately how Marty got hit by the car instead of his dad.
Funny note...inside joke by the director. Remember when the guy in the gym with the megaphone told Marty his music was just too darn loud? That was Huey Lewis, who actually toured with his rock band, Huey Lewis and the News, playing music too darn loud. His music was on the radio that woke Marty up, also playing in the background while Marty was hitching rides on his skateboard on the way to school, and finally at the actual audition at the gym. That was all Huey Lewis music.
13:43 No address, at the very beginning we learned that his house burned down sometime between now and 1985. So he has a different address now.
She was asking about addresses in the 1955 phone book (yes, there was one), and that is how Marty got Doc's address in that time frame. However, I'm curious about when we learn Doc's house burned down. I don't remember that part, but that would make sense.
Everyone always thinks that the movie tried to predict the future? Um... it's just a movie. They wanted to tell an interesting, compelling story.
15:10 "Is that the... future... mayor?"
Hey. Well spotted.
Along with many other plot holes, being a car guy, I’ve always noticed problems there. 1st, when the dog goes back in time, the car must be an automatic as the dog can’t change gears and Doc does nothing on the remote to change gears. Yet, when Marty drives it, it’s a straight shift.
2nd, the car needs Plutonium to run for some reason when Marty stops outside Lyon Estates. It’s not out of gas, as they show that it had a zero count on the rad meter. Yet, when Marty drives it to come back, it must be running on gas.
Even with that, this is still one of the greatest movies ever made!
20:08 After watching the movie for the umpteenth time, the question occurred to me for the first time: how can you feed a signal from an 80s video camera into a 50s television? Were there already corresponding connections or adapters back then?
Awwww, your cat made an appearance at the end! He/she is beautiful! Coloring is amazing!
She says thanks😺
Fun great reaction Evie❤ ... Loved your reaction when you noticed George in the diner then Biff ... "ohh!!! Ugh!" BTTF 2 and 3 make this the perfect trilogy❤
The story before the film goes that Marty was being mischievous and broke into Doc's lab. Rather than call the police Doc offered him a job cleaning up the lab, taking care of Einstein, etc.
