Marty McFly: What if I send in the tape and they don’t like it? I mean, what if they say I’m no good? What if they say, “Get outta here, kid. You got no future”? I mean, I just don’t think I can take that kind of rejection. Jesus, I’m starting to sound like my old man!
What’s keeping George McFly from sharing his work?

Back to the Future’s Terrible Newspaper
“It is equally unclear why the Telegraph’s editors would devote such extensive space to Biff Tannen gambling coverage.”
I finally, finally, finally realized what the Thief poster reminds me of. Thanks, Austin!
Haha, whoa!
No, as hugel says, “Back To The FUTURE Is Not Today: What are you people talking about?”
Here’s a video of all the time circuits in the series.
UPDATE: As my cousin Jeff points out, it’s actually fact-checking, not research, “and it has no place on the internets.” Ha!
n. the phenomenon of observing your parents interact with people they grew up with, which reboots their personalities into youth mode, reverting to a time before the last save point, when they were still dreamers and rascals cooling their heels in the wilderness, waiting terrified and eager to meet you for the first time.
In the years between Back to the Future and Back to the Future II, Michael J. Fox visibly aged and the actress playing his girlfriend was replaced by Elizabeth Shue. Thus, to show the closing scene from the first film as the opening of the second, it was necessary to completely reshoot it….someone has made a side-by-side comparison of the sequence so you can now needlessly critique how well Robert Zemeckis and crew recreated the scene. The audio is layered together as well, and for some reason hearing a duet of Docs saying, in unison, “Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need… roads,” is utterly hypnotizing…
I like the old Jennifer way better.
