Back to the Future ...

Moiraine · 01-07-2002, 02:24 PM

OK, this is just a little rant I have had on my mind for ages. I am a huge fan of the "Back to the Future" movies. Probably because I'm a huge fan of anything involvoing time travel. But, guys, don't you feel like me that Marty is a wee bit on the stupid side when he can't seem to be able to think that things are different when you are in a different time, again and again ?

Also, the scene in the 3rd movie, at the end, in the car, when Marty's GF reads the paper and it's blank, always makes me cringe. She looks so stupid ! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hey, why has back to the futur become a out of print (has been),
just like the 1978 "convoy" movie?

Do you mean the book or the films? If you mean the films then they're supposed to be coming out in DVD format in the not-to-distant future. Otherwise, I didn't know that there was a book version.

Moiraine, that scene is just a hook to enable Doc to say '..because the future is a blank sheet which has not yet been written' or something like that.

Loved it

Those were cool movies for their time.

Hmm. American Teenagers. At High school. In a film. Stupid. Yes.

I loved those films when they were first released.
I think the first one is the best - the acting got a bit wooden in the other 2, especially Marty's girlfriend and also his mother wasn't too good in the 2nd film, very overdone acting.

I agree. The first one was the best. I thought I was the only one who'd noticed the sloppy acting in the others.
