Hey guys! Thank you so much for suggesting this trilogy and for tagging along with us through this journey. We've truly had such a great time and seeing it come to an end makes us a little sad. But these films will forever hold a special place in our hearts as we're sure has been the case for many of you. What did you think of the conclusion to this fantastic story?

@user-hv5wi6nd4i It’s perfect! So much attention to detail it’s insane. And no, this piece is for display only. You can still configure it back to “ground mode” but it doesn’t have a motor.
Fun fact : Marty learned the "bulletproof" trick from the movie "A fistful of Dollars", with Clint Eastwood, which Biff is watching while Marty walks in and cut the movie before throwing the remote in the bath where Biff is in the second part. Clint Eastwood doing the exact same thing Marty did in the short clip we can see in background.
Thomas Wilson is the best actor in this series. He plays SEVEN different roles and he NAILS them. 1985 jerk Biff 1985 timid Biff 1985A rich Biff 1955 young Biff 2015 old Biff 2015 Griff 1885 Buford
52:49 the guy that wants to race Marty is the same guy that gets him fired in 2015. By the way, that "actor" is Fle the bassist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
@@Bartheek_W_1983 Exactly, you could say that the entire trilogy is about Marty. It was all so that he could learn to make good decisions in his life and fix the bad future that awaited him. In addition to fixing his own present life and that of his family when he traveled to the past. In each film the topic is mentioned. That's how I see it.
My favorite fact: For a few hours, there are four DeLoreans in 1955. DeLorean 1: Marty goes back to 1955 in the original. DeLorean 2: Biff steals the DeLorean to take the almanac to young Biff. DeLorean 3: Marty and Doc go back to fix the new Biff timeline. DeLorean 4: The car is then wrapped and sitting waiting in Delgado Mine for stuck Marty.
The rules of time travel are a bit loose in this franchise, but I don't think DeLorean 4 exists in the mine until after DeLorean 3 is sent back in time by the lighting.
@@ari9638 Yeah, it's tricky to know. Is it, as you mentioned, the DeLorean wasn't in 1955 until it's struck by lightning? Or, would it have been possible for someone to bust the wall down a year before and stumble upon it? It's ironic that so many different stories have been told based on the BttF "logic" or "rules", but the film itself doesn't really get into the specifics. Personally I think that it's been sitting there. In the original, Marty changes the timeline and we see how beneficial it is to his family. In II, Future Biff creates a new timeline after he learns about time travel. Marty and Doc subsequently have to make sure that the branch doesn't happen and that it returns to the first altered branch, which they succeed at. It's why Biff doesn't remember anything about time travel at all, despite hearing about it in 55. So when Doc goes back to 1885, he's creating another alternate timeline. The events of III are similar to II, Marty goes back to prevent Doc's death and thus, fixing the alternate timeline.
80's movies hit so different... Robert Zemeckis, the writer of the trilogy actually said that the trilogy will never ever be remade, at least not whilst he's still alive.
Who would wanna watch a remake of the Back to the Future lol? The original trilogy is perfect. They could never improve on perfection. If they even attempt to make a remake then there will be riots.
I think that's the right call. I think someone could take a similar idea of going into the past and meeting their parents as teenagers and it could be okay. But I would never want to see them try to find a new Marty or Doc or anything.
Yep. And it's a good thing, too. II has always been the most iffy of the three movies. It just basically suffers from being the middle of the story. And they hadn't really planned on a trilogy and were stuck bringing Jennifer along when they would not have wanted to. So by having the releases so close together, it kept the enthusiasm from wearing off. If I recall correctly, they ran an ad for III after/during the credits of II to keep people excited and interested.
When Marty tells Doc "Clint Eastwood never wore anything like this.", you can see two movie posters next to him: "Revenge of the Creature" and "Tarantula". Both are real movies released in 1955 and feature Clint Eastwood in minor roles, all the way at the beginning of his career. The latter was very new, only released a mere two weeks before this scene takes place.
20:30 - *_(Not so) Fun Fact: Michael J. Fox actually got HANGED FOR REAL in this scene! That was a terrible mistake and the noose around his neck was choking him and the scene was only cut when someone on the set noticed that Michael was not "acting" like he was suffocating but actually was choking to death. So his hoarse voice after being taken down is again not so much acting as his throat being damaged from the stunt!_*
@@bhargavipba Welcome to 'Murica, where cost-cutting is a way of life for any business. This exact same behavior led to Alec Baldwin killing someone on set with a prop gun that was improperly loaded and not checked.
@@bhargavipba it's not possible to have 100% security & safety all time. No matter how many precautions are taken, how many equipment checks are done or how good the material is. Accidents can happen. Good that nothing worse happened to him though of course. I can also imagine that during the moment of filming this scene it is difficult to tell immediately that something is wrong
Not only did they do a great job considering these were made in the 80's, but they have stood the test of time. Whether you saw them when they were released or after 2020, they still are fun as hell.
The bulletproof vest was not only a callback to the first film, but a callback to the second film too, when Biff is watching “A Fistful Of Dollars” in his hot tub Clint Eastwood does the same thing in that movie. Love the constant references in this trilogy, masterful.
That unplugged version of "Doubleback" they dance to still hits. The original should've been just as iconic as "Back in Time" or "Power of Love" even: th-cam.com/video/y9zw_79tlgM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=y79KHJ1obpZ2gxVx
Bothers me so much that I know so much about literally everything but can’t communicate it to others. So thank guys and gals like yourself who beat me to it 😂
Tom Wilson is the acting MVP of this series. It’s pretty nuts how many distinct Tannen “variants” he plays. Truly bonkers. How is Mad Dog Tannen both freaking scary and ridiculous at the same time? 😂 Remember, Mr. Fusion only powers the time circuits and the flux capacitor. So keep that model gassed up!
Another fantastic callback from Part II: Doc telling Marty in 2015 that he went to a rejuvenation clinic, and that it "added a good 30 years to my life". That means that he's able to have a long and happy life with Clara, even though he was already decently "up there" in age by 1985. I adore that detail! Doc & Clara are one of my all time favorite fictional couples. They're so adorable together and the chemistry between them is incredible. 💜
And what's crazy is that we can do that now of you have the money for an organ transplant, replace a few things and we could stretch our lives at least 30 years too
You guys are right regarding sadness at the destruction of the Time Machine. It actually felt as much as a main character as the main cast, thus the grief is justified.
Base on my estimate, Marty McFly's entire trilogy adventure, he experienced roughly 25 days of time duration, probably more. 5 days in 1885 (part 3) 7 days in 1955 (part 1) 6 days in 1955 (part 2 and 3), 2 days to burn the almanac, 4 days to dig out the DeLorean, repair it and sent McFly to 1885. 2 days in 1985 (part 1) 3 days in alternate 1985 (part 2) 2 days in 2015 (part 2)
"Your future is whatever you make it to be! So make it a good one!" is a quote that has always stuck with me after i watched this movie, when i was younger.
Back to the Future is one of those movie trilogies which will never get old. I watched these movies for the first time as a kid in the 80s. I have seen them dozens of times but I can still watch them with the same amount of joy and enjoyment as for the first time. Truly a perfect movie trilogy.
One of my favorite bits of this entire series is that for Marty in his home timeline, all three movies take place between Friday at school and Sunday morning. The trilogy happens in a weekend for him. Freaking wild. Love it.
I once did the math on that and found that Marty spent about two weeks of his life traveling through time, but yes, the whole thing takes place in one weekend in 1985. Super trippy, super cool.
You know, George Lucas is famous for saying his Star Wars movies are like "poetry, they rhyme". But the Back to the Future trilogy actually does that concept PERFECTLY. Some of the "rhymes" are so obvious, like the skateboarding escape scenes, the Tannen-manure connections. But some are pretty subtle, like the flip of Marty being the pushy, and nervous one when Doc is talking to Clara in the workshop and she asks him to the fair, mirrors the first movie when Marty's mom is in Doc's garage askingMarty to the dance. There's dozens and dozens of these moments all through all three movies.
54:28 my personal theory is Doc used the Hoverboard corcuits to fix the Delorian in the mine then used it to get the parts to make the time train then just put the Delorian back
@@teewhyemm1130 your not thinking fourth dimensionally. There are 2 Delorians in 1885. The one Marty uses that has no gas he hides in a bear cave and the one hit by lightning that Doc burried in the mine near the cemetery. Doc cant fix it without circuitry. Cave delorian and that is what Marty uses to get back to 1985. Mine Delorian it will be there undisturbed from 1885 to 1955 After Marty leaves for 1985 leaving Doc an Clara behind. Doc has the hoverboard. Doc uses hoverboard parts to fix the one burried in the mine and uses it to time travel to get the parts to make the time train. Now Doc has the time train and the Delorian he just removes the hoverboard parts and burries it back in the mine for Marty to find in 1955. If you think about there were at least 4 Delorians in Hill Valley on the night of the lightning strike. 1. Marty's from Back to the Future 1 2. Biff's Delorian after he stole it from Marty and Doc Back to the future 2 3. Marty and Doc after they leave Biff's timeline 4. The one in the mine that Doc burries in 1895. Imagine in the 1980s you burry a $100 for your grandson not yet born to find but 5 years later you take that $100 invest in Windows stock the value doubles. You now have $200. You bury $100 for your grandson and you still have $100 for your own use. This what I think Doc did. He used the burried time machine to make another one and put the Delorian back.
Since y'all like the Easter eggs so much, Marty wearing the cast iron stove door was not just a call back to Doc's bulletproof vest in the first film, but, more specifically to a scene in a Clint Eastwood movie Marty watched in one of the movies, where Clint Eastwood did the same thing.
This trilogy has so much rewatchability because of the set ups and impossibly well sustained tension. It's rewarding watching them when you know what happens because so many bits of dialogue feed into things that happen later, like Doc talking about the next great mystery: women - before he has a love story. And I've watched these so many times, and I never fail to be white knuckled on the edge of my seat with the close calls. I just don't know how they do it. Always fresh.
One of the things I love that I don't see many often talk about is how important the 1955 storm is. Not only does it stop the clock, which gives the lady the reason to hand Marty the flyer, which gives him the idea for the original plan, but it also sends Doc back to 1885. Maybe Doc is right that it's a kind of nexus. A Time Storm.
Doc gave and gave and gave, never wanting for himself. In the third act, he got more than he could have ever hoped. Also, Tom Wilson is a genius. He played an incredible range of personalities, all of which had a strong presence, but different voices and attitudes.
Genius…what a cool addition to a collection or better said “artifact” lol…top 3 trilogy of all time for me…remember watching and having these on VHS growing up..might even still have em at my moms house…
That would be great but the problem with that is that you don't loose your memories. You just could watch your past you watching it for the first time 😄 (sry for bad english)
@@OfficialMediaKnightsthat’s what I love about reaction videos. I can’t experience a film again for the first time, but I can experience someone else experiencing it for the first time. There’s a joy to be found in that.
That Vistaglide camera system is what allowed Michael to play multiple characters in the same scene. One of the challenges of using that system is nothing on the set can move otherwise they have to start over. When you see them passing stuff to each other, it’s on a motorised rig so the movement is exactly the same each time. For the dinner scene in Part II, that took three days to film and everything had to be glued to the table. Just a few hours after they finished, a small earthquake hit the set and moved the Vistaglide.
@briantidwell651 Happy Birthday! We hope you had an amazing time. We're glad we got to entertain you during your special day! Thank you for the generosity and support. You rock dude! 🔥❤️
36:01 And there it is. The Doc is saying that Clara cannot come to the future with them because he doesn't want to disrupt the timeline...HOWEVER, she was supposed to die going over that cliff. The best way to keep the timeline proper is that Clara MUST go into the future with them. The longer Clara stays in 1885, the greater the risk the timeline gets disrupted.
I saw this movie when it released in theaters back in 1990. Movies wer still delivered on film back then of course. Well it just so happened to break right at the end of the explosion of the train crasing into the ravine after it pushed the Delorean back to 1985. It was such a bad break that they couldnt repair it, so they gave everyone in that theater free tickets to come see it again. Was right back there the next day and got to watch the whole movie over again for free just to be able to see the Delorean make it across the Bridge. I will always remember that. Super funny when you think about the placement of the film breaking right at the end of the massive explosion. I really enjoyed you guys reacting to this trilogy. Keep up the good work.
Love how emotional you guys get. I was born in 79 and 80s /90s movies are such a huge part of my childhood. This trilogy was one of my favs, and it always holds a special place in my heart.
You were absolutely correct with the statement that 2 had to do the "heavy lifting" for 3, as they both were written and filmed at the same time, and released half a year apart...All the setup for 3 had to be done in 2, so when 3 was released it could just go do it's thing and be the incredible ending that it was...They didn't want to stop the momentum in the theaters for 3, and interrupt it with all the expos...When we saw this in the theaters, 3 just played out perfectly...
I saw the original in the local cinema with my Scout Patrol when I was 10 years old. I was totally blown away. It was the coolest thing I'd ever seen. Of course I watched parts 2 and 3 when they were released in the cinema as well. Back to the Future is my favourite trilogy of all time, every part of it is masterfully written, filmed, and acted.
Have to applaud Denise's camera skills at the beginning 👏 Ari u looked like a happy kid 😂😂 Enjoy ur guys company every week here ❤ Thx for reacting to my childhood. Brings back so many memories. See u in the future lol
She killed it with that shot haha! Needed some help with getting it just right since I was busy holding my precious. Thank you for watching these alongside us!
@@AlexSwanson-rw7cvpossible, but it's certainly not part of the story that the train does stop. There are no cops investigating the accident, no screeching metal as the engineer puts on the breaks but it's not just this movie it's just about every movie with a train accident.
Definitely in love with this model! There’s so much detail I couldn’t even get all of it on camera. Everything and I mean everything is in there! Great! That means you will never miss us. We love sharing these with you guys. If we couldn’t share these experiences and talk about these movies what we do would be pretty meaningless to us. What keeps our inner fire going is getting to share the passion and learn from a community who loves to share knowledge ❤️
Funfact: the flux capacitor, as a prop and in name, has been used in more than just the Back to the Future movies. It was also used in the Buckaroo Bonzai movie (which had an ensemble cast of "unknown" actors). THIS IS NO SPOILER AS THE PROP WAS USED IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF THE MOVIE.
THAT DeLOREAN IS SO COOL!!! I would love to get something like that for my husband. Glad you found it and glad you enjoyed the trilogy so much. It's truly special. Great job guys!!
It's a company called "Hot Toys" Well known for their modelling and fidelity when it comes to movie models like these. They've done 3 different versions for each one of the films. This one is the "Back to the Future Part II" DeLorean which is my personal favorite. Some of the versions are hard to find but I believe the Part III iteration can be found a bit more easily!
Great. Thank you so much. May look at that for our anniversary this year. I know Hot Toys. I have a Scarlet Witch deluxe edition I got from Sideshow made by them. And also to finish my bragging😁, a 19 inch Cara Dune from The Mandalorian.
Right when Marty runs away from Buford after their first encounter in the saloon, in the street, keep your eyes on the left of the screen, you'll see for a few seconds a crew member in modern clothes running and pushing a rolling camera :)
"Clint Who?" "That's right. You haven't heard of him yet..." Marty points to two movie posters: Revenge of the Creature and Tarantula. Two of his first acting roles 😊
Fun fact: Frizbee toys (the plastic throwing disks) got their start in the 1800's as Frisbie pie tin company. People started throwing the tins (playing catch with them) and Frisbie changed the name and created the Frizbee toy. That's why they put in the frisbie scene.
I was driving around LA with my nephew showing him the city and we happened upon a Delorean decorated like the BTTF version. We obviously took pictures right next to it.
I remember going to the theater to watch the first part for the 25th anniversary, being a fan of the trilogy but not having the original experience (i was 9 at the first movie's release). And i remember a very special feeling while walking away from the theater after: gratitude. It was not joy, or excitement, or need to talk about the movie. It was gratitude, as in "master Zemeckis, thank you so much, master Gale, thank you, master Silvestri, what a score, thank you". That feeling stayed with me to this day even, every time i get to see these movies. Thanks for the mini ride down memory lane, and a hug from Chile!!
It's great, that this trilogy still works so well. A incomparable masterpiece. Your reaction shows that we all seem to have more in common than the conflicts and struggles around the world would have us believe. Peace.
I really want to leave this comment to say thank you to both of you for reacting this amazing trilogy ❤️ It has always been the greatest trilogy for me. My family used to have DVD at home and we watch this many times. I really don't want any people from Hollywood to touch this masterpiece because it's already great enough as it is. Once again, I'm enjoying your reaction and review for these movies. Thank you again. From, your viewer from Malaysia 😊
The filming location with the Indians was on the Navajo reservation in Monument Valley, AZ. My dad would have been apart of the Indians, but his hair was not long enough lol however my uncle and my dad’s horse were in that scene. 😊❤
Did you guys catch that the band at the festival is ZZ Top? 😆 This trilogy is a perfect trilogy to me. From where both Marty and Doc start and ends their stories, is perfect to me. And this might sound sacrilegious to some if not most, but the Tannen family line are some of the best antagonists of any trilogy, IMO. I don't use the word love often for movies, but I do love these movies. Also, I'd like to think that Doc was able to unlock inter-reality travel with that train!
Totally agree! The way they build their relationship little by little throughout all 3 films made it feel so organic and real. It also helps that the actors were also getting to know each other more and more so by the time the 3rd film concludes it's truly two friends saying goodbye to their characters. Such a wholesome moment.
I know its a little thing but...the idea of Doc reading a letter that he will one day write to a friend that he hadn't met yet, saying goodbye and marking the end for a friendship that hadn't yet started, and then reflecting on how touching that letter was...It's just so good! It's a letter that he knew he'd never get to read to Marty as he wrote it...yet he is the one reading it to Marty. There's just something whimsical and magical about it. That scene alone is why I can't be too critical for this flick. It's just too earnest.
This movie managed to get so many things right for the 2nd sequel. The setting change to the old west makes people comfortable with a recognizable time period. After the first 2 movies make the (biff) Tanner men evil but incompetent the 3rd movie makes the "bad guy" an actual threat. Lastly the focus away from Marty to Doc gives a welcome change and balance for the whole trilogy, and they stick the landing on the ending.
I was 8 when I saw part 3 in the movie theater. The train going into the ravine and explosion was the most epic thing I had ever seen to date at that time. Not saying it was the best movie explosion ever but for a kid it was absolutely epic.
As a bipolar manic depressive who stuggles with social anxiety movies are mostly my escapism (gaming is the other) & Ari & Denise your both fun entertaining charismatic reactors, it's a joy to watch you watch movies as you always give great feedback. I remember renting the first movie from the video store & it blew my mind & i fell in love with this awesome trilogy. Big hugs from England 🏴
Thank you so much for the massive compliment ❤️ We’re so glad you’ve been enjoying these. Head over to our second channel where we do some gaming. Maybe you could suggest a few titles 😃
So glad you reacted to and enjoyed this triology as much as all of us did when it came out in the 80's and 1990. Every few years you just have to binge watch all three.❤Thanks for choosing these.
I never noticed this before but when the camera rises up over the station showing the town being built it's nearly the exact same camera shot from Once upon a time in the west, I've never seen two shots so similar.
I talk with a good mate often and we always quote BTTF sayings. It will be silent on the phone for just a sec and i'm like "I darn shot that horse!" We bothe crck up everytime. We are both in our 40's and grew up with these films. Glad you enjoyed them all!
After part 2's cliffhanger, I made sure to be there opening night for this one! This is my 2nd favorite of the trilogy (part 1 will always be first). When you mix the Old West with time travel, throw in Marty, Doc, Mad Dog Tannen, and of course the do or die finale- you have the perfect ending to a fantastic trilogy!
This is my favorite part of the trilogy. And yes it's because it's a western. I loved that so much as a kid. The reason the hanging scene looks so realistic is that the support Michael J. Fox was supposed to be standing on, actually slipped away and he was actually being hung. The film crew didn't notice at first and thought it was just great acting, but thankfully realized before he actually was seriously hurt or worse.
This trilogy is special. I always loved it, and I've re-watched it SO many times, and still enjoy it just as much as the first time. Hats off to the actors, the writing, the director, everyone. A real shame how Michael J. Fox has had to suffer from Parkinson's.
Great trilogy reaction! You two wrapped it up perfectly. I was 8 when I saw the first one in the theater with my dad for the first time. It was instantly my favorite movie, and it still is. My dad worked in the entertainment industry. He worked on Family Ties a few times (MJF’s tv show in the 80’s), so he took me to see a taping of the show in February of ‘86. I got to meet Michael. He is such a nice guy. Being a short kid, he told me I was “his size.” I just melted. One of my favorite days of my life, next to my wedding and birth of my kids. I know we want more BTTF (even though it would be a bad idea), but I’m working on something that connects with it. No characters from it will be in it, but some Easter eggs though. Just need to hear back from the Bobs. Can’t do it without there blessing, or a without a lawsuit. I may be waiting a long time. Hopefully, you’re still around doing reviews when it does get green lit and made. Keep up the great work!
Only watched part of the intro so far, but just have to comment already. Damn dude, are you sure you're a writer and not a cinematographer? That Delorean segment is pure perfection! 😍
Haha! It’s funny you’d mentioned that. Started being more invested in the technical side first so learned cinematography and then slowly transitioned into writing. Denise got into writing and slowly transitioned into learning some of the technical aspects like cinematography as well. So now we can cover each other’s backs!
@@OfficialMediaKnights That is so exciting to hear! I believe you two are currently working on your own projects? How soon before we all can appreciate those? I honestly cannot wait, based on what I've been hearing from both of you over numerous reactions. I feel like you may be able to bring some much needed life back into this entire process which is meant to be inspiring and creative, but sadly has digressed into being almost purely based on shallowness greed.
@@OfficialMediaKnights Apologies, replying again, but I'm just taking this shot - any chance you'd consider posting a video here explaining how you achieved that segment? What camera did you use? Were all the focal changes done in camera or in post production? How did you move the camera so smoothly and consistently if it was so small and therefore couldn't be mounted on some sort of rig? Is it all handheld and then stabilized in post? How did you achieve that beautiful lighting? Just by eye or some sort of instrument? I have so many questions and would really, really appreciate knowing some of those answers!
Thank you so much for doing my favorite series of all time. You guys really make it fun, and it really feels special to see you experiencing my favorite lines and reacting just like I did. Doc's line at the end - "your future is whatever you make it, so make it a good one" - along with the music - oh my God! I'm glad you felt what I did, as well as so many other fans. Thank you again!! ♥
These films are truly special. We are so glad we got to experience them! This journey will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you for watching this with us, for your support and generosity. It means so much to both of us ❤️
Back when sequels were actually fun and meant something ❤ if I may… Robert Zemeckis made Welcome to Marwen, based on a true story… went largely unnoticed but it’s such a gem, please consider it! ❤
It's a bit of a mixed bag nowadays with sequels. Some of them are good, some of them are just fun and some are meh. Tends to happen when you start producing more and more content without really thinking about enhancing the experience.
Yes, 100% agreed! And another largely unnoticed gem from him is The Walk, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, also based on a true story. A truly beautifully made movie.
I mean... no. The vast majority of sequels back then were atrocious. There is a reason why they made that Jaws 19 joke in the second one and that was not because back then sequels were fun and meant something. There might have been a better batting average of good sequels than today, but the whole "just the same shit, but bigger" complaint came from "back then". The 80 are fun when you can pick and choose the good stuff from afar. Living trough them there was enough crap to fill you up untill you wanted to scream. The real deal wasnt Stranger Things.
@39:18 The little easter eggs throughout are what makes the film so great, like when Doc passes out drunk in the bar and the bartender says the wake up juice will take 10 minutes the clock tower clock can be seen outside the window showing 7:50.
Michael J. Fox about died in one of the noose scene takes at 20:16 - Basically he was tired after many attempts to shoot the scene and he didn't get his hands between the rope and his neck in time like he does properly at 20:21 on the closeup, so he was literally being choked and had to be brought back from being out for a while. He was choked for 30 seconds straight and it took the crew a bit to figure out what was going on.
Ooff...these scenes are quite dangerous! Glad he was ok after but it could've turned out real bad! Same thing happened to Brendan Fraser while filming "The Mummy". Hopefully the stunt crews have got this particular stunt figured out by now.
Thomas f Wilson (Biffs actor) is so underrated. What an amazing character actor in all 3 of these films. I know this is considered the worst film in the trilogy but I low key think it’s my favorite. So quotable and heartwarming.
I saw this in theaters in 85. My Dad took my older brother and I to watch it. I was 11 and remember that we all loved it especially my Dad. It was one of the only times he went to see a movie with us.
You guys are fantastic reactors and post commentary! Few nuggets you may've missed: The band in BTTF 3 at the festival were a call out to ZZ Top, that's why Marty got that tripped out look on his face. 2) That set up in BTTF 2 when Doc said "Time to discover the other great mystery of the universe.....women" for #3. P.S. I LOVE that you guys pay respect to the special effects in the 1980's. Film makers nowadays rely so heavily on technology, that seeing good effects in the 80's surprises youngsters. They had to find tricks to getting to that end, and did it well. My biggest laugh about reactors, is how much they underestimate the 1980's being so long ago, and how advanced it actually was.
I miss 80's and 90's movies. The nostalgia, creativity, originality, and storytelling cannot be duplicated. There's a reason why these movies are so rewatchable compared to the more recent movies. Also a reason why so many movies are just remaking 80's movies. Creativity in Hollywood no longer exists and it's a shame.
I’ve been thinking about watching this trilogy lately, but now that I’ve seen it again for the first time through your eyes I don’t feel the need. So thank you. It’s been fun.
A joy experiencing this whole trilogy with you, and you had the privilege of not seeing the trailer for this attached to the Part II, that was a good call.
I'm so glad to hear that you guys enjoyed the trilogy. I've said it before, yours are the best reactions to this trilogy that I've seen. Fun fact, the band at the festival was ZZ TOP. They featured their famous guitar twirl.
Just one of the all-time trilogies. People like to rag on the 2nd and 3rd films, but to have three different tones in a trilogy and still have it all connected and emotionally satisfying and thrilling? That's a rare thing. These movies will never get old.
The final triumphant heartfelt swelling of the theme when Marty opens the photo Doc hands him. Ugh. I don't know anything about music theory but that iteration of the theme just fucks me up so hard in the best way.
the crazy thing is we(people who saw this in the 80's at the theater) didnt realize how great this movie would be until decades later watching it with our kids, friends, and people like you reacting to it(whom many consider friends). Its wild because I can now watch it from a different pair of eyeballs and see the joy you have for it the way we did back when it premiered. Thank you.
Love the model. Can you imagine if theyd stuck with their original scripts time machine? Instead of a kick ass cool car youd have a model of a REFRIGERATOR! lol
Zemeckis' shtick is irony. It runs through all of his films, and this one is the best example of that. Also the cinematographer Dean Cundy (Jurassic Park, The Thing) is the festival photographer. ZZ Top is the band at the festival, and Flea from the Red Hot Chilipeppers plays Needles. Everyone always goes nuts with Doc having kids later in life, but in Part 2 he says he had a blood and skin transfusion and added 30 years to his life (when he's peeling his face off but looks the exact same). A pay-off gag for the ending scene.
I thought Doc added 30 years to himself with that skin mask, and the joke was that he looked the same without it. I don't think he added 30 years to his look, because he looks the same throughout the entire trilogy. He's not meant to be 30 years younger than he actually is.
@@alexp601 Yeah, that's how I understood the joke too. But he does mention a futuristic transfusion of everything so he basically added an extra 30 years, despite looking the exact same.
@@lwoodesign hmmm that would be interesting if the Doc actually was, biologically, 30 years younger, while keeping the same external appearance. I don’t think I’ve heard that mentioned in any discussions about this trilogy. It’s a cool idea though
@@alexp601 - it plays into Zemeckis’ ironic humor. Kind of a cheap feel-good “why not” throw away moment that pays off in this movie. At least that was my take away. I could be wrong, but I think it fits into the cooky scientist schtick they wrote for him.
Your intro was dramatic, grandiose, over-the-top and a few more words that only exist in other languages... ...and I loved it. It's great to see a passion like that.
Hey guys! Thank you so much for suggesting this trilogy and for tagging along with us through this journey. We've truly had such a great time and seeing it come to an end makes us a little sad. But these films will forever hold a special place in our hearts as we're sure has been the case for many of you. What did you think of the conclusion to this fantastic story?

Great Scott, that die-cast BF3 Delorean you brought is a thing of beauty, is it radio controlled?
Very nicely shot presentation of your "investment". 😎👍
@easinstrickland6372 Aside from a little Grogu we don’t have anything Star Wars related in the studio…YET
@user-hv5wi6nd4i It’s perfect! So much attention to detail it’s insane. And no, this piece is for display only. You can still configure it back to “ground mode” but it doesn’t have a motor.
@imajinallthepurple Thank you! ❤️
Fun fact : Marty learned the "bulletproof" trick from the movie "A fistful of Dollars", with Clint Eastwood, which Biff is watching while Marty walks in and cut the movie before throwing the remote in the bath where Biff is in the second part. Clint Eastwood doing the exact same thing Marty did in the short clip we can see in background.
Yeah came on to say that, lots of Chekhov's guns setup in second film for the third, like the gun game in cafe 80's.
They should definitely watch the Dollars Trilogy next if they haven't already!
@@tyhar7493 The trilogy itself is 101 how to Setup/PayOff in movies.
The writing was so solid across all 3 movies. Still no holes. Still no mistakes.
I was just about to make the same comment.
That was a nice bit of foreshadowing in the second movie.
Fun fact. My uncle was the lead Indian on the horse in that scene where Marty goes back in time. RIP cliff brown.
@kacywhite7249 Wow that's cool 😎
Amazing 👏
@DewiSant-o3y No dipshit were Native American. First Nation people's. From the Navajo Nation. Don't need no fuccin green card!
the original Mr Brown?
Thomas Wilson is the best actor in this series. He plays SEVEN different roles and he NAILS them.
1985 jerk Biff
1985 timid Biff
1985A rich Biff
1955 young Biff
2015 old Biff
2015 Griff
1885 Buford
Agreed. You can't have heroes without good villains, and he played them all !
Thomas Wilson also learned ride a horse and throw lariat for BTTF3. he also did majority of stunts and horse riding himself.
According to some sources he also voiced 1955 Biff's grandma when she was yelling at him offscreen.
A true legend
True he was An ace ❤❤ love him
52:49 the guy that wants to race Marty is the same guy that gets him fired in 2015. By the way, that "actor" is Fle the bassist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Flea is groovy!)
Isn't he an anarchist?
@@emsleywyatt3400random much
the first one is marty's story. the second one is biff's. this one is doc's. perfect trilogy ❤
The first movie is George's story.
@@Bartheek_W_1983you are correct, i was half-asleep when i made that comment! marty is a mindful observer of all of their tales.
@@Bartheek_W_1983 Exactly, you could say that the entire trilogy is about Marty. It was all so that he could learn to make good decisions in his life and fix the bad future that awaited him. In addition to fixing his own present life and that of his family when he traveled to the past. In each film the topic is mentioned. That's how I see it.
My favorite fact: For a few hours, there are four DeLoreans in 1955.
DeLorean 1: Marty goes back to 1955 in the original.
DeLorean 2: Biff steals the DeLorean to take the almanac to young Biff.
DeLorean 3: Marty and Doc go back to fix the new Biff timeline.
DeLorean 4: The car is then wrapped and sitting waiting in Delgado Mine for stuck Marty.
The rules of time travel are a bit loose in this franchise, but I don't think DeLorean 4 exists in the mine until after DeLorean 3 is sent back in time by the lighting.
@@ari9638 Yeah, it's tricky to know. Is it, as you mentioned, the DeLorean wasn't in 1955 until it's struck by lightning? Or, would it have been possible for someone to bust the wall down a year before and stumble upon it? It's ironic that so many different stories have been told based on the BttF "logic" or "rules", but the film itself doesn't really get into the specifics.
Personally I think that it's been sitting there. In the original, Marty changes the timeline and we see how beneficial it is to his family. In II, Future Biff creates a new timeline after he learns about time travel. Marty and Doc subsequently have to make sure that the branch doesn't happen and that it returns to the first altered branch, which they succeed at. It's why Biff doesn't remember anything about time travel at all, despite hearing about it in 55. So when Doc goes back to 1885, he's creating another alternate timeline. The events of III are similar to II, Marty goes back to prevent Doc's death and thus, fixing the alternate timeline.
80's movies hit so different...
Robert Zemeckis, the writer of the trilogy actually said that the trilogy will never ever be remade, at least not whilst he's still alive.
This entire trilogy was truly something special ❤️
He's even extended it to his kids. So as long as the Zemeckis name lives, BTTF will not be remade.
@@dnllrnt Thank Zemeckis.
Who would wanna watch a remake of the Back to the Future lol? The original trilogy is perfect. They could never improve on perfection. If they even attempt to make a remake then there will be riots.
I think that's the right call.
I think someone could take a similar idea of going into the past and meeting their parents as teenagers and it could be okay.
But I would never want to see them try to find a new Marty or Doc or anything.
The black and white picture at the end, reading "To Marty Partners in time", always gets me. I love their friendship!
Parts II & III were released only six months apart from each other, and I can remember seeing both in the theater when they came out.
Same!
That’s so cool! Glad they didn’t make you guys wait over a year for the conclusion haha
Lucky sod
I'm so jealous.
Yep.
And it's a good thing, too.
II has always been the most iffy of the three movies. It just basically suffers from being the middle of the story. And they hadn't really planned on a trilogy and were stuck bringing Jennifer along when they would not have wanted to.
So by having the releases so close together, it kept the enthusiasm from wearing off.
If I recall correctly, they ran an ad for III after/during the credits of II to keep people excited and interested.
When Marty tells Doc "Clint Eastwood never wore anything like this.", you can see two movie posters next to him: "Revenge of the Creature" and "Tarantula". Both are real movies released in 1955 and feature Clint Eastwood in minor roles, all the way at the beginning of his career. The latter was very new, only released a mere two weeks before this scene takes place.
Came down to see if anyone mentioned this! It's such a great little detail.
That’s a great little Easter egg that I never knew!
I never knew that! Interesting! 😊
20:30 - *_(Not so) Fun Fact: Michael J. Fox actually got HANGED FOR REAL in this scene! That was a terrible mistake and the noose around his neck was choking him and the scene was only cut when someone on the set noticed that Michael was not "acting" like he was suffocating but actually was choking to death. So his hoarse voice after being taken down is again not so much acting as his throat being damaged from the stunt!_*
That's just so irresponsible to not make sure that the actor is safe
@@bhargavipba Welcome to 'Murica, where cost-cutting is a way of life for any business. This exact same behavior led to Alec Baldwin killing someone on set with a prop gun that was improperly loaded and not checked.
@@bhargavipba it's not possible to have 100% security & safety all time. No matter how many precautions are taken, how many equipment checks are done or how good the material is. Accidents can happen. Good that nothing worse happened to him though of course. I can also imagine that during the moment of filming this scene it is difficult to tell immediately that something is wrong
Unfortunately the accident with the noose was likely the catalyst for his condition.
@@StevenJShow That's not likely. His condition is not caused by trauma like that. Nevertheless, it's an awful thing to have had happened
Not only did they do a great job considering these were made in the 80's, but they have stood the test of time. Whether you saw them when they were released or after 2020, they still are fun as hell.
Quite fitting that they stood the test of _time_
Now THAT... is a proper introduction to one of the finest major motion films in cinema history. Bravo! Media Knights!
Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
The bulletproof vest was not only a callback to the first film, but a callback to the second film too, when Biff is watching “A Fistful Of Dollars” in his hot tub Clint Eastwood does the same thing in that movie. Love the constant references in this trilogy, masterful.
The DeLorean left at the clock tower at the end of part 1.... plot twist/hole.....
@@kylereese4822 Not so. They returned and got it, and Doc Brown went to the future as Marty arrived home.
Came here to point out this little factoid. My work is done
ZZ Top as the band playing at the town festival is too funny. 😂
I was just about to post about ZZ Top being the band playing at the festival
That unplugged version of "Doubleback" they dance to still hits. The original should've been just as iconic as "Back in Time" or "Power of Love" even:
th-cam.com/video/y9zw_79tlgM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=y79KHJ1obpZ2gxVx
Bothers me so much that I know so much about literally everything but can’t communicate it to others. So thank guys and gals like yourself who beat me to it 😂
Tom Wilson is the acting MVP of this series. It’s pretty nuts how many distinct Tannen “variants” he plays. Truly bonkers. How is Mad Dog Tannen both freaking scary and ridiculous at the same time? 😂
Remember, Mr. Fusion only powers the time circuits and the flux capacitor. So keep that model gassed up!
"Marty, why don't you show them rock and roll" as ZZ Top plays live. 😵💫
I lost it right when they said that. 🤣😂🤣
Another fantastic callback from Part II: Doc telling Marty in 2015 that he went to a rejuvenation clinic, and that it "added a good 30 years to my life".
That means that he's able to have a long and happy life with Clara, even though he was already decently "up there" in age by 1985. I adore that detail!
Doc & Clara are one of my all time favorite fictional couples. They're so adorable together and the chemistry between them is incredible. 💜
And what's crazy is that we can do that now of you have the money for an organ transplant, replace a few things and we could stretch our lives at least 30 years too
whenever someone talks about running this is my go to response- "run for fun? What the hell kinda fun is that!?!"
Funny enough... I had this reaction on while on the treadmill this morning... when that line came up I started laughing 😂
This couch potato agrees😂
That actor Pat Buttram is the voice actor for the Sheriff of Nottingham in Disney's animated Robinhood (1973).
People we're so used to waiting 4-5+ years for sequels back in the day this coming out just a year after the second must have been such a treat.
You guys are right regarding sadness at the destruction of the Time Machine. It actually felt as much as a main character as the main cast, thus the grief is justified.
Base on my estimate, Marty McFly's entire trilogy adventure, he experienced roughly 25 days of time duration, probably more.
5 days in 1885 (part 3)
7 days in 1955 (part 1)
6 days in 1955 (part 2 and 3), 2 days to burn the almanac, 4 days to dig out the DeLorean, repair it and sent McFly to 1885.
2 days in 1985 (part 1)
3 days in alternate 1985 (part 2)
2 days in 2015 (part 2)
And he suffered through three separate head injuries during that time.... most definitely some brain damage
@@michaeljacyna1973 That is so true! I never thought about that aspect before.
I love this
@@michaeljacyna1973 _"The easy way..."_
Jennifer had only about a day during that time
"Your future is whatever you make it to be! So make it a good one!" is a quote that has always stuck with me after i watched this movie, when i was younger.
Back to the Future is one of those movie trilogies which will never get old. I watched these movies for the first time as a kid in the 80s. I have seen them dozens of times but I can still watch them with the same amount of joy and enjoyment as for the first time. Truly a perfect movie trilogy.
One of my favorite bits of this entire series is that for Marty in his home timeline, all three movies take place between Friday at school and Sunday morning. The trilogy happens in a weekend for him. Freaking wild. Love it.
I once did the math on that and found that Marty spent about two weeks of his life traveling through time, but yes, the whole thing takes place in one weekend in 1985. Super trippy, super cool.
Must feel weird to be back at school at monday, being regular kid again
You know, George Lucas is famous for saying his Star Wars movies are like "poetry, they rhyme".
But the Back to the Future trilogy actually does that concept PERFECTLY. Some of the "rhymes" are so obvious, like the skateboarding escape scenes, the Tannen-manure connections. But some are pretty subtle, like the flip of Marty being the pushy, and nervous one when Doc is talking to Clara in the workshop and she asks him to the fair, mirrors the first movie when Marty's mom is in Doc's garage askingMarty to the dance. There's dozens and dozens of these moments all through all three movies.
54:28 my personal theory is Doc used the Hoverboard corcuits to fix the Delorian in the mine then used it to get the parts to make the time train then just put the Delorian back
Great theory!
Why didn't he use the fuel line and fuel from the DeLorean in the mine to fix the DeLorean Marty arrived in ? They could have just driven out of 1885.
@@barrystrydom8100Doc would have drained the fluids when storing the car in the mine.
There is no DeLorean in the mine. They used the DeLorean in the mine to send Marty back to 1985. That's why Doc wanted Marty to destroy it.
@@teewhyemm1130 your not thinking fourth dimensionally. There are 2 Delorians in 1885. The one Marty uses that has no gas he hides in a bear cave and the one hit by lightning that Doc burried in the mine near the cemetery. Doc cant fix it without circuitry.
Cave delorian and that is what Marty uses to get back to 1985.
Mine Delorian it will be there undisturbed from 1885 to 1955
After Marty leaves for 1985 leaving Doc an Clara behind. Doc has the hoverboard. Doc uses hoverboard parts to fix the one burried in the mine and uses it to time travel to get the parts to make the time train. Now Doc has the time train and the Delorian he just removes the hoverboard parts and burries it back in the mine for Marty to find in 1955.
If you think about there were at least 4 Delorians in Hill Valley on the night of the lightning strike.
1. Marty's from Back to the Future 1
2. Biff's Delorian after he stole it from Marty and Doc Back to the future 2
3. Marty and Doc after they leave Biff's timeline
4. The one in the mine that Doc burries in 1895.
Imagine in the 1980s you burry a $100 for your grandson not yet born to find but 5 years later you take that $100 invest in Windows stock the value doubles. You now have $200. You bury $100 for your grandson and you still have $100 for your own use. This what I think Doc did. He used the burried time machine to make another one and put the Delorian back.
I remember when 7/11 had arcade machines, the one down the street from where I grew up had Galaga and Street Fighter. Those were the days...
Since y'all like the Easter eggs so much, Marty wearing the cast iron stove door was not just a call back to Doc's bulletproof vest in the first film, but, more specifically to a scene in a Clint Eastwood movie Marty watched in one of the movies, where Clint Eastwood did the same thing.
Biff watched this exact scene in his penthouse in part two when Marty walked in
This trilogy has so much rewatchability because of the set ups and impossibly well sustained tension. It's rewarding watching them when you know what happens because so many bits of dialogue feed into things that happen later, like Doc talking about the next great mystery: women - before he has a love story. And I've watched these so many times, and I never fail to be white knuckled on the edge of my seat with the close calls. I just don't know how they do it. Always fresh.
One of the things I love that I don't see many often talk about is how important the 1955 storm is. Not only does it stop the clock, which gives the lady the reason to hand Marty the flyer, which gives him the idea for the original plan, but it also sends Doc back to 1885. Maybe Doc is right that it's a kind of nexus. A Time Storm.
Doc gave and gave and gave, never wanting for himself. In the third act, he got more than he could have ever hoped.
Also, Tom Wilson is a genius. He played an incredible range of personalities, all of which had a strong presence, but different voices and attitudes.
Nice DeLorean! Now you can go back to 2024 and watch the Back to the Future movies for the first time......again.
Haha! Exactly! There’s a few films on the channel we’d love to go back in time and experience for the first time again 😄
he has to wait for the reduction machine so that he can sit in it 😂
Genius…what a cool addition to a collection or better said “artifact” lol…top 3 trilogy of all time for me…remember watching and having these on VHS growing up..might even still have em at my moms house…
That would be great but the problem with that is that you don't loose your memories. You just could watch your past you watching it for the first time 😄 (sry for bad english)
@@OfficialMediaKnightsthat’s what I love about reaction videos. I can’t experience a film again for the first time, but I can experience someone else experiencing it for the first time. There’s a joy to be found in that.
That Vistaglide camera system is what allowed Michael to play multiple characters in the same scene. One of the challenges of using that system is nothing on the set can move otherwise they have to start over. When you see them passing stuff to each other, it’s on a motorised rig so the movement is exactly the same each time. For the dinner scene in Part II, that took three days to film and everything had to be glued to the table. Just a few hours after they finished, a small earthquake hit the set and moved the Vistaglide.
17:12 Marty would be off by about a decade for that refreshment. Pepsi wasn't invented until 1893, and it was called Brad's Drink.
The perfect film trilogy. That sense of completion is why I am so glad Zemeckis won't add to or reboot this story. Can't mess with perfection!
Thank you guys SO MUCH for this… it was a PERFECT birthday gift… one of the defining movies/franchises of my life… YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST🔥
@briantidwell651 Happy Birthday! We hope you had an amazing time. We're glad we got to entertain you during your special day! Thank you for the generosity and support. You rock dude! 🔥❤️
Happy bday
36:01 And there it is. The Doc is saying that Clara cannot come to the future with them because he doesn't want to disrupt the timeline...HOWEVER, she was supposed to die going over that cliff. The best way to keep the timeline proper is that Clara MUST go into the future with them. The longer Clara stays in 1885, the greater the risk the timeline gets disrupted.
I saw this movie when it released in theaters back in 1990. Movies wer still delivered on film back then of course. Well it just so happened to break right at the end of the explosion of the train crasing into the ravine after it pushed the Delorean back to 1985. It was such a bad break that they couldnt repair it, so they gave everyone in that theater free tickets to come see it again. Was right back there the next day and got to watch the whole movie over again for free just to be able to see the Delorean make it across the Bridge. I will always remember that. Super funny when you think about the placement of the film breaking right at the end of the massive explosion. I really enjoyed you guys reacting to this trilogy. Keep up the good work.
Love how emotional you guys get. I was born in 79 and 80s /90s movies are such a huge part of my childhood. This trilogy was one of my favs, and it always holds a special place in my heart.
'78 here. I agree completely. I watch 80s & 90s movies again and again.
You were absolutely correct with the statement that 2 had to do the "heavy lifting" for 3, as they both were written and filmed at the same time, and released half a year apart...All the setup for 3 had to be done in 2, so when 3 was released it could just go do it's thing and be the incredible ending that it was...They didn't want to stop the momentum in the theaters for 3, and interrupt it with all the expos...When we saw this in the theaters, 3 just played out perfectly...
I saw the original in the local cinema with my Scout Patrol when I was 10 years old.
I was totally blown away. It was the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
Of course I watched parts 2 and 3 when they were released in the cinema as well.
Back to the Future is my favourite trilogy of all time, every part of it is masterfully written, filmed, and acted.
Have to applaud Denise's camera skills at the beginning 👏 Ari u looked like a happy kid 😂😂 Enjoy ur guys company every week here ❤ Thx for reacting to my childhood. Brings back so many memories. See u in the future lol
She killed it with that shot haha! Needed some help with getting it just right since I was busy holding my precious. Thank you for watching these alongside us!
Who framed Roger rabbit is my next pick! 🎉
I love how in EVERY movie when a train destroys a car on the tracks it just keeps going as if, "well, somebody else will clean up that mess."
I assume they do stop... it just takes them a while to do so.
"At 55mph it takes the average train 1 to 1.5miles to stop."
@@AlexSwanson-rw7cvpossible, but it's certainly not part of the story that the train does stop. There are no cops investigating the accident, no screeching metal as the engineer puts on the breaks but it's not just this movie it's just about every movie with a train accident.
I think the one train I saw stopped to check if someone is ok, is on The Iron Giant
So true! One of the biggest plot holes in the trilogy.. But BTTF is a masterpiece even though you have to suspend disbelief a lot.
Great Scott! That model is awesome! That detail is great. I’ll miss you guys when you make it so big that you have your own website with a pay wall.
Definitely in love with this model! There’s so much detail I couldn’t even get all of it on camera. Everything and I mean everything is in there! Great! That means you will never miss us. We love sharing these with you guys. If we couldn’t share these experiences and talk about these movies what we do would be pretty meaningless to us. What keeps our inner fire going is getting to share the passion and learn from a community who loves to share knowledge ❤️
@@OfficialMediaKnights If you guys liked Michael J. Fox, you might look into Doc Hollywood. I don’t usually like romances, but I do like Fox.
@@OfficialMediaKnights What is this model please?
Funfact: the flux capacitor, as a prop and in name, has been used in more than just the Back to the Future movies. It was also used in the Buckaroo Bonzai movie (which had an ensemble cast of "unknown" actors).
THIS IS NO SPOILER AS THE PROP WAS USED IN THE FIRST 10 MINUTES OF THE MOVIE.
THAT DeLOREAN IS SO COOL!!! I would love to get something like that for my husband. Glad you found it and glad you enjoyed the trilogy so much. It's truly special. Great job guys!!
It's a company called "Hot Toys" Well known for their modelling and fidelity when it comes to movie models like these. They've done 3 different versions for each one of the films. This one is the "Back to the Future Part II" DeLorean which is my personal favorite. Some of the versions are hard to find but I believe the Part III iteration can be found a bit more easily!
Great. Thank you so much. May look at that for our anniversary this year.
I know Hot Toys. I have a Scarlet Witch deluxe edition I got from Sideshow made by them. And also to finish my bragging😁, a 19 inch Cara Dune from The Mandalorian.
Right when Marty runs away from Buford after their first encounter in the saloon, in the street, keep your eyes on the left of the screen, you'll see for a few seconds a crew member in modern clothes running and pushing a rolling camera :)
"Clint Who?"
"That's right. You haven't heard of him yet..."
Marty points to two movie posters: Revenge of the Creature and Tarantula. Two of his first acting roles 😊
Fun fact: Frizbee toys (the plastic throwing disks) got their start in the 1800's as Frisbie pie tin company. People started throwing the tins (playing catch with them) and Frisbie changed the name and created the Frizbee toy. That's why they put in the frisbie scene.
More than special. This trilogy is a masterpiece of story telling.
Very jealous about that DeLorean😮😍
I was driving around LA with my nephew showing him the city and we happened upon a Delorean decorated like the BTTF version. We obviously took pictures right next to it.
Part 1: Marty's Movie
Part 2: Biff's Movie
Part 3: Doc's Movie
One main character is dealt with in depth in each part.
0:33 bro got his Probe lens out for the amazing shot, NOICEE!!!
Had to bring out the big guns 😂😃
23:57 Just noticed the train is revealed behind Doc’s head. His TRAIN of THOUGHT
Holy crap. It’s up. Everything else needs to be put on hold. Phone on silent. I’ll be busy for the next hour.
You guys are just…the absolute best ❤️
I remember going to the theater to watch the first part for the 25th anniversary, being a fan of the trilogy but not having the original experience (i was 9 at the first movie's release). And i remember a very special feeling while walking away from the theater after: gratitude. It was not joy, or excitement, or need to talk about the movie. It was gratitude, as in "master Zemeckis, thank you so much, master Gale, thank you, master Silvestri, what a score, thank you". That feeling stayed with me to this day even, every time i get to see these movies. Thanks for the mini ride down memory lane, and a hug from Chile!!
Now you know why if you watch one, you have to have to watch all three. They connect together so well. Definitely a master class in trilogy writing.
It's great, that this trilogy still works so well. A incomparable masterpiece. Your reaction shows that we all seem to have more in common than the conflicts and struggles around the world would have us believe. Peace.
I really want to leave this comment to say thank you to both of you for reacting this amazing trilogy ❤️ It has always been the greatest trilogy for me. My family used to have DVD at home and we watch this many times. I really don't want any people from Hollywood to touch this masterpiece because it's already great enough as it is. Once again, I'm enjoying your reaction and review for these movies. Thank you again.
From, your viewer from Malaysia 😊
The filming location with the Indians was on the Navajo reservation in Monument Valley, AZ.
My dad would have been apart of the Indians, but his hair was not long enough lol however my uncle and my dad’s horse were in that scene. 😊❤
Did you guys catch that the band at the festival is ZZ Top? 😆
This trilogy is a perfect trilogy to me. From where both Marty and Doc start and ends their stories, is perfect to me. And this might sound sacrilegious to some if not most, but the Tannen family line are some of the best antagonists of any trilogy, IMO. I don't use the word love often for movies, but I do love these movies.
Also, I'd like to think that Doc was able to unlock inter-reality travel with that train!
Totally agree! The way they build their relationship little by little throughout all 3 films made it feel so organic and real. It also helps that the actors were also getting to know each other more and more so by the time the 3rd film concludes it's truly two friends saying goodbye to their characters. Such a wholesome moment.
I know its a little thing but...the idea of Doc reading a letter that he will one day write to a friend that he hadn't met yet, saying goodbye and marking the end for a friendship that hadn't yet started, and then reflecting on how touching that letter was...It's just so good! It's a letter that he knew he'd never get to read to Marty as he wrote it...yet he is the one reading it to Marty. There's just something whimsical and magical about it. That scene alone is why I can't be too critical for this flick. It's just too earnest.
This movie managed to get so many things right for the 2nd sequel. The setting change to the old west makes people comfortable with a recognizable time period. After the first 2 movies make the (biff) Tanner men evil but incompetent the 3rd movie makes the "bad guy" an actual threat. Lastly the focus away from Marty to Doc gives a welcome change and balance for the whole trilogy, and they stick the landing on the ending.
I was 8 when I saw part 3 in the movie theater. The train going into the ravine and explosion was the most epic thing I had ever seen to date at that time. Not saying it was the best movie explosion ever but for a kid it was absolutely epic.
As a bipolar manic depressive who stuggles with social anxiety movies are mostly my escapism (gaming is the other) & Ari & Denise your both fun entertaining charismatic reactors, it's a joy to watch you watch movies as you always give great feedback.
I remember renting the first movie from the video store & it blew my mind & i fell in love with this awesome trilogy.
Big hugs from England 🏴
Thank you so much for the massive compliment ❤️ We’re so glad you’ve been enjoying these. Head over to our second channel where we do some gaming. Maybe you could suggest a few titles 😃
So glad you reacted to and enjoyed this triology as much as all of us did when it came out in the 80's and 1990. Every few years you just have to binge watch all three.❤Thanks for choosing these.
I never noticed this before but when the camera rises up over the station showing the town being built it's nearly the exact same camera shot from Once upon a time in the west, I've never seen two shots so similar.
I talk with a good mate often and we always quote BTTF sayings. It will be silent on the phone for just a sec and i'm like "I darn shot that horse!" We bothe crck up everytime. We are both in our 40's and grew up with these films. Glad you enjoyed them all!
After part 2's cliffhanger, I made sure to be there opening night for this one! This is my 2nd favorite of the trilogy (part 1 will always be first). When you mix the Old West with time travel, throw in Marty, Doc, Mad Dog Tannen, and of course the do or die finale- you have the perfect ending to a fantastic trilogy!
This is my favorite part of the trilogy.
And yes it's because it's a western.
I loved that so much as a kid.
The reason the hanging scene looks so realistic is that the support Michael J. Fox was supposed to be standing on, actually slipped away and he was actually being hung.
The film crew didn't notice at first and thought it was just great acting, but thankfully realized before he actually was seriously hurt or worse.
This trilogy is special. I always loved it, and I've re-watched it SO many times, and still enjoy it just as much as the first time. Hats off to the actors, the writing, the director, everyone. A real shame how Michael J. Fox has had to suffer from Parkinson's.
Great trilogy reaction! You two wrapped it up perfectly.
I was 8 when I saw the first one in the theater with my dad for the first time. It was instantly my favorite movie, and it still is. My dad worked in the entertainment industry. He worked on Family Ties a few times (MJF’s tv show in the 80’s), so he took me to see a taping of the show in February of ‘86. I got to meet Michael. He is such a nice guy. Being a short kid, he told me I was “his size.” I just melted. One of my favorite days of my life, next to my wedding and birth of my kids.
I know we want more BTTF (even though it would be a bad idea), but I’m working on something that connects with it. No characters from it will be in it, but some Easter eggs though. Just need to hear back from the Bobs. Can’t do it without there blessing, or a without a lawsuit. I may be waiting a long time. Hopefully, you’re still around doing reviews when it does get green lit and made.
Keep up the great work!
Only watched part of the intro so far, but just have to comment already. Damn dude, are you sure you're a writer and not a cinematographer? That Delorean segment is pure perfection! 😍
Haha! It’s funny you’d mentioned that. Started being more invested in the technical side first so learned cinematography and then slowly transitioned into writing. Denise got into writing and slowly transitioned into learning some of the technical aspects like cinematography as well. So now we can cover each other’s backs!
@OfficialMediaKnights we need to start working on a Real Steel 2 script. Adams Revenge lol
@@OfficialMediaKnights That is so exciting to hear! I believe you two are currently working on your own projects? How soon before we all can appreciate those? I honestly cannot wait, based on what I've been hearing from both of you over numerous reactions. I feel like you may be able to bring some much needed life back into this entire process which is meant to be inspiring and creative, but sadly has digressed into being almost purely based on shallowness greed.
@@OfficialMediaKnights Apologies, replying again, but I'm just taking this shot - any chance you'd consider posting a video here explaining how you achieved that segment? What camera did you use? Were all the focal changes done in camera or in post production? How did you move the camera so smoothly and consistently if it was so small and therefore couldn't be mounted on some sort of rig? Is it all handheld and then stabilized in post? How did you achieve that beautiful lighting? Just by eye or some sort of instrument? I have so many questions and would really, really appreciate knowing some of those answers!
Thank you so much for doing my favorite series of all time. You guys really make it fun, and it really feels special to see you experiencing my favorite lines and reacting just like I did. Doc's line at the end - "your future is whatever you make it, so make it a good one" - along with the music - oh my God! I'm glad you felt what I did, as well as so many other fans. Thank you again!! ♥
These films are truly special. We are so glad we got to experience them! This journey will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you for watching this with us, for your support and generosity. It means so much to both of us ❤️
I don't think there's a better trilogy than Back to the Future. Just love it.
One of my favourite movies of all time, hands down! I had the VHS when I was a kid and more or less wore it out 😂
Back when sequels were actually fun and meant something ❤ if I may… Robert Zemeckis made Welcome to Marwen, based on a true story… went largely unnoticed but it’s such a gem, please consider it! ❤
It's a bit of a mixed bag nowadays with sequels. Some of them are good, some of them are just fun and some are meh. Tends to happen when you start producing more and more content without really thinking about enhancing the experience.
Yes, 100% agreed! And another largely unnoticed gem from him is The Walk, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, also based on a true story. A truly beautifully made movie.
You're right about Welcome to Marwen, @marieclaudeb.2366.
I mean... no. The vast majority of sequels back then were atrocious. There is a reason why they made that Jaws 19 joke in the second one and that was not because back then sequels were fun and meant something. There might have been a better batting average of good sequels than today, but the whole "just the same shit, but bigger" complaint came from "back then". The 80 are fun when you can pick and choose the good stuff from afar. Living trough them there was enough crap to fill you up untill you wanted to scream. The real deal wasnt Stranger Things.
@@Dacre1000 I don't know man, you can't beat the American Ninja series...
@39:18 The little easter eggs throughout are what makes the film so great, like when Doc passes out drunk in the bar and the bartender says the wake up juice will take 10 minutes the clock tower clock can be seen outside the window showing 7:50.
Michael J. Fox about died in one of the noose scene takes at 20:16 - Basically he was tired after many attempts to shoot the scene and he didn't get his hands between the rope and his neck in time like he does properly at 20:21 on the closeup, so he was literally being choked and had to be brought back from being out for a while. He was choked for 30 seconds straight and it took the crew a bit to figure out what was going on.
Ooff...these scenes are quite dangerous! Glad he was ok after but it could've turned out real bad! Same thing happened to Brendan Fraser while filming "The Mummy". Hopefully the stunt crews have got this particular stunt figured out by now.
@@OfficialMediaKnights in his book MJF thinks this incident may have contributed to his condition 😮
@@OfficialMediaKnights Safety rigs keep improving, but accidents unfortunately still happen
The best thing about these films is how United this trilogy is. It feels like one story instead of three.
Thomas f Wilson (Biffs actor) is so underrated. What an amazing character actor in all 3 of these films.
I know this is considered the worst film in the trilogy but I low key think it’s my favorite. So quotable and heartwarming.
I saw this in theaters in 85. My Dad took my older brother and I to watch it. I was 11 and remember that we all loved it especially my Dad. It was one of the only times he went to see a movie with us.
Ari: “Big Bada-boom!”
Denise: “Multipass!”
I had to pause the video because I laughed so hard for five minutes straight .😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You guys are fantastic reactors and post commentary! Few nuggets you may've missed: The band in BTTF 3 at the festival were a call out to ZZ Top, that's why Marty got that tripped out look on his face. 2) That set up in BTTF 2 when Doc said "Time to discover the other great mystery of the universe.....women" for #3. P.S. I LOVE that you guys pay respect to the special effects in the 1980's. Film makers nowadays rely so heavily on technology, that seeing good effects in the 80's surprises youngsters. They had to find tricks to getting to that end, and did it well. My biggest laugh about reactors, is how much they underestimate the 1980's being so long ago, and how advanced it actually was.
I miss 80's and 90's movies. The nostalgia, creativity, originality, and storytelling cannot be duplicated. There's a reason why these movies are so rewatchable compared to the more recent movies. Also a reason why so many movies are just remaking 80's movies. Creativity in Hollywood no longer exists and it's a shame.
Completely agree 👍
A golden era. How lucky we were.
I’ve been thinking about watching this trilogy lately, but now that I’ve seen it again for the first time through your eyes I don’t feel the need. So thank you. It’s been fun.
"In here we pour whiskey" lets go Whiskey Ginger!!! had no idea that was from this 😂
A joy experiencing this whole trilogy with you, and you had the privilege of not seeing the trailer for this attached to the Part II, that was a good call.
I'm so glad to hear that you guys enjoyed the trilogy. I've said it before, yours are the best reactions to this trilogy that I've seen. Fun fact, the band at the festival was ZZ TOP. They featured their famous guitar twirl.
For me as a fan from when I was a kid to teenager. However as an adult I love these movies for the friendship that doc and Marty have.
Just one of the all-time trilogies. People like to rag on the 2nd and 3rd films, but to have three different tones in a trilogy and still have it all connected and emotionally satisfying and thrilling? That's a rare thing. These movies will never get old.
The final triumphant heartfelt swelling of the theme when Marty opens the photo Doc hands him. Ugh. I don't know anything about music theory but that iteration of the theme just fucks me up so hard in the best way.
That Delorean Is Perfect I Do Love It ❤
the crazy thing is we(people who saw this in the 80's at the theater) didnt realize how great this movie would be until decades later watching it with our kids, friends, and people like you reacting to it(whom many consider friends). Its wild because I can now watch it from a different pair of eyeballs and see the joy you have for it the way we did back when it premiered.
Thank you.
Love the model. Can you imagine if theyd stuck with their original scripts time machine? Instead of a kick ass cool car youd have a model of a REFRIGERATOR! lol
Haha! Not as iconic as this. Glad we got a timeless DeLorean instead ❤️
I have such a big smile on my face seeing your reaction to the Doc's time traveling train. Great video!
Zemeckis' shtick is irony. It runs through all of his films, and this one is the best example of that. Also the cinematographer Dean Cundy (Jurassic Park, The Thing) is the festival photographer. ZZ Top is the band at the festival, and Flea from the Red Hot Chilipeppers plays Needles. Everyone always goes nuts with Doc having kids later in life, but in Part 2 he says he had a blood and skin transfusion and added 30 years to his life (when he's peeling his face off but looks the exact same). A pay-off gag for the ending scene.
I thought Doc added 30 years to himself with that skin mask, and the joke was that he looked the same without it. I don't think he added 30 years to his look, because he looks the same throughout the entire trilogy. He's not meant to be 30 years younger than he actually is.
@@alexp601 Yeah, that's how I understood the joke too. But he does mention a futuristic transfusion of everything so he basically added an extra 30 years, despite looking the exact same.
@@lwoodesign hmmm that would be interesting if the Doc actually was, biologically, 30 years younger, while keeping the same external appearance. I don’t think I’ve heard that mentioned in any discussions about this trilogy. It’s a cool idea though
@@alexp601 - it plays into Zemeckis’ ironic humor. Kind of a cheap feel-good “why not” throw away moment that pays off in this movie. At least that was my take away. I could be wrong, but I think it fits into the cooky scientist schtick they wrote for him.
Your intro was dramatic, grandiose, over-the-top and a few more words that only exist in other languages...
...and I loved it.
It's great to see a passion like that.
