When this film was made no one knew that in 2015 we will have those miniature super computers with touchscreen called smartphones that we keep in our pockets. 😀
Just to let you know, locking your car in the 50s, 60s and 70s was not very common. People didn't steal them very often or things in them, unlike these days.
They actually did nail quite a few things about the future with their predictions in this film. Video calls, ultra thin wall mounted flat screens, portable virtual reality glasses, retro 80s nostalgia themed bars, personalized targeted advertising, personal drones, wireless digital payments for in-person transactions, fingerprint scanning locks on your home, personal voice activated AI for your home, and so much more. All of this was as much fantasy back then as flying cars, hoverboards, and self drying/re-sizing clothes.
Yes, thank you. I think that these reactors being young don't realize that all the things you mentioned were not available in 1989. Mary didn't even blink with the flat-screen TV nor with FaceTime, which means that she thinks those things were around back then.
We do have hoverboards, sort of. They just don't _literally_ hover. ;-) Flying cars are quite possible today using similar technology to common drones, but the traffic issues are too much of a nightmare, people basically went "Nope."
- Jennifer got recast because the original actress declined to return to the role: at the time her mother was in treatment for cancer, and she decided to be at her side. - The Chicago Cubs is a baseball team that had the longest period dry of titles at the Major League Baseball in the US. In real life 2015 the team indeed reached the World Series (the final series of games that decides the title), but lost it. They won it in 2016, ending over a hundred years of frustration. - The first movie was filmed as a stand alone movie, but it got so wildly successful that the studio executives ordered two more. One thing that Robert Zemeckis always says is that, if they were planning to do a trilogy from the beginning, they wouldn't bring Jennifer to the future, as she doesn't add anything to the story. However, Parts 2 and 3 were indeed filmed together, as they realized it was better to make the story cohesive that way.
I also think the actress who played Jennifer was also recast because of the height difference between her and Michael J. Fox. Cubs made it to the playoffs in 2015, but not the World Series. They lost to the Mets in 2015, came back and won it all in 2016.
@@patriotsfan122480 Melora Hardin was supposed to play Jennifer alongside Eric Stoltz. Claudia Wells replaced her when MJ Fox came on because she was too tall. Nothing to do with why Claudia was replaced in part 2.
Actually, Marty's son turning on multiple TV channels because he doesn't have the attention span to just concentrate on one thing is something that they DID predict correctly
The practical side of it was not only multiple channels because even Picture in Picture didn’t exist in mainstream in ‘89… but there were no real good large sized televisions then… 27 inches was about as big as a typical family tv went for years until they came out with LCD TVs… and projection tv wasn’t great for quality either.., a lot of family projection TVs were a frenal lens and a small screen tv that the lens would simply amplify to larger via mirrors…
There’s a VERY quick statement by Doc about Griff where he says, “be careful around that Griff character, he’s got a few short circuits in his bionic implants.” Which is what’s causing Griff to be a complete psycho in demeanor and behavior. Also how he caught Marty’s punch without looking when they started fighting, and why there’s robotic sounds when he moves around.
In a cut scene from the movie, when they're leaving 2015, we see old Biff collapse behind a dumpster, and then disappear - like Marty was about to in the first movie. That's because, sometime between 1985 and 2015, Loraine ended up killing him because she had had enough, so Old Biff doesn't exist anymore.
Actually the Self Lacing boots from Nike and the Pepsi bottles did happen in 2015 (mainly because the companies really made them for a promotion because of this movie). I'm with you, I ALWAYS lock my car, house, even my bedroom.
That first bttf Pepsi bottle marketing campaign was a total shitshow;Aside from producing an extremely limited amount you could only purchase them through Pepsi's website, which crashed almost immediately upon going live, & because Pepsi did not limit sales, very few fans were able to get their hands on one before the scalpers & their bots snatched up the rest.
I didn’t realize how much foreshadowing there was in this movie about part 3. Btw the little boy in the arcade at the 80’s cafe is non other than Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood)
Tom Wilson is a great actor and a perfect villain. He based Biff on the guys you used to bully him in high school. And I don't know if you noticed but he was also on "Freaks and Geeks"
20:46 They actually did this running back and forth thing to make up for the fact that Doc is so much taller than Marty. It keeps their eye line at the same level.
Back in the day people typically didn't bother to lock their car doors or house or anything except maybe at night in the suburbs or small towns. My grandparents never locked their house during the day until around the 1990s. You find it unbelievable but that was normal. The question is would you rather live knowing you could safely leave your doors unlocked or had to lock them?
The reason that old Biff is clutching his heart as he gets out of the Delorean is that he is being erased from existence! A deleted scene shows him fading away, like Marty nearly did in the first movie. The word is that, in 1993 (alternative timeline), Lorraine finally murdered Biff in revenge for all his evil, incidentally with the same gun he used on George in 1973! So Biff essentially ensured power and money for himself...at the cost of his own life!
Actually Back to the Future part 2 and 3 were made at the same time but the original one was done a few years earlier, actually in 1985. The original had so much success they decided to make part 2 and 3 which part 3 sums up the triolgy with a special message for us all at the end of part 3.
The third one was actually started after the second one wrapped, but since pre-production had already been done for both films, they were basically ready to start the third one right away.
At the end of part 1 when the words 'To be Continued...' came up on the screen, the Producers were being funny because they didn't have any plans on a sequel at the time. It was only when it became a big hit that they decided to make parts 2 & 3 back to back and complete the trilogy.
I never realized how genuinely sweet it is that Doc came back to get Marty just to make sure his future turns out good. Really shows he cares about his friend.
16:11 - 16:18 There was a deleted scene after old Biff got out of the car after returning to his time frame, where he fall to the ground in pain and disappeared (like Marty's brother and sister in the photo in Part 1) as he altered his own timeline.
Tom Wilson is definitely the MVP in this trilogy, and unsurprisingly he's terrific in Part III - looking forward to your reaction to that, over the years it's actually become my favourite of the sequels. And no, they can't kill Buford Tannen in 1885, since then 1955 Biff wouldn't exist and would create a huge paradox like the Doc warned about. Think about it for a moment! :)
Actually, a lot of people do leave their cars unlocked in the USA depending on where they live. It was a lot more common back in 1985 too. In the town I grew up in a car would be more likely to be unlocked than locked.
Nike DID in fact produce a limited edition of the power lace shoes. I think Michael J Fox himself got the first edition! Some other companies tried to create their own versions as well! 😆
Everybody focuses on the style, flying cars, etc., that they don't notice the actual predictions that came true: thumbprints for ID was not a thing in 1989, the return of 3D movies, TVs so thin you can hang on the wall, the drone walking the dog and taking the news picture, Google glasses, Florida having a baseball team (Florida didn't have one in 1989), voice activated appliances, and the biggest one: FaceTime. I think you're too young to realize that things today that we take for granted were not a thing during that time.
Thought you were going to say "Adventures in Babysitting," while not nearly as good as Karate Kid, still a fun 80s movie (with a small role of Vincent D'onofrio as THOR)
They didn’t actually think 2015 was gonna be that way. It’s making fun of how older movies and tv depict such crazy futures. Crazy clothes, crazy tech, crazy lingo, etc. Although… Future things in this movie that actually happened: the rise of ubiquitous cameras; use of unmanned flying drones for newsgathering; widescreen flat-panel television sets mounted on walls with multiple channel viewing; video chat systems; hands-free video games; talking hologram billboards (which have gotten better it seems); wearable technology; tablet computers with fingerprint scanners; head-mounted displays; walking dogs with drones, and payment on personal portable devices. The Cubs did also win the World Series, but in 2016 One of the kids at the video game was a little Elijah Wood! Old Biff looked like he was dying because he changed the past, so that version of him is fading away. Like Marty was in the first movie. There’s even a deleted scene you can find where they show him fading away
they never thought this is what technology would truly be like in 2015 - they were just having fun with it and throwing out wild ideas - it's rather shocking how many they happened to get right
That skin-peeling bit, it was added just as an excuse to not have to spend so much time constantly applying it to make Christopher Lloyd look older in this film and the third film.
Its actually really common in high crime areas of the US to leave your car unlocked. San Fransisco is well known for this. The reasoning is that if someone wants to break into your car they are going to do it regardless of if its locked or not. Its much cheaper to just not leave valuables in the car and leave it unlocked for the burglars to look inside and leave than it is to replace the window that they smash to get inside your car
Interesting location shoot: The tunnel where Marty & Biff are fighting over the almanac is the same tunnel that was used in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?(1988); it was the tunnel that leads to Toontown.
And the man who Marty talks with about the Cubs winning the series is the actor who voiced Roger Rabbit and Benny the Cab, in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit ".
On "Future Day" October 21, 2015, I was working at a major aerospace company in LA. We had a model shop to mock up concept airplanes and many of those guys were prop makers for Hollywood. I was (ironically) running late for work that day and didn't notice that the car i parked next to was a 1:1 replica of THE DeLorean, complete with Mr. Fusion matter converter.
This one is my favorite of the series because it has more time travel, fun 2015 predictions (some of which they got right), and they revisit the highlights of the first movie. And yes, Rick and Morty is inspired by Doc and Marty.
The glasses that Doc was wearing at the beginning of the movie were actually not see-through. Christopher Lloyd was basically working blind. If you look closely, you'll see that he's hanging on to the car when he gets out. After that, he just had to listen to Michael J. Fox's voice as he walked up to Marty and Jennifer.
Heh, you've definitely got a little bloodlust going! I mean, this really isn't the first time you've cheered characters to cold-blooded murder :D But yeah, Part II is definitely my favourite. It's far more complex than the first or the third movie, and I absolutely love both the cheesy future of 2015 and the dystopian hellscape 1985.
16:12 - 16:18 Mary, the reason why Biff is in pain when he comes back to 2015 was because in the mid-90s, Lorraine learned that Biff was the one who killed George and shot him both out of revenge and for his abuse. A deleted scene shows old Biff fading from existence as Marty and Doc fly back to 1985 (A).
I don't know if you know this, but one of the video game boys by that arcade game (I believe the guy in front who said "You mean you have to use your hands?") is actually Elijah Wood!
Hi Mary. It's awesome you noticed that Beef isn't well when he backs to the future with the Delorean. It happens because, in the original story, when Beef changes his past and became married with Marty's mom, she shot him a few years after 1985 (because of his abusive behaviour) and, in his new future 2015, he doesn't exists anymore. That's why he's not ok when he'is back. There is a scene showing him disappearing, but this scene was cut in the final edition. You can find this scene searching for "back to the future beef death". He just disappears like Marty was in the part 1.
Eh, the thing about Lorraine shooting Biff was really more or less a throwaway comment from one of the film's producers. We don't know if that actually happened, but it's not implausible, either, since 1985-A Biff would definitely have his enemies.
This was the first film where Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's symptoms started. Despite having been trained by Tony Hawk only 4 years earlier, Fox was surprised to discover that his body didn't remember a thing and he had to re-learn how to skateboard. It took another 2 years before the finger tremors clued him in to see a neurologist.
The Writers weren't trying to make any kind of accurate predictions of the future, they were just playing the future as if it were live action Jetsons. The Cubs winning the World Series happened a year later
Yeah, bascially every single thing that happens in the future segment is a joke. Flying cars = joke. Hoverboards = joke. All the clothing items = jokes. All the items in the antique shop = jokes. Weather service = joke. Food rehydrater = joke. "The justice system works swiftly in the future now that they've abolished all lawyers." = joke. Laser discs were considered cutting edge tech in the 80s and the alleyway is full of stacks of them = joke.
I always love your reactions!!! This is one of my all-time fave films , the Back to the Future trilofy is a deeply appreciated staple of my childhood! Much love and much respect!
Hey Mary! Nike did in fact create some limited edition self lacing shoes exactly like the ones you see in the movie. As for hoverboards, they were also developed although not in the way they are in the movie. To use the real version, you need large metal sheets beneath the hoverboard in order for it to work so wouldn't be any good on grass, paths or pretty much anything else. We did used to have faxes but they pretty much faded out due to Emails I believe. I was watching all three of these only yesterday, love the movies. A great reaction video as always. Have a wonderful day, take care. ❤
3:57 No, they said: "We know we're gonna get stuff wrong, so we're just gonna go crazy". And still got giant TVs, Google Glass and 80's nostalgia right. 13:34 Says as there just was a video call.
You didn't notice the wide-screen flat panel TV's on the walls as a prediction. Those weren't a thing in 1989. 4:3 CRT TV's were what people had. LED lights on police cars, and video calls were other good predictions.
Glad that you're a "FREAKS AND GEEKS" fan, that's a bit of a deep cut for most reactors. You'll appreciate this then; the fellow in the '50s scenes who keeps saying that Marty picked Biff's pockets is Paul Feig, who was just a stand-up comic at the time, but later became one of the creators/writers of "FREAKS AND GEEKS", and directed the movies BRIDESMAIDS, SPY, THE HEAT, and the female-fronted sequel of GHOSTBUSTERS.
they really made those nike shoes and auctioned off several pairs in 2015... i want to say the cheapest pair went for like 10k or more lol. although they did not work like the ones in the movies... but they had a similar mechanism in them to tighten them
Nike did release a limited supply of self tying shoes in 2016, specifically because it was one of their big wigs that made the prediction for the movie. The Cubs also won the the World Series in 2016, just one year late as well.
5:10 Texaco -- short for the Texas Company, an old gasoline company. It merged with Chevron a couple decades ago, and Chevron is the brand name we see all the time.
Hope you don’t wait to long to watch part 3 Mary cherry 🍒 where content may vary. Part 3 is my favourite it’s a great closing to the trilogy. I enjoy your reactions, as always.
I think as time marches on, people will notice fewer of the details this movie got right about 2015. Things like flat screen TVs, video calls, fingerprint scanners, drones, etc. are normal to us now, but were groundbreaking to people in the 1980s.
Just a good fun time watching this with you. Nice you skipped watching the trailer at the end. It was a fun teaser for what is to come. Looking forward to you sharing your reaction to it too. :)
@MaryCherry the actress for Jennifer changed as many have said. the actress playing her here (Elisabeth Shue) was in Karate Kid 1 and also is the boss lady from The Boys
In 2015, on the talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live, on October 21st, there was a surprise appearance by Marty, Doc, and the DeLorean. What followed was basically a skit with Jimmy and the guys, in which the pair talked about what they thought the year would be like. Jimmy in return would explain what they got right or wrong. What made things even better was that it was actually Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd reprising their roles.
Elizabeth Shue went on to become a great actress in Oscar winning films. She is always working making movies or co-starring in TV series. She was most recently starring as the evil Madelyn Stillwell in the super-antihero series The Boys.
“It’s Lindsay’s dad!” Look up a US/Canadian tv show called SCTV Second City Television which is where he started. Also -John Candy -Catherine O’Hara -Eugene Levy -Rick Moranis -Martin Short
- I think this is a reasonable explanation of how Biff from 2015 knew how to use the Delorean, he certainly knows this year's technology and knows how Mr. Fusion works and once inside the time machine, no matter if it takes 1, 5 or 10 years, he will learn how to use it and come back the next minute, - Not only Billy Zane is recognized in the movie, we have Casey Siemaszko, who wears the 3D glasses in the first one and here in the second one he is wearing the sunglasses even in the dark, he did several movies in the 80's like Stand By Me and others, I recommend watch his biggest hit, Three O'Clock High.
You have to watch superman the movie(the three hour version) it is thanks to that movie that there are currently many live action adaptations of comics
Mary Nike actually created self laced shoes in 2015. During Jimmy Kimmel Live (American Late Night Show), both Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd (Marty & Doc) did cameos at the opening celebrating 30th Anniversary of Back to the Future. Michael worn 1st self laced Nike shoes.
I'm from Canada... In the 80's, NO ONE locked their doors. You could leave your bike on the front lawn all night and it would still be there the next day... Times were different.
12:30 Eh, you'd be surprised, in California LA. A lot of people leave their cars unlocked. So, no one would break the glass when they check it for stuff to steal. Some even have the trunk wide open.
Texaco (short for "The Texas Company") was a major oil company in the 80's, but it was bought out by a competitor in 2001. In 1985, it had been 81 years since the Chicago Cubs had won the World Series, and it turns out their prediction was only off by 1 year because the Cubs DID win the World Series in 2016 after only 108 years! One of the kids in the diner 6:52 was an 8 year old Elijah Wood.
Speaking of westerns, you might want to check out one set in Australia, "Quigley Down Under" (1990). It's a fun adventure with Tom Selleck and Alan Rickman.
You made mention near the beginning that Jennifer looked familiar. That’s because Jennifer was now being played by Elisabeth Shue, ‘Aly with an “I” from the Karate Kid. Claudia Wells, the original Jennifer, had personal matters to tend to, so she dropped out of the role. “So, you’re the SOB stealing my newspapers”. By 2015 the circulation of subscription newspapers delivered to homes was already on a steep decline. Events, local and around the world, were already hitting the internet within minutes of them happening. Physical newspapers were reporting ‘old news’ the day after and were becoming increasing thinner. Unlikely, Mr. Strickland would still have a physical newspaper subscription delivered to his doorstep.
The computerized faces in the 80s café or people from the 80s. So you saw Michael Jackson, Ronald Reagan, the Ayatollah Khomeini, etc. The style match that of a character called Max Headroom. Look it up.
God I loved this franchise. I was born in ‘76 so I got to grow up with this and Ghostbusters and all the other greats. Back then going to a movie was so exciting, it was an event in my family, even if we just piled into the car to go to the Drive in we loved it.
I give them a lot of credit for getting the Cubs finally winning a championship again off by a single year. Didn't get it right with almost everything else but it's pretty amazing they got that one from a simple "the Cubs haven't won in a century" gag to setup the gambling angle.
Except you really can't: they were predicted to win against a team that doesn't exist, because even if the cubs DID win, it would never be against the Miami Gators.
Everybody focuses on the style, flying cars, etc., that they don't notice the actual predictions that came true: thumbprints for ID was not a thing in 1989, the return of 3D movies, TVs so thin you can hang on the wall, the drone walking the dog and taking the news picture, Google glasses, Florida having a baseball team (Florida didn't have one in 1989), voice activated appliances, and the biggest one: FaceTime. I think you're too young to realize that things today that we take for granted were not a thing during that time.
so to explain one part of the movie for you, when old Biff returned to 2015, you commented that it looked like he was having a heart attack, in actuality he was being erased from time as his interfearence in the past was changing, and in reality wiping out that future, while in the time machine he was safe, but it caught up to him when he got out. similar to marty fading away in the first film as the potential change of his parents never meeting slowly caught up to him in the future before he stopped it.
The movie did predict some things correctly like the Cubs winning the World Series in 2016 just over The Cleveland Indians, not Miami. The nikey power laces are real, my friend has a pair. They cost a few grand though lol. Nice reaction Mary, I look forward to your reaction for part 3.
Kudos on the Tom Wilson appreciation. He's actually supposed to be the nicest guy but his performance was so convincing (if not dramatic) that being cast for future roles became challenging to say the least...people thought he was ACTUALLY like that. Also, anyone else see Elijah Wood in the cafe 80s scene? 😅

Thomas F. Wilson’s acting in the trilogy is really underrated
And the unsung hero, with his many roles, so good as Casino owner Biff, Mad Dog.
Wilson and Lloyd carry this whole trilogy
Is it? From what I’ve seen, he gets tons of recognition and praise for it. Then again, I guess more wouldn’t really hurt.
He needs to be in the conversation as one of the greatest cinematic villains of all time.
Especially given his true personality.

Actually, Marty's son turning on multiple TV channels because he doesn't have the attention span to just concentrate on one thing is something that they DID predict correctly
I always thought that was because they had so many channels so why not be able to watch multiple things at once
The practical side of it was not only multiple channels because even Picture in Picture didn’t exist in mainstream in ‘89… but there were no real good large sized televisions then… 27 inches was about as big as a typical family tv went for years until they came out with LCD TVs… and projection tv wasn’t great for quality either.., a lot of family projection TVs were a frenal lens and a small screen tv that the lens would simply amplify to larger via mirrors…

There’s a VERY quick statement by Doc about Griff where he says, “be careful around that Griff character, he’s got a few short circuits in his bionic implants.”

There's a hoverboard skatepark in California that uses magnets to hover
The reason that old Biff is clutching his heart as he gets out of the Delorean is that he is being erased from existence! A deleted scene shows him fading away, like Marty nearly did in the first movie. The word is that, in 1993 (alternative timeline), Lorraine finally murdered Biff in revenge for all his evil, incidentally with the same gun he used on George in 1973! So Biff essentially ensured power and money for himself...at the cost of his own life!
Actually Back to the Future part 2 and 3 were made at the same time but the original one was done a few years earlier, actually in 1985. The original had so much success they decided to make part 2 and 3 which part 3 sums up the triolgy with a special message for us all at the end of part 3.
But it was rushed to end the trilogy
The third one was actually started after the second one wrapped, but since pre-production had already been done for both films, they were basically ready to start the third one right away.
I remember yelling "YES!" in the theater at the trailer at the end of part 2, haha!
At the end of part 1 when the words 'To be Continued...' came up on the screen, the Producers were being funny because they didn't have any plans on a sequel at the time. It was only when it became a big hit that they decided to make parts 2 & 3 back to back and complete the trilogy.
@Jim Robertson iirc, in the original theatrical release it didn't actually say "to be continued" and that was added or changed in the VHS release.
I never realized how genuinely sweet it is that Doc came back to get Marty just to make sure his future turns out good. Really shows he cares about his friend.
16:11 - 16:18
There was a deleted scene after old Biff got out of the car after returning to his time frame, where he fall to the ground in pain and disappeared (like Marty's brother and sister in the photo in Part 1) as he altered his own timeline.
Tom Wilson is definitely the MVP in this trilogy, and unsurprisingly he's terrific in Part III - looking forward to your reaction to that, over the years it's actually become my favourite of the sequels. And no, they can't kill Buford Tannen in 1885, since then 1955 Biff wouldn't exist and would create a huge paradox like the Doc warned about. Think about it for a moment! :)
I just watched a current series with Lea Thompson. She definitely aged way better than they made her age. Same with Elisabeth Shue (last seen in CSI)
Yes, I liked Lea Thompson on Star Trek: Picard too.
Elisabeth looked amazing in Cobra Kai as well
Actually, a lot of people do leave their cars unlocked in the USA depending on where they live. It was a lot more common back in 1985 too. In the town I grew up in a car would be more likely to be unlocked than locked.
Ditto. We here in Cenla never locked our doors until the 90's.
In my hometown, at our house we locked our house doors but never, ever, even once had needed to.
In the little town I live in I still don't lock my car or my house, same with my hometown in Wisconsin.
Nike DID in fact produce a limited edition of the power lace shoes. I think Michael J Fox himself got the first edition! Some other companies tried to create their own versions as well! 😆
Everybody focuses on the style, flying cars, etc., that they don't notice the actual predictions that came true: thumbprints for ID was not a thing in 1989, the return of 3D movies, TVs so thin you can hang on the wall, the drone walking the dog and taking the news picture, Google glasses, Florida having a baseball team (Florida didn't have one in 1989), voice activated appliances, and the biggest one: FaceTime.
I think you're too young to realize that things today that we take for granted were not a thing during that time.
Mary, this is the perfect chance for you to watch another classic, iconic movie from the 80's that had Elizabeth Shue in it, "The Karate Kid."
Watch all three movies then start cobra Kai!
@@scottthompson4589There's 4
Thought you were going to say "Adventures in Babysitting," while not nearly as good as Karate Kid, still a fun 80s movie (with a small role of Vincent D'onofrio as THOR)
@@hellomark1 🤡
@scottthompson4589 I don't think connected but the karate kid with Jackie Chan and Will Smith son
The continuation begins. Let’s go
LFG
They didn’t actually think 2015 was gonna be that way. It’s making fun of how older movies and tv depict such crazy futures. Crazy clothes, crazy tech, crazy lingo, etc. Although…
Future things in this movie that actually happened: the rise of ubiquitous cameras; use of unmanned flying drones for newsgathering; widescreen flat-panel television sets mounted on walls with multiple channel viewing; video chat systems; hands-free video games; talking hologram billboards (which have gotten better it seems); wearable technology; tablet computers with fingerprint scanners; head-mounted displays; walking dogs with drones, and payment on personal portable devices. The Cubs did also win the World Series, but in 2016
One of the kids at the video game was a little Elijah Wood!
Old Biff looked like he was dying because he changed the past, so that version of him is fading away. Like Marty was in the first movie. There’s even a deleted scene you can find where they show him fading away
they never thought this is what technology would truly be like in 2015 - they were just having fun with it and throwing out wild ideas - it's rather shocking how many they happened to get right
That skin-peeling bit, it was added just as an excuse to not have to spend so much time constantly applying it to make Christopher Lloyd look older in this film and the third film.
Its actually really common in high crime areas of the US to leave your car unlocked. San Fransisco is well known for this. The reasoning is that if someone wants to break into your car they are going to do it regardless of if its locked or not. Its much cheaper to just not leave valuables in the car and leave it unlocked for the burglars to look inside and leave than it is to replace the window that they smash to get inside your car
Really? Wow. Well that's just... kinda sad.
I think Mark Rober made a video on pranking thieves with smelly glitter bombs instead of iphones, etc.
Interesting location shoot: The tunnel where Marty & Biff are fighting over the almanac is the same tunnel that was used in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?(1988); it was the tunnel that leads to Toontown.
Really ?
@@lexkanyima2195 It was also in WarGames and Bumblebee. Hollywood likes when you don't have to travel far for location shooting.
And the man who Marty talks with about the Cubs winning the series is the actor who voiced Roger Rabbit and Benny the Cab, in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit ".
On "Future Day" October 21, 2015, I was working at a major aerospace company in LA. We had a model shop to mock up concept airplanes and many of those guys were prop makers for Hollywood. I was (ironically) running late for work that day and didn't notice that the car i parked next to was a 1:1 replica of THE DeLorean, complete with Mr. Fusion matter converter.
This one is my favorite of the series because it has more time travel, fun 2015 predictions (some of which they got right), and they revisit the highlights of the first movie.
And yes, Rick and Morty is inspired by Doc and Marty.
The glasses that Doc was wearing at the beginning of the movie were actually not see-through. Christopher Lloyd was basically working blind.
If you look closely, you'll see that he's hanging on to the car when he gets out. After that, he just had to listen to Michael J. Fox's voice as he walked up to Marty and Jennifer.
Heh, you've definitely got a little bloodlust going! I mean, this really isn't the first time you've cheered characters to cold-blooded murder :D
But yeah, Part II is definitely my favourite. It's far more complex than the first or the third movie, and I absolutely love both the cheesy future of 2015 and the dystopian hellscape 1985.
7:00 Elijah Woods (Frodo) first movie
After Part 3 for more MJF I recommend The Frighteners (don't worry Mary it's mostly a comedy)
16:12 - 16:18 Mary, the reason why Biff is in pain when he comes back to 2015 was because in the mid-90s, Lorraine learned that Biff was the one who killed George and shot him both out of revenge and for his abuse. A deleted scene shows old Biff fading from existence as Marty and Doc fly back to 1985 (A).
Where is that lore from?
I don't know if you know this, but one of the video game boys by that arcade game (I believe the guy in front who said "You mean you have to use your hands?") is actually Elijah Wood!
Hi Mary. It's awesome you noticed that Beef isn't well when he backs to the future with the Delorean. It happens because, in the original story, when Beef changes his past and became married with Marty's mom, she shot him a few years after 1985 (because of his abusive behaviour) and, in his new future 2015, he doesn't exists anymore. That's why he's not ok when he'is back. There is a scene showing him disappearing, but this scene was cut in the final edition. You can find this scene searching for "back to the future beef death". He just disappears like Marty was in the part 1.
Beef
His name is " Biff ". Not "Beef ".
Eh, the thing about Lorraine shooting Biff was really more or less a throwaway comment from one of the film's producers. We don't know if that actually happened, but it's not implausible, either, since 1985-A Biff would definitely have his enemies.
He wasn't ok because he based his balls with his cane
You recognized Billy Zane but missed little Frodo in the cafe 80's.
And Flea from RHCP
This was the first film where Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's symptoms started. Despite having been trained by Tony Hawk only 4 years earlier, Fox was surprised to discover that his body didn't remember a thing and he had to re-learn how to skateboard. It took another 2 years before the finger tremors clued him in to see a neurologist.
Can we just acknowledge the fire trails line up perfectly with the beams on her mic 2:33
The Writers weren't trying to make any kind of accurate predictions of the future, they were just playing the future as if it were live action Jetsons. The Cubs winning the World Series happened a year later
Yeah, bascially every single thing that happens in the future segment is a joke.
Flying cars = joke. Hoverboards = joke. All the clothing items = jokes. All the items in the antique shop = jokes. Weather service = joke. Food rehydrater = joke. "The justice system works swiftly in the future now that they've abolished all lawyers." = joke. Laser discs were considered cutting edge tech in the 80s and the alleyway is full of stacks of them = joke.
Nah, they got a lot of things right. I made a comment about it earlier on here.
This is personally my favourite. Love your reactions man.
The final part is really good. You're in for a treat. I'm old enough to remember watching it at the cinema.
I always love your reactions!!! This is one of my all-time fave films , the Back to the Future trilofy is a deeply appreciated staple of my childhood! Much love and much respect!
Hey Mary!
Nike did in fact create some limited edition self lacing shoes exactly like the ones you see in the movie.
As for hoverboards, they were also developed although not in the way they are in the movie.
To use the real version, you need large metal sheets beneath the hoverboard in order for it to work so wouldn't be any good on grass, paths or pretty much anything else.
We did used to have faxes but they pretty much faded out due to Emails I believe.
I was watching all three of these only yesterday, love the movies.
A great reaction video as always.
Have a wonderful day, take care. ❤
Dude everybody in this comment section already informed This
3:57 No, they said: "We know we're gonna get stuff wrong, so we're just gonna go crazy". And still got giant TVs, Google Glass and 80's nostalgia right.
13:34 Says as there just was a video call.
You didn't notice the wide-screen flat panel TV's on the walls as a prediction. Those weren't a thing in 1989. 4:3 CRT TV's were what people had.
LED lights on police cars, and video calls were other good predictions.
The size of the tvs as well. They were much smaller then.
@@Billy.gen-X And using your voice instead of a remote.
Glad that you're a "FREAKS AND GEEKS" fan, that's a bit of a deep cut for most reactors.
You'll appreciate this then; the fellow in the '50s scenes who keeps saying that Marty picked Biff's pockets is Paul Feig, who was just a stand-up comic at the time, but later became one of the creators/writers of "FREAKS AND GEEKS", and directed the movies BRIDESMAIDS, SPY, THE HEAT, and the female-fronted sequel of GHOSTBUSTERS.
they really made those nike shoes and auctioned off several pairs in 2015... i want to say the cheapest pair went for like 10k or more lol. although they did not work like the ones in the movies... but they had a similar mechanism in them to tighten them
5:37 Sports Al Manic 🤣
It was hilarious watching Back to the Future w my mom cause she also says “Great Scot” and would say it even before Doc when watching. 😂😂😂
Nike did release a limited supply of self tying shoes in 2016, specifically because it was one of their big wigs that made the prediction for the movie.
The Cubs also won the the World Series in 2016, just one year late as well.
I just noticed the Lego Infinity Gauntlet in the background, I love the gesture you have it making lol
I didn’t even notice that until I saw your comment
5:10 Texaco -- short for the Texas Company, an old gasoline company. It merged with Chevron a couple decades ago, and Chevron is the brand name we see all the time.
Ironically... I'm watching this on October 21st 2024 .. I didn't even realize it was "back to the future day". (well, one of them anyway..)
2:30 the DeLorian flying along your mic stand 👌
Hope you don’t wait to long to watch part 3 Mary cherry 🍒 where content may vary. Part 3 is my favourite it’s a great closing to the trilogy. I enjoy your reactions, as always.
I think as time marches on, people will notice fewer of the details this movie got right about 2015. Things like flat screen TVs, video calls, fingerprint scanners, drones, etc. are normal to us now, but were groundbreaking to people in the 1980s.
Fun fact : that's Elijah Wood in the retro diner as one of the video game players.
Just a good fun time watching this with you. Nice you skipped watching the trailer at the end. It was a fun teaser for what is to come. Looking forward to you sharing your reaction to it too. :)
@MaryCherry the actress for Jennifer changed as many have said. the actress playing her here (Elisabeth Shue) was in Karate Kid 1 and also is the boss lady from The Boys
and one of the kids playing the shooting arcade machine was none other than Frodo, Elijah Wood
Texaco was also in the first movie, a scene where you see a car get several guys servicing a car, but in the early 2000's was absorbed into Chevron
In 2015, on the talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live, on October 21st, there was a surprise appearance by Marty, Doc, and the DeLorean.
What followed was basically a skit with Jimmy and the guys, in which the pair talked about what they thought the year would be like. Jimmy in return would explain what they got right or wrong.
What made things even better was that it was actually Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd reprising their roles.
So much fun, Mary!!! I'm glad you didn't recall a lot of the film; it was like a first watch. Can't wait for you to do the third one.
Elizabeth Shue went on to become a great actress in Oscar winning films. She is always working making movies or co-starring in TV series.
She was most recently starring as the evil Madelyn Stillwell in the super-antihero series The Boys.
Elizabeth's brother Andrew is currently married to fired TV anchor Amy Robach. Andrew starred on TV's Melrose Place.
when i was in high school in 2002 - 2003 I hardly ever locked my car door so i dont think that was that unbelieveable lol
“It’s Lindsay’s dad!”
Look up a US/Canadian tv show called SCTV Second City Television which is where he started. Also
-John Candy
-Catherine O’Hara
-Eugene Levy
-Rick Moranis
-Martin Short
- I think this is a reasonable explanation of how Biff from 2015 knew how to use the Delorean, he certainly knows this year's technology and knows how Mr. Fusion works and once inside the time machine, no matter if it takes 1, 5 or 10 years, he will learn how to use it and come back the next minute,
- Not only Billy Zane is recognized in the movie, we have Casey Siemaszko, who wears the 3D glasses in the first one and here in the second one he is wearing the sunglasses even in the dark, he did several movies in the 80's like Stand By Me and others, I recommend watch his biggest hit, Three O'Clock High.
You have to watch superman the movie(the three hour version) it is thanks to that movie that there are currently many live action adaptations of comics
Mary
Nike actually created self laced shoes in 2015. During Jimmy Kimmel Live (American Late Night Show), both Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd (Marty & Doc) did cameos at the opening celebrating 30th Anniversary of Back to the Future. Michael worn 1st self laced Nike shoes.
Great Scott! after her Part 1 and Part 2 reactions really excited for Mary Cherry's Part 3 reaction!
I'm from Canada... In the 80's, NO ONE locked their doors. You could leave your bike on the front lawn all night and it would still be there the next day... Times were different.
Too many immigrants now
The movies soundtrack reminds me being a kid at Universal Studios riding the Back to the Future ride. great memories
12:30 Eh, you'd be surprised, in California LA. A lot of people leave their cars unlocked. So, no one would break the glass when they check it for stuff to steal. Some even have the trunk wide open.
Texaco (short for "The Texas Company") was a major oil company in the 80's, but it was bought out by a competitor in 2001. In 1985, it had been 81 years since the Chicago Cubs had won the World Series, and it turns out their prediction was only off by 1 year because the Cubs DID win the World Series in 2016 after only 108 years! One of the kids in the diner 6:52 was an 8 year old Elijah Wood.
Speaking of westerns, you might want to check out one set in Australia, "Quigley Down Under" (1990). It's a fun adventure with Tom Selleck and Alan Rickman.
I like the theory that this 2015 is a different reality because Doc & Marty went back and changed things.
I think Nike did produce a few power laces shoes in 2015 for fun.😂
Back to the Future was filmed by itself. It became at massive success (highest grossing film of 1985) that they decided to film 2 & 3 back to back.
YOUR REACTION IS WHOLESOME AF ❤
A little bit of Biff lives in everyone of us
We did leave our cars unlocked in the 80s, but we did not leave the keys in.
You made mention near the beginning that Jennifer looked familiar. That’s because Jennifer was now being played by Elisabeth Shue, ‘Aly with an “I” from the Karate Kid. Claudia Wells, the original Jennifer, had personal matters to tend to, so she dropped out of the role.
“So, you’re the SOB stealing my newspapers”. By 2015 the circulation of subscription newspapers delivered to homes was already on a steep decline. Events, local and around the world, were already hitting the internet within minutes of them happening. Physical newspapers were reporting ‘old news’ the day after and were becoming increasing thinner. Unlikely, Mr. Strickland would still have a physical newspaper subscription delivered to his doorstep.
I remember seeing all three of these classic time travel movies on the Sci Fi Channel as a kid. Love your reaction to this 💎of a sequel.
The computerized faces in the 80s café or people from the 80s. So you saw Michael Jackson, Ronald Reagan, the Ayatollah Khomeini, etc. The style match that of a character called Max Headroom. Look it up.
Love how you enjoyed the plot points, of little changes tampering with the entire future, and you went with 'just go back in time and kill him!' 🤣
Easter egg: the line "where we're going we don't need roads" is a Ronald Reagan quote
God I loved this franchise. I was born in ‘76 so I got to grow up with this and Ghostbusters and all the other greats. Back then going to a movie was so exciting, it was an event in my family, even if we just piled into the car to go to the Drive in we loved it.
I give them a lot of credit for getting the Cubs finally winning a championship again off by a single year. Didn't get it right with almost everything else but it's pretty amazing they got that one from a simple "the Cubs haven't won in a century" gag to setup the gambling angle.
Except you really can't: they were predicted to win against a team that doesn't exist, because even if the cubs DID win, it would never be against the Miami Gators.
Everybody focuses on the style, flying cars, etc., that they don't notice the actual predictions that came true: thumbprints for ID was not a thing in 1989, the return of 3D movies, TVs so thin you can hang on the wall, the drone walking the dog and taking the news picture, Google glasses, Florida having a baseball team (Florida didn't have one in 1989), voice activated appliances, and the biggest one: FaceTime.
I think you're too young to realize that things today that we take for granted were not a thing during that time.
so to explain one part of the movie for you, when old Biff returned to 2015, you commented that it looked like he was having a heart attack, in actuality he was being erased from time as his interfearence in the past was changing, and in reality wiping out that future, while in the time machine he was safe, but it caught up to him when he got out. similar to marty fading away in the first film as the potential change of his parents never meeting slowly caught up to him in the future before he stopped it.
Great reaction! All are great, but my favorite is part 2
They only filmed part 2 and 3 at the same time in 1989. Part 1 was filmed in 1985. Part 2 was released in 1989 and part 3 in 1990.
Such a classic iconic movie
The movie did predict some things correctly like the Cubs winning the World Series in 2016 just over The Cleveland Indians, not Miami. The nikey power laces are real, my friend has a pair. They cost a few grand though lol. Nice reaction Mary, I look forward to your reaction for part 3.
@10:58.....look carefully at the sign behind Biff. It says "Surf Vietnam", a reference to 'Apocalypse Now'. :)
Kudos on the Tom Wilson appreciation. He's actually supposed to be the nicest guy but his performance was so convincing (if not dramatic) that being cast for future roles became challenging to say the least...people thought he was ACTUALLY like that.
Also, anyone else see Elijah Wood in the cafe 80s scene? 😅
