  • Part one of a conversation with Christopher Lloyd, star of Taxi and Back To The Future
    I was really excited to meet him - he’s always been one of my favorite actors. He seems to always find the quirkiest parts - or maybe that’s just what he turns them into. Like many others, I first became aware of him on Taxi - but of course later he went onto major film stardom in movies like Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Star Trek 3, The Addams Family and more.
    In the first part of our chat, we’ll talk about how Christopher Lloyd got started - his first journey to Hollywood, his role in One Flew Over the Cukoo’s Nest, and how he landed his breakout role as Reverend Jim on the hit sitcom, Taxi.

    The Jim character went from being a fun side note to almost taking over the show. You could see just how much the writers began to depend of Christopher Lloyd to keep them the show going.

    Somehow Taxi eluded me in my childhood, but thanks to Hulu I am now obsessed. Great show, best of Christopher Lloyd by far. I am actually currently watching the episode a wrecking ball goes through his apartment while he's eating cereal!

    One great thing (amongst many) about BTTF is that its really can't be remade. That specific dichotomy between the 50's and 80's is just something that I don't think can be transplanted to today. What's funny is that the prediction of the Cubs finally winning a World Series was only off by a year.

      Good news is Robert Zemeckis said himself it will never be remade as long as he is alive. He won't give anyone the rights because the trilogy is just near perfect.

    Christopher has brought so much crazy fun to me and millions of other people, but I guess I'm kinda sad to see how he is so reserved and guarded in real life. Nothing wrong with that. I have Aspergers, so I'm all about reserved and guarded, but it makes me think, did he actually enjoy these crazy, fun performances or was it just work to him? Maybe he's just slowed down with age or health issues or something. One of my favourite actors ever. God bless him.

    • @Jamie_Case
      @Jamie_Case 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      He should get more credit as a serious actor but I think this is overshadowed by his comedy roles. Perhaps that's why he seems a bit sour.

    In the original script Professor Brown puts Marty in a refrigerator at ground zero of a nuclear test. Then Marty is back in 1982 in the desert in the old refrigerator. The professor arrives to pick him up in a helicopter he invented and explains he never rebuilt a time machine and Marty had just disappeared in a movie theater in 1982 a little earlier. The movie script we saw never explained how there would be 2 Deloreans.
