+SteveDoidoUltimate not really, it was obvious that china was going to take hongkong back in 1997. In 1897 the UK had china give up Hong Kong for 100 years. Doesn't take a genius to figure out that once that contract expired China was going to take it back.,
+LeiFlux07 Considering how big fans they seem to be, they forgot that. If the car ran on Mr. Fusion, then the entire plot of BTTF3 would've been "Oh, let's get some trash and put it in the car and off we go!"
In the eighties, they thought we'd just keep making sequels to movies until we hit Jaws 19. But instead of making sequels, we just make reboots and remakes. Shit, they're probably working on a Jaws reboot.
+L McD "...go back to 1989 and show people this video just after they watched the movie." 26 years later and the only noticeable difference is we have lot more Islamic terrorism.
Actually guys, the trash they put on Mr.Fusion fuels only the flux capacitor but the car runs on regular gas. Dr. Brown says that in part 3 when they have to get the car running in 1885 and there's no gas.
you would not need a gas station. in 1880 petrol was sold in bottles. petrol is gas and it was very very cheap because back then there was really no use for it
correction for Mike: Mr. Fusion is for the plutonium, the car itself runs on gas. Marty and Doc address this in BTTF 3. that was the reason the car needed to be pushed by the train
The Flux Capacitor was powered by plutonium and the car's internal combustion engine was powered by gasoline. Mr. Fusion wasn't for the plutonium. Mr. Fusion was a upgrade Doc installed in the future that so he wouldn't need plutonium to power the Flux Capacitor.
its the flux capacitor that he converted to run on the garbage, because of the very fact that plutonium is hard to come by. it still needed gas, hence the problem in the 3rd movie.
+Clara Going Bye Bye He isn't saying anything about controlled weather. In the video, James remarks that it may be because he's a time traveler that he knows exactly when it will stop raining. The fact that he remarks on the accuracy of the weather forecasting shows that is not the case, him having come to the future has nothing to do with it, otherwise he wouldn't even bother looking at the watch. That is all he is saying.
+Clara Going Bye Bye If the scene was meant to impress that he'd already known when it would stop, he wouldn't have made any remark about weather predictions. It is very, very obviously a reference to future weather predicting technology. He gives a long, detailed description of how and why he knows when and where Marty's child will be, and yet doesn't do so for the weather? Makes no sense.
+Tony Spike I always thought Doc knew the rain was going to stop right on time because he was already there that day before he went back to 1985 to get Marty. Remember Doc was looking at his watch and he said "right on the tick".

"How about how the TVs in the movie were rectangles" That is a very good point James. I never caught that one before, but BTTF2 nailed 16x9 aspect ratio on home TVs long before the now-common widescreen was around.
+CF-105 Games I still laugh no one just cut the power. The off position was shown opened. So, if it had springs that clamp down, when powered off. It would be wasting power while it's off. To keep it idling open like that. Logic hole for a laugh.

+JsRetroVideoGames Except that Doc told Marty to not come back for him. He left the time machine hidden for Marty to find and get back home to 1985.

WHY DOES OUR FUTURE HAVE TO SUCK?!!!!!!! Eh, Back to the Future 3 is my favourite, so I can probably live with this... but still, no self lacing shoes. NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
chillin chum It's a joke buddy. I'm making fun of how unsuccessful we have been with these things. We still have it pretty alright these days... I'd still like to have a set of self lacing shoes, but eh, I'll live
+MetroidFan I wish I could:( I am going to watch one today, one tomorrow, and then the third on Friday, because I have so much stuff going on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
+MetroidFan I'm going to watch the Part 2 at the cinema today and then, this saturday is going to be a Back To The Future Marathon at the cinema...I'm going that one too.
+Brian Colborn That is part of the joke. Using the rule of 30, in the 80's the nostalgia was for the "50's Diner" so in 2015 we should be nostalgic for an "80's Cafe" And as the line that Doc says "It's one of those nostalgic places that was not done very well" implying what we saw then in the 1980's that "50's Diners" didn't really replicate the typical 1950 experience of restaurants as well as the people who would have remembered them. Those types of places are idealized representations of what we would have liked a cafe/diner to be in the 50/80s. That said, why is there not a "Cafe 80's" chain across the country?
26:25 But Doc said something like "Too bad the post office is not as reliable as the weather service", doesn't that imply that they have basically found a way to control the weather? The rain stopped so quickly and the clouds disappeared unnaturally fast.
+Marek Mettälä I always took it as the weather service has narrowed down their science of predicting weather that they are accurate down to the second rather than someone or something that could control the weather.
In the late 90s, early 2000s we had a channel where you could see all the channels in miniature live with no sound, so you could see witch show was on what channel. I guess that counts. Why don't we have that anymore? It was very convenient. Even with guides it's very handy to zap to that channel to look what's interesting to watch
+AvatarAndKataangFan PIP (Picture in Picture) that was a big thing, I think it went away because now the TV is just getting information from a tuner box into an input, so no way to separate two feeds like when the TV was doing the tuning work of the box. In this regard we have gone back to the 1980's where you have to have a box hooked to your TV for it to receive a signal. I remember the days when you just hooked up one cable to the back of the TV and turned it on.
Still one of my favourite futuristic things is the ability to explore virtual reality worlds with glasses or a headset - oh and the amazing xr glasses that give you a cool large floating screen for your entertainment anywhere you want, owning the Viture xr glasses really feels like living in the future
For the Cell phone emergency things, 2 points: - There is still emergency line phone booth on point where they expect an emergency to happens but no one to be around (Highway especially have those, or at least should) - You can use most cell phone to pass emergency call even if you do not own them (and those do not know the unlocking combination). That way if someone is unconscious: you can still use their own phone to call the emergency services.
You guys forgot that Mr. Fusion only powered the flux capacitor. In Back to the Future 3, Doc Brown says that the Delorean's engine always ran on ordinary gas. So obviously gasoline is still used in the year 2015 of the Back to the Future movies. The baseball team is the Chicago Cubs, who are actually in the MLB playoffs now. They might actually go to the World Series this year.
1989: We'll have flying cars, hoverboards, self drying jackets, self lacing shoes, dehydrated pizzas, vr, video chat and flat screen tvs in the future 2021: We got flat screen tvs, vr, video chat and electric cars but there's also a pandemic
I was really surprised to learn that none of you guys follow baseball at all. I mean to not even be aware about the Red Sox ending their drought in 2004 or to hear about the Cubs in the news or anything. That's a pretty difficult thing to accomplish in North America. But then again, with all of the content that you guys put out I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Especially this October. Thanks a lot for everything you do, it's greatly appreciated!
There are still pay-phones at the airport, I had to use one recently when my family forgot to pick me up and I was coming from Taiwan so my cellphone didn't have service.
+AlexanderArts We have a payphone at the end of our street almost, I think it's always been there. There's also one on the way to the school I used to go to, so I was always used to seeing them oddly enough.
One time I was at a bus station and I needed to be picked up by family and my phone was out of battery, but when I tried to use the payphone it just kept spitting out my coins! I ended up having to borrow someone's smartphone. If anything payphones need a 2015/future upgrade..
+Alex Rud This. Some still exist. Not a lot though. They're few and far between. It's more convenient to just ask a store if you can make a local call. Most of them won't care. Worst case scenario you ask a stranger and explain how your situation that warrants a call. (Car broke down, it's in a ditch, I need to call a tow truck, etc). It's kind of nice when "everyone" has a phone.
At about 4:45 Mike and James are discussing Mr. Fusion. They were wrong though, Mr. Fusion didn't power the engine of the car, only the hover system and the flux capacitor. This was specifically brought up in the third film when Marty tells Doc about the torn gas line on the DeLorean he brought with him. Doc explains that Mr. Fusion only powered the electrical systems, not the car itself. I'm not bashing the films because they're nostalgia overload for me and a great memory of my childhood, but I always wondered why they never just went back to the DeLorean that Doc brought with him originally and just siphoned the gas from that one. And lastly, in regards to the third film, Doc makes something of a big deal from the lack of available gasoline, but Gasoline was a well-known byproduct of oil refinement as early as 1850, even if they couldn't find any, surely Doc Brown could find some easily accessible crude oil and simple refined his own. If the man can build a working refrigeration and ice-making unit and a time machine from a train that can hover then surely a minor thing like oil refinement isn't outside of his capabilities.
HOly shit this was 2 years ago! God damn time flies by fast..... young people! Chase your dreams because someday you'll turn around and be 31 years old and you're like "wtf wasn't I just 21?" and it only gets faster.
The reason Mike we all don't have electric cars by now is the tech just wasn't their to make it worth while. In reality what we did is make cars extremely fuel efficient,create hybrids that can run on both; and no use other forms of less pollution to run cars. Most electricity at the time was still run off coal now it is a mix of all forms not just one. So we are far far more energy efficient than we were in the 80s it just didn't go the route of pure electric.
+Emperor Nero Electric cars aren't much more fuel efficient than petrol cars anyways, you're just shifting the exhaust fumes and waste from your vehicle to the local coal/nuclear powered power station.
Just take a moment and think about it......WE ARE IN 2015.when i was was a kid this seemed a hundred yrs away but yet we are living it. MIND BLOWN!!!!!
+XpRnz No they are not. That is only a handful and it's charity auction only. It's not for the general public. You can't walk into WalMart and buy them.
Crazy to think there are now: 7 Star Wars films 5 Indiana jones films about 6 or 7 transformers films 6 films in the Jurassic park franchise 2 beetlejuice films 4 matrix films 4 Toy Story films 6 terminator films
WORNG!! The Flux Capacitor ran on Mr Fusion the car itself and this is a quote from doc brown in the third movie "Mr fusion runs the flux Capacitor the car itself runs on ordinary gasoline it always has there wont be a gas station around her for 50 years."
a few points I'd like to make to clarify things. 1. If flying cars where created, it would be a luxury for the rich as I'm assuming that they would run on Jet fuel ''kerosene'' which would be difficult to obtain. 2. The Future could have crazy fashion, as fashion is known for fluctuating between, crazy over the top and then back to casual. 3. They were right about the 3D craze in cinemas as the Jaws movie is in a holmax Theater
+DD Gaming Keep in mind that you would _need_ a _human to program a computer_ to make it even capable of coming to the conclusion that "humans are the problem" then furthering it to "and they must be destroyed". Hope that brings some measure of comfort.
I imagine James the phone booths of the future to be a lot like the fountain soda machines of the present. Where the booths would be touch sensitive and have a snack machine attached

youdontknowenough Expensive... Fuck! I was so looking forward to owning a pair
The car still runs on fuel. Mr fusion was used to power the flux capacitor. In part 3, Marty ruptured a fuel line. Thats why they needed the train.
Futurama had a interesting take on what future phonebooths could be like
Oh the suicide booths? 😬
He didn't predict the weather. Like you said, the rain stopped very abruptly. It's less weather prediction and more weather control.
+Kaleb Levermore-Rich H.A.A.R.P. BttFII predicted H.A.A.R.P.!
Data! Why did you come back to the past?
Patrick Stewart's hover chair in "X-Men: Days of Future Past" was a real hover chair that he could get around in.
Is this the 80's or 2015! We're now in time! HOLY SHIT!
Spaceballs took the sequels to the next level with Rocky five... thousand.
It brings back great ol' times in Back to the Future 2.
Hovering Board, Self-lacing shoes, and time machine car. lol
I'm watching all three movies today, anyone else?!
+MetroidFan Way ahead of you!
+MetroidFan I wish I could:( I am going to watch one today, one tomorrow, and then the third on Friday, because I have so much stuff going on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Going to soon
Me too! Amazon has all three on Prime Instant Video! "When this Baby hits 88 mph your gonna see some serious Shit!"
+MetroidFan I'm going to watch the Part 2 at the cinema today and then, this saturday is going to be a Back To The Future Marathon at the cinema...I'm going that one too.
In my town, we have a classic café, if that counts. The only difference is that it's more into the 50's/60's.
+Brian Colborn That is part of the joke. Using the rule of 30, in the 80's the nostalgia was for the "50's Diner" so in 2015 we should be nostalgic for an "80's Cafe" And as the line that Doc says "It's one of those nostalgic places that was not done very well" implying what we saw then in the 1980's that "50's Diners" didn't really replicate the typical 1950 experience of restaurants as well as the people who would have remembered them. Those types of places are idealized representations of what we would have liked a cafe/diner to be in the 50/80s. That said, why is there not a "Cafe 80's" chain across the country?
Isn't it the 20 year rule and not the 30 year rule ?It definitely makes more sense.
***** Gotta break a few eggs to make an omelet
I demand a video where you three sit around and talk about sports. That'd be freaking hilarious I bet.
welcome to the future morty
uhhhh I don't know about this Rick
HEY I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!!!!
+Fletcher Gaming two words... "Puffy Vagina"
M-MORTY LOOK WE'RE IN THE FUTURE MORTY WE'RE IN THE *burp* FUCKING FUTURE MORTY
Get schwifty
26:25
But Doc said something like "Too bad the post office is not as reliable as the weather service", doesn't that imply that they have basically found a way to control the weather? The rain stopped so quickly and the clouds disappeared unnaturally fast.
+Marek Mettälä I always took it as the weather service has narrowed down their science of predicting weather that they are accurate down to the second rather than someone or something that could control the weather.
There still are phone booths everywhere in Canada though.
+Enigma I just saw one today in Vancouver! near Alma & 4th (closer to 5th)
Enigma lol
Theyre useful if you need to make a call without being traced
What part of Canada you from?
The cold part.
What I learned here. Mike does not understand how basic physics works lol.
You forgot about the bionic implants that Griff and his gang had, I think that was a great prediction because today robotics have become so advanced
Watching this in 2021 because on Oct 21, 2015 I was actually back in 1885 playing violin for ZZ Top.
They totally missed the INTERNET...
Was that mention in the movie?
+TheFVchannel no. Internet is no extinct in the films.
ComeliaO7 I know, that's what I was trying to say
+Casey C
The internet? Is that thing still around?
+Casey C Nobody saw that coming. Most underrated invention ever.
In the late 90s, early 2000s we had a channel where you could see all the channels in miniature live with no sound, so you could see witch show was on what channel. I guess that counts.
Why don't we have that anymore? It was very convenient. Even with guides it's very handy to zap to that channel to look what's interesting to watch
+AvatarAndKataangFan PIP (Picture in Picture) that was a big thing, I think it went away because now the TV is just getting information from a tuner box into an input, so no way to separate two feeds like when the TV was doing the tuning work of the box. In this regard we have gone back to the 1980's where you have to have a box hooked to your TV for it to receive a signal. I remember the days when you just hooked up one cable to the back of the TV and turned it on.
+AvatarAndKataangFan um... we still do. As far as I know. AT&T cable still does that.
I recall those channels. I think they were for various sports, like one channel will play six different football channels at once.
+FilmStrife Funny, because every electronic product (phone, fax-machine, and I'm assuming the cable) was from AT&T. :)
"Picture in picture"
Still one of my favourite futuristic things is the ability to explore virtual reality worlds with glasses or a headset - oh and the amazing xr glasses that give you a cool large floating screen for your entertainment anywhere you want, owning the Viture xr glasses really feels like living in the future
That dog joke is actually a Seinfeld joke from his old standup fyi
He's holding that sports almanac forever I woulda put it down by now
It weights nothing dude...
If he puts it down Biff might steal it
For the Cell phone emergency things, 2 points:
- There is still emergency line phone booth on point where they expect an emergency to happens but no one to be around (Highway especially have those, or at least should)
- You can use most cell phone to pass emergency call even if you do not own them (and those do not know the unlocking combination). That way if someone is unconscious: you can still use their own phone to call the emergency services.
Lavos - The Day of Reckoning = 1999
That actually did happen and you are just in the proto dome right now hooked up to a machine that is creating the reality for you...its true.
I miss the old gang
It’s weird watching this 2 years later and noticing how much the tech they were talking about evolved
It is, shows the advancements in technology
You guys forgot that Mr. Fusion only powered the flux capacitor. In Back to the Future 3, Doc Brown says that the Delorean's engine always ran on ordinary gas. So obviously gasoline is still used in the year 2015 of the Back to the Future movies. The baseball team is the Chicago Cubs, who are actually in the MLB playoffs now. They might actually go to the World Series this year.
+KdogPrime Unfortunately Cubbies didn't make it this year :(
The curse continues...
The Running Man! 2017!
The future is now.
vader545 yee
The Silenceblox whaa whaaa! haha
I fucking love it when Mike is high and just goes on his philosophical rants.
The Blade Runner Future is supposed to happen in 2019.
Or what about running man future 2017 where we still use cassette tapes
+Sir Grim Locksmith VIII Totally, America as a police state? Hah! Heh... heh.... :-I
If Trump becomes president, then the world might turn out like Blade Runner
Jacob Lapsley He's going to bring a massive influx of Asian immigration and create Androids?!
+TheDrunkenCelt Well the immigrants wouldn't be coming from Mexico...
Google Glass was discontinued.
It's a Microsoft product
How embarrassing
1989: We'll have flying cars, hoverboards, self drying jackets, self lacing shoes, dehydrated pizzas, vr, video chat and flat screen tvs in the future
2021: We got flat screen tvs, vr, video chat and electric cars but there's also a pandemic
Back To The Future never predicted 3D printers, did it?
+xMetalx59x - Touch'e. I can just make my own pepperoni pizza in about a day's worth :)
+Joe Kerr A day, are you stupid? It takes less than an hour to prepare a *REAL* pizza from scratch.
MrWolfSnack - Familiar with sarcasm much? Moron.
***** - He's being a canis scrotum, hence the name; "MrWolfSack".
+xMetalx59x It should have. Additive Manufacturing equipment was introduced around the time the movie was released, but whatever.
The Running Man should be on our TVs in 2017
I was really surprised to learn that none of you guys follow baseball at all. I mean to not even be aware about the Red Sox ending their drought in 2004 or to hear about the Cubs in the news or anything. That's a pretty difficult thing to accomplish in North America.
But then again, with all of the content that you guys put out I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Especially this October.
Thanks a lot for everything you do, it's greatly appreciated!
There are still pay-phones at the airport, I had to use one recently when my family forgot to pick me up and I was coming from Taiwan so my cellphone didn't have service.
+AlexanderArts We have a payphone at the end of our street almost, I think it's always been there. There's also one on the way to the school I used to go to, so I was always used to seeing them oddly enough.
I still see phone "booths" on the street. A lot of them are missing the phone itself, but some still work.
One time I was at a bus station and I needed to be picked up by family and my phone was out of battery, but when I tried to use the payphone it just kept spitting out my coins! I ended up having to borrow someone's smartphone. If anything payphones need a 2015/future upgrade..
+Alex Rud This. Some still exist. Not a lot though. They're few and far between. It's more convenient to just ask a store if you can make a local call. Most of them won't care. Worst case scenario you ask a stranger and explain how your situation that warrants a call. (Car broke down, it's in a ditch, I need to call a tow truck, etc). It's kind of nice when "everyone" has a phone.
+Hyreia oh, I agree with you. just pointing out there pay phones still exist. I should start an instagram account and just photograph payphones.
even pokemon had interactive calls where you could see each other's faces :) I was like, wow...i wish i could do that.
In 2020, in Arizona, we still have phone booths. Alot of them don't work, but some are still activated.
Wow in America they don't have telephone boxes, we still do here in England
Yea there are barley any pay phones let alone phone booths*
Guys, John Spartan from Demolition Man is unfrozen in 2032, which is definitely in your lifetimes.
We MUST HAVE the three seashells by then!

At about 4:45 Mike and James are discussing Mr. Fusion. They were wrong though, Mr. Fusion didn't power the engine of the car, only the hover system and the flux capacitor. This was specifically brought up in the third film when Marty tells Doc about the torn gas line on the DeLorean he brought with him. Doc explains that Mr. Fusion only powered the electrical systems, not the car itself.
I'm not bashing the films because they're nostalgia overload for me and a great memory of my childhood, but I always wondered why they never just went back to the DeLorean that Doc brought with him originally and just siphoned the gas from that one.
And lastly, in regards to the third film, Doc makes something of a big deal from the lack of available gasoline, but Gasoline was a well-known byproduct of oil refinement as early as 1850, even if they couldn't find any, surely Doc Brown could find some easily accessible crude oil and simple refined his own. If the man can build a working refrigeration and ice-making unit and a time machine from a train that can hover then surely a minor thing like oil refinement isn't outside of his capabilities.
Wait, is that Kyle Justin? I feel like I haven't seen him in ages.
Yeah it's been a while since he's been on here. He makes surprise appearances on James and Mike Mondays sometimes though
kyle is fucking awesome for his intros to avgn
HOly shit this was 2 years ago! God damn time flies by fast..... young people! Chase your dreams because someday you'll turn around and be 31 years old and you're like "wtf wasn't I just 21?" and it only gets faster.
according to the 3rd movie, the "Mr Fusion" powers the time circuits. (replacing the plutonium) but the Car still runs on gas to get it up to 88 MPH.
It turns out the Cubs didn't win until 2016. Also ads for vacationing in Vietnam are a reality.
well at least they were in the play offs
The reason Mike we all don't have electric cars by now is the tech just wasn't their to make it worth while. In reality what we did is make cars extremely fuel efficient,create hybrids that can run on both; and no use other forms of less pollution to run cars. Most electricity at the time was still run off coal now it is a mix of all forms not just one. So we are far far more energy efficient than we were in the 80s it just didn't go the route of pure electric.
AriesT
I said it wasn't there it is not,but it wasn't throughout the time.
+Emperor Nero Electric cars aren't much more fuel efficient than petrol cars anyways, you're just shifting the exhaust fumes and waste from your vehicle to the local coal/nuclear powered power station.
GM killed the electric car
+Nate Bryant Really? Why is the Volt a thing then?
+YoshiYogurt a better question is: why did we have to wait until the volt? We had the EV1 in 96. Also, it's the name of a movie.
Just take a moment and think about it......WE ARE IN 2015.when i was was a kid this seemed a hundred yrs away but yet we are living it. MIND BLOWN!!!!!
We didn't get those self lacing Nike sneakers. That's bullshit.
XpRnz No they aren't. Michael J. Fox has one of the only pairs and more will be auctioned off next year. Sorry to say. :/
+XpRnz No they are not. That is only a handful and it's charity auction only. It's not for the general public. You can't walk into WalMart and buy them.
+Callumbuddy go and buy it at Nike store
+Callumbuddy go and buy it at Nike store
+darude sandstorm They're not gonna be sold at the Nike store, dumbass.
The car still runs on gas. See BttF3. Mr. Fusion just powers the flux capacitor.
Only 30 years for cold fusion? They were smoking something!
+GamerWho AVGN would have a Fux Capacitor. It would always be fully charged!
spindalis79 Yeah and Mr Fusion would be Mr Fuck-sion and would run off Rolling Rock
+spindalis79 AVGN allready has a fux capacitor.
That's how he takes you back to the past, to play the shitty games that suck ass.
Ninjawa His copy of Jaws is probably the one in the store Marty buys the Almanac from.
Also, you guys are super inspiring and incredibly fun to watch. Thank you :)
Can I get your copy of Jaws on NES from that antique store opening up in Hill Valley?
Lol I forgot about that! What happened to it James?!
+Llewellen Higginson-Ford (PainlessPentagram) have you got your Jaws 19 game yet?
Crazy to think there are now:
7 Star Wars films
5 Indiana jones films
about 6 or 7 transformers films
6 films in the Jurassic park franchise
2 beetlejuice films
4 matrix films
4 Toy Story films
6 terminator films
Who else is going to binge watch all the movies now?! :)
Football island, hell basically. I couldn't agree more!
The aliens observing earth about dogs is from Jerry Seinfeld stand-up
Id assume the aliens would just think that the dogs are some sort of slaves which they kinda are to be fair.
WORNG!! The Flux Capacitor ran on Mr Fusion the car itself and this is a quote from doc brown in the third movie "Mr fusion runs the flux Capacitor the car itself runs on ordinary gasoline it always has there wont be a gas station around her for 50 years."
MrDiddles AKA PapaBrownman
I think you might be worng
*LOL* You spelled "WRONG" wrong... ;D
In this case, 2 wrongs *don't* make a right.
a few points I'd like to make to clarify things.
1. If flying cars where created, it would be a luxury for the rich as I'm assuming that they would run on Jet fuel ''kerosene'' which would be difficult to obtain.
2. The Future could have crazy fashion, as fashion is known for fluctuating between, crazy over the top and then back to casual.
3. They were right about the 3D craze in cinemas as the Jaws movie is in a holmax Theater
and now we even have 4d films with odours, changing temperatures and moving seats!
1985: We will have flying cars and hoverboards in the future

Idiocracy happened in the 1990, 2000s and 2010s.
Well, there's the Skynet wars in the 2020s.
Oh crap
+DD Gaming Keep in mind that you would _need_ a _human to program a computer_ to make it even capable of coming to the conclusion that "humans are the problem" then furthering it to "and they must be destroyed".
Hope that brings some measure of comfort.
+UndeadCookieMonster Insane - maybe even bored - but not evil.
+ZomgRuler Skynet goes live April 19th, 2011
Don't forget James, you still have to do that review on raid 2020 in... Well, 2020.
Modern Times staring Charlie Chaplin did the Skype related thing in 1936 I believe. I mean that was before Television even. How weird is that? Lol
You're right.
+Neo Jeo You're right saying hes right.
+coooooooooool1000
You're right, he's right saying the other guy was right.
badarbiter
You're right. He was right saying the other guy was right that said I'm right... Right?
Since u guys left im left with me as the last left left really lefty left
2020 Tokyo Olympics in Akira
Keith Rozett good movie
I imagine James the phone booths of the future to be a lot like the fountain soda machines of the present. Where the booths would be touch sensitive and have a snack machine attached
I think they should make a 4th one which explains why things didnt turn out the way they were "supposed" too with time lines and stuff...
Probably an alternate reality
it will be too preachy with global warming supporters opinions.
Director of BTTF said they're not going to make a 4th movie.
Remember when Marty and Doc destroyed the train and didn't let those people get to their destination in BTTF3? Yeah...
TheFVchannel they didnt destroy the train.... they took it Back....... Back to the Future...... Three
