/* ---- VIDEO INFORMATION ---- */
Welcome to the heavy spoilers show I'm your host Paul aka Steven Spoilsberg and this video we're breaking down Back To The Future.
The movie kickstarted one of the best trilogies of all time and today we're gonna be going through it all. Selected by the national film registry for film preservation this is easily one of the best movies ever made and I can't wait to talk about it in-depth. Pretty much everyone I know who went to film schools in love with this movie and the scripts something that's pretty much taught in every university. This is something where almost every line in it has a payoff at some point and I was blown away when revisiting it with a more critical eye.
So come with me Morty...sorry Marty...(burp) as we travel to the past and talk about Back To The Future.
-
Now the film popped up as an idea in Bob Gales head when he was one day going through his dad old yearbook. Seeing his pops as a teen made him think about his past and what life mustve been like when he was in school. Being a dad myself yeah..I feel like...will my kids remember how cool I was or will they just think 'what a f**king gimp.' It's something that we as kids often don't think about our parents either and all the wild things we've done our parents probably did too.

man don't know that graffiti says lorenzo de caliche.
That's not a punching bag. That is a top load, military style, duffle bag.
There is no way anyone who's not a bodybuilder could so easily along a punching bag of that size over their shoulder, and not fall backwards.
Doc reminds me of the white rabbit in Alice in wonderland
The rabbit is white, doc dress in white, the rabbit seems to have anxiety/hyper and doc seems to have anxiety and hyper also the rabbit is fascinated by time and do does the rabbit in Alice in wonderland
“I’ve seen this one! This is a classic.”
It’s brand new
Alright calm down Steve Rodgers
@@sentryzero I saw it on a rerun
Yeah, this is the one where Marty dresses up as a man from space!
It's where I first learned how to make sure my flux capacitor keeps fluxing... Who knows where I'd be without that.
“Why is an old man talking to a teenager? Is he a pedophile?”
For those who are terminally online, it’s perfectly socially acceptable to talk to and even hang out with your neighbors in real life.
Rumor has it.
But yeah, it's completely fine to hang out with ppl younger than you. Just not pedophiles.
As a teenager working at a golf course, I hung out with a lot of old guys who were World War II vets. It was awesome and they were some of the coolest people I ever met.
@@chrisg2214 it’s fine it f u hang out with them but NOT if they are hanging out with u 😂
Amen Brother. Hanging out Older men made me a better person. Only online Geeks think that way.
Rupert Murdoch was largely responsible for the pedo scares of the 90's, making it a big focus of his media empires because the witch hunting, fear, and speculation sold newspapers.
I like how Doc is credited with the line, "If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything," but Doc never actually says it in the movies.
It's great that George wasn't just changed from standing up to Biff, but also indirectly from Doc's words.
That quote should be modified to "If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything at the else of everything else". Great things can not be done without sacrifice of course.
yeah but 16:18
@@joelpichette yeah but 16:15
I always felt that Doc was not nefarious at all. Everyone probably his own family thought he was nuts. Marty was the only one that Doc ever met that took him seriously. So they became friends. And nothing else they were just friends.
With benefits!😃
🤡@@Lunatic5306
Also they're both outsiders.
A couple misfits finding each other despite not having much in common isn't rare.
@@abegarfield7031 That's exactly as I always saw Marty & Doc's friendship (perhaps because I've always been a misfit myself who forms friendships with unlikely people...friendships in which those involved accept the other for who they are, and eschew societal norms & conformity).
I always see Doc as the father Marty never had 🤷🏾♀️
I like to think that Marty's 1955 pay phone call to Doc Brown (before arriving at his home) was what caused Doc to slip while hanging the clock. That way, Marty would have inadvertently helped Doc Brown invent the very time travel that would send him back to 1955 to make that phone call.
Hah! Nice!
I love this!
That goes contrary to how the series portrays time travel though.
This would create a paradox. If the phone call is what caused him to slip and fall, then how did Marty originally get there to make the phone call? The future cannot happen before the past. The events of how he created time travel cannot include Marty, as these events need to be separate in order for Marty to able to be a part of them.
@@joceton
It happens as Marty plays Johnny b goode though. ^^
I think that it could be that originally Chuck Berry and Doc got their idea from somewhere else, but then Marty changed the point of origin m, causing some sort of closed time loop.
Impossible catch 22, but that's time travel for you. ^^
My late father laughed so hard over the uncle Joey scenes that he had tears coming out of his eyes and had to leave the room for a few mins to catch his breath.
Thank you to all the purple involved with these movies. Have great memories
No lies. I am a MASSIVE BTTF fan. I've watched countless behind the scenes, making of docs, and my close friend actually worked on the second film. You managed to find some nuggets I've never heard before nor caught in the movie. Well done!!!
Ah thanks so much, always means a lot when people say that
@@heavyspoilers Keep up the great work.
@@LookAtThisRockI thought you were saying you were a massive Biff fan, but it was a typo. Then I used my brain.
@@therealking6202 "Hello!!! McFly!!! Anyone in there??" 😄
@@therealking6202 😂 I swear I just did the exact same thing 😵💫
Marty isn't carrying a punching bag, that's a military style "sausage bag"
That's what I was thinking...
that's what i would call it
Yes.
I'm 31 years old and back to the future has always been my favorite. They are nostalgic for me but also deeply entertaining. They were perfect in all of their ways, it didn't take itself TOO seriously but also made rules and set the tone for time travel movies for years to come
As an adult and seeing this movie as a kid, I have a completely different look at it.
Marty never got to see his family become what they are at the end. It basically was a shock. The childhood he experienced never happened. To me, that's freaking sad.
The explanation I’ve heard from somewhere, is that over time his new present would become _his_ present. Similar to how that the photo of his siblings started to fade away while he was in 1955 and his life was being erased by a change in 1955, his old life memories (from his original childhood) would fade and all Marty would be able to remember eventually would be his new life (after his life changed due to his going back in time).
They could have canonized this in the later entries, but they didn’t. So we’re just left to guess.
@@jeffreycarman2185 Sounds better than how Cracked said would happen, basically that Marty was destined for a rubber room in an asylum because of his memories not meshing with reality
I think he just accepted what was the new reality, regardless of what happened in his past.
Eric Stoltz, is that you?
@@QC_Charlottean yes
A few years ago, my wife and I sat our young teen son down and said we were watching the BTTF trilogy since we were snowed in.
He complained that he didn't want to see "some crappy 80's movie".
By the time the train scene was happening at the end of 3, he was jumping up and down on the couch, cheering for Marty and Doc at the top of his lungs.
Edit: my grandparents LOVED this movie.
lol, we call this proper parenting
@@raverfox420 I told him when it was over that I'd never knowingly make him watch a turd, only good movies are shown at our house.
@@jkdbuck7670 lol, well refer to my previous comment on this matter XD
@@jkdbuck7670 cant say it enough, thast great parenting right there
"Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet, but your kids are gonna LOVE it."
The surname prefix "Mc" means "son of", so since Eric Stoltz was playing the son of Jeff Goldblum's original Fly in The Fly 2, that means he went from Marty McFly to Martin son of the Fly.
McBrundelfly?
In the original timeline, Marty's brother Dave works for Burger King and in the revised timeline, he's wearing a nice suit. I like to think that he still works for Burger King, but as a district manager or at the franchising office. Dave worked hard and made his way up the ladder.
Interesting theory. I like it.
now the burger king cameo makes more sense.
If he was a district manager he wouldn't be wearing a suit. More than likely he would be dressed in a pair of khaki's and a polo shirt with Burger King on it. I know this because I worked in fast food in this era and that's how the district managers usually dressed when visiting the stores. Also, the word you're looking for is ladder not latter.
still living at home though?
@@garygarside9782 I don't think he was. I think Dave came over, lent his parents his car (theirs was being waxed by Biff) so they could go play tennis while he had breakfast.
The honeymooners episode didn't actually air until the following month and was missed in the video. It was released in 1955 but... in the future:
The Man from Space
After travelling back in time to November 5, 1955, Marty McFly watches it with his future mother Lorraine Baines and her family, describing it as a classic. In reality, this episode aired on December 31, 1955 while The Sleepwalker (1955) aired on November 5, 1955.
The time between when this movie was made and now is greater than the travel back of 30 years....
Also, more time has passed between 'Revenge of the Sith' and today than 'Return of the Jedi' to 'Phantom Menace'. 😢
Who keeps letting this happen?!
Doc Brown hanging off the clock is an homage to the 1923 silent film "Safety Last!", where Harold Lloyd famously hangs off of a clock...for real. One of the most dangerous stunts of all time (as time travel also would be).
Lloyd had scaffold around him for the shoot and the hands had to be reinforced so he could wave his legs about.
Forced perspective is a heck of a thing that makes people believe something that isn't real. Lloyd was reasonably safe (considering safety standards in 1923) filming that movie, and also had a stunt man doing a lot of the scenes since Lloyd's insurance company wouldn't allow him to do them himself.
Yup.@@Hezkezl
Marty's parents also watched him grow and morph into the guy they met for a week in high school. when you look at photos of people you've known for 20+ years they look so different but you never noticed they really changed. Without a photo to look at and compare, they'd never notice the similarity.
Back to the Future is an absolute masterpiece
Statler is also shown throughout the trilogy, according to Bob Gale himself with Statler Toyota manufacturing the 4x4 Marty drives by the end of the first and last movie. They sold horses in 1885 and Studebakers in 1955.
Spielberg wasn't worried someone would use a fridge to survive a nuke, he was worried kids would climb into refrigerators. That's a legit fear because children have gotten trapped in abandoned refrigerators before. Ones left out in places like a junkyard.
Older fridges had a latch on the outside only so they can't be opened from the inside and even newer ones are still an issue because the door could get blocked. There were even PSAs about it. Spielberg had a good point.
There was a Punky Brewster episode in which that exact thing happened to Cherie (part of the plot involves a CPR lesson at school, and Punky ends up saving Cherie by performing CPR on her). That shit traumatized me as a kid!
Love all these videos. Looking forward to the rest of the series! These movies made my childhood.
Thank you
I'm begging you to do 3 o'clock High, I know you've seen it and love it. 🙏🏽
The 1955 mayor and Red the bum are not supposed to be the same character.
The Brown mansion didn't burn down because of the fire extinguisher being emptied in the demonstration for Marty. The mansion also burned down in the unaltered timeline (where the ledge on the clock tower is still intact and the mall is still the Twin Pines Mall) without Doc interacting with Marty.
36:32 "Now back at Doc's we see he's trying to watch the end of the tape but he refuses to hear what happens next. However, as we know, he'll eventually play it." That sounds like the tape had something to do with him knowing about his fate, but he learns that from the letter. He actually watched the tape to the end in that scene: Marty stops filming when Doc screams to him that he should run, and we hear that when 55 Doc plays the tape. Somehow many people seem to think that Marty had filmed Doc being killed.
40:22 "And Marty tells Lorraine his true name." He already told her when she pointed out the name on his underwear. In fact, in this scene here he doesn't even mention his name.
40:32 There is another reason for this composition. Michael J. Fox is short, and having the much taller Crispin Glover or Chris Lloyd in the background makes it look less awkward for them when they talk to each other. (The height difference is also the reason why Doc is often hunched over when he stands next to Marty.)
Marty wasn't carrying a punching bag, that's a military duffel bag.
C Bag
@@scottp7413it's an A and B bag... Before a C bag, Grunt. 😂🤦♂️👍
The Doc Brown/Marty relationship may be based on Prof. Lidenbrock and his nephew Axel in Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth. In the 1959 movie, Alec McEwan is a student of Prof. Lindenbrook and engaged to his niece, Jenny. Notice that Marty McFly's girlfriend is called Jennifer.
Neither Jenny/Jennifer join the hero on his adventures.
In Part 3, Doc Brown reveals that Jules Verne is his favorite writer and names his children Jules and Verne.
I was fortunate enough to be on both Hill Valley square sets before it burned down. I was on the Backlot of Hill Valley square in the 80's and then again on set when they were filming the 2015 future Hill Valley square scenes with all the futuristic cars, freeway on ramp and images. This has to be my favorite Trilogy Movie of all Time. It's amazing how much time has past since first watching this movie many decades ago.
I wasn't going to watch this breakdown because I've seen so many of these Easter egg videos on BTTF and the dvd/blu ray extras etc but there was still things I overlooked. The gift that keeps giving. Great thorough breakdown.

There’s not a lot say about this movie that hasn’t been said before, so I’m glad that I learned a couple of new things.
This was awesome do more!
I’ve seen bits and pieces over the years but I don’t think I’ve ever sat down and purposely watched these movies!
Yes mate, class all round 👏👏😎
Well enjoy your reviews chief: funny, detailed and insightful - you add to my favourite movies and make me love them even more!
If you have a mind to would you consider possibly reviewing any of the following: Heat, The Usual Suspects, A Few Good Men, True Romance, The Abyss 😊
Cheers and Merry Christmas dude
Did you notice the change of the "Twin Pines" mall signage?
Kids climbing in fridges was deadly once upon a time.
My dad told me a story about kids playing hide and seek at the dump and one kids hiding in a fridge with a latching door.
He died trapped in there before they found him!
The filmmakers confirmed that the homeless man is NOT the mayor from 1955. They said that the mayor wouldn't even be alive in 1985 because he was old in 1955.
It's the same actor
and Marty even refers to him
as "Red."
Are these the same filmmakers that claimed hoverboards were real?
@@abegarfield7031Obviously it's the same filmmakers. That was clearly a joke. Is the point you're trying to make that if a person tells a single joke then that means EVERYTHING they say is a joke and they can never be trusted to be honest? Because that's dumb. It's not the same actor. They even said that it's a common misconception that it's the same actor. The whole point of the interview I saw was them trying to clear up misconceptions about the films. They were clarifying things that people considered plotholes or just general questions people had.
Also, Marty refers to him as "Fred". Listen closely with subtitles and you'll see.
100% not the same character. The math doesn’t add up, even if people think the two Bob’s can’t be trusted to be honest. It’s not the same character. Period.
"Steven Spoilsberg" killed me!😂😂😅
The mayor and the homeless man are not the same character. As an actor, I've worked with Courtney Gains who played the bully who put the kick me sign on George, and cut in on his dance. You also mentioned the movie Cat People. I've worked with Lynn Lowry from that film. I love your channel and all your videos. Keep up the good work!
It's a perfect movie and still holds up today.
such a great video mate. I get so nostalgic and sad that I never knew I was living in the good times back in the 90's with movies like this on repeat.
Yeah I took movies made in the 80s thru early 2000s for granted too, thinking things would just keep getting better. Boy was I wrong.
Suffocation deaths in refrigerators is a real thing and that's why you're required to remove the door when discarding one. What's changed is kids aren't outside playing hide and seek and most people are having refrigerators removed with the purchase of a new one instead of putting it on the curb themselves.
I’ll NEVER forget when I got to meet Christopher Lloyd at New York Comic Con when I was in middle school many many years ago and got to take a photo with him. BTTF is one of my all time favorite trilogies and the first one is a TIMELESS classic **get it? 🌚**
Also are you aware that there are several moments in the bttf trilogy where marty supposedly died and doc had to go back in time and restart the timeloop from a certain point to save martys life?
Like in bttf pt.2 when marty jumps off of the casino before biff can shoot him doc is mysteriously able to predict when and where he needs to be to catch marty jumping off the building.
Another time in the second movie towards the end. When marty is trying to hoverboard through the tunnel while being chased by biff. Doc knows when and where to drop a line down to save marty. The implications being biff ran marty down like a dog in the street. Also doc uses a strand of flags from the construction on lyon estates from the beginning of the movie. The only way doc would know to save the rope and when and where he would need it is if he watched marty die several times.
Its even implied he knew he would need to save marty at the beginning of the first bttf movie like he knew marty would try to save him, because of the time paradox of doc having the note in his pocket. So the theory goes... that doc spent all of bttf 2 saving marty because marty saved doc with the note in the first movie. Which makes sense when you remember the third movie had marty traveling back to the old west to save doc yet again. Only to have marty die and end up in clint eastwoods grave which causes doc to save him again, and the third movie is essentially them saving each other.
🤔
I've been hearing those theories for a while, but there's absolutely no proof to any of them in any of the movies showing that it's all fan fiction instead. If you start adding unneeded explanations for "how did Doc know to be there?!" for things, then you may as well start using that EVERYWHERE in the movie besides just those specific points. "How did happen so perfectly? Oh, that's because Doc had to go back in time multiple times to make sure it all worked out!"
@42:18 - Doc Bulletproof Vest looks a lot like the Termination T 1000 when shot. Another Time Traveling movie
Great Scott!
This is real heavy doc
Only just discovered your videos but I must say they’re really great!
I never knew that was a punching bag, I thought it was the laundry they were hanging on the line later in that scene. At the Lone Pines Mall, I always thought “What if they shot Doc in the face that time?”
It's not. It's a top load duffle bag. I had one when I was in the navy. If you pause the video, you can see the top flaps for the opening, and the straps on the side are long and thick. Nothing like what you see on a punching bag, no matter what decade it's from.
I was scrolling through to see if someone corrected this! I can't believe this was the first and maybe only one. Lol DEFINITELY a duffel like we use in the military.
All three Back to the Future parts are masterpieces!
One of my favorite movies of all time, no pun intended. My sister and I watched this countless times growing up, I have every line memorized, and yet it's still one of those movies that I can always watch if I'm flipping through channels and happen to find it. It's a comfort movie. Also, I just gave my sister a Back to the Future ugly Christmas sweater for her birthday lmao. AND YET.... how have I never realized that Red the Bum was also Mayor Red in 1955? How did I miss that my whole life??
Mayor Red and Bum Red aren't the same person that was straight up falsehood. Mayor Red's photo was that of Hal Gausman, a set decorator on BTTF, and Red the Bum was played by George "Buck" Flower.
If it makes you feel any better, I didn't realize it was Red the mayor from 1955 either lol.
3:38
Nope. It's the opposite of that. A clock that is moving faster through space moves more slowly through time.
THANK YOU for doing this breakdown. Back to the Future is my favorite movie and trilogy of all time!
I watched the trilogy yesterday, I absolutely love it.
I absolutely love your channel. It's my favourite on YT. I have a pretty good eye for details, but you ALWAYS find some extra things that I have missed. Top work!
You pointed out "Orgy American Style" on the theater marquee, but missed the fact that the homeless guy on the park bench is portrayed by George 'Buck' Flower, an actor who actually starred in Orgy American Style (1973)?
I'm so happy you started doing these classic film reviews. Every time I watch one of these it reminds me of why I've been obsessed with movies my whole life. Keep it up Mr Paul Spoilers!
As for "left handed people", it wasnt awkward, it was the catholic church citing "left handed usage as a sin". My father dealt with this himself in school.
Went to one school for a few months while moving, and they made me write with my right hand as a lefty, and then tried to hold me back a year because my handwriting wasn't good enough. I'm glad I didn't stay there long
Paul, Back to the Future is my ALL TIME FAVORITE movie. Thank you for making this video.
The concern of the fridge was that on the films release there were many fridges still in use and in junkyards that shut via a latch and couldn't be opened from within. An issue not addressed till around 1960. Any kid who climbed in couldn't get out again and unless found, would die of asphyxiation - something that sadly occurred all too often.
What a beauty of a breakdown 👌🏼
Here trivia for you. The kid that kicks George in the hallway and later tries to cut in at the dance is Courtney Gaines, who later featured more prominently in Children Of The Corn and The Burbs.
Malachai!!
One of my favourite movies ever!!! Watched it more than a 1000 times and when I saw that you made a breakdown I couldn’t click fast enough!
I’ve been waiting for this specific episode.. thank you
Great attention to detail. My favorite trilogy of movies right there.
I am a clockmaker. And in addition to making and fixing clocks, I also collect them. My house is starting to look like Doc's house. That being said, I used to have a Regulator just like the one you pointed out. They are nice clocks. Very easy to fix.
Great job on the video! Already watched part two, now waiting for part three.
Great job man. Great breakdown and showing some of the more subtle things in the movie.
You honestly have shown me some stuff I never saw on any other video or media. Been watching this movie all my life. Saw part 2 in the theater. Best movie franchise ever. Thanks, mate. Stop getting sick! Hahaha. Merry Christmas, Definition.
man, i miss this type of attention to details in movies, we dont see that anymore
When I was 8-years old I walked to the mall by our house and watched the trilogy in the movie theater. When I walked out of the movie there were cops all over and one starting staring at me then started chasing me. I ran and ran while he kept yelling stop but I was terrified. I finally did stop after 10 of them circled me in the food court. Come to find out my mother thought I had been kidnapped and there were over 300 Mesa police looking EVERYWHERE for me. The cop asked me, "why did you run"? I told him, "you were chasing me!" Anyways, it was a great trilogy.
Ha, that moment when you emerge from a time travel movie only to find yourself in an alternate timeline where you're a fugitive.
At least the cops knew.
_"Back To The Future is playing. I bet he's there."_
And, then, they let you finish the trilogy instead of interrupting you. 😂
Mesa, AZ? Was it Fiesta Mall? My dad lived in Mesa when I was a kid, and I remember going there on occasion. I saw recently on Wikipedia that it's become another abandoned mall. Sad.
This was a phenomenal video. Thank you.
Love the in depth analysis! I’m a big back to the future fan and there are facts in the video that I didn’t know
911 symbolism all over it
The Hill Valley sign in the town square also contains another nice detail. In the 1955 version, it is positively plastered with the logos of service clubs like Lions International and the Rotary Club, who presumably all have branches in the town. This serves to emphasise both how prosperous and how community-minded the citizens of Hill Valley are. In the 1985 version, those logos are conspicuously absent, illustrating how the town has fallen on much harder times.
yeah, freemason organizations are a sign everything is great
One of my favorite jokes is that the most unbelievable part of the movie is that a DeLorean can get up to 88mph.
Love this channel. This has been the funniest episode I've heard in a very long time.
Great video thanks for doing this!! My favorite movie and trilogy.
I really enjoyed this video! I'd say about half of the things mentioned were new to me. I also appreciated your theory on the DeLorean stalling out for a bit after Marty was scheduled to start his approach. I've always felt like there was a huge room for error, as they really had a full 60 seconds to account for the lightning strike and the Doc's plan was so precise.
(I know, I know... I'll shut up now. A little suspension of disbelief goes a long way towards enjoying a film.)
every time i watch this movie it reminds me of life in the 80's as a kid. the vhs for back to the future was our very first in the house. i probably watched that vhs a thousand times.
Great scott! I love this movie, and I love this video too! very well done man, very well done/
That was wonderful! You got yourself a new subscriber!
At roughly 28:35, talking about “another one of these kids jumped in front of my car”. Maybe George did, or maybe Loraine was an exhibitionist and George heard about her from other boys in class.
Yeah she was a dirty little slapper.
Fun Fact Paul...
That was my local mall here in LA. I was on set able to watch the filming AND they watched the dallies in my High School Theater.
Ah nice, that’s awesome
Great video, btw...you have a good sense of finding all the attentions-to-detail! can't wait for Part II.
"to be Continued..."
Thank You! One of the BEST Trilogies EVER!
That’s not a punching bag, it’s clothing bag the military used to use. Shaped very similarly to a heavy bag, however the heavy bag would be too heavy for Marty to lift a with one arm like that.
Please do Back to the Future part II and part III
No doubt
No doubt indeed :) @@heavyspoilers
Fantastic break down as always Paul, you folks never disappoint! (DEVAU suit tho, lmao)
Amazing breakdown of the begining foreshadowing! Quality Film n Trilogy 👌 Cheers
There is a small but common error here. Marty isn't, in fact, wearing a life preserver.
He's wearing what was, in 1985, a pretty standard red bodywarmer (AKA gilet).
A simple sleeveless jacket that was fashionable in the 1980s and which, believe me, you would want to use to try and stay afloat out at sea! They aren't buoyant in the slightest!
These bodywarmers were fairly commonplace in the '80s but hadn't been invented in the '50s which is why everyone in 1955 thinks it's a life preserver. Because they'd never seen the like before which is why when Marty wears it in the '80s people recognise it for the normal everyday bodywarmer that it is and nobody bats an eyelid.
Given that bodywarmers have made a bit of a comeback lately, I'm surprised that the mistake of thinking it is, actually, a life preserver is still so commonly made.
A number four would be good, not nowadays though it wouldn't feel the same, it would have to hit all the woke marks. Maybe a story with jennifer parker having to go back and save marty, would still be ok if written properly.
Thanks for validating my thoughts on Doc's mind reading machine.
Paul - I love these breakdowns so much, and had a bit of a chuckle over the AVGN reference
9:56 wow🤦🏻♂️ that’s literally just how people swig from bottles! And it’s called… 🥁… a “swig”. Maybe the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard on this channel. AND 10:58 HOW can you tell it’s “almost empty “?? 🙄
Naming their kid Marty kinda kills the "do you remember a kid you met for 8 days 30 years ago" explanation. And the year book scene would have killed it even more. Either way George and Loraine are having a very awkward conversation about why their son looks like that Calvin/Marty kid from back in the day.
That's not true, I had a crush in school I still remember his name, but for the life of me, I can't remember his face, maybe some people do remember faces, but other people don't
You can remember someone existed and that you liked their name, without remembering what they looked like, especially if you only knew them for a week, thirty years ago! Yes, even the face of someone important to you (like someone you feel is responsible for introducing you to your spouse), can become blurry and indistinct over the years.
You also have to take into account people's perceptions.
My friends' parents look old to me. My own parents, who I've seen regularly for my entire life, don't. From my point of view, I've seen my parents age a little bit every day, and the changes happen so gradually that their aging goes almost unnoticed. My friends' parents, on the other hand, I see so infrequently that any aging they do in between is blatantly obvious; they clearly look very different than when I last saw them.
To Marty's parents, they first saw him as an infant, looking nothing like "Calvin Klein," whose face they'd probably already forgotten, whom they were around for only a few hours over the course of a week, decades ago. They then saw their son gradually age, every day, until he finally looked like the Marty who went back in time. However, by that time, they hadn't seen "Calvin Klein" in 30 years, whereas their son has a face they've been looking at all his life.
Marty's parents not realizing he's a dead ringer for "Calvin Klein," someone they barely knew and haven't seen in three decades, is perfectly in line with how the human brain works; it's fairly well-trod scientific ground.
There's a Martin in his father's family line.
First time 🕰️ here on your channel and I love back to the future! Great video 👍🏻 (subscribed) can’t wait for bttf 2 & 3 videos from you 👍🏻

PLEASE review THE WRAITH as its generally fffffing cool movie aswell
cheers guys
I have loved these movies for decades and watched countless videos about them but somehow every time I learn something new.
Keep em coming!!!
Loving these breakdown videos. What happened to the Alien 4 breakdown?
It’s coming, might do it around when Aliens releases on 4k
My Favorite movie of all time!!! Thanks for the breakdown you are the shiznat!!!
Great breakdown, great trilogy!
The Gibson es345 was actually first produced in 1959. This is something I’ve been pointing out to people for many years. But great work on this break down I look forward to a second part
Thank you Paul.
😂😂❤i love how you make your videos... i have so much fun watching!😂😂
Really cool breakdown! Was also wondering when the Godzilla Minus One review is coming out?
One of the best. Might have to pause my x-mas viewing to watch the trilogy
Incredible breakdown! Back to the future was the second film I ever saw when I was three years old right next to an HBO recording of the sandlot and it continues to be my favorite film of all time. And little nuggets of information I heard from this break down completely blows me away. It’s pretty common knowledge that Eric Stoltz was originally meant to play Marty but I had no idea that they had another actress for Jeniffer as well in the form of Jan from the office. Can’t wait to see the other two film breakdown.
Stoltz
