Cruisin' in a Timeless DeLorean
Posted : 14 years, 8 months ago on 11 September 2009 07:00
'Ey, it's that's one dude from Family Ties teaming up with that one other dude from Taxi and that one chick from Howard The Duck.
Michael J. Fox, Leah Thompson, Christopher Loyd, along with Crispin Glover, form a cadre of actors whom, at the time of that BTTF occupied theaters, were not considered top marquee celebrities, a situation that would change, particularly for Fox, after this surprise hit's release.

Marty McFly may seem like just a typical, whitebred kid from the 80's, but the truth is, well.... he <I> really</I> is just a typical whitebred kid from the 80's. Okay, maybe his dad never shrugged off his 1950's brand of nerdiness, but let's be honest here, back in the 80's, we all sorta knew that that was more the norm than what was usually portrayed on TV and in the movies as to what typical was. And maybe every once in a while, Marty tended to hang around with an offbeat, weirdo professor, but the fact that Marty could play guitar pretty good, was in a band and had a good looking 80's style girlfriend sorta balanced all that out, didn't it? <I>And</I> he wasn't doing drugs.
But whatever, this so-called "atypical" kid gets caught up in one of his professor friend's experiments, and next thing you know, he's driving a super-souped up DeLorean (the "car of the future") through time, and finds himself stuck in the past. And with an empty flux capacitor, a younger version of the professor and his teen-aged so-to-be dad, McFly must find a way back.... to the fut....well.... you know.

Directed by Robert Zemekis, Back To The Future is a time-traveling tale which inarguably solidified the fact that it's never a good idea to take your mother to the school dance. Even if it's before she becomes your mother.

The Flux Capacitor

Marty McFly and The Doc are two of the worlds greatest characters...I'm talking film, TV and books here.
Marty McFly was the archetypal teen, being kept down by the man, and that crusty old Dean! The whole film is feel good to the core. I cannot think of anyone cooler than Marty McFly, travelling everywhere on his skateboard, not qualifying for the talent competition because he was too loud!
Coupled with the ultimate mad scientist, Emmit Brown...the duo cannot be competed with. This film is the first of one of cinemas greatest trilogies/films...the Doc invents a time machine and Marty travels back to 1955, where some mad cap adventures ensue; although I doubt a Dolorian has ever made it up to 60 let alone 88mph. If you haven’t seen BTTF in a while; take the time to watch it again; it never loses its cool 1980s sheen.

Time Travel

Ah, the classic 80's time travel movie, definitely my favorite of the time travel genre. While watching this movie you can't help but wonder what it would be like to go back and meet your parents, would you like them, hang out, think they're losers?
Kind of frightening really....
Fun adventure, and I'll admit, I always get nervous at the end. Some great soundtrack songs too from Huey Lewis (who plays the judge of the bands at the beginning...)
