No they are right,it probably wouldnt be made now......

So much 9/11 Symbolism,especially in Part II its not funny......

Part 1 is good
Part 2 is Excellent
Part 3 is OK

They ruined these movies to hell on VHS but they didnt ruin most of the rental copies!! (I was lucky to find 2 and 3 in good shape (Alot of rentals are not in good shape))

I have part 2 and 3 looking like Im watching them on analogue cable!! (Part 1 I have recorded from HBO in 1987)

If you were to ask anyone about Michael J. Fox's best role aside from Family Ties as Alex Keaton they will most likely tell you Marty McFly from Back To The Future. And when Back To The Future was first released in 1985 little did we know that Back To The Future would brighten Michael J. Fox's superstardom. And with an awesome 80's soundtrack with The Power Of Love by Huey Lewis And The News this movie scored big at the box-office. And if you ask any 80's kid who watched Back To The Future if they probably imagined going back in time like Michael J. Fox did they would probably say yes. And now that it's 40 years old Back To The Future is still a classic of the 80's. But I think when Back To The Future was being developed they were gonna build an entire trilogy series of Back To The Future but seeing how poorly Back To The Future II performed it wasn't meant to be but it got a cartoon series made as well

What It Was Really Like To See Back To The Future In 1985 (https://www.looper.com/382183/what-it-was-really-like-to-see-back-to-the-future-in-1985/)

In 1985, Back to the Future changed movies forever. He's what Ronald Reagan, Princess Diana, and a world full of ordinary moviegoers thought of the movie.

Dumb Things In Back To The Future Everyone Ignored (https://www.looper.com/169026/dumb-things-in-back-to-the-future-everyone-ignored/)

While Back to the Future is a marvelous movie, there are a few things in it that leave viewers scratching their heads, and we're not going to ignore these dumb things anymore.

Things were much better 40 yrs ago :(

Episode 1 of Classics Never Say Die takes a trip back to 1985 with Back to the Future, the sci-fi adventure comedy that became one of the most beloved movies of the decade. In this episode, I look at why Marty McFly, Doc Brown, the DeLorean, and Hill Valley still hit so hard, what makes the movie timeless, and why this Robert Zemeckis classic still feels electric all these years later. If you love 80s movies, retro movie nostalgia, and revisiting all-time classics, you’re in the right place.
