It's coming to DVD just in time for the holidays. Woo hoo!

Cool! Thanks for telling us. You know iv'e actually never even seen any of the bttf films. I actually have part 3 in my dresser drawer but I haven't gotten around to watching it. I think when it comes out on DVD i'll definitely check them all out. Hopefully it'll have special features. Who knows, maybe Michael will even give a little actors commentary. That would be nice!

The BTTF trilogy extras will be full of Michael!! You'll see interviews of Michael, an a audio commentary for BTTF1. you'll even see a small part of the shooting of Family Ties before the live studio audience

SpinCT · 12-04-2002, 04:31 PM

I can tell you know, you will only see FT before the audience for 2 seconds, but i was so happy when i saw it....

DetectiveGriffin · 12-05-2002, 12:17 PM

these are 3 of my fav movies. Oh, when I was young how I wanted that dang DeLorean! Somebody in my city has one, but I havent seen it for quite awhile.

I just wanted to pet it.

Im going to buy this set when it comes out Dec. 17th(?), but i do have them recorded off tv -- i might have to wait for a sale.

i think i might be partial to part 3, but its probably the one ive seen the least. The other 2 versions are on all the time.
i'd better go look, i think i still have a bunch of part 2 and 3 trading cards.

Marty's ok, but doc brown is my favorite --- i've got a thing for mad scientists. <G>

heh

My guess would be in the range of 40 to $50.00 bucks.

Well you gotta figure you pay between 17-20 or so for one movie so I dont see 40-50 alot for all 3 of them.

Brad Russ · 12-06-2002, 02:31 PM

Well I recently bought the star wars episode 1, and 2 DVD's off amazon for my brother for Christmas, and for the two of those it was $40.00 bucks. So most likely The three back to the future ones will be above that. The shark 8777 is right. If you bought three videos on VHS they'd go for about $15.00 a piece which would be about $45.00 for all three. So if the BTTF DVD's sold for $40.00 it would be an amazing bargain. The more I think of it i'm guessing they'll probably be more in the price range of $45.00 to $55.00. I think the best thing to do is either rent them first and see if there worth it, or wait a few months and buy them off Ebay for much cheaper.

DetectiveGriffin · 12-07-2002, 06:38 PM

amazon.com will be selling them for $42 with free shipping, according to their site.
i dont know if they are usually high or low, but with christmas coming, maybe there will be some store coupons or something.

SpinCT · 12-09-2002, 07:44 PM

Hey Jen, today I will send you an email with screenshots of what we see of FT in the DVDs.

SpinCT · 12-10-2002, 11:27 AM

I sent the pictures. Did you receive them Jen?

DetectiveGriffin · 12-28-2002, 03:18 PM

ok, i got the dvd set ... where exactly is the family ties thing - gotta see it, it rules.

SpinCT · 12-28-2002, 03:30 PM

The FT thing is at the beginning of the original "Making of Back to the Future" featurette.

DetectiveGriffin · 12-28-2002, 08:14 PM
