Back to the Future 2 | First Time Watching | REACTION - LiteWeight Reacting 

HEY YOU! YES YOU! I just want to THANK YOU for checking out this video and all 31,000 of you that decided to subscribe to this lovely space!! I absolutely loved this movie so and can't wait to watch the third!! Next up is ALIENS! Have a great day

Okay, so... In the scene where future Biff has gone back to 1955 to give himself the almanac, you see 1955 Biff arguing with the mechanic about the price to repair and clean his car after the original manure crash. The mechanic says there's an extra charge because he had to hire Mr. Jones to come haul away all the manure that was in the car and spilled on the road. Now cut to the tunnel chase scene, and Biff hits a manure truck with "D. Jones" written on the side. That's Jones hauling away the exact same manure Biff already hit, so it's literally "same shit, different day." Of all the subtle callbacks and interconnected details of the series, that's my favorite.

Goosebumps every time Marty says "There's only one man who can help me", and the music kicks in there at the end!

You're right to point out how absolutely talented Biff's actor (Tom Wilson) is. He actually grew up a band nerd who was picked on, and used that experience to play the perfect bully after he had a growth spurt. Not only that, the guy is a legitimately hilarious stand up comic. Here's him on the Tonight Show back in the day doing standup. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PR_hh8ong_k.html

Fun fact: Biff's grandma was voiced by Biff actor himself, Tom Wilson!

FINALLY! A reactor that recognized Elijah Wood was in this movie

They invented a new camera system for this movie called Vistaglide. It was a robotic camera that could repeat camera moves precisely, allowing the filmmakers to move the camera around while an actor was playing multiple roles in the scene. They would choose which character would be the focus of the shot and have the camera repeat the move for each other character. Then, they could combine the shots during post-production. The first film to come out using this system was _Dead Ringers,_ which was filmed after this, but came out before. The Vistaglide system would go on to be used in _Who Framed Roger Rabbit,_ another Robert Zemekis film, where it was used to hide some of the apparatus that brought the Toons to life.

Yes, you're right. This entire trilogy is one of the most consistent and well-written with all the callbacks and tie-ins.

4:39 Doc Brown describing the butterfly effect.

I am super impressed with your observations! Out of all the reactors I've seen, you're the only one who noticed all the little Old West details in this movie... which might pay off in the next movie. You're such a smart cookie and I mean that wholeheartedly!

A few bits of trivia. 1) They decided early on that, when it comes to depicting the future, movies always get it wrong. So they opted to turn the future into a series of jokes. 2) In a deleted scene, you learn that the old man trying to save the clock tower in 2015 (talking about the Cubs winning the world series), that character is actually the mechanic who removed the manure from Biff's car in 1955. 3) Due to creative differences, the actor portraying George McFly refused to be in the sequels, which guided the idea of having him die in the alternate reality, and whenever you see the George character on screen, he's not recognisable (for instance, turning his back to the camera after saving Loraine from Biff's assault in 1955, or when he shows up in 2015 after a golfing accident "upside down"...). 4) Yes, that was indeed Elijah Wood from LOTR, and yes that was also Billy Zane from Titanic. 5) Nike actually did release a limited edition of the auto-lacing shoes in 2015 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the movie (no hoverboards from Matel though!).

11:54 in a deleted scene shows him fading out of existence, suggesting that his tampering with time created a paradox that erased him from reality. Another theory is that Lorraine, found out that Biff killed George, so she shot and killed him in the mid 90’s

38:23 "Even Biff's Actor, I Don't Know His Name" The actor that played Biff is Thomas F. Wilson

13:36 I saw a deleted scene. Old Biff is in so much pain because he’s being deleted from history. In the deleted scene he fades out to nothing because he changed his future

12:33 When we were kids and we saw this scene in the 80's we didn't realised the two ties. Everybody was like WoooW, imagine calling a friend and seeing his face!

When the two Docs are talking to eachother, that's presumably a split screen. It looks seamless because the lamp post is providing a nice clean boundary, so there's no obvious colour or lighting differences if the split had been in "mid air". Sometimes though in movies they would use actual twins, like for example in Terminator 2, where Linda Hamilton's twin sister appears in the scene where Sarah Connor is operating on the Terminator's skull and you see a mirror shot but no reflection of a camera, because it's actually not a mirror but an opening, with Linda's twin sister on the other side. And also the security guard that gets killed by the T-1000 while mimicking him is played by a set of twins

They got a fair amount right about the future. From video calling to the Cubs winning the World Series (off by only one year) to biometrics and 80s nostalgia.

16:55 Keep your eyes up. lol Seriously though, this whole trilogy is amazing. Can't wait for you to see part 3.

Fantastic reaction! Your reactions in real time during the film---not too chattery, very attentive. You are one of the best reactors I've seen to this movie, and I've seen a lot. I was 13 when the BTTF original came out and 17 when this #2 came out. This trilogy is my fav movie (s) of all time. It's such a joy watching young people react, esp great reactors like this channel.

What's even more impressive about the double actor shots is those effects are now THIRTY FIVE years old!!

I'm so glad YT recommended your videos to me. I really appreciate how observant and smart your reactions are. I must have seen the BTTF movies 20 times but you picked up on things I didn't. I think there are hundreds of callbacks and references throughout the movies. And there are even call-forwards in this one. I don't think anyone could pick everything up, but it's really impressive how much you got!

The actress who played Jennifer was unable to do the sequel because her mom was ill at the time. As the filmmakers never intended to make a sequel, they were a bit bummed that they had to continue from where the first movie ended, with the story about the McFly kids and Jennifer in the car. That's why they were so quick to put her to sleep, dump her in an alley, leave her at her house. Jennifer was a one-dimensional character they just needed to get out of the way. I'm not sure why Biff was able to return the time machine back to the future; that he wouldn't travel to the alternate future, having already given himself the book. In a cut scene, old Biff disappears after he gets out of the car. That's why we see him in such pain. He does fade out of existence. The real question, though: why did Biff return the car at all?! The surest way for Marty and Doc to try and thwart Biff's plan is to give them back their time traveling vehicle. As for having the actor appear on screen with himself, it was real. It wasn't a stand-in with a wig or anything. It was just a blending of two separately filmed moments. You can see where it wasn't done so well with the two Biffs in the garage, talking about the book. The dividing line is the bar separating the two front windows. When Biff tosses the book to himself, it gets a little wonky and fake looking. Still, it was done pretty well for the time period. It's like Eddie Murphy in "Nutty Professor," playing many people all seated around the same table. How they did that vs how they did this, I don't know. A friend of mine, he made a video where he played two people singing a duet. For him, he filmed both parts separately without moving the camera. Then, using video editing software, he was able to keep the right half of the first character and the left half of the second character. In the end, you can see the dividing line some because of a change in lighting. It's pretty cool these things one can do with film. In some ways, also kind of sad. Nowadays, even things you wouldn't think have to be faked are. Even just being in a room, the room is all CGI and for no good reason other than they didn't have to find, build, or otherwise make a room like it. Anyway, novel ended. I'm enjoying your reaction videos. After I check out the third one, I'll have to see if you have ever reacted to some of my other favorites, including films by Alfred Hitchcock.

In 2015 the local cinema had an event where they showed all three movies in a row, it was probably my best cinema experience in my life! It was such a relaxed showing, felt like I was watching a movie at home with 400 best buddies :D

31:45 ... 'how did he know' ... there's many theories that Marty was actually killed and murdered by Biff, and Doc had to go back and save Marty. The top of Biff's casino's roof where Marty was shot or he jumped.... and then again when Biff ran Marty over in the tunnel. Doc went back to save Marty's life. That explains why he knew where to be at the exact moment and also it explains why Doc's keypad destination input was faultering as he had to go back a bunch or even many times.

This is my favourite of the three movies. I love how convoluted the multiple timelines are.

The ironic thing is that Tom Wilson, who plays Biff, is in reality one of the sweetest, funniest, and hardest working actors in Hollywood. My wife and I met him at a convention a few years back and he's never let his fame get to his head. He's remained humble and approachable. If you get a chance to check out his stand up comedy, you'll really enjoy it. The Question Song in particular is hilarious!

jennifer was originally Claudia wells. she was replaced by elizabeth shue (Ali from Karate kid) also adventures in baby sitting and others. reason was claudia's mother was undergoing cancer treatment during the time they needed to flim this and needed to be with her mom

What was amazing about this trilogy is that each part starts exactly where the previous part ends--You can watch them all together as a giant 6 hours movie. So much well done. How did they make it ?--that's what I like from 1980's movies that I grew up with: without modern computers, movie makers had to be creative & invent new technologies. You can see it in this trilogy, & movies like Star Wars, Ghostbusters, Robocop & many others. Everything was hand-made. The third one works the same: pay attention to tiny details. My favorite of the 3 ?--all, part 1 was new back in the day, part 2 have more time travel (1985, 2015 & 1955), and part 3 wraps everything up into a complete story and ties some loose ends. You'll see by yourself (no spoilers from me). Have a nice day & I'll watch what else you did on your channel. For the future, they missed the mark on several things, but you have to look at it with a 1985 mindset. In the mid 80's, I remember kids at school talking about flying cars for year 2000, so when part 2 came out, flying cars in 2015 made sense.

I loved it that you even recognized Elijah Wood. You’re very attentive to details! I love to see young people today watching this favorite of mine, loving it just as much as we did back in the day. I was 17 just as Marty when the first one came out, and October 21 is my birthday. I love this trilogy to eternity and back.

The first one ended on a cliff hanger without a sequel, but part 2 & 3 were written together

For those who actually want to know how it works... In Back to the Future, changing the timeline is not instantaneous - the larger the gap of time that has to change, the longer it will take. In most time-travel stories, as soon as a change is made in the past, the entire timeline of events that followed it is completely erased and replaced with the new eventuality. But that's clearly not how it works in Back to the Future; because if it was, then the moment that Marty pushed his father out of the way of his grandfather's car, thus preventing his parents' first meeting and eventual relationship, Marty would've disappeared almost immediately. No, the way that Back to the Future works, is that time itself is a tangible thing that actually exists; and therefore, it can't just disappear and be replaced instantly. The timeline has to be rewritten: gradually and the longer the gap of time, the longer it's going to take. In Back to the Future, the reason that Marty is the last of the children to be erased, when logically he should've been the first, is because, the new timeline continuity started by Marty's interference, was gradually rewriting the future histories of George and Lorraine, overwriting both Dave's and Linda's existence, before working it's way to Marty. In 2015, when Marty takes Marty Jr's place in the meeting with Griff, Doc has tomorrow's newspaper handy. When the Hoverboarding incident occurs that lands Griff and his gang in Jail, the change was instantaneous, because that paper was only one day away. Now, when 2015 Biff goes back in time to give his 1955 counterpart the Almanac, that is literally 60 years worth of history that has to be rewritten. He had ample time to return to his future in 2015, because the overwriting timeline hadn't reached that far yet. But it had reached 1985 by the time Doc, Marty, Jennifer and Einstein went back. In fact, this is proven thanks to deleted scenes from the movie. See when Old Biff gets back to 2015, he starts acting weak and collapses behind a dumpster in pain. Most people assume this is because he accidentally broke off the top of his cane in the Delorean, and then struck himself in the stomach with it. But a deleted scene proves otherwise; Biff is in-pain, because he's being erased from existence, like Marty was in the first movie. As the Delorean flies back to 1985, the scene shows 2015 Biff fading away. He disappears because, despite his future where he is wealthy and corrupt, he never makes it to 2015 in the new timeline. This would later be revealed why, as it was originally planned that in the Alternate 1985, when Biff corners Marty on the roof, Lorraine was supposed to appear and shoot Biff, killing him, to protect her son. (I honestly kind of wish they'd kept that.) But you see my point - in Back to the Future, the timeline doesn't get "deleted" nor does it get rewritten backwards. Time can only move in one-direction, so therefore, it gradually writes over itself whenever a sequence of events is changed. It explains everything in how Back to the Future works... I'm not saying that this is perfect, because the movie has to take some licenses with it. For example, the book of matches that Marty took from Biff's Tower, the Newspapers both Marty and Doc had from the Alternate 1985, and the Fax that Jennifer took from 2015. In these instances, whenever the timeline is changed, the aforementioned objects change instantly - Biff Co becomes Biff Auto Detailing; George McFly's Murder changed to his Honorarium, Doc being Committed to him being Commended, and Marty's firing being completely erased. We'll have to chalk that up to the movie wanting to have a visual confirmation that the future had been changed. But as for everything else, the logic is sound. Resuming this is a Ripple Effect. SORRY FOR THE LONG POST.

Love your giggly laugh because it's just a fun movie not too serious, you kept asking how the characters look so good (they used split screen) Another movie ahead of it's time you would enjoy. If you haven't seen it is an animation/real world movie *(Who Framed Roger Rabbit)* has *Christopher Lloyd* & also uses the same tunnel used in this movie

Great you are watching Back to the Future 2 now have a wonderful week and as always thank you LiteWeight.👋🎇🎆👋

20:23 Biff made a hell of a jump from bully to Tony Montana type gangster.

I'm 49, and I remember this coming out in the theater when I was young and being blown away with the vision of the future. It's a bit funny to watch it now knowing how things actually turned out but it still brings me great joy every time I see a younger person react to these movies for the first time. I loved both your reactions and I'm looking forward to your reaction for the third film which is just as good as the first two. I think this is the best film trilogy of all time in my opinion. I recently discovered your reaction channel and have greatly enjoyed watching. You are beautiful, smart and charming. Please keep up the great work!

That resturant AI screen gives me serious Max Headroom vibes!

Hi, Love your reactions to BTTF Parts 1 & 2 and I love the fact that you watch & listen and pick-up on things that a lot of reactors completely miss. It's also especially nice that you recognise the actors skills in all there differant and many rolls. Looking forward to your reaction to BTTF Part 3. 🙂 ❤

I swear, your attention to detail is impeccable! I love that you remember all the callbacks and pick up on all the little things. It really makes it a joy to follow along on your ride through these movies!

BTTF is definitely one of the best trilogy's of all time! Its what made me fall in love with Deloreans and after 30 years I finally obtained one recently. It's BTTF every day for me now lol.

Love all the connecting Easter Eggs you pointed out in your commentary, so I think you'll be just as successful with the 3rd one

Yes! thank you for pausing it at the end! Love the reaction so far, looking forward to the third one. 😛

The same actor in the same scene is so clever and incredibly simple at the same time Jennifer is never see facing the camera side by side so it doesn’t matter about that scene but biff and the doc. The technical crew developed a computer controlled motion camera system that could be programmed to repeat over and over the exert shot. In both the doc’s and Biff’s scene there’s a big hard line that the shot is based that the actors do not cross in doc’s scene it’s the lamp post and in Biff’s scene it’s the windscreen Center pillar. In edit the film as cut along this line and then joined together to make on scene with the same actor in 2 places at the same time

Regarding the "same person in the shot with himself" (splitscreen) was done with special camera rigs ILM had to build. Remember this was made in 1989, there was no CGI-magicery to be had back then.

Driving around to walk your dog is absolutely bonkers to me. Am I the only one? 😆

Fun fact. At 13:44, Biff fades from existence due to being murdered by Lorraine after she found Biff murdered George.

Since they didn't intend to make a sequel the original Jennifer actress wasn't contracted for any more and she was working on another project when they started this.

Multiple occurrences of an actor in the frame have been done from years by filming the actor repeating the scene multiple times and then splicing parts of frames into the same final frame. The usual way was to have some vertical edge the actor never crossed; that made a safe place they could join left and right crops of the two takes. This way required locking down the camera for each take. Camera moves have been added by a new technologies that allow a camera to move the exact same way for each take. This basic technique works as long as the actor does not have to pass in front of himself or interact with himself. Green screens can be used in different takes to isolate the actor from the background and pile up the takes in different orders. When Biff hands himself the magazine in the car in the garage, this was one case of an actor interacting with himself. They used a mechanical arm just under frame. Old Biff puts the magazine in the arm which then moves the magazine through the windshield post which where the frames where joined. Then loaded arm moved the magazine across the windshield where young Biff takes it out of the mechanical arm. We interpret that as old Biff handing the magazine to young Biff.

Elijah Wood when he was actual hobbit size

I just found out why I thought that the guy from the first movie, the one who uttered "Crazy drunk driver" was former mayor Red Thomas in the first movie. Wandering around the demolished Hill Valley, Marty bumped into the same guy, and he called him Red.

USA Today actually had a special edition issue printed on October 22, 2015. The rest of the paper is the usual stuff, but the main page matches the one used in the movie with his son being arrested. It also has fake stories listed such as “Cholesterol may be cure for cancer” and “3d Billboards: Free Speech or Traffic Hazards?” I have a copy on my wall.

This was the cherry on top for Today. Thanks for the reaction, and I hope yours is going well.

Legit reaction!:))) keep it up^^

They are not wigs. These actors play themselves. Even though there was no CGI back t hen. There was a machine that came out in 1989 and Back to the Future Part II was the first one to try it. Mitsubishi that allows you to do a split screen where you could film one thing and then film another and put it into one video. So they film the scene with old doc talking to are and they film the same with young doc talking to air. They put the two videos together in a split screen so it can look like they're talking to each other.

The image split was done with a new technique at the time. I don’t know if it was ever used again in another movie. It consists of filming the first side with the actor facing a stand-in, then filming the flip side, and stitched together following natural lines and curves from the set decor. They also match arms movements by hiding parts of the arm of the actor and the stand-in out of frame or behing things. Watch when Doc hands himself a wrench, his arm goes behind the lamppost. Thank you, I was waiting on this since the first movie! “They have to go waaayyy back in the future to get Doc… In 1885…“ You’re messing with our heads!!! 🤣

You can watch it, it's not really "spoilers," because II and III were filned together, and they showed us the end when we saw it originally in theaters.

8:12 Its amazing they were only off by a year. Cubs won the World Series in 2016.

5:21 - The amimated President Reagan is a reference to a popular 80's scifi show called "Max Headroom", about a computerized talking head like that.

25:27 Compositing. Film the shot twice with the actor playing both roles, then stich the two together. In this shot I'm positive they used the light pole to hide the seam between the 2 shots.

Early black and white movies used split screen for duplicates. It isn't double actors. It's camera and film editing tricks.

I can't separate the movies, to me they are all one story. And that story is fantastic! Great reaction!!

25:25 It's called layering. One layer of video is superimposed on another so the same character appears twice.

Hey there, love your videos, hope you enjoyed this! Since you really enjoyed The Terminator, I'd recommend Commando! Edit: Claudia Wells played Jennifer in the original but was replaced by Elisabeth Shue in this film. Fun fact, she also played Ali in The Karate Kid and chose to do Back to the Future II instead of Karate Kid II. I won't spoil that for you, as I would recommend it since you are on a bit of an 80's run at the moment.

The Chicago Cubs actually did win the World Series for the first time in over 100 years just 1 year later than this movie predicted.

Also once you finish the films there is Back To The Future the game. Produced by Bob Gale with Christopher Lloyd returning to voice Doc it is basically the 4th movie. Made by Telltale who made the Walking Dead games that I know you loved.

I love watching young people reacting to the movies I grew up with. (Not that I'm old)

the shoes marty wears(the ones in the future with the power laces) were for the movie only but people wanted them and nike made them. they are called nike mag's and they cost $40,000

Doc mentioned earlier in this movie he dreamed of seeing the old west. I like the first better than the second. But the third is just as good than the first. You are going to love it!!can’t wait! Oh and the cubs won the world series in 2016 one year after the supposed 2015 world series. What’s crazy cubs had not won a world series in 108 years.

I've been watching these movies since they came out and I just now realized that the reason Biff goes into car detailing is probably because his car got filled with manure twice!

Out of all the futuristic things, I'm still mad that we don't have hoverboards and automatic self tying shoes, but the most impossible thing this movie predicted actually happened. The cubs winning the World Series.

Great reaction Teegan like always, this one is amazing this might be my favorite trilogy of all time so I love seeing how much you love it! I can't WAIT for you to see Part III. There are some fun facts about this one. This movie was filmed back-to-back with Part III. If you notice they replaced the actress who played Jennifer Parker, Claudia Wells in the original Back to the future, but had to pull out of appearing in Part II after her mother was diagnosed with cancer. Elizabeth Shue was cast in the role instead and even re-shot the final scene of the first film, so it could be ‘replayed’ at the beginning of the second. This was Elijah Wood in his very first film role, Wood’s role, as an awed child by the arcade cabinet playing that game with pistols, Crispin Glover who portrais Mcfly Sr in the first one, did not apper on this one. According to Glover, he discovered that he was offered far less to reprise his role in any given sequel than Lea Thompson for a similarly sized role, Glover’s agents demanded a higher fee and script approval, and Bob Gale responded by offering even less money than before. As a result, Glover pulled out of the sequel as was replaced by Jeffrey Weissman in heavy prosthetics. This is partly why George McFly is almost always shot in the dark, from behind, or upside-down. One of the more memorable gags about the future occurs when Marty is assailed by a holographic shark outside the cinema (or ‘Holomax’). The Jaws films, in spite of the critically panned Jaws 3-D and Jaws 4, are still going strong in the fictional 2015, marking the nineteenth entry in the franchise. Jaws 19 is directed by Max Spielberg, son of the legendary director. Max was born in June 1985, the ‘present’ era of the trilogy. Actors playing themselves is nothing new - and it wasn’t new in 1989, either. However, this was mostly achieved with clever camerawork and body doubles. Back to the Future Part II broke the mould by using a VFX trick that allowed the same actor to feature twice in the same frame: the ‘Vista Glide.’ As usual, necessity is the mother of invention. Given the number of times characters interact with their past selves, or alternate future selves, or narrowly avoid continuum-obliterating paradoxes, exactly this technique was needed. There are a genuine stunt injury in this film in the hoverboard chase. Due to a technical difficulty with the wires suspending the actors, Cheryl Wheeler-Duncan - the stunt double for Darlene Vogel’s Spike veers off-course and slams into the concrete pillar next to the glass. Ouch! She then falls 30 feet on to the concrete below. Evidently Zemeckis saw a silver lining in this on-set mishap, as that take is the one we see in the film. Keep up the good work.

So great to see that someone actually recognise certain aspects and pays attention to the film. I’ve seen many reactions to the franchise and some just didn’t noticed anything at all. It’s such a gorgeous franchise I regularly rewatch at least once a year.

They had a special camera that can record and splice the same actor doing two or more roles.

Ive seen the trilogy like a million times and can probably get every trivia question right regarding the movies but the coolest rewatch of the movies was seeing all 3 back to back to back with like a 15 minute intermission between each movie in theater was so awesome. It was 12 bucks to see all 3 which included a large popcorn and large drink with free refills. 2nd coolest time was when my work paid for us all to see the first movie at a drive in theater which was my first time at a drive in and learned that you'd change the radio to a certain frequency and listen to the audio in your car while watching it on the screen.

I've mentioned this before in your other reaction videos, but you tend to catch a lot more than most reactors do when watching movies, and I love it! Have you ever considered becoming a filmmaker? :)

This movie should be called "Chekov's Gun, The Movie" with all its callbacks! 😍

Love watching your reactions. I saw these in the theater when they came out in the 80s. Still play well. You have a great personality that makes sharing your experience fun. Thanks.

"Primer" is the ultimate cerebral time travel movie... worth a watch on your downtime. It will leave the mind spinning.

This is my all time favorite movie series. I mustve seen it hundreds of time but...every time i see a reactor watch this movie i have to post this. In the first movie its established that when doc sent einstein to the future, he "disappeared" for a minute. Marty and doc lived a whole minute without him. Einstein didnt "arrive" in a future where he was there and a version of einstein who was 1 minute older was there as well. So when marty and doc go to the future, marty's family wouldve reported marty missing because they wouldnt have caught up with him for 30 years. I mean theres tons of other examples but this one has always bugged me the most. But its never stopped me from enjoying the movies!

They sold those Shoes Aka Nike MAGS for a charity Auction the average pair size 5 sold for 5k all the way up to 15k for size 13, they also came inside the same case doc brought them out in.

37:47 "Also the talent of this cast to act (...) four or five different versions of themselves (...)" If you are impressed by that, you definitely need to watch the TV series Orphan Black (assuming you haven't yet). You're gonna love Tatiana Maslany in all of her ten roles :D

Enjoying your reactions gorgeous....❤❤ Parts 2 and 3 were filmed back to back to maintain the main actors appearance 😊

The first cliffhanger in cinema history.

The Cyberpunk genre mainly got its look from Blade Runner, which came out long before this.

LOVE THE STARFIELD LIGHT IN THE BACKGROUND. LITE THAT SHIT UP DOOD

Zemeckis is a very inventive filmmaker. His films from the 80s and 90s are among most of my favorites. The actors playing multiple parts in a scene were accomplished with a camera that could repeat its movements exactly by computer program. It allowed editors to splice the takes together without any visible cues that gave away the effect.

35:25 The one thing that sticks out to me is Marty’s “what are you, chicken?” shtick that features so prominently in the sequels. This character flaw is nonexistent in the first film.

loved watching you pick up on all the little things they were dropping in this one -- great reaction!

Great reaction ❤. The trailer is not really a total spoiler. Just shows you scenes from the third one. Please watch the third one because at the end there is a special message at the end of the movie. Many question the movie many times and that means they ignored that message. Half of the Back to the Future "Fans" would have it be over within 15 minutes part 2 and 3. 😊

When they are getting ready to go back to 1985 and the circuits glitch, the date blinking up was 1885. I think that was the first clue setting up the third film that I can recall.

Always look forward to your reactions! And this one lived up to the expectations as all your previous ones have. Also, as usual, your observation skills and deducing skills are top notch!

back then a few decades ago ... this Cliffhanger drives me crazy @ 34:00 🙂

The 3rd Back To The Future film is my favourite one.

"I don't know what to expect from this." is I think an accurate statement for anyone watching this, even as you're watching and the story is unfolding, cause it's so wild.

Due to a noticeable height difference between the two main actors, various camera tricks were used to hide that fact. For instance, one actor would be bending down for some reason, and the other would be standing straight. Or sometimes, something like an over-the-shoulder shot was used. Another example was when they were on the street, the shot was taken looking down the road. One actor was close to the camera, while the other was farther down the street, then later they would switch positions. 41:15 into the video would better explain it.

All the money Biff paid each time to have manure cleaned out of his car… he realized there was good money in auto detailing and decided to go into that line of work.

The actor playing Biff, Thomas F. Wilson, really is talented. In more recent years, he's been doing a good amount of voice-over over work, most notably for various characters in "SpohgeBob SquarePants", as well as in its spinoff "The Patrick Star Show" as Patrick's dad.

Yes *Jennifer Parker* was recast & so was *George Mcfly* *Claudia Wells* (mother had cancer) & was replaced by *Elisabeth Shue* who was popular in the *80's* from other classics like *The Karate Kid & Adventures in Babysitting* *Crispin Glover* had disagreements on the editing choices in the first film & ultimately a Salary dispute is why he did't return to focus on projects that were more of his interest

Great! You've finally closed out the time loop, so I can finally give you my take on how this whole time travel loop business works! When Marty _first_ went back to 1955 in Part 1, it was the "current" version of Marty who went back. His life was made up of whatever events occurred up to the point when he first time travelled back to 1955. He then went and did some things that changed the course of future events, and when he went back to 1985, he had created a _new_ 1985 in which a few small things about his life, and the lives of those around him, had changed. But most importantly (or perhaps second most importantly, next to his mother getting over her crush on him), that course of events created a _new_ Marty, who then proceeded about a similar course of events leading up to _that_ Marty travelling back to 1955, in which he may do things differently, creating another new course of events leading to another new Marty in 1985, and the cycle repeats. Keep in mind this is a different branch from the original Marty's timeline, so when each successive Marty goes back, he necessarily creates a new 1955 each time, because that branch loops back from a different future branch. So yes, you were right, this does create a time loop of sorts. And while it might sound like this is problematic, keep in mind some people believe our universe is one in an infinite multiverse of parallel universes, with a new one created every moment due to quantum scale uncertainty affecting the outcome of events. So the creation of an infinite loop of parallel timelines only makes the infinite number of parallel universes in the multiverse into a slightly larger infinite number of parallel universes in the multiverse. Anyway, interesting you mention cyberpunk, I would normally recommend the book Neuromancer by William Gibson, which was an early cyberpunk novel that popularised the term _cyberspace_ and brought the cyberpunk genre from obscurity to the masses. It was published in 1984, so it definitely would've been widely-known by 1989, so it wouldn't surprise me at all if Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale had read it before they started working on the screenplay for this movie. I'd _normally_ recommend it, however the "plus" app of Apple TV have announced they've greenlit the first season of a Neuromancer series, so you may want to watch that if you're interested in reacting to a TV series. (I normally also recommend the audiobook, but the one narrated by Robertson Dean, his voice is to die for!) Lastly (if you're still reading this!), I'll just say I'm glad you enjoyed Part 2, and can't wait to see you enjoy Part 3!

Wish 2015 and 2024 were like this if bttf was made today Marty would go back in the 90s

It's always awesome to see someone reacting to a classic movie for the first time. Great reaction, Teegan! Loving the new channel!
