Back to the Future | Movie Reaction | First Time Watching 

Word got around.

Lol😂 it’s a shame these fine details are hard to catch on first watch. But these reactors do a great job understanding most of the details.

I assumed it was always George🤪

That's the joke. Apparently, Lorraine is in the habit of changing her clothes in front of an open window.

Wow, you're right. How did I miss that with all the times I've watched this movie?

Yes! The Back to the Future trilogy was one of my absolute favorites to watch as a kid! Its so cool to see people discover it for the first time! Can't wait for Nikki to see the rest!

And the fact that the 2nd and the 3rd are every bit as good as the 1st film and I would say even better, especially the wild west 3rd movie:)

​@MICKEYISLOWD hey no spoilers

@@gdiaz8827 :D ... "wild west" is barely a spoiler ... but considering that every moment of this trilogy is gold ... granted

I always wondered why that scene had that focus....That's for sharing.

the fact that he found all the tiny pieces and taped it back together just destroys me 😭🖤

I'm not sure how many people watching this for the first time thought like I did, which was that Doc would get electrocuted and thus would break the cycle, so to speak.

@@hellonikkilu This movie is actually HYPER smart. Doc puts the pieces of the letter back in his jacket pocket when they notice the tree branch falls. So it wasn't as difficult!

oh my gosh I just went back to watch that moment and you’re so right!!! every minute of this movie is so well thought out, it’s insane 😭

@@hellonikkilu also I am now subbed, cause heck this video made me happy!

"Who's the Vice President, Jerry Lewis?" *perfection*

I SO miss the simpler way of life from a more innocent/naive time. We definitely had some serious issues that we addressed over time (racism, etc), thank goodness. What's really freaky to think about is how much things have changed between 1985 and now! My daughter was born in 1980; there are so many differences in everything that many younger reactors simply don't understand in the movie. It's like we live on another planet.

@@treetopjones737 And Jack Benny for Sec. of the Treasury, whose most iconic joke was his telling of having been held up by a mugger. Guy demands Benny's "money or your life." Moment of silence. Guy says "well?" Benny replies "I'm thinking, I'm thinking." (I.e., his whole schtick was how much of a tightwad he was.) From our current viewpoint looking back, most people, if they even heard of Reagan, don't know he was an actor. (The movie has his name on the marquee starring in a western with Barbara Stanwyck.) He was a B movie actor, too. To many people, up until election night in 1980, his chances were deemed a joke.

@@leslieoneal4464 Part of the claims of viewing the past through rose-colored glasses was that in the midst of events, it can be very VERY scary how they may turn out. When you look back, you know most threats come to naught. In the 1950's, atomic warfare was only a matter of time, not if. Commies were under every bed. Beatniks, hippies, pot, and protests were the harbinger of a complete collapse of society. Vietnam starting to flare up represented the tipping point of the domino effect where communism would take over all of Asia. At the same time, some things seem more innocent because we didn't know to look. The idea of child molestation was something far removed, only committed by a stranger in a raincoat (i.e., flasher), never a close relative or trusted professional. Sexual assault on women was thought to only happen to those whose sexy attire made them "ask for it." (The depiction of Biff in the car with Lorraine would be taken much more serious if filmed today, and no way would she, in the improved future, allow this guy around the house doing odd jobs.) Racial injustice was ignored. Aids was just beginning but thought to only affect gay men and people from Haiti, hence during the Reagan years, the FDA ignored it.

It *is* used in film classes as a "perfect movie." Practically nothing is wasted, and there's a ton of callbacks and payoffs later in the movie, it's infinitely rewatchable.

The editing is also absolutely on point. Sneaky good!

@@Melancthon7332 💯

I totally agree. He doesn't mansplain the film or inject himself into it. He knows exactly why her personality is gold and letting her have the moment. I respect that.

I came to write a comment like this...well said and I agree 100%. Makes the reaction so much better.

Yes!!! I wasn't sure how to take the chuckling in the background but after a couple of videos I'm a fan!

"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" 🙂

@tubekulose absolutely should be included. That one is full of familiar faces

He was the Klingon villain in Star Trek the Search for Spock, he's My Favorite Martian and an amazing target for Dennis the Menace's mischief.

i loved him in taxi, although that's a show

@@LordToddtastic666 Indeed!

I’m a victim of that myself. I only learned that relatively recently

this is my favorite fact I’ve learned since watching! 🖤

This is an age thing. We're old and we know things like that, largely because we knew what Huey looked like. The younger generations do not

Yea, I've watched lots if this reactions and nobody I watched recognized Huey Lewis.

​@@camannwordsmithI saw them twice in concert.

There were no plans to make a sequel. The ending was a spoof.

3rd one was the worst

Such great movies. I've never met a single person that doesn't love these movies. How has she not seen them? Her reactions are so genuine. My only question is, is she high? Lol

Almost exactly the same for me but the other one was Jedi….actually I think I liked part 2 more at the time being 4 years older. Seeing Jedi though is the earliest memory I have which is weird because I was 15(kidding obviously,I was 3 and a half)

That’s also the youngest you’ll see him in any movie, since it was his first, and he was already 37 by then.

Car and its company were a big failure.

" And I suppose Jack Benny is the Secretary of the Treasury?"

I so enjoy your "categorized" fun facts.

My pleasure. Merry Christmas! ✝️ 🙏 🎄 🎁 Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍

Wow, I never noticed the Sherman and Peabody references before, lol.

“Snake! You’ve created a time paradox!”

So glad I wasn't the only to instantly have that thought 🤣🤣🤣

@@Jskew men of culture often think alike!

There’s actually a deleted scene where Doc bribes the cop with cash.

Quentin Tarantino agreed with you. He said in an interview it was one of the only perfect movies of all time 😊

It really is a perfect movie, one of the few, you're right.

totally agree. the balance of things in this film is incredible. I love the score/soundtrack... the moments when they are realizing something, the score nails that feeling flawlessly. it just makes you want to go back to these times, man wow.

And it's crazy they were so successful, yet still bought the same exact house in a crowded neighborhood. (and had room for a tennis court in the back yard) That's about the only large plot hole in this movie. Which is pretty impressive considering ALL the nuances they have looping back and forth through time (and movies)

Actually, that last scene in BTTF1 was set up as a sort of ending, just showing that the future would be wild. A sequel hadn't crossed their minds, since the movie had been turned down so many times by other studios (mainly due to the whole part about Marty/Lorraine and the incestuous vibe) and felt they'd be lucky if the movie would even break even. They had a few plot problems to figure out for part 2, like, why would Doc bring Jennifer along? But all things considered, they solved that one pretty nicely. Just a pity, that Claudia Wells couldn't return for the sequels, although Elizabeth Shue did quite well.

Yes, Roger Rabbit is sort of a time travel (for the audience) movie, too.

10. The filmmakers said Biff was inspired by Trump ( this was years before he got involved in politics ). Most strongly seen in Part II.

6. That's because he completely misunderstood what was being said. It wasn't saying that money made them a better family, it was self-confidence that made them prosperous.

Bringing politics into this is beyond STUPID. because Trump wasn't even thinking about anything political. @@treetopjones737

Crispin, You're not the playwright , just the player. @@Tensen01

I like how you can see in Biff’s face, a split second before it happens that he suddenly realizes what’s coming.

​@@asterix7842And can't quite believe what he's seeing, as nobody's ever successfully stood up to him before, least of all George McFly...

@@joehoy9242 Well, Marty punched Biff earlier in the movie, so I don't think that was the first time that ANYONE had stood up to him, but definitely the first time that George did.

@@MatthewTheWanderer - Marty effectively tricked Biff and threw a punch while he was distracted. George was so incensed at Biff's attempt to rape Lorraine (not Elaine... Aaargh!} and his throwing her to the floor when she tried to come to his defense that he overcame Biff's arm-lock and knocked him out with a single punch. The difference is that George took Biff out when Biff had the advantage.

@@joehoy9242 Yes, I know those events are different. Also, her name is Lorraine not Elaine.

I guess this basically proves, that Superman chose the perfect civilian disguise: Glasses! 😂

I love him in Titanic

"Sure, Jan." *thirsty*

Lorraine. I think they were 16 or 17.

He also left ''Twin Pine Mall'' and got back to ''Lone Pine Mall''. And the farmer that shot at Marty after crashing into his barn in '55 blew up his mailbox that said ''Peabody''.

Yup, in the "new" 1985, Goldie's a bit more discerning about the businesses operating around the main square. He's had longer to think about it, and had a point to prove to his old boss, Mr. Carruthers.

Hot damn. I've watched this movie more than 30 times over the last 30+ years and I too had never realised that about the theatre. Such a perfect film. They don't make 'em like this any more.

@vegancam in 1955 it was showing a Ronald Reagan film.

Cairo is always throwing shade 😂
