At the end Marty’s dad wasn’t being a bully! Biff lied to him about putting on a second coat of wax and George saw through the lie. That’s not bullying, that’s getting the work you paid for done!
Its this generation of adults.. the tiniest thing is billing. Part of the problem when that whole bs of anti billing started. All it did was make most people pc butthurt. And make the people that were "bullied" into....bullies
Yep. The true "Revenge of the Nerds" is that the nerds ARE the bullies now (mostly through sheer numbers and institutional support for their crybullying, not any physical courage on their part). Just more proof that nobody ever really wants to free the slaves, they just want the whip hand for themselves.
There's a subplot that they never make explicit, but it's there if you pay attention : George is left-handed. Until the 70s there was a big misconception that being left-handed was a defect and/or evil, and left-handed kids were forced to use their right hands. George is seen writing with his right hand and it looks like he doesn't even know how to hold a pencil properly. It wasn't until Biff disabled his right hand and he was forced to use a left hook that he started to both see his potential and decide to stop trying to be a righty. Without that left hook, he lived his whole life still trying to be a righty, still awkward, no confidence.
Thomas F. Wilson (Biff) is actually a really nice guy in real life. In the scene where Biff is harassing Lorraine in the car, he couldn't stop apologising to her in between takes! Apparently he was bullied himself as a kid, and channelled his experiences into creating this villain. If you enjoyed this movie, you will love Parts 2 and 3!
He is very funny in real life and deserves to be a much better known character actor.. he seems happy with his career, but Hollywood should really be putting him in everything.
There was a story that the original Marty McFly (Eric Stoltz) was insistent on method acting so when they filmed the fight scenes, Eric was being too rough despite Thomas asking him to ease up. They had yet filmed the scene where Biff puts George in the arm lock and that was where Thomas intended to get his "revenge" but Stoltz was fired before he got that chance.
If Marty returned to 1985 too early and stopped the terrorists, then Marty would not have needed to escape from those terrorists, he would never have gotten into the time machine, and never would have gone into the past to warn Doc, creating a paradox.
"Is that cereal?" No, it's peanut brittle, it refers back to a deleted scene in which George's neighbour talks him (George) into buying a case of peanut brittle from his (neighbour's) daughter, so that she can sell the whole thing at once instead of going door to door. They cut the scene because its only purpose was to make George look pathetic but the scene with Biff did more than enough to establish that.
When Marty goes to meet Doc, its at the "Twin Pines Mall". Doc mentions that the land was owned by a tree farmer. When Marty first goes back in time, he runs over 1 of 2 pine trees. When he goes to the future to save Doc, the sign in front of the mall says "Lone Pine Mall". 😯
There's a fan theory I recently heard about it being strange that a tree farmer would only have two trees, leading to speculation that this happened multiple times, with Marty destroying a tree each time.
@@jamesmoore4003I was going to mention it if he didn't. This ignited many "the other DeLorean" and "the other Marty" discussions amongst my gaming group back in the Eighties,...and that was before the other two movies came out.
This film is used as an example of a perfect script in film schools. Absolute first class film, it is indeed perfect. I've been unable not to say "Think McFly, think" whenever I hear anyone saying "anyone home", its just ingrained in my psyche now.
@@aerthreepwood8021 It is true though. Now that’s not to say it’s part of every curriculum, but certain teachers use it as an example for continuity, structure and how they keep it flowing while portraying multiple iterations of the same characters through out the story.
@@aerthreepwood8021 It might sound like that, but it's not. I've been to film school and can confirm it is used as a quintessential example to teach the fundamental structure for a Hollywood screenplay. It's not the only film used this way obviously. And I can't recall if my professors ever actually used the word "perfect" (College was decades ago for me now). But it was used as a prime example of how to structure a screen play and how to pace out the fundamental structure points of a story.
What film matchbook schools are you talking about?! To suggest Back to the Future is an example of a perfect script, albeit adorable, is a ridiculous thing to proclaim.
One running joke modern viewers tend to miss is the DeLorean, it looks fantastic but it was famous, and notorious, for being a heap of junk under the bodywork that was constantly breaking down. Hence Marty's incredulous comment, "You made a time machine, out of a DeLorean?" and why it keeps stalling at crucial moments, the real DeLorean were famous for that.
Also, the production Delorean's speedometer only went up to 85mph. In stock form, there's no way that thing could've made it to 88mph, so Doc Brown pretty much had to sup it up.
@@CDNChaoZ It's quite amusing modern audiences without the context see the Delorean as this fancy, space age car associated most with this time travel film lending it a futuristic supercar air, and in reality (and the joke) is it was the complete opposite. It was an overly expensive, rubbish sports car.
@pettytyrant2720 You left out the other old joke about the car due to John DeLorean's,...umm, habits: that every car came with a brick of cocaine in the glove box.
The people never have noticed that Marty could have convinced easily Doc Brown that he's from the future by simply showing his digital watch with integrated calculator.
Funny movie fact. In the scene where Marty drinks out of Lorraine's bottle of alcohol when they are are in the car, the movie staff put actual strong alcohool in the bottle so his reacion to it is authentic.
Chuck Berry released "Johnny B. Goode" in 1958. Three years after this scene at the dance. In '85, we all knew the song "Johnny B. Goode" as "an oldie but a goodie." I notice most younger movie reactors think the song is from the 80's. But, thanks to this film, it did have a comeback and there was even a movie starring everyone's favorite geek, Anthony Michael Hall, in a then, rare roll, as a jock, called "Johnny Be Good." Naturally, it used "Johnny B. Goode" as its title song. Oh, and there is nothing wrong with a younger individual not knowing that this song is much older than they think it is. When "Puttin on the Ritz" was released by Taco in '82, I thought the song was brand spanking new. But it was originally released in '29. My first introduction into remakes. But I digress. Anyway, enjoyed your reaction as always. You are fun to watch.
I always find it a privilege to point out that the guy on the phone makes a point to say, "Chuck, it's your cousin...Marvin. Marvin Berry!" It's a fun little tie-in to Chuck Berry. It sucks that there is a group who believe this homage was more of a dis' to Berry. Crediting a white teenager for Chuck's unique rock n' roll style... But I think Chuck Berry got more recognition, IRL, because of this movie. Did you know his only #1 hit in the US was for "My Ding-a-Ling"?
In the real world, rock'n'roll (as opposed to rock) derived from 1940s & 1950s influences, including the original hip-hop & swing, not to mention rockabilly. All of these were influenced by country music, blues, and R&B.
Another interesting tidbit about this scene. Marty is in 1955 but the guitar he's playing is a Gibson ES-345. Gibson didn't release that model until 1959.
@@danielcameron9857 Plus, this represents a fun "closed loop" paradox. If Chuck Berry learned the song from Marty, and Marty was playing a Chuck Berry song, who actually wrote it?
Loved your reactions, Dawn Marie. This is a fantastic movie, that can be seen and enjoyed, again and again. And we still have two sequels to look forward to. :)
@@DawnMarieX If you've watched them already, you'll have noticed them going 'back' to the western genre in the third film. Around that time was a new resurgence to the ole western films that had not been tapped for quite some time, especially since the spaghetti westerns of the 60's and 70's that you checked out and loved so much. So maybe you might wanna go try out some of the westerns that were coming out at the time, like Silverado and Clint Eastwood's return in Pale Rider. If anything, they influenced fashions in the 80's so much that long coat were quite the norm for some years.
@@DawnMarieXI was going to say when you watch the next one, DO NOT watch the "To Be Continued" portion at the end of the movie. It's spoiler scenes of the 3rd movie. But I might be too late to suggest that.
@@chefskiss6179 Both of those are great westerns! Any of Tom Selleck's westerns are great, too, but Quigley Down Under and Crossfire Trail are my favs of his from around that time.
22:04 To answer your question, yes, it was really like that in the 50s. My dad grew up in the 50s and 60s, and his absolute favorite part of this movie is when Marty first peeks around the corner and sees the town square with "Mr. Sandman" playing in the background. They did really well with the details for the time period (there were plenty of people working on the movie that knew what it should be like). Dad's family was poor (5-kid family in a 2-room log cabin), but he still says it was a great time to live in. One other thing: I noticed a lot of reactors are confused about the guy wearing 3D glasses. 3D was pretty popular during that time, so that guy thought he was the epitome of cool wearing them. 😆
I always loved when Doc sees the flux capacitor for the first time. When he screams, "it works!" It references Dr. Frankenstein bringing his monster to life. "It's alive!"
The teacher in charge of the talent show auditions, the “too loud” guy, is Huey Lewis. He’s the guy who sings “Back In Time” and “The Power Of Love” on the soundtrack. Wonderful artist. Supposed to be Marty’s favorite singer. This is many people’s favorite movie, especially comedians and comedic writers. This one and ‘Big’. You should definitely do that one, too.
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In '87, Huey released Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.
There was a comic book series several years ago, "Time and Vine" by Thom Zahler, where the characters had the power to travel into the past by drinking wine from that year. That was the strangest time-travel method I've ever heard of.
Marty did play a time traveling guitar in this movie, though. Marvin Berry lends Marty his Gibson ES-345 to play at the dance. Those weren’t even in production until 1958.
Hands down Michael J fox was the greatest actor of my childhood I loved everything he was in. Seeing him these days makes me so sad but what an actor he was
Great reaction. "I'd lick his nose." "I'd lick his nose"!!! really weird, but one of the funniest comments on any movie, I actually had to pause you to stop laughing and get my breath back. The picture in my mind of you licking his nose is still making me smile 😂😂 Looking forward to parts II & III.
My brothers and I took my mom to see this in 1985. In spite of a few uncomfortable moments we all laughed throughout the movie. One of the best memories I have. All of them are gone now. Thank you for picking this film trilogy and taking me back to a better time. You will definitely like those films that follow.
Fun Fact 1 : Michael J Fox was filming this movie AND Family Ties and he had a car with a mattress to have a nap travelling between sets, so when it looks like hes exhausted its because he really is.
The song Marty plays at the dance gets released just a couple years later. The guy on the phone identifies himself as Marvin Berry, and he is talking on the phone to his cousin Chuck. As in Chuck Berry, the soon-to-be author of the song. 🤩🤙
The entire trilogy tells one, big continuous story, so don't wait too long to enjoy the rest. Part of their charm is the easter eggs and callbacks between the films. Also, if you don't like spoilers, stop watch part II right as the words "to be concluded" appear on-screen. There's a full-on trailer for part III right afterwards.
I remember how weird it felt in 2015, to realise it was as close to the film's 1985 setting as 1955 was to it. I've been to the town square with the clock. It's part of the Universal Studios set, and the tour takes you past it. It's been used in countless films and TV shows.
The original Back to the Future movie was meant to be a stand alone movie, but it ended up being a blockbuster hit and the ending as just suppose to be funny. The truth is many people thought it was going to flop in the box office, so when it did so well many people were surprised which lead studio to decide to make the sequels. The first one of my favorite of the three, but I loved them all.
If you notice, when Doc Brown punches in the destination of 1955 at the beginning he kind of hesitates. I used to think that he was just reminded of when he came up with the flux capacitor. But now I believe that he's just made the connection and realized that he's the catalyst for everything that's about to happen over the next 3 movies.
You don't show it here, but one of my favorite gags of the movie is about the mall. Originally it is called "Twin Pines Mall" at the start of the movie. Though if you remember when Marty went back in time he ran over one of the two trees. So near the end of the movie you can see on the sign it now says "Lone Pine Mall"
I'm 69 on SSI I'm sorry I can't follow you on patreon. But a movie suggestions for people to vote on is: perfume the story of a murderer. It is well acted in unlike anything you've ever seen
So, just as a warning. Some people don't care for the second one by itself too much. If you end up being one of those, push on to the third one anyway. The second and third movies were filmed at the same time and released in theaters just a few months apart from each other, they're really meant to be seen as one long story, which is why the second one feels kind of uneven, kind of unfinished, because it's supposed to be seen in context with the last one. Taken as a whole this is one of the best trilogies of all time so it's great that you're seeing it for the first time!
Many studios had a chance to make this film but passed because they thought it was too innocent. Disney was the only one that passed because the interplay between Marty and his mom, though harmless, didn't meet their wholesome "family values" image
The song Marty plays at the dance is "Johnny B. Goode", by Chuck Berry. Marvin Berry, Chuck's cousin, calls Chuck and he hears that song. So, Marty helped start Rock and Roll. LOL!
I'm more and more impressed with Dawn. She's obviously able to rustle up weapons, a tank and a helicopter in a couple of hours, expecting Marty to do so. She's connected! :D
No, rather I suspect this is a critique on her view of Americans, especially in the 80's. I mean, look how easily the terrorists had a rocket propelled grenade launcher!
The dad is Crispen Glover. A multi talented actor, he sued multiple people in the studio, executives, producers, because of this series. He was pretty ch blacklisted from Hollywood bfor 20 years, but all actors owe him a huge debt of gratitude.
My favourite movie series of all time. A fantastic choice. It is all the small details that make this trilogy great. Michael J Fox is a true hero. I really enjoyed your reaction to this classic movie thank you Dawn it's almost like I'm watching it again for the first time. xxx
36:56 Congratulations, you've hit upon a well known paradox called the predestination paradox, basically a time loop where information causes itself to happen. A more classical example is taking a recording of Beethoven's music back in time and playing it to Beethoven (at some point in his life where he could still hear, naturally), which inspires him to write the piece he heard... which you later take back in time to play to him. Since you got it from him and he got it from you, the information seems to come from no where... so who wrote it originally? One solution is that your time machine actually doesn't go back in time, it goes to an alternate universe where time is offset from yours by several hundred years. In that instance, the music WAS written by Beethoven in your universe, but in the one you travel to, Beethoven is visited by you and gifted the music from your universe. Of course, since we actually can't go back and check, it's possible that happened in EVERY universe and Beethoven's music is actually from some other writer who wrote it at an unknown time... which pushes us dangerously close to the "How do we know anything is true?" line of thinking, which is the eventual point of most philosophical thought experiments. But anyway, paradoxes are fun to think about and you'll encounter a lot of them in time travel stories since time only flows in one direction in our universe. They will expand your thinking and make your head hurt at the same time. :)
At first, I read predestination as pedestrian. I guess it was my density to do so. I should have known that paradox was too sophisticated to be considered pedestrian.
Doc Brown’s house is in Pasadena, CA. It is The Gamble House museum. The family (of Procter & Gamble) built it as a winter home in 1908. It is widely considered the pinnacle of Arts & Crafts architecture.
Wow! That's good information. I was watching wondering what house that was and when it was built. As somewhat of an architecture fan, I knew it looked very Arts & Crafts, and I would have guessed around that decade, but it's good to know the details for sure!
Good call with the Halloween connection. It's the very same road that was used for the fictional town of Haddonfield, Illinois in Halloween. It's actually located in South Pasadena, California, near Los Angeles. The location was also used in another Michael J. Fox movie being filmed around the same time, Teen Wolf. In that one, his house is the same house used for Lorraine in Back to the Future. The song "Johnny B. Goode" was written by Chuck Berry in 1955, but he didn't record it until, I think, 1958. Anyway, that's who Marvin Berry calls on the phone during the song.
Absolutely one of my all-time favorite films and the series is just sublime. It's also great that you're uploading this the day before Christopher Lloyd (who played Doc Brown) turns... 85!
When Marty was playing Johnny B Goode (By Chuck Barry) at the dance, the guitarist that cut his hand, named Marvin Barry, was on the phone with his cousin Chuck when he was talking about the new sound he was looking for and to “Listen to this”
Its implied that the guy the band leader is on the phone with is Chuck Berry, who is the person who actually debuted Johnny b. Goode. So, he introduced the actual artist to the song and type of music.
Yay Dawn! Shout out from the US Marine Corps! So happy that you haven't watched this trilogy yet! I can't wait to journey on this adventure with you! This is definitely by Far the best trilogy of all times besides for a Star Wars. And it's so cool that well I can't say anything yet because I don't want to spoil back to the future part two for you! But you'll see what I'm talking about! Anyways in the words of Tom Brady let's go! O nevermind I can say it, I forgot it happened in this one! The Star Wars reference in this movie is epic! Kekek
@@weepingscorpion8739 BTTF is a perfect trilogy and nothing wrong with liking it more but SW has a greater cultural impact and has held up better (BTTF 2 is really dated).
@@IdealUserGreater cultural impact, sure, and BTTF2's prediction's of the future not becoming a reality is just part of the gamble with making movies set in the future. Like we're not eating Soylent Green either. But that is pretty irrelevant when talking about what movies one likes the best, as best movie is always a subjective opinion. And IMHO, BTTF is better than the SW trilogy.
The music's composer is Alan Silvestri who later did Predator. Excluding the Back to the Future main theme, the soundtracks are actually in a very similar style. :D
Yes , thus is small-town life in the 50's in America. The guy in Biff's "gang" with the toothpick is actor Billy Zane (Rose's fiance Cal from "Titanic")
Hi Dawn, it's great you've started this amazing trilogy :) Please react to parts 2 & 3 asap :) many reactors leave months inbetween parts... It befuddles me as to why. I love your reactions and I'm subscribed - with the notification bell switched on ;)
You are in for a treat. This is, in my opinion, the best trilogy ever! Each film is just as good as the last if not better! All 3 movies are incredible! I look forward to your reactions. 😊
33:22 It never hit me until I was an adult but the Doc's whoop when he sees his invention actually works gets me real emotional nowadays. Also playing devil's advocate, Marty has just seen what changing the past can do, so maybe he gives himself the shortest amount of time to save the Doc, without the risk of stopping himself from going back in time in the first place.
He couldn't prevent the doc from getting shot by any means. It was that event that catapulted him into going to 1955. He would have had to convince himself to making that trip into the past so he'd be there to save the doc in the first place.
Considering that Marty not even thought about traveling to an earlier point in 1985, I don't think he really thought about any consequences. He just thought: I have to warn Doc. Marty had no strategic planning.
Yes, the movie "Halloween" (1978) and "Back to the Future" (1985) both used the same neighborhood for some of their exterior shots. Both films utilized areas in South Pasadena, California, for key scenes. Specifically, Michael Myers' house from "Halloween" is located at 1000 Mission Street, while George McFly's house in "Back to the Future" is at 1711 Bushnell Avenue. These locations are part of the same general neighborhood, making it a popular area for filming due to its quintessential suburban look.
Great Scott! Wonderful reaction and Dawn Marie's experience during Part 2 is going to be fun. 🤣🤣 Today was hoping tomorrow Dawn Marie would post a Back To The Future reaction yesterday 'cause there's no time like the present to start a fabulous movie trilogy.
You are totally correct about the problems of time travel, in terms of going back in time. It creates paradoxes which can't be solved. Including if you could go back, people would do so and introduce technologies which hadn't been invented yet - which means they should already be here. Lots of science fiction deals with this problem in different ways.
It was released that way in the theater, because they actually filmed both movies together for the most part. It was a great tease for a movie we only had to wait a year for. Something rather unheard of up to that time. Three years was a pretty average wait between movies back then.
I have watched this a bazillion times and never noticed Marty sniffing Jennifer’s hair at 6:23!!! I have noticed his Dad George close to Lorraine’s hair in the malt shop after Marty punches Biff and has to run. Lorraine jumps up and is even more in love with Marty in that few seconds, “it’s Calvin Klein, oh my god, he’s a dream.” George is very close to her hair getting intoxicated by her hair’s aroma!😂😂😂
Time Travel in these movies makes more sense if you think of each person having their own time line. So everybody's life is a straight piece of string. Marty's string now has a loop in it because he went back then, back to his starting point where he left from. So Marty is now one week older than everyone else.
Lea Thompson is still one of my forever crushes. ❤ P.S... I stole my Google/YT name from Doc in this movie. It's always been a special childhood movie of mine.
Eric Stoltz was originally cast as Marty McFly and they filmed with him in that role for about 6 weeks before Robert Zemeckis decided he just didn't have the comedic ability for the part. But they also wanted someone shorter to contrast with Biff (Thomas F. Wilson), who was 6'2". Stoltz was 6 feet tall, but they wanted someone Wilson would really tower over in stature, so the 5'4" Michael J. Fox fit the bill there too.
The stuff being poured into the dish is peanut brittle. It is hard toffee with peanuts. Its a cofection popular in the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's as a snack or served to guests during parties. It still exists but not as popular.
This is the reason they did not have Marty go back earlier. The worst thing you can tell your audience is that it was all a dream or basically, everything you just experienced didn't matter. If Marty would have gone back earlier, it's likely him and Doc would have done something which would have prevented Marty from going on his adventure at all. Good for the characters, but terrible for the audience.
Every rock music loving kid back in 1985 wanted to get blasted backwards by an overpowered speaker! The teacher who told Marty that his band was too loud, is Huey Lewis, lead singer of the theme songs for this movie series!
Over here in the USA when I was a boy we did have live bands at our school dances. The first dance I went to I was in 7th grade, we did a fund drive to raise money to pay the band, they were barely older than us in fact my cousin was the drummer! Every school dance I attended from then through High School had a live band that we kids raised money for.
Chuck Berry hears Marty playing Johnny B Goode over the phone. In 1958 the song and Chuck become even more famous. Marty never had it copy written when he was back in 55, so Chuck was in the clear claiming it was his own....lol. Ahhh, gotta love time travel movies. Quantum Leap is a great late 80's early 90's tv series about time leaping and changing history for the better.
SAD TRIVIA: They had to recast Marty's Girlfriend for Back to the Futures 2 and 3 with Elizabeth Shue, As Claudia Wells had to take care of her Mother, whom was Diagnosed with Cancer. OTHER TRIVIA: The Teacher that told Marty his band was "Just too loud" was Huey Lewis (From the Rock Band Huey Lewis and the News)... He also wrote and performed the Opening number "Power of Love".
Both Halloween & Back To The Future used several locations in South Pasadena, CA during their production. George McFly's house in 1955 is located at 1711 Bushnell Ave. in South Pasadena. Marty McFly visited George at this house and dressed as an alien to scare George into asking out Lorraine McFly. Just down the street is Lorraine's house at 1727 Bushnell Ave. Fun fact: the house also appeared in Teen Wolf starring Michael J. Fox. The home of Doctor Emmett Brown is actually the historic Gamble House in Pasadena. The Gamble House is a California Historical Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The clock tower & square are let of the Universal Studios backlot & have been in countless films from To Kill A Mockingbird, to Gremlins (in the cinema Marty crashes into, is the one the Gremlins watch Snow White in).
29:53 well that song is Johnny b goode by Chuck Berry and it was relese in 1958. So I guess Chuck Berry would simply present the song as he made it. Also if you pay attention you can see that the lead singer of the band is calling Chuck Berry to tell him about this new sound. So everything would work out
Unlike most of those who've commented here, I didn't get to see "Back to the Future" when it was released. I missed going to the movies because I was working a aviation maintenance job 12 hours a day, six days a week on a midnight shift when this flick was in theaters. At the time "The Lost Boys" became popular with the tagline "sleep all day, party all night, it's great to be a vampire." My work buddies and I would say "sleep all day, work all night, it sucks being a vampire." That said, the trilogy became so iconic it made it onto TCM in the early 2000s close to 20 years after its release, something that's rare for movies of that era. Anyway, I got the luxury of seeing them back to back without having to wait for a year or so to see the next one. The funny thing was the number of people complaining on social media that there were no hover cars invented in 2015, 8 years have gone by and still on hover cars! (Personally, I think the Keurig coffee machine is the greatest invention of the 21st century.) Of note is Part III, set in 1885, featuring long time cowboy sidekicks Dub Taylor, Harry Carey Jr, and Pat Buttram, it could be added to your list of watched westerns. Of note, is the love interest for Doc Brown, Clara Clayton, played by Mary Steenburgen. Ironically, Mary Steenburgen had starred in the 1979 Sci-fi "Time After Time" with Malcolm McDowell, and David Warner. (Warner was one of my favorite screen heavies, he just recently passed away.) It's another time travel flick where H.G. Wells pursues Jack the Ripper to the 20th Century when the serial murderer uses the future writer's time machine to escape his time period. That one I did get to see at the base theater at Shaw AFB SC where movies cost us one dollar...
The reason Lorraine's parent's neighborhood looks similar to the one in Halloween is the scenes were shot within a few blocks of each other in South Pasadena, California. The homes there have a very specific look and architecture and the locals protect it and their neighborhoods fiercely. If you do a quick IMDB & Google Maps search, their are interactive maps where you can virtually walk down the street as it exists now, then switch to a movie or TV shot that was taken there.
