8 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Back to the Future

8-Stuff-You-Probably-Didnt-Know-About-Back-to-the-Future_h

Back to the Future is one of those films that makes you feel very lucky to have been born in the right decade. If it wasn’t one of the first movies you saw as a kid, then it most definitely blew your mind when you were old enough to have your parents coerce you into seeing it.

The ever adventurous Marty and eccentric Doc Brown will always be part of our childhood memories–if it wasn’t for their adventures through the space-time continuum, we wouldn’t have a lot of the tech that exists today. There are a few things, however, specifically Easter eggs and facts, that you might have missed in the excitement of your first, second, or third viewing.

Here are 8 things you probably didn’t know about Back to the Future:

8. Back to the Future: The Game is the closest thing we’ll get to BttF 4

The game version of this iconic movie was developed by Telltale Games and released in 2010 (the PS4 and Xbox One version will be released this month). This game, according to Bob Gale (the co-creator of Back to the Future), is not canon but rather an alternate timeline in the BttF series.

Although many people consider this game the fourth story of the original trilogy, it takes place in 1986–several months after the events of the third Back to the Future installment.

7. The movie was rejected by Disney because it wasn’t family friendly

Because in this movie, (SPOILER ALERT) Marty’s mom falls in love with him while he’s in the past. That’s right, his then-teenage mother falls in love with her time-traveling teen son. Disney declined the film, claiming that this plot development wasn’t family friendly.

6. Einstein was supposed to be a chimpanzee

Yep, the lovable Einstein (Doc Brown’s dog) was supposed to be a chimpanzee.

5. The DeLorean that was used in BttF III was on sale

The iconic car was sold for a whopping US $541,200 back in 2011 to private hands. It was the last of the three remaining BttF DeLoreans used in the movie. The proceeds went to the Michael J. Fox Foundation, the world’s largest private funder for Parkinson’s research.

4. Thomas Wilson (Biff Tannen aka Marty’s bully) had a stand-up comedy show

After the trilogy ended, Thomas started a stand-up comedy show about playing Biff. A lot of people asked about Marty rather than him, however. Guess it doesn’t pay, even in real life, to be “villain” of the movie!

3. The 2015 Antique Shop (BttF 2) featured a lot of easter eggs

A lot of Marty’s 1985 things were in this shop–namely the jacket he used in the first movie, as well as a Roger Rabbit doll as an homage to Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which was also by the same director of the BttF trilogy.

2. In BttF II, Doc wore something in reference to BttF III

The train shirt Doc wore in BttF II was actually a reference to BttF III. BttF III took place in Wild West and featured a train sequence.

1. The clock in BttF 1 featured a character from an old movie

The clock showed in the opening of BttF 1 featured Harold Lloyd in the 1923 film Safety Last, where Harold Lloyd is shown holding onto the minute hand of a clock tower.

After this week, Back to the Future will take place entirely in the past. Apart from blowing the minds of kids who have yet to see the movie, today commemorates our massive disappointment at still not having shoes that lace themselves, flying cars, and hoverboards.
