Back to the Future I, II, & III - Because You Watched Starcrash

Back to the Future(1985), Back to the Future Part II (1989), and Back to the Future Part III (1990)

“What are you looking at, Butthead?”

In an amazing finale, your time-traveling Distinguished Professors end their journey with the Back to the Future trilogy! Topics discussed include Back to the Future’s enduring excellence, the issues with the sequels, Part II’s surprisingly weak visual effects (other than the various duplicate actor shots), the Jaws jokes in Part II, Goldie Wilson and Chuck Berry as time-travel causality conundrums, Part I as the perfect script, yet another discussion of David Sirota’s Back to Our Future and the 1980s’ pop culture connection back to the 1950s, a weird quiz for Clink, the removal of Crispin Glover, runaway product placement, perceptions of time travel shown in the movies, dark theories regarding multiple dead Martys, a bit about how the DeLorean time travels, the badassery of James Tolkan, Mary Steenburgen as the eternal time traveling weirdo’s girlfriend, Pat Buttram’s brief appearance, Marty’s darling atomic cowboy outfit and an unexpected criticism of 1950s nostalgia for the Old West, Marty’s ancestor is boning his mom’s ancestor (?!), a shoutout to the Wizard and the Bruiser podcast and Marty’s “chicken” hubris, future Biff is disturbingly Trump-y, Flea’s cameo, Doc would fail Temporal Ethics at Starfleet Academy, our impending date with Howard the Duck, the weird choice of ZZ Top to be the soundtrack pop song anchor for Part III, the great Alan Silvestri score, a callback to Action Replayy, incest comes up yet again, the two tension-building clocks in Part I and the color-coded logs in Part III, the radically different landscape for Part III, our ideal retrofutures, a gold star for Marty for not murdering Mad Dog Tannen, and making like a tree and getting out of here.
