I've been rewatching all the BTTF.films this week. They are still immensely entertaining. How time flies! I was exactly Marty's age when the first film came out. That means I am now his future age in the 2nd movie. Quite bizarre!
Anyway, I wanted to mention a few film related details, some of which I picked up on for the first time.
In the first film, set in 1955 we see (fleetingly in the background), a 16mm Bell and Howell projector. However, it looks like a 600 series model which didn't come out until the following decade. Looks like the Doc must have invented time travel before knowing it!
Also, on another note, the predictions of BTTF2 are quite interesting. In the 2nd film, the Delorean arrives next to trash cans full of laser discs. Whatever happened to them! There is also projected video on household walls. They got that right! Finally, a hologram version of the Jaws series? Can't wait for that!
