Hello, cinema fans. Today I'm going to tell you about one of the best science fiction movies I've ever seen in my life. Of all the time travel movies, there is none that compares or surpasses in popularity, success, influence and impact on the world of the seventh art and popular culture, as this film has done. Written and directed by Robert Zemeckis , this classic film of the 80s was produced by the great master of…More
Banner created with chatgpt Earlier this week I talked about our concept of time and how different timezones don't mean that we are all in different places in the time/space concept, we are just using different measurements for the same moment. After that, it gave me an idea since I needed to choose a movie to watch with my oldest daughter. Why not bring a classic sci-fi movie that she probably wouldn't be exposed t…More
Greetings! There are lots of time travel movies out there but only one of them made a mark on me when I was a kid, it is Back to the Future. Back to the Future is a classic and sets the bar on time travel when it comes to story originality and cinematography. Back to the Future also sets the bar on how time travel movies should be made. The narrative of Back to the Future is about the futuristic, historical, and tim…More
Talking about The Fifth Element last night gave me a real feeling for delving back into old-style films. You might not want to believe it if you're as old as me but 1997 was almost 30 years ago. Crazy, right? So today I'm going to be talking about good ol' Marty McFly and his best friend Doc Emmet Brown. I think everyone who's my age will remember this ending theme: *"Roads? Where we're going Marty, we don't need ro…More
This is not clickbait. This story is from the *Back to the Future* comics so the canonicity is questionable. For headcanon and filling in some of the details from the lives of the characters it is good. It isn't made clear if this is in the "original" timeline before Marty goes back in time or if from Doc Brown's perspective he has already met Marty in 1955. I suspect it's the former. Since this meeting was never re…More
ENGLISH Over the years, I have seen different movies and series of different genres, but, when we talk about good movies, at least we think of a classic, many claim that the classics of the 70s, 80s and 90s are gems that we should not leave behind. lose for nothing in the world, this week's contest is a little related to this topic, and I am proud to participate with one of the most popular films of all time. Back t…More
Image Actor Eric Stoltz initially played Marty McFly during the filming of "Back to the Future" because Michael J. Fox was unavailable at the time. Stoltz always considered himself a method actor, which is why he asked to be addressed as Marty throughout filming. In fact, he would not respond if called by his real name. Much has been rumored about Stoltz's personality on that shoot. It has been said, for exam…More
Source Hello friends, welcome to my blog, for me the decade of the 80's is one of the most relevant in all times for the changes and innovations in cultural, musical and film. It was born one of the best franchises of cinema and thanks to its creators, do not raise in the present or future remakes, which pleases me because there are masterpieces that should not be touched and represent a universal icon, this is the…More

Good Morning friends; today, the topic is about favourite movie props. I guess I was reading this also as 'iconic'. In truth, there are 100s which could easily come to mind. Some ruby slippers? An umbrella that flies through the sky. A personified soccerball, or the one I nearly took, the Riddler's cane! But, in the end, I couldn't help myself, and let the nostalgia guide my choice. It had to be Marty McFly's hoverb…More
One of the reasons why science fiction films are ignored and sometimes even despised by serious mainstream film makers and corresponding critics’ establishment is in many of them not taking the “science” part of “science fiction” seriously. This is most evident in time travel films, where the concept is often used as cheap gimmick without any consideration for its practical long-term implications, including Grandfat…More
It was indeed very difficult to choose a foreign cinema to write an article. There are so many movies that I watched, loved, and even got inspiration from. But I'm sure there will be a few all-time favorites for everyone. I thought of picking a movie that is an all-time favorite for me. It would be Back to The Future . I admired all three parts. I would even go ahead and say that this is the most unforgettable movie…More

After recommending several introductory sci-fi films, the writer got the idea to write this series.

Back when I was a teenager, the Back to the Future franchise became a synonym ofthe 80s, one of the most iconic films of our era. I remember going out with my friends and my older sister to watch all these movies on the cinema, and being ecstatic when they ended up in a cliffhanger. Back to the Future was and still is an amazing experience, everyone went to watch it, it was just something you HAD to do! I'm glad I w…More
Back to the Future is a well-made, thoughtful, funny film, made back in 1985 and starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. It is a movie that I really like a lot but also one that I can't watch over and over like I hear other people can. I can't quite put my finger on it either. There is nothing wrong with it, in fact, it's a great flick. I just have difficulty watching it over and over. Back to the Future is a…More
If you are not familiar with the phenomenon of New Coke, I suggest take a couple minutes to learn about one of the most interesting marketing events of all time: TLDR: Coca Cola introduced a new formula in the summer of 1985 of its classic soda and it lasted 77 days. There was major backlash and this led to the re introduction of classic coke and a surge in sales. Things were a lot different in 1985. A LOT different…More
This is a classic, must see, etc. etc. Zemeckis has such a tightly constructed story here. Every moment is packed with one, two, three story points, plants, character points, tone, motif. And at the same time, all that aside, it’s just fun to watch. So much energy and humor and vibe all strung perfectly across a core foundation, a screenwriting structure and story pace that hits so sharp. What is the story? Marty go…More
There is one thing that has always bothered me about Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) in the Back to the Future movies: Why is Doc Brown so adamant about future knowledge being dangerous yet the hoverboard is allowed to stay? Think about it. Doc Brown throws away a copy of the Grays Sports Almanac: Complete Sports Statistics 1950-2000 which has future scores but the hoverboard has technology that can be back-engineered…More
I would be sincerely surprised if there is anyone out there over the age of 30 that hasn't already seen this film. Even if you are under 30 I would still find it a little hard to believe. I have seen this movie hundreds of times, can quote the characters at really any point in the film but I still enjoy watching it every time. Why is that? Reasons I still love the film: - Fond memories: every single time i was sick…More
This post contains spoilers. This is not a review but more like an analysis. I assume you’ve seen the movie (probably many times). This is just my interpretation. I will write 3 blog posts covering all three films in the series. I mainly want to focus on nostalgia and the change in population centers over time. The first film shows thriving urban centers in 1955, with urban decay and suburban white flight in 1985. T…More
