The issue of Fantastic Story Magazine that we see next to a sleeping George in the following scene, meanwhile, is also genuine: it’s the Fall 1954 issue. 24. Darth Vader, from the planet Vulcan De Santis, Solange. "Steven Spielberg Builds a Time Machine" in Popular Mechanics, August 1985, pp.84–87, 132. The short film Doc Brown Saves the World features a repaired DeLorean time machine that includes new replacement parts from 2015. It is seen in a video promoting the film, though it is not specified whether it houses a flux capacitor. [ non-primary source needed] Time Train [ edit ]

There are two in-jokes here. Firstly is the fact that the Chicago Cubs had last won a World Series in 1907 (and finally broke their drought in 2016); and secondly, they’re supposed to have defeated a team from Miami, but there wasn’t one of those in 1989. Although the films do not describe exactly how the flux capacitor works, Doc mentions at one point that the stainless steel body of the DeLorean has a direct and influential effect on the "flux dispersal", but he is interrupted before he can finish the explanation. [3] The explanation is finished in BTTF's "Delorean Time Machine; Doc Brown's Owners' Workshop Manual", which says "However, the stainless-steel construction of the DeLorean would serve to make the Flux Dispersal uniform across the entire surface area of the vehicle."

While the original PRV V6 engines were retained in the physical cars for filming, the film's sound effects artists used the sound of a Porsche 928 V8 and the Star Wars's landspeeder for the engine sounds in the movie. [45] Replicas [ edit ] Two DeLorean time machine replicas This reversal of the Doc and Marty’s recurring catchphrases (a lovely, subtle reference to the effect their friendship has had on one-another) has to be one of the best jokes in the entire trilogy. 83. “I’ve been peddling this barbed wire all across the country…” Holleran, Scott (November 18, 2003).

Note: The above listing refers only to vehicles driven by the main characters in the movies and/or members of their families. It’s a small detail, but a nice touch, that rather than buying a new hat after having it shot off his head by Buford (thanks to Marty’s Frisbee-based intervention), he just continues to wear it, bullet hole and all. 82. “Great Scott!” “I know, this is heavy!”Kaku, Michio.

ISBN 0-415-25973-8 This may well be the most obscure reference of the lot – but the barbed wire salesman who counsels the Doc on his broken heart isn’t just a random character. Although not named as such, he bears a clear visual resemblance to Joseph Glidden, the businessman who really did patent barbed wire in the 1870s and became one of the richest men in America as a result. 84. Punch-out It’s been remarked upon several times that it’s somewhat strange that Lea Thompson plays the role of Maggie McFly, given that her character Lorraine Baines is actually from the other side of Marty’s family. Bob Gale has explained this apparent discrepancy by the simple reasoning that they wanted the third film to have a “Mom, is that you?” scene, just as the first two had – and offers the possible justification that “the McFly men have a genetic trait that attracted them to women who bear a resemblance to Maggie or Lea Thompson.” If you’re wondering, incidentally, why George is pouring himself a bowl of Peanut Brittle and eating it like cereal: it’s a remnant of a deleted scene from just after Marty arrives home, in which George is coerced into buying a huge amount of the stuff from his neighbour’s daughter. Presumably intended to show how spineless he is, it’s also kind of redundant when you have the Biff scene immediately following, so while it’s amusing it’s not hard to see why it was cut. 14.
