Shit Yeah You're right! See, they never explained that in the film and it's bugged me for years. I hate to say it but that is spot on!

Bollox. All these years I've been saying how fucked up that film was, and all along I was wrong. And I'm never wrong Shit!

Anyway, that makes the trilogy much better now. But how did he make that time train...explain that then man

Right...The biggest fuck up in BTTF 3 is..

And bare with me here...It's a lot to explain.

Ok...Doc got shot back to 1885 in his car. Marty then dug up the car in 1955, and went back to get Doc. Marty's car gets an arrow in the petrol tank and lose all the fuel!
Ok so far.
Doc and Marty try and fix Marty's car....But wait...Why don't they just use the feul from the Car Doc went back in time in.
Before you all flame me down think about it. In BTTF 2 we saw 2 time machines. The one they used to get back and try and fix the time line, and the car from the first film, in the scene where we see the 2 Docs, Remember?
So according to the BTTF law, there can be 2 time machines at the same time. So why doesn't this apply to the third film.
Doc went to 1885 in his car. Marty used the same car and went to 1885...so in 1885 there should be 2 cars.
The car that Doc got shot back in time in must still have had enough fuel for them to reach 88mph, but there was no mention of it whatsoever.


Also...The Lorraine thing. In 1885 we see a relative of Marty, Shamus..He's married to whatever her name is, who is played by Lea Thompson-who played Marty's Mum.
So in 1885 Marty's relative Shamus and some bird related in some way to Marty's mum hooked up, had kids and so on...But Hang on...That's just wrong. So it must mean Marty and his family from 1985 are in-bred somehow!
See... Fuck up!!!

Well you sort of get my point...Yeah??

There you go. Big fucking plot hole and IMO one big mistake that totally ruined a great set of films.

I tried my best to explain this, but it helps if you're stoned sitting here with me


BTTF 1 is one of my fave films BTW.

Who says they haven't.
Thing is... you can't go back and start messing with things...The butterfly effect...one small change here, could be the biggest fuck up in years to come...you might stop yourself from being born or something...which if so, you wouldn't be around to time travel in the first place.....so you wouldn't of come back in time to fuck things up...so then you would have been born...so you would of come back in time......

Man, I'm so confused!!

Coz you guys are all British, you should check out all the latest film mags if you already haven't.
'Empire' mag has a very good special on SW, along with a very cool, but annoying, Vader breathing thing.
Aslo 'SFX' has a special SW collecteors edition magazine (which is superb), with free sticker album and stickers. (whoooo).

what an excellent nostalgia trip that was!!!!

the voice of the Dalek sounded exactly as i remembered it! it might even have been the same person, i'm not sure!

if any of you get the chance to watch it at some point look out for the excellent cameo near the beginning of the episode!

pure BBC genius!





What cameo was that then?? Did i miss something good??

How Many Times Have You Seen The Original Trilogy?

God knows.....I've owned the VHS copies since 82 ANH - 84 ESB - 86 ROTJ, so I must have watched them a few hundred times each.
Watched ESB on Saturday night round my mates after his party, and his girlfriend found it quite amusing that i knew it word for word. Even in my state..which was fucked, I still knew it all.
That film is the best after a few solid hours of drinking and then a couple of joints...makes you appreciate it even more

Even bought a Luke Skywalker Force FX lightsabre....Found out some guy I knew had two of them, went round his house and nearly come in my pants there and then. They are fucking amazing!!!!


Yeah, a few hundred times!!
