BACK TO THE FUTURE Is Coming Back To Theaters!! (But Only In The UK)!! Here's A Trailer For The Re-Release!!
Merrick here...

The first BACK TO THE FUTURE film is being re-released to UK theaters next month in conjunction with the picture's 25th anniversary, ahead of the whole trilogy's issuance on Blu-Ray. As far as we know, the film won't be re-appearing on big screens here in The States.
HeyGuys posted the trailer for BTTF's UK re-release, which is embedded below and originates HERE.
Trilogy co-writer and producer Bob Gale recently spoke to HeyGuys about how "breathtaking" he thought the impending Blu-Ray versions of this film looked (their article should hit in a few weeks). That trilogy set, releasing late October (right around the time the ALIEN films hit Blu!?) is preorderable HERE
. Wonder if the Blus will have any further material showing Eric Stoltz as Marty? Trippy...

That would be Taboo part one with Kay Parker.

Where Kay and her friend fucks her 18 year old nephew.
-
God I love this film. I've given a copy to any god-daughter, nephew etc aged 8 and above and they all totally adore it. It completely stands the test of time - in fact it's a load more exciting than most kids' films today, much as I love Harry Potter etc.

And kids will love where Marty fake daterapes his own mom....
by Jehovahs_Witness
....only Biff tries to rape her for real.
-
What a lousy trailer. Everything shown is either a funny face or someone falling down.
-
come in here!
-
Wait have you never seen it? Or have and just did not like it? I grew up on Ghostbusters too, but Back to the Future is fucking awesome!
-
i'm feeling your vibe..we are of an older and more enlightened generation..(i still have my Taboo copy in VHS)
-
Got to see this at the Dryden Theater at the Eastman House last month. It was great listening to the little kids there who weren't even born yet loving it.
-
I demand this be made available in US theaters. One of the greats, and only being released in one country. How fucking lame.
-
Hate on part 3? because I find it just as enjoyable as 1 and 2.

Well technically she wasn't his mom...
by HarryKnowlesNonExistentInceptionReview
...she had yet to marry and become a mother to any of her children. Since Marty went back in time and prevented the woman who would become his mother from developing an interest in the man who would become his father, he was, from that point onward, basically existing in a state of quantum superposition (neither existing or not existing) until he manages to change history back to a similar course in which he would again definitely exist. Besides, Lea Thompson was super-hot back in the 80's.
-
Fucking both those movies pwned the 80's, along with Raiders and ESB. I grew up on all those MFs.
-
It's a trilogy and they all rock.
-
I don't fucking care about Black Lightning and I care even less when the FUCKING ADVERT PLAYS AT FULL FUCKING VOILUME WITHOUT MY FUCKING PERMISSION AND WAKES UP MY FUCKING GIRLFRIEND WHO IS FUCKING ILL. AICN, FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING BAG OF CUNTS, THIS IS THE ONLY WEBSITE I VISIT THAT I CAN'T TRUST NOT TO PULL THIS SHIT. FUCK ALL YOU FAT CUNTY PIECES OF SHIT.

I bet this would do well, re-released in the United States.

BTTF is one of my all-time favorites and it's a fucking crime that a re-release for it's 25th anniversary can only be found on screens overseas. This is an American classic, dammit, why the fuck isn't it here in the good ol' USA?
-
though I still am loyal to your site, old news again. you guys totally need to trump comicbookmovie with a pic of the Red Skull. HURRY!
-
can't wait to have this trilogy on blu. My favorite series ever.
-
Surely that does the website in question more harm? Making your ads so fucking intrusive that users would rather block them altogether? Firefox has been shit for years now anyway. It's called "Best practice". AICN is not a backstreet cowboy-operation run from someone's basement so why does it still behave like one? "Respect? For our visitors? ARE YOU MAD?!"

I'm sure Lucas tried to convince him to fuck this flick up beyond repair.
-
The Ad has a an audio button in the middle of it which misleads you into clicking it thinking it will mute it, but it's actually a fucking PLAY button. And even if you don't click it, it just autoplays eventually. BAD PRACTICE! I'll stick with my original sentiment which was...Oh yeah...FUCK OFF!
-
There isn't one cross dressing guy or joke about the crusades or the dark ages in that movie anywhere. What the hell do they want it for? It needs to be released here in the US. The whole movie is all about American culture.
-
im an American and never heard of this "UK"
-
"Welcome to Adult Friend Finder.com" blaring out of your speakers uninvited at top volume? I used to freak out and had to click rapidly through all my open tabs to find the culprit, now I always know to go straight to AICN because no other respectable website on the planet does this shit.
-
someone will always get news first, do you people go on every site and bitch and moan that they werent first to get their news as well? my god....you do realize some people have lives right? they dont spend their days surfing the net and this is probably one of a few or in some cases possibly the only movie news website that they visit. so its not AICN's fault that you have no life and read every website. whats next, they're gonna write a letter to a local newspaper because some other paper published the same story 3 days before?
-
... to start campaigns in order to have the movie showing on their town. PIECE OF SHIT, FAT FUCK! PIECE OF SHIT!
-
at Christmastime. They loved it!
-
Why is only the University of Kansas getting this. As a alum of University of Michigan I find this biased and heinous. Umich will retaliate, mark my words.
-
For some reason I have gotten into the habit of watching this movie every November near Thanksgiving time. Enjoy the whole trilogy.
-
My brother and I grew up watching the BTTF films. Will be there opening day!! :D
-
Zemeckis mentioned in a commentary (Used Cars I think) that he doesn't believe in going back and tinkering with movies once they are released, that they exist in the time that they were made. Hopefully he'll stick to this belief and not ever release BTTF in 3D or with "new, improved" effects. It's amazing how the legacy of BTTF has remained intact thanks to this compared to how fractured the legacy of Star Wars is now with all the versions out there.
-
That's a fuckin awesome scene. "He's not MY nephew!"
-
Do you think a remake or alternate version of Back to the Future could/should be made in a couple of years to look at the differences between 2015 (the real 2015) and 1985? Does enough of a culture/tech gap exist to be able to tell the same story through the eyes of kids of today, just moved 30 years forward?
-
My all time favourite film and now I can finally see it on the big screen for the first time!
-
Fuck me, there are some ignorant people on these boards. <p> I get the impression recently that it's mainly 15-year-old hicks posting here now. Shame.
-
"I always regretted how small the Hill Valley town square looked on screen. It was meant to be so much bigger, with more detail in the background so that you got the feeling of a real city. So we've gone back in there and added some new elements to the background, really hightened the sense of being in a 1950's city."
-
Yes. It is fucking fantastic.
-
Saw this as a seventeen year old on release. Great movie - absolutely rock solid family entertainment.<p>No matter how many times you've seen it over the years, if your palms aren't sweating when Doc is up that clocktower, there's something wrong with you! Really looking forward to seein this with my family on a big digital print...
-
Bob Gale said in an interview that when they were planing the DVD release, they thought about putting the Eric Stoltz footage in the bonus features. He said they decided against it, because it wasn't fair to Eric because he didn't do anything wrong, he just wasn't right for Marty. Bob and Bob just just ask Eric if he wants the footage included in the Blu ray discs. If he's cool with it, they should let it see the light of day. People want to see this footage.

The UK is England? Lol, a bunch of homos enjoying Americana!!
by Nabster
What will a group of ppl who have bad teeth and an inferiority complex, know about a classic American film like Back to the Future. It should be playing in the US, not shitty England.
-
The movies could've literally gone anywhere. Now, I am a fan of part 2. I think from a storytelling perspective, having Marty be in 1955 with the Marty from the first movie, is awesome. It would've been cool if they weren't painted into a corner though cause who knows what could've happened.
-
What would we know about a classic American film like BTTF? Plenty, seeing as how many of us grew up watching the BTTF films. Many of us also have very nice teeth. So the real question here is what would YOU know about England? Very little it seems, including the fact that it's part of the UK. Cunt.
-
"Hey , best it spook , this don't concern you."? They did last time it was on telly. Why not leave it in and remind everyone how bad racism was back in 1955?
-
its being re-released without any new scenes or CG enhancements? why the hell would i want to waste time bitching about this. they need to add some shit to it so i can bitch about it not being the pure original
-
can't wait.
-
I guess they don't just watch Dr. Who all day?

No, you clueless big-chinned twat.

-
It does seem like the 50's and the 80's were farther apart than the 80's and today, and I don't just mean by that extra 5 years. Hell, the 70's and the 00's seem further apart. The 80's cast a huge shadow on the decades that have followed... I don't think we've hit a big enough cultural shift since then.

-
First movie I ever saw more than once at the cinema. I'm surprised they are doing this in the UK and not the US or both. I love this film.
-
BTTF is my favorite movie of all time. It was made here in the States, and should be shown in the States for it's 25th anniversary. Especially if it came out the same time as in the UK, since my birthday is in October.
-
I agree that the culture gap isn't as large today. I think a kid from today dropped into 1980 wouldn't stick out as much as Marty did in 1955. The tech gap, though, is just as big. I think our cell phones and ipods would be just as fantastical to someone in 1980 as Marty's camcorder and Walkman were to someone in 1955. And imagine a teenager from this year stuck in 1980 and freaking out because he CAN'T GET ON THE INTERNET!!!!

It was made in California. I'll explain. Ask any travelling Californian where they are from and they will say 'California'. Ask any other American and they will say 'America' (or Ireland 'cos their great grandfather was Irish). But they'll all be wearing Canadian patches on their backpacks, just to further confuse you. To rescue BTTF from all this confusion, I hereby claim the bragging rights for the UK. To celebrate, I will be releasing a digitally remastered version of the original BTTF at selected UK cinemas this October.
-
..."15-year-old hicks posting here" Heh.
-
... nobody in the U.S. knows anything about this. And maybe the site is hoping to get some excitement going with the U.S. fans to spur a U.S. release.

Now, the web wasn't created until '89, but you could get on BBS's and NSFNET in the late 80's.

It is not sarcasm. It is, at best, pseudo-comedic faux naiveté.

Yeah, I'm talkin to you, Universal. <P>Deliver that shit to my local AMC, or fuck off. And I'm talkin full trilogy.
-
You would have scored higher marks with "blithering nincompoop".
-
However you choose to describe them, those posts professing not to know what "The UK" is were meant as jokes, and you replied as if they were in earnest. Nincompoop...
-
Yeah, it's like I was totally a Taxi Driver fan, so who could be bothered to see Deerhunter!? See two movies in the same DECADE? Who has time for that shit?
-
In each case, the only person who could know would be...*the author of the post*. (Eyes widen in realization.)
-
It's a digital presentation so it's not like the expenses would be that big. I'd wager dollars to donuts they could rake in $50-$75 million easy with a 3 week limited engagement.
-
Didn't they shoot like 60% of the movie with him? Even if we only got a couple minutes of footage it would still be really interesting. Maybe just work it into one of the new documentaries.
-
unless they set it in the 80's. Someone in 1955 seeing a DeLorean would be freaked out but would the same happen to someone in the 80's seeing a car from today? I highly doubt it. <br><br> I think today's technology would certainly impress people of the 80s but that's about it. I mean they had mobile phones, video games, computers, rock,rap and heavy metal music - oh and compact discs. The fact films today come on disc format probably wont impress them too much either - laser disc even existed back then. <br><br> Granted, it's all a lot more basic than what we have today but they still existed back then. <br><br> What would we have that would be the equivalent of a DeLorean, video camera, heavy metal music, skateboarding and plutonium that would be as shocking to someone in the 80s as those things are to someone in the 50s?

THIS IS MY FAVORITE TRILOGY!!!FACT!!! JUST WATCHED THEM YESTERDA
by CreationistTechnophobicManiacs
The first is, without a doubt, an all time classic. Part 2 and 3 aren't as masterful but I still really love them. What I love was all of the time hopping and multiple reality craziness of Part 2, something that a lot of people didn't seem to understand although it was always perefctly clear to me. Part 3 was just pure fun and I loved that they made it an old west flick. That just shook it up in a way that most trilogy's fail to do so.<br> <br>Anyway, I LOVE BTTF, always will and would KILL to see this on the big screen as I never got a chance to see the original in 85.

It would have BLOWN MY FREAKIN' MIND. But other than that, yeah things havn't changed all that much.

for transparent aluminum using that cheap 1980s Mac computer?
-
Most of the technological changes of the last fifteen years have been the building of new virtual data systems. The external world hasn't changed all that much. Cars, planes and buildings aren't greatly different. And fashions seem to have been recycled and remixed more than anything else. <p> One small thing that IS noticeable is that women's hair looks much better. It can be styled and colored without leaving it looking dead and dry. Watch 80s movies like Working Girl and Wall St now, and all the women's hair looks terrible, and this after being attended to by Hollywood stylists.

I'm not one for complaining about a site not getting the news first, but when I saw the headline on the front page, I agreed. I saw this a while back, right after they announced the blu-ray set. I even posted it on my facebook page on August 22. That's over 2 1/2 weeks ago! It's sad when I can scoop aicn by 2 1/2 weeks. As for the Stoltz footage, it is supposed to be included in one of the features, not a standalone. Not sure if all of the footage is going to be included, but there is supposed to be some.
-
you don't actually want to block ads and you think Firefox is crap? NOOB!<P> RPLocke, what's wrong with watching Doctor Who?

So put that in your crack pipe and smoke it...bitch. :)

by CreationistTechnophobicManiacs
I'm not talking about the old version of the show with that old pedo Jon Pertwee or that ugly motherfucker Tom Baker. I'd avoid that shit like cancer wrapped in AIDS. But you should give the Christopher Eccleston/David Tennant era a shot because that was some fucking great TV. Seriously, man, it's like classic Star Trek mixed with Back to the Future with a touch of Empire Strikes Back at it's best. The one episode you MUST see before you die is called Blink and it's from series three of Nu-Who with Tennant. It's a fucking MASTERPIECE.

by CreationistTechnophobicManiacs
I never gave a shit about Doctor Who until two years ago when I first saw Blink and, IMHO, it was the PERFECT episode for some who doesn’t like Doctor Who to watch. The Doctor is a peripheral character in the episode and follows Carey Mulligan around while she tries to solve a mystery. If you love Back to the Future as much as I do, you owe it to yourself to watch that fucking episode ASFUCKINGAP!!! I would not lie to you about this.

Does anyone remember this scene from the original run?
by Crimson Dynamo
The original run back in the 80's had a scene I haven't seen since in any addition. It was the scene where Marty was trapped in the trunk of the car, and Biff's friends are like "We don't want to mess with a bunch of reefer heads." When they finally get Marty out of the trunk, he is about to run off, but he stops, takes a hit of one of the band member's joints, then runs off. I remember this because it got a huge laugh from the audience. Does anyone else remember seeing that scene?

Eric Stoltz footage HAS been confirmed for new Blu-ray & DVD
by Anime_Nut
http://bit.ly/dgYcQv<p> This was reported way back in June. Bob Gale himself told BTTF.net, "And since everyone wants to know, there are three very brief snippets of Eric Stoltz incorporated into one of the documentaries.”<p> What we still don't know is WHICH scenes we'll see. I think Twin Pines Mall parking lot is virtually guaranteed. I also hope to see any of his scenes with Crispin Glover, just to see how they played off each other.
-
a complete utter shit bag degenerate. That said. Back to the Future all the way! This is really cool.
-
Hadn't seen it in at least 10 years. It held up alot better than I thought it would. The future cars actually look believable still. Moreso than I think they did at the time... now it just looks "accurate" instead of far-futurey. <BR><BR> interesting. I still think 3 would have been far better without the love interest teacher chick though
-
If you guys had flashblocker installed, you would have alot less stressful browsing experience.
-
When Marty is interacting with scenes from the first movie, it's obvious he's green screened in a lot of the time.
-
as I watched it as a kid was the Arab terrorists being in America and actually trying to kill us in our own country (as they tried to shoot Doc and Marty in the mall parking lot). Sure, yeah, like a damn Arab terrorist would really...oh, wait.
-
...you don't deserve to call yourself a movie fan.
-
In (I believe) 3001, ACC said that someone from an advanced technological age wouldn't freak out if dropped into a more advanced age because advances in technology would be expected. If you took someone from say, 1000 BC and dropped them into our modern age, they'd be likely to freak out because they have absolutely no frame of reference. They'd have a heart attack when they hear voices coming out of a box. It would be like sorcery to them.<P> As far as BTTF goes, the 50s were essentially before the electronic age. People really didn't know anything about computers, even science in the atomic age was still in its infancy. There's enough of a technological leap for someone from 1985 to seem sufficiently sophisticated.<P> That being said, I think about half of what made BTTF so popular was that kids and adults alike could identify with it. It was discovery to kids and nostalgia for adults. Doesn't anyone remember asking their parents if that was what the 50s were like? In this way, a modern BTTF featuring a 2015 time-traveler going back to 1985 could be just as compelling. Why not have a Part 2 trilogy where Marty's kid goes back to 1985 after he finds one of Doc Brown's time machines somewhere? The second film described divergent timelines, and we never saw the "repaired" 2015. Who's to say what it would be like?
-
That's because compositing was done OPTICALLY. No 'puters in FX back in 1987.

About 4/5 months ago i had to smile politely and miss a screening of Empire, Alien, Star Trek 4 and The Dark Night, attended by all directors and/or stars, even "HARRISON FORD" ,because i'm situated roughly 6000 miles away from where it was happening. I missed that movie roadshow thing that Harry yacked on about for months, y'know, Close Encounters screened at Devil's Tower etc ,etc and inumerable other showings of classic movies that i read about on this site being shown regularly in the US. Despite feeling a sense of crushing dissapointment every time this happens, i've always, because this is an American website, tried to adopt the attitude of "oh well, good for you", then i read what cunts like Nabster write and think "pearls before swine", "pearls before swine" .

My favorite movies are BTTF, Bill and Ted, and Frequency. Favorite books (that really should be movies) include 'The Time Machine Did It', 'Time Craft', and 'Outlander'. Anybody here got any recommendations for me to add to my list??

I think they shot the second one in 1988. It came out the winter of 1989, and they did indeed use computer controlled cameras in Part II. The dinner scene where Michael J Fox is having dinner with three versions of himself was shot with computer controlled cameras.
-
Obviously "All You Zombies". Also "The Door Into Summer" and "October the First is Too Late".
-
The genesis of many modern-day computer effects shots was software created for a film in 1986. The first movie that most people saw that made them very aware of CG effects was Terminator 2, but if you follow the path back, you go through (fairly obviously) The Abyss in 1989, and (less obviously) Star Trek IV in 1986. Specifically, if you watch the time travel sequence, you will see statue-like likenesses of the crew members morphing into one another. Although Tron and The Last Starfighter had pioneered computer-based effects earlier, Star Trek IV is an unsung turning point where the tech started to be used to represent human likenesses.

Which is all the opening fellow film geeks need around here to tell me how wrong I am. Thanks!
-
exactly what I expect from xenophobic, overweight morons.
-
Thanks! Are those movies or books... or both? I'll have to check them out.
-
Where they go back to the 80's would end up like 'Hot Tub Time Machine'. </br>"Whats e-mail??" "Texting, whaaa?" <p> It would probably be mo-capped aswell.
-
probably WOULD freak out.<br /><p><br />Talkbackers who remember the 80's have no idea how fucking insane that period seems to kids. Talk to a few. Listen to them. The idea of a mixed tape is like the fucking dinosaurs.
-
Movie suggestions: "Time Rider" and "The Jacket". Book suggestion: "To Say Nothing of the Dog". I like all your choices, haven't heard of Time Craft, so I'll have to check that one out.

If this does not become the #1 TB then you guys suck.

This has to be re-released here. Epic fail if it isn't.
-
I agree, the kid would freak out. But, take the average high school kid from today, drop him in 1985, and no one else would notice a thing, unlike the looks Marty got for his 'life preserver' and hairstyle. A kid from today might be wearing a shirt for a band that wasn't around yet, but most would just think it's some obscure band they haven't heard of.
-
I always thought that dream sequence was rather bizarre... makes a little more sense when you realize the whole thing was just the FX guys seeing what they could do.
-
I literally am leaving this site now for a while to surf elsewhere where they don't cover half my page in un-removable adverts, when I click the close box it links me.
-
The best Time travel movie I have ever seen is 12 Monkeys.

@Taopilot - I think the adults might not notice anything...
by V'Shael
But kids? Where are future kids leg warmers? Where are his head-bopp things? Why aren't his sleeves rolled up to his elbows? Why hasn't he got "80's" hair, which took 3 cans of hair spray?<br /><br />I think kids his own age would look at him weirdly, for sure.

No film has ever done time travel better, not even Primer.

Actually I was using Firefox in early 2005. Before, like, pretty much anyone. The reason I don't anymore is because it's been shite for the last few years. It shuts itself down, then when you try and start it again it says "Firefox is already running" when it clearly isn't. This has happened on my last two PCs and is a well-documented bug with later versions. And I don't mind seeing the ads, I might actually be interested. I just don't need my fucking eyes, ears or entire cortex raped by them. The user shouldn't have to block entire sections of a website just because whoever runs the website does not understand best practice - that is, the user chooses whether they want to view / hear the ad or not. If everyone blocks the ads, many content websites would go out of business.
-
I have Firefox and have also used it for many years. Yes it does crash from time to time. It's still the best browser. Maybe your PC or OS is the problem. Why anyone would voluntarily subject themselves to ads when they know how to get rid of them and then complains about it, I cannot fathom. If that upsets you, then just think yourself lucky that you have nothing worse to whine about like a big girl.
-
WRT Firefox (which is still my preferred browser) I also have had the crashing (although not so much with more recent versions) and notice that it's already running. I had to open the task manager and close the running file there.

The Universal UK office experimented with doing new digital releases in conjunction with their home ent department last year. They showed The Blues Brothers, American Werewolf In London, Spartacus, The Thing and a couple of others in new digital prints just for single days at certain cinemas. This fuelled the idea to do more and the first one was obvious: 25 anniverdary re-release of BTTF. That's why they are doing it in the UK. The studio was sceptical that anyone would pay to see old movies in the cinema to warrant the costs of the digital drives but the UK office proved they could make it cost effective. The studio brass just think we all want to watch the dross they turn out these days. Thankfully for British audiences there are enough fans of old movies working in the sales department at Universal UK that they fought for the chance to prove they could do it and they got it done. Don't imagine this is coming from high up!

So if we all go out and make BTTF No.1 at the Box Office
by THAT__SAID
Maybe you guys across the pond will get it too?
-
...are The Terminator, Twelve Monkeys and La Jetee. (12M is of course a big budget revamp of La Jetee.) <p> I also think the bootstrapping sequence at the police station in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure is absolutely fucking great.

"Actually I was using Firefox in early 2005. Before, like, pretty much anyone." <p> Mozilla created Firefox mainly by reverse-engineering Opera, which has had tabbed browsing, built-in pop-up killing etc. since around 2000. So Firefox users are Johnny-Come-Latelys to the "proper browser" party. Opera has been the true innovator for most major features imo. It isn't designed to be as extensible as Firefox, but it runs better straight out of the box and isn't the flabby mess that Firefox has become.
-
What's happened to Firefox? For the past three years it's been worse than IE. There's just no decent browsers out there anymore.
-
"The Last Star Fighter"? 1983?
-
"Enemy Mine" 1985?
-
"Bad Boys 2" 2003?
-
"Forrest Gump" 1994?
-
But I'm pretty sure I'm winning.
