Mattel should license the graphics to a snowboard and/or wakeboard company.

I'm just sayin...

Yeah, I want the Pit Bull board. Pink is a deal breaker whether Marty rode it or not.

Gliding is just as good hovering. Nevermind the irony in displaying it on a stand.
by Silv
$120 please.

Is it weird that i'm almost more excited about getting the box?
by TheMark
Probably.

Does it come with that ugly hat that Marty takes off of his son? I'll be sure to wear my jeans inside out when I'm standing on the overboard. www.nonipplesonthesuit.com

That's a really good idea. Why haven't they done that already? www.nonipplesonthesuit.com

I've never touched a snowboard and I'd probably* buy one with hoverboard graphics
by spacehog
That is indeed a pretty brilliant idea, royston. Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit that'd be ICE COLD** on the slopes. * haha, let's all pretend I could afford such a ludicrous luxury as a snowboard I don't know how to use, but seriously I'd want one **not only because it's usually cold out when you're using a snowboard but because it would be ''cool'' in the vernacular sense

That review could've been half as long and still been too long.

We really need an entire team at DARPA to work on this technology ASAP. If my future kids can't ride on a hoverboard in 2015, what the hell have we accomplished?

The only thing sadder than this piece of shit plastic is the asshole who would shell out $120 for it. Decidedly not cool.
-
In 2015, every room in your house has one!
-
I thought this site was full of geeks and I'm the first one to post this?
-
Nothing to do with the hoverboad whatsoever but I could not resist as it's a Back to the Future thread.

Damn. I gotta wait another three years to see an 80's nostalgia cafe.

I submitted in the contest. Lets see how witty I really am.
by kindofabigdeal
Sadly I am not very good. But if by luck I do happen to win I'll hang this on my wall.

as it's a working Hover Board!

If you did, you're a hero.

I'd like a scale model replica of Hill Valley with the wind up Delorean.
-
It's not this design, it was based on the design of one of the henchmen's hoverboards, but other then the addition of the wheels its spot on, I wonder if its worth anything, I can't even find one like I have on e-bay, which probably means its not worth a damn, oh well...
-

Why not have that design on a skateboard and blur out the wheels with vaseline on the eyes?

A friend convinced me, when the movie came out, that they were real
by tangcameo
He said someone in Japan had figured out how to defy gravity on low levels. I swear to you he had an amazing poker face and I bought it until he cracked up laughing.

You guys DO know that there's a photo of Enders Game posted over at EW?
by tangcameo
I thought I would see something like that, especially for EG, here first.
-
Yes, definitely, God-dammit George, swear!

Anyone see that the Scarface remake will be about a Mexican cartel???
by kindofabigdeal
AICN is slipping in the rumor/news business.
-

WTF is wrong with AICN this week? There's been lots of news, like the Ender's Game stuff Tangcameo's mentioned, but we get zip.
by AlienFanatic
Is the House of Harry falling apart? Did that crap he pulled on Kidd cause problems? Seriously, I don't normally complain that AICN is the last to post, but the last few days this site's been like the Death Valley of entertainment news.

If it doesn't work on water then it's not "movie accurate"

stupid mattel.

when I was a kid, another kid around the block claimed to own a hoverboard. my friends and I believed him for awhile, even though he always had excuses why he couldn't show it to us. We eventually wised up.
by Sean
...Then the group of us took him behind some bushes and eviscerated him. Well not that part. A hoverboard that doesn't hover...even in 2012. No fucking point. Wake me up when the technology is there.

WTF are you talking about? Those boards don't work on water.
by Kevin Van Natter
Griff and his buddies had to hook into that device.
-
He said that consumer groups wont let the kids have em for safety reasons. i was an angry 7yo when i saw that. Watching the same featurette now on the dvd, you can see when bob zemeckis is saying they are real, he cant keep a straight face. that bastard! way to get a kids hopes up
-
...but it's still a TOY. It's plastic. It's not strong enough to stand on. It's just a bit...well, not a BIT, it's VERY expensive for what it is. So, MAN do I wish I could win one because I certainly would never drop that much cash on one.
-
Out of the box the stickers are peeling, there's bubbles and creases under it and there is scotch tape holding the 2 sections together....that's right....scotch tape! Dont even bother trying to win one. I'm going to be sending this waste of time and money right back.
