Hi guys

Anyone who has watched the back to the future movies would know what today is(myself included Smile )

It's back to the future day when Marty and doc when ahead in time to this date in the second movie


We don't have flying cars yet but most of the stuff from the movies has came true

If you can remember what those was I will let you post it

Ps yes I do know what they and have used one lately(Eg video call)[/u]

If I can't have a flying DeLorean (that runs on banana peels) then I at least want a hoverboard...

Gary you can get a deloren decked out like the one in the movie(I have seen them done looks great) I want one myself but the cost is nuts

Ar killer screenshot of the date and time(wish I had known of that site before)

One thing I have used lately that was in the movie is video calling

I would love to have a hover board for sure


I have all three movies on both vhs and blu ray prefer to watch the first two then the third one

^ I have seen those they are wicked cool but still not close to the one in the movie

To the flying car there is one already just not like in the movie

Now if they could deck out a dmc-12 with it I would be happy Smile

Wow, I haven't even thought of this day in ages. I remember when the third movie came out. My best friend got preview tickets for a special back to back to back showing of the films. I believe I still have the t-shirt somewhere.

^I saw one firsthand today while out and about. Super cool looking, but I know I wouldn't use it more than a week before I'd put it in the closet.

As much as I would love to build one of those myself I doubt you could pay me to get on the damned thing

I have quad copters and when they crash it's normally never pretty(I speak from exprence)

What I would be afraid of is it having a motor or esc fail(yes that can happen) and kiss your hinny good bye if your high up

I would want a parachute before I were to attempt it IF I did atempt it

Man I can't thank you enough

I
Missed about the first 7 minutes of that when it was on(had I known I would have recorded it)

I am hating my heactic work schedule and how it has been lately

All I have to say about doc is great Scott he is showing his age(I know he had to in the movies but wow)


I see Michel j fox is doing better in the video then he did in some of the tv shows I seen him on(interviews about the movie)


Doc is right though it's nothing like the movie's 2015 with the sweet hover cars but car safety is pretty darn close(yep I noticed)


Was I the only one would was laughing like a madman watching jimmy's show(Huey Louis made me laugh when he did the same but in the movie)

I talked to my best friend yesterday. He dressed up as Marty and went over to The Plaza hotel in Vegas. The Plaza was Biff's place in II. Apparently he wasn't the only one thinking this. There were several Deloreans and a bunch of people dressed up.
