Part of the reason Marty is such a likable character is because any changes he made in the past were made purely for his own survival. The writers made a conscious choice to stray from other well-worn time travel tropes, and have Marty's motivations be as selfless as possible. Gale brought up how Marty's morality, and his unwillingness to alter the past in any way that could benefit himself (other than fixing the things he messed up in the first place), was important to the story and getting the audience to empathize with Marty.Īs Gale mentions, Marty didn't go into the past voluntarily. Gale and Zemeckis decided to change the ending, so Marty's family is the only thing that's altered by his trip to the past. Gale mentioned that the original ending of the film was disliked. Gale spoke about how many time travel movies are "cautionary tales." Their function is to show how interfering with the past to change the future is wrong. Pizza Film School show, Gale spoke about how Marty's involuntary trip to the past was necessary to the ending of the film.
Related: Back To The Future: How Old Doc Brown Is In Each Movie The ending was altered, and more focus was placed on Marty and his family, having them be the only thing that changes in the new version of 1985. The original ending of the movie had Marty return to a much more futuristic 1985, as 1955's version of Doc Brown got a glimpse of future technology via the items Marty had brought with him in the past.
While not only worrying about how to return back to his original timeline, Marty is also forced to make sure his parents, George (Crispin Glover) and Lorraine (Lea Thompson) end up getting together, as Marty's presence in 1955 caused them not to meet when they were originally supposed to. Marty ends up traveling from 1985 to 1955 in a complete freak accident. In a shift that was different than most time travel movies, Marty doesn't choose to travel back in time. Back to the Future is generally considered one of the greatest time travel films of all time, with its rules and ideas about time travel influencing pop culture for years to come (even getting a reference in Avengers: Endgame). Back to the Future, directed by Robert Zemeckis, tells the story of Marty McFly's accidental trip back in time via his friend Doc Brown's (Christopher Lloyd) modified DeLorean. Fox) general good morality controlled the ending of the film. So, yeah.Bob Gale, co-writer of Back to the Future, spoke about how Marty McFly's (Michael J. but all she does is sing her worries away with a bunch of people who know all her dance moves and don't mind she's a cold blooded killer with no remorse for her actions. Not to mention she looks 30 but is SUPPOSED to be a prepubescent little girl. So the girl closes her eyes and wishes to go home, which she does, house and all, fully stable with no condemned signs, not even a flooded toilet!.and everything's lost its damn color. Then she gets high as fuck in a field, but snow cures that, then she gets told by an old floating head to steal the witches property, so she does, by killing the witch, then takes her stolen property and accomplises to the crime to the old fart who admits he's a fake and fucks off in a hotair balloon. She meets a bunch of strangers and doesn't once remember her stranger danger rules. so the dopey girl starts tap dancing away wearing glass shoes. Then this other witch gives the girl slippers made out if ruby. Then this witch wants to kill the girl for dropping a house on her sister, like it had a steering wheel.
This chicks house gets picked up in a tornado, but it unbelievably stayed together in one piece! She saw a witch flying out her window (stoner alert) Then the house falls on some woman and kills her, so the locals do a song and dance in praise at her murder. I'm more concerned about another movie I saw.
