Back to the Future Day

Verbatim · October 21, 2015, 12:31:13 PM

Today, October 21, 2015, is the day Marty McFly went into the future, and saw a little bit of what it would be like.

We're supposed to have hoverboards, self-tying powershoes, and an eighteenth sequel to the movie Jaws.

didn't see a thread about this, and i love the back to the future movies, so yeah

They had such high hopes for us back then...

I saw it like once as a kid, and never seen it again. Not that I hated it, just never got around to it.

I remember when I was a kid I randomly came across the third one on television and I liked it so much I got my mum to be buy me the 2 prequels and I enjoyed those even more so than the third one. Good times.

We don't have hoverboards but there are twats with these

Well, they got one thing right.

We do partially have hoverboards. They're magnetic.

I'm shocked how many people on my campus use these to get around.

Wall-E was right.

Everybody's gonna be a fatass soon.

Michigan State Police troopers stopped a silver DeLorean today for driving 88 mph in a 55 mph zone. The two occupants, Dr. Emmett Brown and Marty McFly, were given a verbal warning to drive more safely on Michigan roads. Dr. Emmett Brown responded by saying, “Roads? Where we’re going, we don’t need roads.”

I'll just leave this here

Funny, I actually watched the trilogy only a couple of days ago, didn't even realise it was almost that day until well into the second movie haha

Luis · October 21, 2015, 02:44:56 PM

I made a thread yesterday, then i realized it wasnt the 21st

Jono · October 21, 2015, 02:52:47 PM

The Cubs won't win the World Series though. Its gonna take a miracle for them to win the next 4 games against the Mets.

I know they're getting around to making hoverboards work like in the movie. I want to ride on one like in Ratchet and Clank. The hoverboard races were fun in those games.

Stop copying my threads and jacking my style

Zonda · October 21, 2015, 09:08:23 PM

I saw a DMC-12 yesterday and didn't even think of the reference. I also remember like 2 or 3 years ago there was stuff going around saying that 2013 or '14 was the year from Back to the Future. I guess people just love a good bandwagon to jump on, hey.

That was the big joke, where people would say this year is Back to the Future Day but really isn't.
If you actually watched to movies, you'd know that every year they went to had a 5 at the end. Not a 2, 3 or 4.
