Everything Wrong With Back to the Future 2

Tomorrow: Horror sins.

Remember, no movie is without sin. Which movie's sins do YOU want to see recounted?

Its funny that at some point there are 4 time machines in 1955, The one where marty arrived in in the first movie, the one marty and doc came in to get the almanac, the one that old biff came in to bring himself the almanac, and the one sitting in the mine for 70 years.

It's weird to think the future in BTTF 2 is now the past.

[JackFoxtrotEDM]

In case you’re wondering, there’s a theory that Doc has seen Marty die in the trilogy’s story, and multiple times too. That’s why he shows up when Marty needs him. He’s seen Marty die and time travels to that point in time himself to save Marty. It would explain why he’s there when Marty jumps off the roof, and when Doc comes by to save Marty from asphyxiation in Part III. Or when Biff chased him in the tunnel.

One sin off I wish you didn't miss - the elation Marty felt after lightning took Doc back to 1885 and Marty reads the letter... "There's only one man who can help me now!" And the edit back to the original climax is almost exactly as exciting as the original climax was on it's own.

The most heartbreaking moment in the first one is Marty coming back, moments too late just to see his best friend die again, and just as he's about to yell, "No!" the previous version of himself who is still there does it first. That's one of the most specifically heart-wrenching moments in all of movies, that the only reason he doesn't say, "No!" first is because he already did it and he's remembering it as it happens directly in front of him. So getting the letter that Doc is alive makes my inner nine-year-old jump twice as high because the first movie kicked me in the stomach with Doc and Marty, only to mend it and the second movie gave me a great big hug because the gesture went the other way.

There. I said it. Back to the Future Part feels like a hug from someone I've lost, but part II feels like the way I wish the hug felt.

I like the sin removal for the hoverboard with no explanation.

[carealoo]

Biff did not become George's pushover, because of one punch.
The idea is that George now had the courage to stand up to Biff, and eventually, over time, Biff learned that he couldn't pick on George anymore.

I don't care if it's a year off, I'm going by the Cubs Win Sin Counter.

[joeo]

How about a sin for the inconsistent location of the high school: both the high school and Biff's house seem to be within walking distance of downtown. Yet, when Biff drives to the dance, he drives many miles thru the woods and thru the river-road tunnel to get to the high school.

[CinemaSins]

Guys. I have bad news. The Cubs lost to the Mets. The dream is over.

2:43 "I need to borrow your.... hoverboard?"

*Removes a sin, no questions asked*

[rvpstudioscanada]

I saw the *ENTIRE* movie in less than 14 minutes.

2015 cinemasins: "They still use faxes"?
2020, my work place: "We cannot send the order automatically. You have to fax it"

[Zelein]

6:23 - A sin is added on the normal movie sin counter, but removed from the Cubs sin counter? 57 to 35.
Then it changes back so they match the next sin.

You have taught me well to pay attention to details, CinemaSins

[erttheking]

Hey, their prediction about the Cubs was only off by a year. Do they get the 20 sins off?

[yourlocalmouthbreather]

I actually love how bttf 2 and bttf 3 recreate several scenes from bttf 1, it really helps to make sure the movies all have the same nice feeling, and I just love it. I love all the continuity, it just adds to it so much

[ZacBLive]

Definitely should have removed a sin for predicting flat screen TV.

[maddisonle-guier]

We’re almost into 2020 and still waiting for part III, cmon guys.

[strangebrew]

I like to think that Marty died at all those times doc magically appeared with the car. Doc just kept going back in time

[georgialyall]

there is NO WAY anyone could ever ruin any of the back to the future movies for me :)

[ClassicPessi]

6:22 The sin detraction soundeffect plays, but a sin gets added to the counter, while a sin gets detracted from the win counter, effectively diminishing the point of having either of them be visible.
