Fun fact: The reason the salesman made marty shoot with his left hand is that colt designed their original revolvers to be used by calvary, thus the dominant hand would be hilding reins or a sword.

[Sparkledash]

Fun Fact: in the german dub, instead of saying 7-11 (because 7-11 stores where not a thing here in the late 80s and early 90s) Marty instead says "Space Invaders"

[persona]

"I know something you don't. I am not left handed."

[jphizack]

In BttF2 the kids in the cafe 80's say "wild gunman" is "like a babies toy" "You mean you have to use your hands?! Thats like a babies toy..."

[Vulgarth]

A nice callback to part II with the "Wild Gunman" cabinet.

[stevegoldstein]

It’s required to be a marksman if you’re a cashier at 7-11 to hold off robberies.

[jeopardy]

I find the shooting gallery so fascinating. It looks exactly like the video game Hogan's Alley, which was the video game that Marty played in the Cafe 80s in Part II, but it was done in 1885 before there was computer technology or even electricity.

One thing I love about this... In the second film, he smokes Wild Gunman, and gets laughed at. The following film, he smokes a real life version of the same thing by using his dominant hand and the guy is stunned.

[CallyA]

Love the subtle little grin Michael J. Fox does at 1:07 before the guy pulls him back.

[angbandsbane]

I love how the booth operator was also in Blazing Saddles. ("Send word...main office...tell em you said 'ow'. Got it")

[wwld]

in the italian dub he says he learned that at disneyland lmao

[Arcturus]

That trigger discipline by the salesman is just horrific...

[CrazyU]

I think what ties this whole scene together is the implication that Marty _intentionally_ botched that first shot.

He clocked that booth as an 1885 Wild Gunman game the second he saw that, he just wanted to mess with the guy.

[spike-kmje]

The fact that Marty McFly can operate a Colt saa revolver.

[GothReaper]

Man, just imagine tennen to arrive sooner and wittness this. And then be asked:"So, you still want a showdon?"

[pbdye]

Back when 7-Elevens had arcade games where the ATMs are now.

[x-celsius]

Guess all that time playing Wild Gunman paid off lol 😂

[gnarlin]

Ever since I saw this movie in the theater I've loved that music during this scene. It's so good.

[sillyscarer]

1:07 "Hey. Just tell me one thing. Where'd you learn to shoot like that?"
1:12 "7-Eleven."

[sillyscarer]

1:04 "Where'd you learn to shoot like that?"
1:07 "Oh, off the TV. How about you? Where'd you learn to shoot like that?"
1:12 "Kansas. Whoo."
