I mean, I'm pretty sure "The 6th Day" had a bigger impact on the cultural landscape. I fully expect theaters around this great country to be holding screenings. Damn straight. Now where can I buy some XFL tickets? |

Hover technology would probably be too dangerous. Someone would get shitfaced and fall out of their car, at 30,000 feet. If 2015 sees the development of instant hydrated pizza, I'd be cool with just that. seriously people have enough trouble figuring out driving as it is can you imagine if they have to worry about altitude? Yeesh. The only same thing to do is only allow me to have a hover car  |

Plus, it won't help the others for that alternate 2015: We saw in the "original" BttF timeline: George didn't punch Biff. He was taking orders from Biff even in the current timeline, Biff was a big deal (and we know nothing of his family). Marty goes back to 1955: Biff was a BMOC, and he and some of his goons were in varsity jackets (giving credence- Biff had athletic ability.) George punches Biff, we get an alternate 1985, Biff is subservient to George (no knowledge of his family as well.) 30 years later, Marty goes to 2015, where Biff is unknown for his own status- but with a time machine, his first idea is "make money by betting on sporting events". He takes the sports almanac, goes to 1955, and changes history and obliterates that 2015, with no knowledge of the end...but his life in those 30 years is unknown, with the only clue: He views sports as his way to make money and had athletic ability, which was deferred. Conclusion: In the Back to the Future world, Biff Tannen's destiny was to be the father of the Chicago Cubs player who led them to win the 2015 World Series. Because Biff stole the sports almanac, that 2015 never happened, but Biff had his own glory instead and didn't care. ...so, sorry Cubs fans, you're not winning next year either. Blame Biff Tannen for this one. ...Great Scott. I know. This is heavy. |

Meh, it was an alternative 2015 created when George punched Biff. Plus, it won't help the others for that alternate 2015: We saw in the "original" BttF timeline: George didn't punch Biff. He was taking orders from Biff even in the current timeline, Biff was a big deal (and we know nothing of his family).

Blame Biff Tannen for this one. Don't forget another alternative 2015 in which Marty didn't take part in the drag race challenge, got into an accident that set his life on a downward spiral, and no longer lets being called a chicken get to him. |

Blame Biff Tannen for this one. In our timeline, his son goes by the nickname Jack Swagger. |

This'll be a terrible year for Back To The Future memes.... every single day there will be "This is the date Marty McFly traveled to in the future!" memes. However, there's a good chance we won't see them again after this year. That said... this year, I'm putting money on the Cubbies. I won't. With the Cubs, I take a "I'll believe it when I see it" policy. |

I thought it would be funny if Biff was Griff's material grandfather. So that means he had a daughter, who if we ever saw her would be played by Thomas F. Wilson in drag. That would be hilarious. Heck Biff's unseen grandmother was voiced by Thomas F. Wilson.

Well in 1999, Prince's "1999" didn't get that much air play so who knows? Absolutely wrong. It got played all over, re-released, re-recorded, etc. Where were you? Hopped up on Surge at the bottom of a pile of Jnco jorts watching "Dharma and Greg?" |

Hopped up on Surge at the bottom of a pile of Jnco jorts watching "Dharma and Greg?" Well that is what I get from listening to Chris Rock. Anyway a plot hole I noticed, they made a big deal of how you can't see your future or past self, yet when old Biff went back to 1955 and gave his younger self the Sport Almanac there was no problem there. |

However, there's a good chance we won't see them again after this year. That said... this year, I'm putting money on the Cubbies. After this year it will be the opposite "This is the date Marty McFly" went into the past" or "This is the day when Marty McFly went a possible theoretical alternate future that is now the past" |
