Back to the Future Part II	comment	All spoilers for Back to the Future are unmarked. You Have Been Warned.Back to the Future Part II is a 1989 film directed by Robert Zemeckis, starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. It is the second part of the Back to the Future trilogy.Picking up from the first movie, Doc Brown takes Marty and his girlfriend Jennifer to 2015 in an attempt to save his identical son from trouble. While successful in their plan, a series of complications involving a sports almanac from the future leads to the elderly Biff Tannen stealing their DeLorean and making his young self rich, altering the present (i.e., 1985) into a dystopia where he is an all-powerful billionaire. Now Marty and Doc have to return to the 1955 school dance from the first movie and Set Right What Once Went Wrong, whilst remaining unseen lest he cause a Time Paradox. But fixing the time-stream and getting home won't be easy...The film was shot back-to-back with its sequel, Back to the Future Part III, which was released the following year.

Back to the Future Part II / int_1078bba8	comment	"Mister Sandman" Sequence: Like in the first movie, "Mr Sandman" is played when Marty tails young Biff to retrieve the Gray's Sports Almanac, though it's shorter than Marty's first walk into 1955 Hill Valley and doesn't have the same emphasis on 1950s culture.

As Marty and Doc Brown rush to get Jennifer out of her and Marty's future home before she sees her future self, old-Biff "borrows" the Delorean-time machine. When the trio gets back to 1985, Hill Valley has been turned into a dystopia where the town is one large slum and Biff is a billionaire casino owner, as Doc Brown and Marty discovered that old-Biff went back to 1955 to give his teen-aged self the book so that he could be rich and powerful in the future.

Back to the Future Part II / int_1206d299	comment	Can't Kill You, Still Need You: A non-lethal variation after Doc and Marty head back to 1955. Marty's mission is to track down 1955 Biff, tail him, and wait until 2015 Biff inevitably shows up with the Almanac. Here, Doc gives Marty explicit instructions: do not interfere with that event. Old Biff must believe he's accomplished his own mission so that he'll leave 1955 and bring the DeLorean back to 2015. If he doesn't, then of course Marty and Doc will never leave 2015, discover 1985's been altered, and be able to head back to 1955 to try and set things right. Once he's gone, then grab the book at any cost.

By that same token, 1985-A Biff's looks were modeled on Donald Trump, which became a big talking point around the movie after he became president in 2016 and Bob Gale brought it up. Other things 1985-A Biff has and does also make this more obvious, like paintings he has of himself in his hotel and the fact that he's a billionaire business tycoon with his own hotel named after himself.

In the first film, Biff was a highschool bully, barring the rape scene. Part II takes his villainy up several notches to outright murder.

Back to the Future Part II / int_17ce80aa	type	All There in the Manual
Back to the Future Part II / int_17ce80aa	comment	All There in the Manual: When elderly 2015 Biff comes back from 1955, he's shown bending over in pain. The rest of the scene, which was edited out, has him disappearing. Word of God invokedsays that Lorraine shot and killed him in the mid 1990's. The reason our real life 2015 doesn't have Mr. Fusion, Self-Lacing Sneakers and Hoverboards, according to the 30th anniversary boxed set, is that the items would have brought on an apocalypse in 2045, so Doc removed them from the time stream. The IDW comic Biff to the Future explains how A-1985 became so chaotic. A day after the school dance, Grandma Tannen forced Biff to drive her to Las Vegas, where he runs afoul of a hustler who tried to rob and kill him, and on his 21st birthday he uses the "Gray's Sports Almanac" to win his first million dollars. He then goes to Hollywood to become a film producer, where his crooked business partner scams him out of a sizable amount of money. After a chance encounter with Ronald Reagan, who decided to go into politics, Biff has his business partner killed and quits show business for good to go into politics himself. Back in Hill Valley, Biff buys his way into the city council and eventually becomes mayor, and has George killed to stop the resistance movement against him. After Biff uses his vast fortune to buy the Washington Post, which owned Hill Valley's local newspaper, Biff accidentally stops the exposÃ© of the Watergate Scandal, which attracts the attention of Richard Nixon. Since no one wanted to take a bet from Biff, or his friends, since the "Gray's Sports Almanac" gave him an edge, Nixon makes Biff an offer: use his vast fortune to help dispose of toxic waste and bribe legislators to repeal the 22nd Amendment, and Nixon will legalize gambling, allowing Biff to open his own casino where he uses "Grey's Sports Almanac" to stack the odds in his favor and keep making winning bets. Doc Brown gets committed to an insane asylum after he and the remnants of the anti-Biff resistance movement get discovered after they keep using the Doc's refrigerator time machine to change the past, which drained the town's power supply.

Back to the Future Part II / int_19b6f396	type	Alternate Timeline
Back to the Future Part II / int_19b6f396	comment	Much of the tension comes from direct causality; in Part II they recognize that the 2015 Biff changed the distant past to create an Alternate Timeline when they returned to 1985. Marty initially suggests going back to 2015 to stop Biff from changing the past, but Doc points out the alternate timeline will have reached 2015, so they need to figure out when in the past Biff changed the timeline. In fact, this leads to another issue: since they learned that Biff won his first millions at the horse race on his 21st birthday in 1958, which was in one of the books that Doc brought from the library, and after Marty learned about the earliest point being 1955, Marty and Doc never seem to think of going between then and 1955 to steal the alamanac back at a better point in that three year span of time so that they wouldn't risk running into Part I Marty and 1955 Doc.

Back to the Future Part II / int_21e5b9c7	type	Failed a Spot Check
Back to the Future Part II / int_21e5b9c7	comment	Failed a Spot Check: During the exchange between Griff's gang and both Marty and Marty Jr., after Marty Jr. is thrown over the counter and lands on the floor next to our Marty, Marty tells him to keep quiet rather than say he's in on Griff's opportunity, then puts on Jr.'s hat and stands up. Somehow, Griff must be too thick-headed to notice that Marty visibly has a red t-shirt underneath his jacket, whereas Marty Jr. has a white shirt, or the fact that Marty Jr.'s left sleeve is ill-fitting, unlike Marty's. Not to mention that his eye color changed from brown to blue, and Marty Jr. seemed to be wearing some sort of hair gel while Marty wasn't. The multiple times that people should be seeing two versions of Marty or Doc. Biff's gang in 1955 should see a Marty on stage and in the opposite wings, and Doc literally meets himself. At least Doc's a little absent-minded, plus 1985 Doc makes sure his past self doesn't see his face. Biff repeatedly fails to notice Marty hiding in the back seat of his car, particularly when Marty is loudly talking to Doc on the walkie-talkie while Biff is driving. When they leave 2015, Doc and Marty both fail to notice that the "Last Time Departed" display on the Time Circuits now reads November 12, 1955 instead of October 26, 1985 as it should. They likewise fail to notice the now-empty Blast from the Past bag and the cracked top of Old Biff's cane inside the car. Both lapses are justified, as Doc and Marty were distracted by the close call with the 1985 and 2015 Jennifers (plus Doc's attention was also focused on dismantling the time machine upon their return home). When they initially think they've returned to 1985, Marty and Doc miss visible and obvious clues that something's very wrong (from bars on the windows of Jennifer's home to the defaced Lyon Estates statues). Subverted when Marty Jr. somehow recognizes the 1985 Jennifer when he passes her in the hall. Despite the Almanac being clearly visible in 1958 Biff's jacket pocket during his first big win, nobody at the Race Track (employees or journalists) noticed it.

Back to the Future Part II / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: In 1985, Biff tries to give Marty a new matchbook for his company before seeing him take off in the DeLorean with Doc. Later, in 1985-A, Marty takes a matchbox from Biff-A's office, and after destroying Gray's Sports Almanac (with a match from said matchbook), he sees its writing change from "Pleasure Paradise" to "Auto Detailing". The billboard ribbon that gets stuck on the DeLorean does come in handy when Doc uses it to save Marty in the tunnel from Biff. During Marty's struggle with Biff in the tunnel to take back the Almanac, he and his hoverboard, floating alongside Biff's car, almost get hit by a truck. This is the same manure truck Biff crashes into (again) a few minutes later. Doubles as Five-Second Foreshadowing.

Back to the Future Part II / int_393ec3f9	comment	Zeerust: Done on purpose; the filmmakers didn't want to try to accurately predict the future, so they just combined Jetsons-esque devices with some obvious jokes. (The McFlys have a fax machine in every room of their house, which apparently all print the same message at once. note A thermal paper fax machine, at that. Some of the printouts have been seen at conventions years later, already decaying due to temperature exposure.) It's more notable to list their predictions that actually came pretty close. Things like 16:9 flat-screen TVs with the ability to watch multiple shows at once don't sound too crazy in a world with Google TV. Hell, think about Marty Jr. watching about eight shows at once, then ask yourself: how many tabs do you have open in your browser right now? (Of course, they completely missed the internet, but so did nearly everyone.) The film shows machines that respond to voice commands, not at all implausible now that we have Siri, Alexa, the Google Assistant, and others. And the thing of a video-phone being integrated into those 16:9 flat-panel TVs? Smart TVs as early as 2012 were being touted as supporting Skype video-calls when equipped with an attachable USB camera/mic combo (sold separately, of course) The Chicago Cubs won the World Series in 2016. The movie was off by a year. The idea of a robot dog-walker (like Marty sees in Hilldale) doesn't seem so farfetched, given the growth of the personal robot market in recent years. The flying thing's unlikely, though. Jennifer enters her future self's home by placing her finger on the fingerprint lock of the entrance door. While this kind of technology is still not usual domestically (due to being expansive, at least compared to traditional locks), fingerprint locks are a reality even before 2015. Many smartphones now have NFC technology that allows one to make credit card payments without a physical card. Fortunately, the MO of the "Thumb Bandits" is impossible; in reality, the thumbs (and other fingers) used must still be attached to living bodies. College Humor did a parody of what Part II's 2015 sequence would be like if 2015 as it's turned out for real was used. The October 21, 2015 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! had Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox playing Doc and Marty arriving in the actual 2015 and being disappointed with it. USA Today published a "Hill Valley Edition" on October 22, 2015, reporting on the arrest of Marty McFly Jr. The last story on the front page bears the headline, "Public More Gullible Than Ever", and uses Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics to detail an experiment from the Sam Houston Institute of Technology apparently revealing how easily readers might mistake the paper's stories for actual events.

Back to the Future Part II / int_3e370c5e	type	Delayed Ripple Effect
Back to the Future Part II / int_3e370c5e	comment	Delayed Ripple Effect: There's a deleted scene in which Old Biff, having returned from the past and set up the Bad Future, emerges from the DeLorean and suddenly fades out of existence. This is because in the bad future, Lorraine gets fed up and shoots him in the 1990s. The scene was deleted mostly because it was unclear what was happening and no one was around to explain why, but that's what the filmmakers said they were aiming for. It's interesting because in the film, we see Old Biff hang around in 1955 with no ill effects, but once he jumps 60 years later, the ripple effect catches up with him faster than Young Biff actually makes use of Old Biff's plan in San Dimas Time. But we also see Old Biff break off the top of his cane as he leaves the DeLorean, and the cane doesn't fade out because it's still in the DeLorean when Doc and Marty return to it — that's how they know what Old Biff did. It suggests the DeLorean has a sort of capsule effect that protects anything in it from time ripples, and that Old Biff faded out as soon as he stepped out of the car.

However, the NES and its launch games initially only released in the New York City area; the console and games didn't see nationwide launch until mid-1986. Media, both news outlets and gaming publications, didn't start regularly covering Nintendo until well into 1986 so the game would have been largely unknown then. Even the arcade version of Wild Gunman (as noted below) didn't reach American arcades until 1986 and later. Of course, Marty may have known someone who had an import version of the game or acquired the NES Wild Gunman from a New York retailer.

Back to the Future Part II / int_5a33cf5	comment	Future Loser: Marty in the version of 2015 seen here (which ultimately doesn't end up happening thanks to events of Part III), due to getting into a car accident with a Rolls-Royce soon after returning home from the events of the first movie (the next day, in fact!). He wound up busting his hand, ending his aspirations of a music career, and was forced to pay for damages. By 2015, Marty is stuck in a dead-end job, unhappily married to Jennifer (who, according to Lorraine, married him out of pity, with their wedding taking place in a cheap chapel), and gets fired when his bosses monitor his calls and learn of his involvement in an illegal transaction. 1985 Marty never finds out the full details about this, only learning from Doc in Part III that he's involved in some kind of accident that messes up his future; it's Jennifer who witnesses this when she's brought to their house after being mistaken for the 2015 one. She's dismayed to see how much her life together with Marty has not gone as she'd hoped it would.

Back to the Future Part II / int_5d753b19	comment	The Smurfette Principle: Jennifer Parker. Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale say that if they had intended to do a sequel at the time they made the original film, they would not have put "the girl" in the car at the end. Sure enough, she's sedated less than five minutes into the movie, and while she does get a bit of screentime in the first act (since the audience sees Marty's and Jennifer's 2015 household through 1985 Jennifer's perspective), she faints once she sees her older self and is out of action for the rest of the trilogy, only waking up again in the denouement of Part III. It's especially telling that when Doc explains to Marty the alternate 1985 that they're in, he claims that this alternate timeline is "alternate to you, me, and Einstein, but reality to everyone else", completely neglecting to mention Jennifer who came from the same original 1985 as they did. (Strictly speaking, Jennifer fits neither category, as she spends her entire time while physically in the alternate 1985 in a profound unwoken faint, so her consciousness never really existed in this timeline to even be able to perceive it and to compare it against her original reality.) Griff's gang of four (himself included) in 2015 has one girl, Spike, which is still more women than Biff's or Buford's gangs had.

Back to the Future Part II / int_62f9d08e	comment	Freeze-Frame Bonus: Many of the examples listed under "foreshadowing" count, but there's a subtle one in that when Marty wears clothes exactly like his future son, he has a red shirt on under the jacket, but when his son gets to the Cafe 80s, he has a white shirt. None of the characters in-universe seem to notice this discrepancy when they switch. Marty Jr. also has different colored eyes, proving he did get something from his mother. Griff, though he looks exactly like a young Biff, also has blue eyes instead of brown. At the beginning of the film, when Doc backs the DeLorean out of the driveway and stops to shift out of reverse, we see a shot of the license plate which no longer reads "OUTATIME" as it did at the beginning of the first film. In this shot, the plate has changed to a chrome barcode on top of an orange background. Like all barcodes, this one has numbers below the bars which read "1011000." This binary number translated to decimal is "88" (as in "88 miles per hour"). This license plate is also briefly visible at the very end of the first film (but is out of focus) and is is shown spinning on one corner after the DeLorean is destroyed by a train at the end of the third film. Many of the headlines of the 2015 USA Today newspaper count, such as "Queen Diana Visits Washington" and "Thumb Bandits Strike". If you pay close attention during the Biff Tannen Museum video, you can see the Sports Almanac visibly tucked in 1958 Biff's jacket pocket. Doc later points it out to Marty when he shows him that day's newspaper and its accompanying banner photograph.

Back to the Future Part II / int_689e667f	comment	They Don't Make Them Like They Used To: This is absolutely Truth in Television: DeLoreans feature a fiberglass body overlaid with relatively thin sheet metal (which would sometimes crack during manufacturing). Some of the crash tests show an unbelievable amount of crumpling when hitting a solid wall (though of course, this is designed for the passengers' safety, which an old, solid â€” too solid, very rigid â€” car like Biff's would score badly on), so Doc is quite accurate with his observation.

After Doc reveals to Marty that Old Biff helped Past Biff get rich with the Sports Almanac, leading to the Bad Present, Marty complains how Old Biff stole his idea simply by eavesdropping. Marty then stops and realizes that this all happened because he even considered the idea in the first place.

Back to the Future Part II / int_7a614b0c	comment	San Dimas Time: Doc rushes to get Marty in position to pretend to be his own son in 2015, and his watch is synced up to 2015 time to make sure he's got his timing right. But if he's wrong, he's got a time machine and can start again- except he doesn't seem to realize this as an option. Much of the tension comes from direct causality; in Part II they recognize that the 2015 Biff changed the distant past to create an Alternate Timeline when they returned to 1985. Marty initially suggests going back to 2015 to stop Biff from changing the past, but Doc points out the alternate timeline will have reached 2015, so they need to figure out when in the past Biff changed the timeline. In fact, this leads to another issue: since they learned that Biff won his first millions at the horse race on his 21st birthday in 1958, which was in one of the books that Doc brought from the library, and after Marty learned about the earliest point being 1955, Marty and Doc never seem to think of going between then and 1955 to steal the alamanac back at a better point in that three year span of time so that they wouldn't risk running into Part I Marty and 1955 Doc.

Back to the Future Part II / int_8a07e085	comment	Denser and Wackier: Although the Crapsack World of 1985-A takes the film into darker territory than its predecessor, Part II is this for the trilogy. While the first and third movies are relatively straightforward Fish out of Temporal Water stories in existent time periods, Part II ups the adventure quota with multiple Set Right What Once Went Wrong scenarios that require multiple time jumps. The different time periods here all feature more fantastical elements than in the other movies; it starts with the protagonists journeying into the distant future (with a lot of broad comedy aimed at the present-day 80s culture), then to the aforementioned alternate crapsack timeline, followed by a jump back into 1955 that has two temporal-fish Martys existing at the same time. The film also starts the franchise tradition of the actors playing multiple generations of the McFly and Tannen bloodlines, rather than just playing the younger or older versions of themselves.

Back to the Future Part II / int_8a295a46	comment	Cool Car: Several from the first movie re-appear. However, a couple of the 2015 cars also double as a Shout-Out. The Star Car from The Last Starfighter is parked on the street during the hoverboard chase. Two Spinners from Blade Runner can be seen (a black one during the hoverboard chase and one in Hilldale). The majority of the cars seen are either concept/prototypes (Pontiac Banshee IV, Pontiac Fiero, Oldsmobile Aerotech II), specialty/Kit Cars (Gene Winfield's Strip Star, Owosso Pulse), or then-new, available cars (Ford Probe, Ford Mustang) with extensive body modifications. The flying taxicab Biff uses to get to Hilldale is a CitroÃ«n DS, a car which was introduced in 1955. Marty suggests just landing the DeLorean on Biff's car to get the almanac back. Doc Brown points out that Biff is in a solid steel car from 1955 and they're in a DeLorean. "He'd rip through us like tin foil."

Back to the Future Part II / int_8d0785d5	type	Didn't Think This Through
Back to the Future Part II / int_8d0785d5	comment	Didn't Think This Through: Much of the plot happens because Doc was careless and didn't mind that an outlandish event such as a flying car disappearing in the air, in broad light, in the middle of a residential neighborhood in 1985 could be spotted by someone, triggering uncontrollable ramifications. While it's not actually pointed out in the film, it's still made clear that Doc made a serious oversight with the design of the Time Circuits: the absence of a recorder or data log to keep track of all the time jumps. This wasn't an issue in the first film, but it now comes back to bite him and Marty in the ass after 2015 Biff steals the DeLorean. Since the Time Circuits don't keep a record of Time Jumps beyond the last departure (and because Doc and Marty Failed a Spot Check when returning from 2015), they don't initially know where and when 2015 Biff gave the Almanac to his younger self. All they know is that it was at some point prior to his 21st Birthday in 1958 (when Biff first used the Almanac), but that also doesn't narrow it down much.

Back to the Future Part II / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: When Marty and Dr. Brown return a sleeping Jennifer back on the porch of her home in 1985-A, Marty noticed something a bit off. For that matter, if you look closely from the moment they enter the alternate 1985, you'll notice that things are slightly off: aside from the bars on the windows, Jennifer's house and yard look slightly run-down, her father's car has been wrecked, and the entrance to Lyon Estates is covered in graffiti and a pack of feral dogs run by after Doc and Marty drive past. When the "DESTINATION TIME" readout on the time circuits flash to "JAN 01 1885 12:00AM" and Doc remarks "Damn, gotta fix this thing." By the end of the film, Doc relates in a letter that he jumped to that time and had already been there for eight months. As Doc is punching in the "Destination Time" of October 26, 1985, 9:00PM to return the group from 2015 to their home time, if you look quickly at the "Time Recently Departed" field, you'll see the date of "November 12, 1955, 6:38PM", hinting at the Time Machine's theft by Old Biff Tannen. Biff-A is watching A Fistful of Dollars, and crows when Clint Eastwood showed he was wearing a stovetop under his poncho, "A bulletproof vest! The guy is brilliant!" Guess how the showdown in Part III is resolved? Also doubles as a Call-Back to how Doc saved himself from the Libyans' attack in the first movie. Again, Buford Tannen's cameo during the Biff Tannen Museum's introductory video. Not only does this set up Buford's role in Part III, but his nickname of "Mad Dog" tells you everything you need to know about Biff's ancestor. Doc tells Marty that his visit to the rejuvenation clinic "added a good 30-40 years" to his life; Word of God said this ensured he could start a family with Clara and be around long enough to see their sons grow up in Part III.invoked Doc tells Marty that telling the police they were time travelers in order to save Jennifer would get them committed. Guess what Doc's fate is in 1985-A? It's blurry, but when Strickland is thumbing through what is supposedly Gray's Sports Almanac after taking it from Biff, you can see pictures... of women. Another bit: it's pointed out when Marty is buying the Almanac earlier in the film that it comes with a dust jacket because it's an antiquated concept in the distant, futuristic year of 2015. Sure enough, Biff took the cover off it at some point and put it over a different book, leading to a Book and Switch situation. Similarly, as 1985-A Biff shows Marty the almanac, you'll notice the cover is gone and the pages are aged after 30 years. Spread out over two movies, but near the end, when Marty proposes that Doc lands the DeLorean on top of Biff's car to stop him, Doc comments on how fragile it is compared to Biff's car; "It'd rip through us like tin foil." Part III shows that Doc is not exaggerating; the DeLorean is struck by an oncoming train and is completely obliterated. While the first scene is more or less a direct recreation of the first film's ending, one difference is that Doc slightly hesitates in telling Marty that he and Jennifer are fine in the future, while that dialogue was delivered straight originally. Doc's hesitation hints at the somewhat dodgy situation the young couple find themselves in 2015. Relatedly, Marty (disguised as his son) meets Old Biff, who insults his father "Marty McFly Sr.? The man who took his life and flushed it completely down the toilet." Marty is confused by that statement, and basically forgets about it when Griff shows up. While Marty doesn't, the audience soon finds out how. Though in Part III, Doc accidentally reveals to Marty that his future is a mess, but couldn't say more. When loading an unconscious Jennifer on to the DeLorean, Doc, having decided to destroy the DeLorean, laments that he'll never get to see his favorite time period, the Old West. He then says he'll probably start exploring another of the universe's great mysteries... women. Guess what happens in the third movie. When Marty heads to the Hill Valley Courthouse Square of 1985-A and sees the full extent of Biff's alterations to the timeline, Sammy Hagar's "I Can't Drive 55" plays as a dark counterpart to the "Mister Sandman" Sequence. When first arriving in 2015, Doc notes that the weather report is accurate to the very second and wishes the postal service could be just the same. Sure enough at the end of the film, Western Union shows up to deliver Marty a message from 1885 right right after Doc disappears as specified in his letter.

Back to the Future Part II / int_a8d6bd1f	comment	Reality-Breaking Paradox: Doc Brown says that the paradox of Jennifer meeting her future self could cause a paradox that destroys the universe. "Granted, that's a worst-case scenario. The effects might be limited to our own galaxy." The novelization gives a little more detail: it's less them possibly meeting and more the possible consequences of the meeting, like say, if the younger Jennifer panicked and ended up causing her past self an injury that her future self never had. Or say, if she tripped and fell down and cracked her head open, making her alive and dead at the same time. In the end, all that happens is that she simply passes out from the shock, which Doc had also admitted was a possibility. When there is a meeting of selves (in the past, no less) the consequences are less severe — a Timeline-Altering MacGuffin leads to a Bad Present that Doc and Marty are forced to prevent.

However, 1985 Marty comes from a time where Hilldale is the hot new development for affluent people, so he sees himself living there as a sign that he's made it big. If the viewer's paying close attention to the Time Circuit readouts (specifically the Last Time Departed display) before Doc and Marty leave 2015, they'll know where and when 2015 Biff went long before Doc and Marty figure it out. In 1985-A, it is established that Lorraine ends up reluctantly marrying the obscenely rich Biff. Earlier in 1955, when Biff torments Lorraine, she responds, "Biff Tannen, I wouldn't be your girl even if... even if you had a million dollars!" Granted, he had to kill George to make that happen.

Back to the Future Part II / int_b6af057e	comment	Double Vision: During production, this movie used this effect to allow Michael J. Fox to play all the characters at the dinner table; Industrial Light and Magic used a special robot controlled camera to allow camera movements while making sure that all the backgrounds lined up. It was also used in scenes where Biff Tannen and Doc Brown from the future met their 1955 selves, although not without a great deal of painting the frame (see the scene where Old Biff throws the book at Young Biff). The second film does a variation on the usual "split-screen" effects when the flying DMC-12 lands "behind" a streetlight for a perfect model-to-car transition.

Also, Old Biff meets his teenage self. Even funnier, Jennifer's future self happens to pass out in shock gasping, "I'm young!" Old Biff is pretty scary, given that that version of Biff has just as much of a temper as young Biff, with bitterness that's been marinating for decades added in, and actual intelligence to replace his thuggishness. Jennifer also has a similar reaction to the sight of her future boyfriend/husband, Marty — he is unbelievably different than the guy that she's in love with in 1985. Marty himself never sees his future self, but he learns enough in Part III to avert the accident that sent him down that path.

Thirdly, even if Diana had been alive and still married to Charles, she wouldn't have been the queen in 2015, as Elizabeth II was still on the throne by the time 2015 rolled around in real-life (in fact, that year saw her surpass Queen Victoria's record as the longest-reigning British monarch).

It also features the Jaws NES game and a VHS copy of Jaws 2. (Not to mention the Jaws 19 hologram.) The virtual Michael Jackson, Ronald Reagan and Ayatollah Khomeini are modeled after Max Headroom. The tv screens in the Cafe 80s all display tv shows owned or produced by Universal Television (Miami Vice, Knight Rider, etc. can be seen). Marty Jr. shouts "Hey, I'm walkin' here!" at a taxi. It's a Wonderful Plot: Many references to It's a Wonderful Life during the 1985-A sequence. 1985-A Hill Valley is a not-so-subtle reference to Pottersville, and you just substitute Biff in Potter's place. One of the articles in the paper in 1985-A about Doc Brown being committed reads "Nixon to seek fifth term", a possible shout-out to Watchmen. In 2015, there's a poster which says "Surf Vietnam". This doubles as foreshadowing, as the Vietnam War is still grinding on in a dystopian Biffverse. Biff's line "I own the police" is a reference to a similar line in Chinatown concerning Noah Cross, another morally bankrupt magnate whose power leads to a dystopian reality. Blink and you'll miss it, but the StarCar from The Last Starfighter can be seen in 2015. You can catch it just as the Jeep rockets down from the sky in the chase sequence.

Back to the Future Part II / int_ca7ec334	comment	Two Lines, No Waiting: Invoked: a major hurdle in Doc and Marty's plan to steal the Almanac from Biff in 1955 is that these events take place at the same time as Marty's first trip to 1955. As such, not only do Doc and Marty have to make sure that they don't cross paths with themselves, but also make sure that Part 1!Marty makes it out of the dance in time to get to the Clocktower. This gets exploited at one point: after realizing that Biff still has the Almanac, Marty takes advantage of a brief window of opportunity to nab it from him after George laid him out. It occurs in reverse as well: after Biff provokes Marty after triggering his Berserk Button, Marty proceeds to approach him... only for Part 1-Marty to come barreling out of some doors, knocking him to the ground in the process and causing Biff to steal the Almanac back. And, of course, the most pertinent one: right as Marty and Doc succeed in destroying the Almanac, the lightning storm starts to pick up, and the DeLorean gets struck.

Back to the Future Part II / int_deb39de3	comment	Bad Future: The filmmakers aimed to avert this trope regarding year 2015, as they didn't want to just rip off Blade Runner and wanted to get people out of that sort-of grim mindset, so they portrayed the future as a generally nice place to live, though not perfect, and that any trouble was caused by the people (like Griff) there, not technology. Also, they knew that whatever they showed would likely become badly dated or inaccurate as the real 2015 came around, so they just made it all into jokes.

Back to the Future Part II / int_e9e2c54d	comment	You Already Changed the Past: Doc's letter at the end sort of plays this trope straight (the only part of the trilogy to do so), though Rule of Cool applies for obvious reasons. This is debatable however, as since the letter arrives after the DeLorean gets struck by lightning, it could be argued that the Western Union guy wasn't there at all until the ripple effect kicked in. Alternatively, since Doc took The Slow Path to send that letter, the ripple effect kicked in a long time ago, the viewer just doesn't get to see it. The Western Union guy is the only instance of a character being present (and on-screen) for an altered event rather than simply having or, in Marty's case, being a ripple-affected artifact that's been temporally displaced.

Back to the Future Part II / int_f81d8982	comment	High-School Sweethearts: The main character, Marty, has this relationship with his girlfriend, Jennifer — we see them married with two kids in the future. But in this first timeline, the marriage isn't very happy. The bad timeline has a newsreel claiming Biff and Lorraine were this, when they were clearly anything but.

Back to the Future Part II / int_f91d1d4f	comment	Darkest Hour: Often cited as the darkest movie in the trilogy, since Biff "wins" in 1985-A and it's up to Doc and Marty to fix the timeline.

Back to the Future Part II / int_f925627c	comment	Chase Stops at Water: Inverted with the hoverboard chase — Marty is the one unable to cross the water, because his hoverboard stalls out halfway across, while Griff can thanks to his rocket-powered board (though it doesn't end up helping him in the end).

Back to the Future Part II / int_f933e594	comment	How the Mighty Have Fallen: Back in 1955, Lorraine was a headstrong spitfire who swore she'd never ever marry Biff even if he had a million dollars. In 1985-A, Lorraine has been reduced to a battered, defeated trophy wife forcefully married to Biff, broken to the point where she can only resign to his whims and believe his cruel treatment is her fault.

Back to the Future Part II / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: Biff has seen the time machine in every single time period they go to: 1985 Biff sees a "flying DeLorean" leave the McFly home and disappear. 2015 Biff sees the DeLorean again and chuckles that he hasn't seen one in 30 years, but is distracted by seeing two "Marty"s. 1985-A Biff doesn't have time to register fully either as he's knocked cold by the gull-wing door. 1955 Biff sees it in flight, but smashes into a manure truck right after.

Back to the Future Part II / int_faf36236	type	Cyberpunk
Back to the Future Part II / int_faf36236	comment	Cyberpunk: Downplayed if not defied. According to the behind-the-scenes featuretteinvoked, Robert Zemeckis intended the future he wrote to be a counterpoint to the darker dystopian visions of cyberpunk, Blade Runner in particular. Hill Valley really is "a nice place to live" in 2015; technology seems to make life better instead of worse, and the police don't seem overly concerned for their own safety even in the rough neighborhood of Hilldale. That said, there are apparently no lawyers in 2015, hoodlums like Griff run rampant with cybernetic enhancements, and there are still areas of poverty. The Hill Valley of 1985-A plays this straighter, albeit without the cool tech: enormous poverty, a broken political system, and a corrupt billionaire having absolute power over society.

Back to the Future Part II / int_faf383f7	comment	Time-Traveling Jerkass: 2015 Biff to a T. He takes Grey's Sports Almanac back to the 1950s and gives it to his past self along with the idea to get rich, which results in 1985-A, a dystopia where Biff murdered George and married Lorraine, who can't get away from him thanks to the power he has. When Marty tries to nab the almanac, he discovers that 2015 Biff also warned his past self about that possibility and he barely escapes with his life.

Back to the Future Part II / int_fe10cf42	comment	Alien Space Bats: 1985-A. Not only did Biff change the history of Hill Valley for the worse, he also changed world history by helping Richard Nixon remain president for more than a decade, making the The Vietnam War last longer. (An impressive feat given that the presidency was capped at two terms in 1951...)

For Biff, that's a lot.

Back to the Future Part II / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: The college football scores Biff hears on his car radio are the actual scores of actual college football games played on Saturday, November 12, 1955 — except, oddly, the Texas A&M-Rice matchup, which the radio announcer says A&M won 20-10 when the actual score was 20-12. Bob Gale said he personally researched the scores of that day to avoid the wrath of sports fans who would call him out if they weren't accurate. The UCLA game the Biffs listen to also correctly notes the Bruins played at the L.A. Memorial Coliseum; although it opened in 1922, the Rose Bowl wouldn't be the home of UCLA football until 1981. It's true that nobody really knew what CPR was until roughly two years later. October 21, 2015 did fall on a Wednesday.
