It's episode 225...and I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.
Back to the Future (1985) tells the story of Marty McFly, a precocious teen with deadbeat parents and a good friend in Doc Brown, a local inventor and all-round eccentric. When Marty helps Doc test his newly-constructed time machine, he winds up stranded three decades earlier in 1955. Can he convince the younger Doc Brown to help him, and can he make sure his high schooler parents still meet and fall in love?
It's time for celebration as we mark the 35th anniversary of one of the greats of family adventure cinema, and cover all the usual ground - fawning potrayals of Americana, desperate levels of product placement, troubling depictions of sexual violence, the ending's facist overtones, and elderly men welding U-Boats in a 3ft canal in West London.
All of which leads to one important question: How would you survive?
Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: Nobody calls me chicken!
Join us next time as we carry on time travelling in Rian Johnson's Looper (2012).
