Just realised, though I'm only really repeating what Okenobi said, but the time circuits are never set to the 25 years in the future that Doc wants to go as the Libyans interrupt him when it's set to 1955, which is why Marty goes back to 1955. I assume Doc was going to change the date when he got in the car. As we said earlier, the film is set in October, so we can only assume that he would have gone to October 2010, though he may have chosen New Year's Day.

Further discussion and photoshopped pic here though half these people shouldn't consider themselves fans as they don't seem to understand what it's all about!


Thanks for the backup Tom. It amazes me that people can get this so wrong. I was fairly convinced before I busted out the DVD, but even a quick pass of the Twin Pines chapter was incontrovertible.

Congrats to you Jon!

So it's Total Film's fault?! Well that makes sense, they're a bunch of useless twats with a mag that thinks it's as good as Empire, but clearly isn't.

I think both those mags are sh1t now (both used to be outstanding). Total Film's writers remind me of The Offspring song about the guy trying too hard to be hip, and recently Empire will do their best to ruin entire films with massive spoilers :roll:

I got a cheap subscription to Empire purely because of the retrospective articles - I'm nearly afraid to read anything else in it :(

Workaround

I once worked on a friend's dad's computer. He had the hard drive divided into eight partitions, C: through H:, with a "Documents&" directory tree on each one. Each new file appeared to be saved to a partition at random. I knew enough not to ask.

Raoul Moat wrote a 49-page letter. These days, if I get anything that's 49 pages long, I just scroll to the bottom and click 'Agree'.

I am sure that the iTunes Agreement has the acceptance that I will go on a murderous campaign for Apple at some point when called upon in it.

I feckin' hate fire alarms. Especially when I've gone to bed. And it's all because some morons were smoking in their kitchen. This doesn't have the "Oh dear - they really are very dumb" of the chinese students who microwaved baked beans in the can on 3 consecutive nights in first year. At least that was at about 18:00. Hrmph.

Not as much as used to. When I was at uni, the alarm only went off in the block it was activated in. However, as I worked in the halls (one night in three for free rent) I had to get up whenever the alarms went off on my shift, regardless of which off the dozen or so blocks it went off in.
The worst times were when some drunken idiot smashed a break glass. We couldn't reset the alarm until we'd found the spares. The knob that did it wasn't too popular at three in the morning.
