Recently shared the bttf series with my 11yo. The third doesn't hold up too well, but the first two are great. The funny part was that she saw the 80s and the 50s as basically the same.
- phkahler 3y ago>> The funny part was that she saw the 80s and the 50s as basically the same. Is that because neither of them have any electronic devices? They both have payphones and cars that don't look like today?
- stavros 3y agoI think it's an issue of the fact that they're both "before my time". I treat the 20s and 50s as the same, I wouldn't be able to tell you any difference, even though they must be massively different.
- tempestn 3y agoYeah, they both just looked "old fashioned" to her. Obviously she could pick out some differences, but when they first went back to 1955, she didn't really notice that the cars, outfits, signage, etc. were particularly more dated than they had been in the 80s version.
- MobileVet 3y agoFascinating. I had never considered that. Will definitely be looking more closely when I watch with the family
- trafficante 3y agoSame thing with my nephew, though he did pick up on the cars. He also was very confused by the “Ronald Reagan? The ACTOR??” joke but immediately thought that BTTF2 Mogul-Biff was supposed to be Trump.
- tempestn 3y agoWe do seem to be in the Trump almanac timeline.
