The Adventures Await You
Kicking things off with the original Back to the Future, Marty McFly accidentally travels back to 1955 and must ensure his parents fall in love to save his own existence. Then jump to Back to the Future Part II, where the future (hello, 2015!) awaits with flying cars, self-lacing Nikes, and the almighty sports almanac that Biff Tannen (Thomas F. Wilson) loves to misuse.
Finally, round out your journey with Back to the Future Part III, as our heroes find themselves in the rough-and-tumble Old West. With its memorable quotes, unforgettable soundtrack (Huey Lewis and the News, anyone?), and timeless storyline, the Back to the Future trilogy remains a beloved classic.
A Box Office Hit
The Back to the Future trilogy was both a financial and critical success. The first film, released in 1985, grossed over $381 million worldwide against a $19 million budget, making it the highest-grossing film of that year. The entire trilogy collectively earned approximately $936 million globally.
The Hulk says if you’re in the present and you go back to the past, you cannot affect the present because it has already occurred.
A Timeless Classic
