Ahh man, that just makes me want a BTTF 4

They could write parkinsons into the story or something ..

If they remake BTTF with Zach Afro Boy, I'll lose my mind.

Ha, cool bananas. Poor guy though, his Parkinson's tremor seems to be really bad, even in that short clip of him still looks great tho

Actually JCVD stayed working on Prediator as a stunt double and techincal advisor, but thankfully not as the Prediator himself as he was too short.

Really? says on wiki that he was "removed from the film", i would have took that to mean completely? it says as well as the size thing, he voiced his reservations on numerous occasions regarding the fact he would not be appearing on camera without the suit and, according to Jesse Ventura, intentionally injured a stunt man.....grain of salt as allows with wiki but sounds to me that he was a difficult employee and they got rid...

sorry for going off topic

Going tonight, can't wait

Just back. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Only about a dozen people there. Even though I've seen it a hundred times (including hi-def), I noticed loads of things I'd never noticed before, like doc's fake looking aged makeup & the buildings around the square looking fake (even though I've stood there & touched them on more than one occasion). Glad I got to see it.

Saw it in blackpool cinema in cork on wednesday. I'm not ****ting you, me and my girlfriend were the only people there! i felt like a rich person in my own cinema room.

anyway, it was great seeing it on the big screen, the two hours absolutely fly by, the acting, the dialogue, the one liners, tremendous. Loved it.

Happy BTTF Night. 25 years ago, Marty Mc Fly went Back to 1955

Has anybody any idea about the retail cost of the Blurays?

elvis jones

I think it was 50 in HMV on sat ?

Beefy78

Yeah it's on sale at 49.99 in HMV. No chance I'm paying that though. If you know anyone in the UK get them to pick it up for you over there. It's £27.99 on Play I think and around the same on Amazon.

Come to think of it I think it's about E35 on Play Ireland.

elvis jones is right, it's €50 in HMV, whilst the DVD is €25. €60 if you want the tinned collectors box which comes with some mini-posters and other stuff. Absolute rip-off IMO.

Online it's :
€41.45 (+ €1 P&P) on Zavvi.com
€32.03 (+ P&P) on Amazon.co.uk
€39.49 (free delivery) on Play.com (i don't think an Irish can order in £ on it). It's £28 for UK customers aka €32.05 straight conversion.

As someone with the DVD trilogy already, i could only pay about €20-25 for it on blu-ray.

They're "continuing" the franchise by way of a game. Endorsed by Bob Zale & starring Chris Lloyd, rumour has it MJF will feature also

Your link indicates they have another fella doing Marty's voice. "AJ Locascio."
Good impression of Marty too from him http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGOYoEQPqXk

Wonder what MJF might do?

The shops really do know how to drive people to online shopping. They should all be ashamed of themselves. This will be an online purchase for me.

It should come with free shipping from Amazon as it is over £25

It's a shame that they couldn't get MJF to voice Marty. I'm no expert in his condition but I'd have imagined that this would have been an area where he could still work if he chose to do so.

Even by that really short trailer re-enactment it was clear his parkinson's tremor was really bad. With Parkinson's you also get speech problems (soft, monotonous, fast, difficult-to-understand) among other problems with muscles, walking and psychiatric as well so I'd imagine that it would be far too much for MJF to do a professional-grade job voice acting.

Beefy78

Just watched that trailer. Yeah, you're right. Damned shame. As Empire said this month, Michael J Fox should have been the biggest star on the Planet and yet he ends up like that. It's a cruel World.

Shop Ireland has it as well in Euro prices with free delivery but for much the same as the prices here.

Agreed. DVD trilogy is there, and watched quite a bit, but I still cant justify spending 50 notes on the BluYay version! Cant justify it... didn't say I could resist!
Might have to leave it for that christmas gift.

He was a really funny guy when he was active in the business but tbh he hit his peak before his condition set in and that peak was never that high. BTTF and Spin City were great and he had a good dramatic turn in "Casualties of War" but apart from that he never really seemed to be on track to being a superstar actor. Heresy I know

Beefy78

Oh yeah, I'm not blaming his condition (although it obviously curtailed his career), but he's so good in most of the films that he did make, especially BTTF, that he should have gone on to have an amazing career.

They should have done BTTF4 a few years back when he wasn't so bad.

There's enough talent in Hollywood for them to have commission a decent script, not to mention all the amateur material and ideas around that have suggested some great story lines.

Guess it will never happen now ..

I thought he was great as Dwight in Rescue Me and I'm surprised nobody used the mad car scene footage from that to create a fake trailer for BTTF4.

– Thaw (2009) … Dwight
– Perspective (2009) … Dwight
– Sheila (2009) … Dwight
– French (2009) … Dwight
– Baptism (2009) … Dwight

Anyone that hasn't seen them, they are a must watch for MJF fans.

Burning Eclipse

Funny alternate casting options courtesy of SNL... The Bill Hader impression in the second video in this link is the best impersonation I've ever seen/heard!

La frog fairy

for the ones in Dublin, it still shows in Dundrum movie theatre, right? or is there another place?

Really need to see it before its gone:p

doubledown

It's still showing in Dundrum, but only at 1:35 in the afternoon and at 11am and 1:35pm at weekends.

I saw him and Christopher Lloyd accepting their award at the Spike Scream Awards on YouTube. MJF seemed a lot better than I expected though count that on the medicine he takes.

Worst thing about the presentation was when the Delorean came out on stage, the crowd went wild thinking our 2 chums would hop out when in fact David Spade crawled out of the thing and presented the award.

Thought this was cool ..

GREAT SCOTT!

They're real!

Nike is only releasing 1,500 pairs of the Nike Air Mag. All of the pairs will be auctioned on eBay with all of the proceeds going to the Michael J. Fox Foundation which helps fund research on Parkinson's Disease.


Nice gesture from Nike.
