Great Scott! That’s A Lot of Deloreans For Sale!

by bluxed on June 24, 2008

Maybe it is because of the economy or maybe it is because of the Delorean attention from DCS 08 but as of today there is 16 Deloreans for sale on ebay.

Delorean prices and bids ranging from $200 to $49,880 for a 1981 Delorean with a stage II upgrade. Not a good time to consider selling your Delorean on ebay but maybe a good time to get one at a good price.

The shirt was custom made by Shah Safari specially for Michael J. Fox for the film. A friend of mine was able to make a fabric pattern of the shirt and contacted Shah Safari about a large custom order of the exact shirt from the movie.

Back to the Future Interpolated Rotoscope

by bluxed on June 22, 2008

After watching the movie “A Scanner Darkly”, I have became very interested in Interpolated Rotoscope. Rotoscoping is an animation technique in which the animators trace over film to create animated films. The original image was an HD image with dimensions of 8,000 by 4,500. This one frame took me about 7 hours to finish. If I tried to make the entire back to the future movie to be rotoscoped by myself it would probably take over 10 years. The process requires me to actually use the pencil and paint brush tool in Photoshop and draw right on top of the film image. I am going to continue rotoscoping memorable images from the movie and maybe even create a short video of the scene below.

After I create a few rotoscoped images I am going to have one printed and framed. If people were interested I could offer it for sale on bttfblog.com

You Built an Electric Car … Out of a DeLorean?

by bluxed on June 20, 2008

The New York Times wrote an article about Deloreans last week.

The DeLorean Car Show this weekend in Gettysburg, Pa., will probably bring out many different examples of the much beloved stainless steel car, from pristine restorations to the requisite B.T.T.F. (that’s “Back to the Future”) time machine conversions. But the most interesting car at the biannual event could be an electric DeLorean, built by Dave Delman out of his garage in Jericho, N.Y.

Cardboard Delorean

by bluxed on June 20, 2008

Susannah Haldeman found the cardboard Delorean in front of Hopkins hall on the oval at Ohio State University in the spring of 2005.

The cardboard Delorean was for Art 206, 3-D Foundations. The class took 3 weeks to finish the project. The car was taken apart and given to each of the students. The class thought about making the DeLorean time machine but figured it would take too much time to finish.

Courthouse Square Set From Back to the Future Destroyed In Fire

by bluxed on June 1, 2008

A fire at Universal Studios today has destroyed a set from “Back to the Future,” the King Kong exhibit and a video vault containing more than 40,000 videos and reels.

Alhough the fire has been contained, officials say the iconic courthouse square from “Back to the Future,” has been destroyed, and the famous clocktower that enabled star Michael J. Fox’s character to time travel has been damaged.

Los Angeles County Fire Inspector Daryl Jacobs said at least one building had burned and as many as three blocks of movie facades were destroyed. The cause of the fire at Universal Studios is under investigation.


Even with a healthy Michael J. Fox there can’t be a Back to the Future 4 without the courthouse square
