Back To The Future

I’m currently in Thailand with my wife and going to the beach everyday. Since I know the Delorean Time Machine like the back of my hand. I’m going to attempt to create it in the sand. Definently won’t be to scale.

Back in Miami I have my dad starting my Delorean every couple of weeks. I’ll be back in a few months. I have some Back to the Future posts I will be publishing shortly.

This guy does great impressions. Nailed the George McFly facial expressions in his laugh at the start of the video perfectly

Is Bollywood remaking Back to the Future? RealBollywoodNews is reporting that Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai have been cast in Action Replay (yeah, horrible title…), a film which will be unofficially based on the popular 1985 Robert Zemeckis film Back to the Future. BTTF.com was able to contact Future producer/screenwriter Bob Gale who denied any knowledge of the production.

Bollywood has a long history of “borrowing” film storylines from popular Hollywood films (google “bollywood star wars”). The ages of the two leads (41 and 35 respectfully) confirm that it won’t be a close adaptation. Action Replay will begin production in February 2009.

It seems like down vests are becoming more and more popular recently. I was walking around the mall yesterday and saw some in the True Religion store. It was not screen accurate but it wasn’t half bad.

But for the $149 price tag, I wouldn’t buy it.

Anyone with Comcast OnDemand, can watch the Back to the Future trilogy OnDemand including lots of extras like the movie trailers and filming site tours.

Everything you wanted to know about the Aiwa cassette player worn by Marty McFly in Back to the Future

The AIWA tape player model used is model number HS-PO2MK II made in 1984. The model is available in a red Body and a Silver Body. The silver one was used in the movie. Also the words Stereo is printed in a blue color.

Other similar models to Marty’s Tape Player include:

Aiwa HS-F07 (Silver) (The word STEREO REC is printed in red color) (1984)
Aiwa HS-F07 (Black) (The word STEREO REC is printed in red color) (1984)
Aiwa HS-P07 (Silver) (The word STEREO is printed in blue color) (1985) (very similar to HS-P02 Mk II and commonly mistaken for Marty’s model.)

This fan made music video is nothing but great. Razimus puts himself in the scenes of the Back to the Future trilogy and interacts with himself wearing amazing back to the future costumes. The lyrics to the song is great. Besides the wrong jean jacket for his Marty McFly costume, it was perfect.

 One word. Hilarious. 

Here are some of Ron Cobb’s original conceptual designs for the DeLorean time machine from Back to the Future. The interior photos show no sign of the flux capacitor and remember the flux capacitor is what makes time travel possible.

This very rare delorean toy car was sold exclusively by Toys R’ Us back in the late 80′s and early 90′s. I remember being in Toys R’ Us back when i was around 8 and begging my parents to get me this (Around 1992). They would not because of the price tag (Around $119) and mainly because i was way to big for it. I think this is designed for 2-4 years old. It actually moves just like the popular Barbie Jeep.

Current high bidder is me with a bid of $39.99. I already own this jacket and only bid on it because of the low bid. I have no intentions of actually winning this jacket. I paid $200 shipped for my jacket last month and will expect this jacket to go for around the same price.These jackets don’t pop up that often so if you been waiting for one in size large, I would jump on this offer and maybe you can get it for a great price. (I am not affiliated with seller in any way)
