How Back to the Future II Left a Mark on Pop Culture
At a time when ticket prices were about half of the price today, Back to the Future II became a success. Since its release in November 1989, the movie has grossed more than $330 million.
Writers and creators of the series, Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis, constructed a film franchise beloved by many. There are iconic phrases and notorious jokes that have stood the test of time.
As such, the faces of Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd as their time-traveling characters prevail as mainstays in popular culture.
Predicting the Future in 1989
It is interesting to notice the futuristic details in the events of “2015,” or Back to the Future‘s predictions. Although today it feels like we have an app for everything and we can get email updates in the blink of an eye, the fictional future still seems more advanced.
You may wish today’s society was on the same page as the Zemeckis classic, but maybe the movie was a little overzealous. Moviegoers saw hoverboards, flying cars, and endless Jaws sequels. Perhaps one thing reality can account for is the Chicago Cubs winning a World Series.
Back to the Future Memorabilia
Fans can receive gorgeous items in honor of the significant movie series. Many are sold at a regular price and, often, shipping is included. Consider adding a signed poster or even a hoverboard to your collection.
Fans can also sell their old merchandise to other movie enthusiasts who mean business. It can be challenging to find a regular price for the items, including shipping, but once you get your hands on a valuable reminder of Doc and Marty’s adventures, you’ll speak only in movie quotes – “Great Scott!”
