    Will the Future be Back this July?

    Some of us have enjoyed film experiences which just seem to be defining a moment, era, or time in our lives. The "Back to the Future" trilogy is one of those experiences for me, for too many reasons to go into. There was a time (that lasted for months) when my daughter was young that the big question Friday or Saturday night was which of the three movies she wanted to watch again that night. I'll never forget those evenings with her, and the glow of my Zenith projector on the big screen, and the light reflected into her eyes and rapt smile. Fortunately I had bought these on Laser Disks, so we couldn't wear them out!

    But, I WANT MY DVDs! The release of these films has been an on again/off again affair since 1997, as they were some of the first titles initially announced- then withdrawn- then announced- then withdrawn again. Grrrrrrr!

    A fairly complete documentation of this announcement history is available here:

    A worldwide cultural phenomenon and the highest-grossing film of 1985, Back to the Future launched one of the most successful franchises in Universal's history, including two theatrical sequels, an animated television series, a theme park ride, a musical, an escape room, toys, comic books, video gam


    A more general overview of all kinds of topics related to the films, and the people involved in their making, is here:
