I love how I've become completely addicted to Back to the Future fanfic, even though I'm not all that crazy about the movies. I also love how George/Marty is way more popular than you might think. There's even a fanlisting, for heaven's sake.

I need to just give in and buy the trilogy on DVD so that I don't have to rent the tapes at Movie Gallery anymore, as they are ancient and worn from being viewed hundreds of times.

Crispin has said in interviews that he thought Stoltz was a better actor.


Bwahahaha! Sigh.

... I'm not sure. It wasn't terrible, I guess, but it wasn't all that interesting. I don't really want to rewatch it myself. :D


Love Interest. I'm telling you. You know they're scraping the bottom of the barrel there. Also, it's pretty funny how Clara falls for Doc, like, instantly, but Christopher Lloyd looks cadaverous practically to the point of illness through most of the flick. I guess true love really can see beyond the exteriour. Especially in the movies. [/superficial cattiness]

Said compulsiveness will not allow me to fast forward to the end, either. Dammit.

Woo, I know that feeling...



Yeah, I was so proud of myself last night when I threw caution to the wind and fast forwarded through the whole dramatic "could more shit possibly go wrong?" scene to get to the end. (By the way, what's up with all the extra stuff they threw in there? As if being at precisely the correct speed and making contact with the wire at the right microsecond with all that wind and rain buffeting the car and slicking up the street isn't difficult enough? Yeah, I know, I know, Hollywood blah, but honestly, with a little effort they could have made it just as dramatic without all that other stuff.)

Yes, you should. :D Please. I so want to make a little Marty/George archive site (just a little one that will never get updated, like most of the sites I make) and... you know... content is always good.


Yeah, there is that whole content thing. Though a couple of my drabble ideas have nothing to do with George/Marty. One has Biff thinking about why he accepts the McFlys as auto-detailing clients when he could just tell them to push off, and another has Marty noticing his new friend the Doc's obsession with time. I also want to do something with post-trilogy Marty realizing, as things settle down, that he doesn't know his own family anymore.

Bottom line is that I was surfing through BttF fanfiction sites and they make me want to enact backlash very badly. Possibly because I know those people blame me for the downfall of civilization. And I can be bitter about that.



Man, I knew what link was before I even hovered the arrow over it to check the URL. I started to read that, got as far as the part about how slashers are diseased and delusional human beings (or however she put it) and got so angry that I had to leave the site immediately. I'm still angry whenever I think about it, and I'm too angry to go in and pull out an actual quote. Somehow, I've always managed to avoid being seriously, severely flamed (how I did this when I used to post Harry Potter slash on ff.net, I still don't know), so I've never had a chance to develop any kind of immunity to shit like that. I know in theory that a lot of people in fandom really, really hate us, but seeing it in practice was quite a shock.

The explanation has been easy, the sex is hard. What can I say?

From what I've heard, that's basically the story of life in general. Not that I would know. Yet.

Yeeee-eeees... but if he didn't, they would have had to think of a more plausible sequel? I'm not sure. But, yes, Doc is acting especially mad and hypocritical in the second movie.


Thought so. I tend to overthink things a little, so I just wanted to double-check.

I have this theory that the McFlys are destined to be a line of losers anyway, and Doc's machinations only temporarily circumvent that. They'll revert back to type eventually.
