  This made me cry. Not because I’m sad and lonely but because it took me back to a time and place where life was good, I was young and care free and everything was just good. BTTF has been such a vital part of my life since I saw it in 1985. I can remember renting it on Beta and me and my mom sitting down and watching it one night. God rest her soul, this movie gives me happy thoughts of that night we watched it. Her excitement was that of mine. My first concert as a 15 year old was Huey Lewis in 1986 because of Back to the Future! I have all the posters including the BTTF 2 Coming Soon poster. I have fan club magazines, comic books, Mad Magazine with BTTF on the cover, figures, I even paid $1700 to build the Eaglemoss 1/8 BTTF Delorean! Heck, on my 51st birthday this year, I went and got my first tattoo…the Outtatime license plate and the BTTF arrow in 3D!! This movie has lifted me up in bad times and made it better in good times. It’s not just a movie to me. It’s like an old friend..

  This is a perfect example of why we 80s kids will always believe it’s the greatest decade ever never to be outdone

  Considering how rare the DeLorean is today, seeing images of hundreds of them sitting next to each other outside the factory is so surreal.

  the fact that fans restored it makes it so much more special.

  I have all the books, I’ve seen all the documentary’s, but this is by far the best. Thank you so much for this fabulous content. You’ve made this Back to the Future super fan very happy. So often these days, movie documentary’s are over edited and actually have no depth and detail, but not this one. ‘If you’re gonna make a documentary about the time machine built into a car, why not do it with some style’  👌 Thank you thank you, excellent work 🙏👌👍

  Absolutely love how they remained grounded, and stuck with the idea that it needed to look like Doc Brown built it in his garage. Also love what Bob Gale said: "Sometimes, limitations on things makes you even more creative" And that's why BTTF is such an amazing film. And why the DeLorean has legendary status 👍

  Back to the Future is my favorite movie of all time and even though I've seen it a dozen times or more, still hard to choose a favorite scene.....and, I'm pushing 82.

  That car took that guy back to a time when he didn't have cancer. A time machine indeed!

  This is quite possibly the best documentary on the car I have seen.

  Back to the Future has been my favorite movie since I was a kid. Owning a DeLorean and driving it around to share with others has been as magical a memory as I can think of. Letting kids sit in the car while their parents take pics is something truly special. If you have one, share it with others. The 80&apos;s were great and I don&apos;t know any other car that can make people smile like a DeLorean. Thanks for sharing this wonderful movie.
