Back to the Future - The Game - The Marty

I have been a huge Back to the Future fan since it was first released in theaters in 1985. That 116 minute thrill ride established life-long passions of both the intricacies of time travel theory and the DeLorean DMC-12 that are alive and well in me to this day! Well, there's been a lot of Back to the Future stuff in the news the past few weeks, as it's an anniversary year and they are really making it count. Rob Bricken at toplessrobot.com dug up a video from the recent Scream awards of Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox appearing on stage together which is just fantastic - Fox is really hanging in there, and battling his illness like the champion that he is.

Then today, Adam over at 16bit.com found another video about the upcoming BttF game, and the voice casting for the Marty character. It's a pretty cool video, worth a watch, and seeing Lloyd gesticulate wildly while voicing Doc 25 years later pushed me over the edge of debating how much coverage to give to the resurgence of popularity in this movie. Answer? A lot of (ongoing) coverage now!


And in case you haven't been checking out other toy sites last week, Mattel has picked up the full license to make BttF figures and merchandise. Given that the Hoverboard from part 2 was boldly stamped with Mattel...well, let's just say we're all very impatient now!
(No - sadly I doubt they are making a hoverboard....)
