The top mistakes in Back to the Future http://www.moviemistakes.com/film106 en Sat, 10 May 2008 05:55:01 +0000 9620 In the scene where Marty is being chased by the Libyans, a few times they cut away to show the instrumentation in the car. The first time the odometer reads 33064.2 and the trip counter says 88.8; the second time it's goes back a little to 33061.8 and 86.4. A few seconds later we see it as he turns the corner, and it goes down again from 33,061.8 to 32,994.4, the trip counter has gone from 86.4 to 19! 16830 When Marty is writing the letter to Doc before he goes into the future, the word "disaster" is the only word in the last line. Yet when Doc shows Marty the letter when it has been all taped up, "terrible disaster" is the last line. Also, the handwritring in each letter is different (i.e. Marty's signature). They are two different letters. 717 When Doc and Marty are at the Twin Pines Mall and Doc is telling Marty about the car etc, he says "never mind that now, never mind that now..." and Marty has the camera facing the ground, yet later when Doc in 1955 is watching the video, you can see him saying that on the video. 9622 When Marty is standing over his father's bed in 1955 persuading him to date Lorraine, there is a hair-dryer in Marty's belt that appears and reappears between different frames. Really obvious. <em>[This scene was originally longer, including a part where Marty removed the hair dryer from his belt. Still a mistake, but there's the explanation. Some people keep bringing up another deleted scene where Doc finds a hair dryer, which has nothing to do with this. The mistake is the disappearing hair dryer in this specific scene - whether we see it again or not elsewhere is irrelevant].</em> 25081 At the end, the DeLorean hits the left dustbin and comes to a halt - you can easily see that it's not Christopher Lloyd driving, it's someone with a much bigger build, wearing an awful white wig.
