Gaines writes a thorough synopsis of the movies and what has been going on with the films and actors, and how the movies impacted on the public and fans. Books About Film and Television ( ) A short but thorough enough behind-the-scenes look at the making of the Back To The Future trilogy. It (understandably) focuses heavily on the first movie, and its only real shortcoming is the lack of new Michael J Fox material. it's a true compliment to say that this is one old-movie recounting that performs better as a book rather than a lazy magazine oral history. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. 2015 marks several significant anniversaries for the Back to the Future film trilogy. The first film in the trilogy came out in July 1985, and we just passed the date — October 21 2015 — that Marty McFly travels to in “the future” in the second film in the series. As part of the anniversary celebrations, this new “making of” volume came out in early 2015, written by Caseen Gaines. This is one of the better “behind the scenes” filmmaking volumes I’ve read in recent years, mainly because Gaines did a tremendous amount of research, and managed to interview a large number of folks responsible for the trilogy’s success. This book covers all three films, with a strong emphasis on the first film in the trilogy, and all the details that had to come together to make it happen. Did you remember that Michael J. Fox wasn’t the first actor hired to be Marty McFly — no, that honor went to Eric Stolz (Mask), who was “let go” early in the filming, when it became clear he wasn’t giving the filmmakers what they wanted in the role! Learn about how difficult it was to work with a DeLorean car as Doc Brown’s time machine. Find out more details about why Crispin Glover did not reprise his role as Marty’s dad, George McFly in the sequels. Cringe at the description of stunt work gone awry! Hear from the actors about the impact that BTTF has had on their lives and careers! Truly a fun read, especially for anyone with a soft spot for this terrific film series.Originally reviewed for my libraries' "Staff Recommendations" web pages in November 2015 -- original page address: http://lincolnlibraries.org/bookguide/staff-recommendations/staff-recommendation... Meh. It was interesting, I suppose, but not a good "listening" book. I never could decide if it was a poor narrator or simply poorly written. It didn't help much that I thought it to be a fantastic movie with two boring sequels. I had had no idea there were so many casting problems, and rather horrified to hear the stunts were performed, basically, without a dress rehearsal.The amount of money we spend at the box office is obscene. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I love the Back to the Future trilogy. It will forever be one of my all-time favorites. I remember being ten, and having just seen Part II in the theater, playing hoverboard in my room by balancing on a plank of wood atop two pillows. To this day I quote all three movies with such regularity that it no doubt borders on annoying.If this were nearly any other popular movie, even one I watch frequently, I would grow bored with a behind-the-scenes account on the magnitude that Caseen Gaines brings to this book. But for some reason I cannot get enough when it comes to Back to the Future. All the micro trivia, all the anecdotes, all the Did You Know?s—it's a way of celebrating the magic over and over again. My favorite bit of story trivia (not mentioned in this book): Did you know that for part of the day on November 12th, 1955, there were 4(!) Deloreans in Hill Valley? Can you place them all? keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Long before Marty McFly and Doc Brown traveled through time in a flying DeLorean, director Robert Zemeckis, and his friend and writing partner Bob Gale, worked tirelessly to break into the industry with a hit. For the first time ever, the story of how these two young filmmakers struck lightning is being told by those who witnessed it. We Don't Need Roads includes original interviews with Zemeckis, Gale, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Huey Lewis, and over fifty others who contributed to one of the most popular and profitable film trilogies of all time.With a focus not only on the movies, but also the lasting impact of the franchise and its fandom, We Don't Need Roads is the ultimate book for anyone who has ever wanted to ride a Hoverboard, hang from the top of a clock tower, travel through the space-time continuum, or find out what really happened to Eric Stoltz after the first six weeks of filming.
