:) Are you a big fan? Are they planning on releasing another one, or a re-make?

Somehow, after the first Back to the Future (which I *loved* and watched in the theatres and rented a gajillion times as a young teen) I didn't really follow the series.

But those BTTF sequels always seem to be on TV when I'm traveling in Europe! I think I've watched the entire series in German at least three times.

For me, classic scifi authors like Ray Bradbury have always seemed way more on point in their future world-building.

It would be fun to compare a bunch of different book and film visions, actually.

I'm not a supper fan, but enjoy the movies, now my eleven year old son that's another story hes seen each one probably ten times in the last 2 years,

it doesn't sound like they are going to make a fourth one but there are some fake "Back to the Future lV" trailers on youtube (my kids begged me to check last night)

I think they did a decent job guessing at what the future might hold, they even had voice automation, although it looked like each device had there own microphone and voice recognition software

here's a lifehacker (http://lifehacker.com/live-like-marty-with-this-real-life-back-to-the-future-1737797479) article that talks about some of the tech in the movie that does actually exist today
