I bet '77 wouldn't be as good as I remember. Bad clothes. Hairy beavers. No answering machines yet (I think). Not much in the way of good TV. No video of any kind yet. But in the plus column, no AIDS, eager girls and loose morals.
 
Before you leave for 77 don't forget to write down the lotto number for day after you arrive.

Where? Did they have lotto in states like they do today? I don't think so.


I think I'd get a job in TV. I'd call them and tell them which shows were going to be hits and which would bomb. After about two seasons I bet I'd get hired at a huge salary. I could do the same for the studios as a consultant. Sports teams too. Politics, yes. Hell... I'd be world renown as the Nostradamus of the day.

But my very existence could change time forever. If I told them to green-light Back to the Future and it got made even a second before it actually happened, the whole thing could change and fail.

I might actually only be able to make predictions of things coming soon or already in motion, like calling a coin toss -- no long-range predictions.
 
Speaking of going back and time as it relates to Star Wars:



:lol


lolololol so awesome

Scratch cards in the 70's

National lottery in 1985.

I still haven't watched that movie, should I?

The first time I watched it (halfway) I just didn't get it. I thought: what is this lame ass movie. Then I gave it another go... and it just clicked. Somehow I "got it". And it was hilarious. My girl and I watched it constantly for months.

Not sure what to tell you. Your mileage may vary. But if it clicks, its really funny. If it don't, it can be painful to watch.
 
Yeah for me Napoleon Dynamite was largely a "huh?" experience until it was over and my then wife and I just couldn't stop referencing it and laughing about it after the fact. When we watched it again (and again and again) we found it hilarious from beginning to end.
 
Napoleon Dynamite is the most quotable and enjoyable, yet utterly incoherent movie I've ever seen, there's almost no singular story line, it almost feels like a series of Saturday Night Live skits using the same characters.

The guy who plays Pedro is also hilarious in Employee of the Month and the Crank movies.
 
If you had the chance to be brought back to 1977 a month before SW release with no way to return back to the present would you take it?

You would still possess all of your current memories and awareness.

What would you do.

I'd pass. I'd rather stay in the present and just stop ageing.

Absolutely.

What would you do.


I wouldn't be going to see Star Wars on opening day, that's for sure.

1. invest in things I know will be successful
2. steal ideas and inventions before the trends for them even occur, make money off them (the 21st century would have my name all over it)
3. be a billionaire by the 90s
4. become a filmmaker/scriptwriter in my spare time (and just "steal" all the successful films and make them mine, with Jye being my personal assistant)
5. pound prime Carrie Fisher before she goes to rehab
6. buy Star Wars off of uncle George post ROTJ
7. make sure nobody makes another Star Wars movie as long as I live
8. do the same thing to Marvel when they're vulnerable before the 2000s
9. run for president after I'm done doing everything I wanted to do
10. build a luxurious under ground bunker
11. get the codes and press the button when I'm bored
12. live out the rest of my days Mad Max style with my harem and milk women


Assuming I'm still born in the new timeline, I'd steal myself from my parents and raise myself as my protege.

With all this you could pretty much become the inspiration for Back To the Future II's story and the film could remain completely unchanged.
 
Yup! Except, I'd be making the Back to the Future films in this alternate post 1977 universe. It would be credited to me. Sure, I'd make sure all the original actors and crew were hired (as well as Zemeckis and Co.), but it would be under my name.


Also, Cameron wouldn't even be a thing. He'd still be truck driving. Terminator would be mine. You'd be buying Terminator figures from my films and doll company (and you would have every character, from the bum in the alley in T1 to Enrique).
