I consider Back to the Future to be a perfect movie. I get odd looks at times, but I seriously think it has one of the best scripts ever written. It works on every level and after many (many) rewatches, I can still find some element that I missed before.

I had never shown it to my 11-year-old. I’ve been waiting for the perfect moment. Well, a few sick days from school (Darth Vader came down from the planet Vulcan and melted his brain) gave me the opportunity. He ended up being out for three days, so naturally I showed him all three. Might as well give him the full experience.

Listen in as we discuss all three movies, time travel, and his favorite of the series (and the bad life choices he makes when ranking movies)!

I wasn’t fully prepared for the results. I know I need to let him make his own decisions but… having Part 2 as his favorite? It just doesn’t make any sense! Luckily, the power of love means I won’t disown him. Yet.
