Isn't there a horror-con that happens every year around that time?
^ So, that strikes me as more of a publicity stunt than anything right? We already know that many of the original movie cars have been restored and are well taken care of for years.
Are you sure Universal isn't doing anything? That's still about seven months away...who knows, maybe they'll surprise us.Well, Bob Gale is involved so that makes it more legit for me. This trailer below has also been released, and the documentary itself will release on Oct 21, 2015 (of course). Add to this the Royal Caribbean Back to the Future cruise and Secret Cinema bringing their Back to the Future special to the USA and it just goes to show that there are a lot of things happening with Back to the Future this year. It seems everyone is doing SOMETHING except Universal.

And this was in the parking garage the other day.
People must be booking rooms from the future!!! It would be cool if they had some panel and then also had the ride running on one of the theaters at Simpsons that day. How hard could it be. They must have the old ride profiles saved.
PS does anyone know the story behind this car? The Mr fusion was a donation jar and when u put money in it would play quotes from the movies.
I am very pleased they are doing this.

And this was no publicity stunt.
The car at the Scream awards was the replica built by my pals Sean Bishop and J Ryan, which is what lead to their involvement with the restoration of the "A" car. I thought I made that clear, but I guess not.

I'd like to second this statement. Although I don't think it needs to be as meticulous as the A car restoration. It might also be cool if they could fix it up as it appeared in the 3rd film. While I'm thinking about it, how about dressing the other side of the Time Train since you can now walk around it(yes, I know it's that way because the production only needed the one side).The car at usf is screen used. It was the car used for the train track scenes in the 3rd film. Its cool that they still have a screen used car but it's a pretty poorly done and could also use a proper restore.
I'm a huge bttf fan as well. But I also have to say it's odd that they are just now doing a kickstarter for a documentary on a project completed over 2 years ago.
Small world, Andy. I know Bishop and Ryan from when I met them on the Sony lot during the restore of the Ecto-1. Next time I see them I'll mention you.The car at the Scream awards was the replica built by my pals Sean Bishop and J Ryan, which is what lead to their involvement with the restoration of the "A" car.

Also, thank you Andy for your insight concerning your friend's car at the 2010 Scream Awards. I totally remembering watching that and I literally cried when Marty and Doc came out on the stage together. It was a touching moment.
