    So fucking over seeing this headline every fucking week. The fans don’t want a BTTF 4. The filmmakers don’t want a BTTF 4. Just let it go. Nobody fucking cares. This is obviously a headline designed to tickle your member-berries and generate engagement just so that they can advertise the BTTF musical, something else that nobody cared for.

    Good, some things should be left as is and we have 3 to watch as it is.

    Try not make 2025 full of remakes and reboots please Hollywood.

    In the past, the two Bobs said it would happen ‘over their dead bodies’ and MJF asked an interviewer who inquired about a sequel ‘what would the new one do that we didn’t already do? There’s a beginning, a middle, and an end,’

      i don’t think back to the future itself exhausted the time traveling idea, but it has been done to death in movies and film in general. it’s very hard to make any time traveling movie interesting these days, so there’s really no reason to also tie it to BTTF except to cash in on the IP.

        I agree, and the juice is so rarely worth the squeeze, often taking multiple failed attempts to even get a mediocre entry. Nostalgia is not always a sure-fire tool to make money, as I hope studios and media will take to heart (but probably won’t).
