I feel really bad for who ever is going to read through all these posts for ideas to the next season of bttf

Good luck to that intern!

I don't think Telltale would make a second season so blindly though. They might glance over a few ideas, sure, but I think they'd have a basic idea of where they want to go before season two gets created.

Not to mention, about half of the posts are agreeing with an idea already said and/or talking about the idea of time travel within the movies. Less to sort through.

Admit it....You all want Marty to go to a realistic future just to say "It's 2015 & still no flying cars."


Just finished watching the B2tF trilogy, & remembered why I never liked the 3ed movie. I hope that if there is a 2ed season that it also does not include Clara Clayton as anything more than a mentionable. She ruined part 3 for me & a few other complainers on the net....

1)She's 30 & 40 & she instantly falls head over heals for a senior citizen?
2)Doc is 70 or 80s. He's too old for relationships or sowing wild oats. & considering his age & lack of libido, he should statistically have been impotent at his age.
3)When 2 best friends get married & start families, they drift apart & maybe see eachother once a year.
4)2 things come to mind when I think of the relationship between Emmett & Clara; "contrived" & "Disney Romance."
5)She has no personality or past. She's a pointless token love interest. Her only contribution to the plot was filler; to make the 3ed movie just long enough.
6)Edna was a disagreeable selfish little hellspawn, but she had a backstory, a purpose, a complex personality. She was actually interesting. I prefer Doc as a bachelor, but I'd choose her over Clara anyway.

No I don't want a realistic 2015. That would only work for a reboot. I do want to see lot's of future jokes that relate to our present.

I'm enjoying season 1 that much I'm just hoping there will be a season 2 :-)

Thanks Telltale Games for making this great series!

Technically, he was in his 70's or 80's... but in his travels to the future, he went to a rejuvenation clinic and shaved about 20 years off of his body... thus having to put on an 'aged disguise' when returning to 1985 and peeling the disguise off again in 2015, revealing his 'rejuvenation treatment' to Marty.

Same situation, age and body-wise is BttF3.

By the time the game starts... Doc is in his 90's or 100's, Jules and Verne just entering college and Doc Brown's age beginning to show once again.

No, no I dont I want to go to maybe 2020 or 2030.

Also Clara had a purpose she causes the problem which has to be resolved, without her Doc would of got in the DeLorean and got to 1985 and it would of all been good but because she is there she comes on to the train, almost dies and has to be rescued by Doc which created much tension during the train scene.

Also even though it is just a film so I sound like a physco when I say this, I understood Docs pain when he had to leave Clara behind, so basically she creates a lot of emotion because you feel sympathy for Doc.

But yes Edna was a good character but it felt like she had been forced in because there was no indication in the film Mr Strickland had a sister.

Personnally I dont really want telltale to keep on with Edna in season 2 her moment of fame was season 1, most people have said they want to see Clara so instead of adding alternative versions of jennifer which dont look anything like her they could add characters fans want to see.

Clara inadvertantly adds to the conflict in the third film; think of how it would have played out without her; Doc and Marty decide on the plan to use the train to get back. Realizing Buford is after him, they would stay inside for the remainder. Doc likely only went to the festival so he could see Clara so without her there is no run in with tannen. Doc wouldn't have gone to the salloon so even if Tannen was still after him he wouldn't find him there. They'd get back to 1985, Doc would let the time machine get destroyed and his greatest invention may or may not go to waste- it's up to interpretation why he builds the time train. You could argue that he had another 'what the hell?' moment like he had in the first film and thus still would have built a second time machine had he returned to 1985. Some believe Clara inspired him. Or you could also argue he does it to get Einstein and see marty one more time.

Edna was a good choice. They did all they could with Biff in the first two films. She's also set up where she's a protagonist for the first 2 episodes and antagonist for the last 3. There was very little development of Strickland other than he hasn't had hair for minimum 30 years and he's from a long line of disciplinarians. The stricklands had already been established as antagonist and protagonists; Mr. Strickland is more of an antagonist towards the McFly's in the first 2 films but Marshall is a protagonist. That being said her character has run it's course. I'm thinking the tannens of the future could be the next villains.

I haven't been on in a while. Hows everyone doing? Are they making a season two?

So what's the point? Make a season 2 that's exactly the same, I mean do you really want that? There is fan fiction out there that is much much better and is brilliantly written.

Firstly I didn't see the point of setting the game in the 1980's, right after the events of BTTF 3. That may have made sense 20 years ago, but now? Give me a break.
It just seemed to me that TTG caved in to the fan demands of featuring teenage Marty and the Delorean even though it probably wasn't the best decision from a creative standpoint.

Marty is pretty much a developed character, and there is not much to work with there. The Delorean was destroyed, that particular vehicle's story is over. Sure, Doc can rebuild it, like he did in the Kristen Sheley fanfic. Later on the Delorean also got permanently destroyed and it was replaced with another model from the 2030s.
But coming up with a retarded justification that the car was duplicated when it was hit by lightning just to keep the damn car is insulting.

I don't even see why the game had to have Marty as a playable character at all; they could have used Jules and Verne as the main antagonists, who have grown up with time travel and for whom there are excellent opportunities for development.
Or the story could (should even) have branched out from our present time, and involved puzzles across time periods. Not just alternating between 1986 and 1931.

So unless TTG actually wants to touch on the BTTF universe and make changes they shouldn't even think about a second season.
But if they can make a good story that interacts with the BTTF world and involves time travel as a more central theme, then I'm interested.

ok that whole post was complete bullshit. definatly disagree

I can't believe theres so much love for Jules and Verne. You realize they were shown for about 30 seconds in the trilogy and neither had a line between them.

although verne did give a memorial perverted look and hand gesture lol.

agreed

This will sound crazy at first but bear with me, I'll try to make it make some sort of sense. Is it possible that the DeLoreans from the ending are all 2025 temporal duplicates? According to what we understand about the temporal duplication process (or so I believe), it allows the temporal duplicate to exist outside of the normal laws of the space-time continuum (or else the DeLorean would have faded out of existence along with LP Doc upon arrival in FCB-1986 since FCB had never had the inspiration to build a time-traveling DeLorean in the first place.)

Couldn't that therefore mean that if the future timeline is altered from a point in the past that does not also alter the creation of the temporal duplicate (by preventing the course of events that resulted in LP Doc's jump back to 1885 in BTTF Part II) that it would end up creating additional duplicates each time the future is changed? Because the previous duplicate would not cease to exist just because everything else in that version of 2025 did?

Now because every moment of the entire timeline is basically playing itself out simultaneously (even though the future can be overwritten) these DeLoreans are "immediately" recovered by a version of Doc or Marty in that respective timeline. So I'm thinking that somehow, and I'm still piecing this part together, that perhaps the temporal duplicate thus becomes trapped in its own timeline. So you have a temporal duplicate DeLorean in 2025-B, 2025-C, and 2025-D or whatever you want to call them (and possibly more besides all that.)

Now, because in time travel, one always has to travel back into the past which is basically set in stone (unless altered by time travel,) if Future-Marty-B, Future-Marty-C and Future-Marty-D all traveled back to 1986 (perhaps because they know this is the safest point since it directly follows the series of events which resulted in the creation of the temporal duplicates) we know that they would all inevitably wind up in the same 1986.

Essentially this could now be BTTF's crossover into alternate dimension theory. Season 2 might revolve around trying to find a way to get these Martys back to their own futures (since traveling back to 2025 from 1986 would result in all three alternate-dimension Martys arriving in the same 2025 as each other, in which only one is supposed to exist, and odds are that Marty is none of them. Or maybe the goal will be to go back to 1955 and somehow prevent the creation of the temporal duplicate in the first place, although this would also throw out everything that happened in Season 1, and perhaps even Back to the Future Part III if Doc and Marty aren't careful.

dont think this could happen as the timeline always catches up with itself like the car you start of with in the game is a duplicate but when edna crashes into the prison and marty says what do we do with the car and doc says nothing the timeline catches up with itself. Although i could of read your comment wrong and this comment might not make sence. "the results of which could be catastrophic" lol

I agree. Basically the poster is suggesting removing 2 of the 3 main characters from the trilogy (counting the delorean as a character) and forcing characters who had 30 seconds of screen time and no lines as the main ones. They clearly made this game as an animated sequel and did what Bob Gale would likely do if he ever did a part 4; Kept the 2 main characters and the time machine as well as follow Marty the entire time.

Here's my theory on how the 3 Marty's happens; the current timeline would have 3 different docs in 1931; they're not there at the same time but there's evidence that Old Docs travels to 31 still happen during the FCB timeline so presumably they could have all gone to the same moment. A similar thing likely happens with Marty in the future. I believe that the 3 marty's did battle for around 100 years in the future. Each time one wins, the other 2 go back before the point of divergance. They keep going back and back up until the earliest point they can; right after the return from 1931 (they cant go further back without upsetting that trip).

[yoman45135]

What Caeska said about not having marty and the delorean is ridiculous, BTTF is the delorean and marty without either of them there would be no bttf I dont want to be a perverted kid who points to his uh... 'stuff' travelling around in a time travelling cart.

The Delorean is almost a character, besides the explanation was great although it was a shame they could not make it some how be the real complete original delorean instead of a copy.

Well it pretty much is the same DeLorean from the first 2 films. Yes it's not exactly the same as the third one but in that film it's only used twice and it doesn't fly.

As I stated earlier, what Gale and co. needed to think when planning this game was 'if we were making a 4th film, what would it be about?' Clearly the fans would be far angrier if they went to a 4th film and saw no marty or delorean and coc pushed into the background than they would with the delorean back and a somewhat thin explanation for the DeLorean being there.
