Super Mario Brothers was released closer to WWII than to today.
My guess is that the time machine would be a Pontiac Grand Am.
Doc breathes you made a TIME machine catches breath out of a CyberTruck?
Einstein explodes
Please for the love of all the gods do not give studio execs this idea or they’ll be scrabbling for a remake.
The original director and screenwriter aren’t allowing anyone to do a remake, so I guess we are safe as long as they are alive.

Marty would rap a bbno$ song that the kids wouldn’t be ready for.
This is a remake I’d watch.
Aaaaaaand blocked.
I think the difference is between how much things were chamging back then. The 50s were very different to the 80s. Technology changed completely and also the 80s were post-vietnam which caused huge changes in the culture. As for the 90s its all about digital technology and computers aaand so is today? Theres a reason for(at least for people arround me cause im gen z 💀) our grandparents being ‘technology shocked’ so much while our parents grew up sorta with the same stuff as us. Yes the access was different but my mom used to play pirated videogames on a computer at the library. That definitely wasnt a thing in the 50s. Thats my perspective at least. Also me being eastern european may influence this cause for us time and progression was locked for so long and the 80s freed all of it up.
1995-2005 was all about Chatrooms (AOL, IRC, AIM) and early social media. 2015-2026 is all about Chatrooms and social media being taken over by corporate interests, state actors, and political public opinion manipulation all posing as the AOL, IRC, AIM era.
In 1998, my father sent me to school with a pager you could leave voice messages on. My friends were amazed how advanced it was.
1996!
The movie this screen capture is from is so bizarre in a scary way (don’t want to give away the plot)
The Menu (2022)
Ralph Fiennes Anya Taylor-Joy Nicholas Hoult Hong Chau Janet McTeer Judith Light John Leguizamo“I told you weren’t leaving”
I fucking hate the ending.
“I want a cheeseburger.”
I’ll make you a very good, very traditional cheeseburger.
BTTF3 would just be the mid 1920s, which we haven’t seen yet, so that’s… something… right?
Marty went to 1931 in the Telltale game, which is close!
Would watch.
DELET
And then he’d be in the future of '56 where people are calling each other “choom” and solar power doesn’t work cause of all the dust and pollution in the sky, but people wear two neckties sometimes.
Sounds nova
Stop, stop, it’s getting too real!
fuck
The more important question, what car would be the one modified ti become a time machine?
In the category of “quirky and iconic but affordable sports car just a few years old at the time of the plot” there’s probably only one obvious choice for 1995: Mazda MX-5
Based on the stainless steel body requirements, I know the answer and I don’t like it.
If they remake BTTF with a Cybertruck we should burn down the movie studio
Yeah, remember Doc Brown’s reason for choosing the DeLorean was because, “If you’re gonna travel through time, you ought to do it in style”.
Cybertruck is not style unless you are a brain-rotted seven-year-old.
Maybe a Rivian? You’d have to come up with a different issue other than the car not starting, like the difficulty of charging it or something.
What car could they be referring…
stainless steel body…
AH FUCK YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH
Took me a second and I wish I hadn’t figured it out
I think about joke in the movie would be its supposed to be a cyberpunk, but the vehicle falls apart during a test run, so they use a Ford focus instead.
