back to the future

The ‘Back to the Future’ star has battled Parkinson’s disease for decades.

Where we're going, we don't need roads.

Whatever holiday you celebrate in December, it comes with a lot of pressure. If you get that special someone the wrong gift, watch out. Things can get pretty ugly. That’s particularly true for pop-culture fans. They know what they want, and they probably have most of it already. Perhaps you know someone like this. Perhaps you are someone like this. (Perhaps I am someone like this.)

I admitted it yesterday, I've watched "Back to The Future" once...maybe. The only thing I got from the movie was the awesome Hoverboards, the weird moment between Marty McFly and his mom and the sick Nike sneakers that tie themselves. Big screen tv's, video messaging and a few other predictions about the future came to be...

As any movie fan worth their salt will undoubtedly recall, Back to the Future Part II imagined a timeline in which we had hoverboards, automatic lace-up sneakers, futuristic Pepsi (more on that here), and…Jaws 19. Robert Zemeckis’ time-traveling sequel was almost eerily prescient in its imagining of the future of blockbuster franchises, and now there’s an official trailer for Jaws 19 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of one of the best film franchises in history.

As soon as the new year started we started to compare today to the movie "Back to the Future Part 2" because its in 2015. One thing that hasn't come true yet is the self-tying Nikes. But don't count that one out yet . . . because Nike is actually working on it...
