What would you like to see in " BTTF Predictions: Episode 2"?
As some of you may or may not know, Toneiiblue, Milkman08, SilverWolfPet, and I have started an "I wonder what happens"-like series for BTTF. Production for the next episode is starting soon, and I want to make it much better than the last one.
So, what do you all want to see? What do you think will happen? Any lines, characters, setting that you have to see? And, most important, any voices you want to do? Now I'm looking for a Kid Tannen, Arthur McFly, and Kid Tannen's goons. There is no set script yet, so I'll consider anything anyone comes up with!

marty could disguise himself as kid tannen and could do all kinds of crazy stuff, hitting on edna and so on.
I'm really liking the sound of this, Marty as Tannen could get a lot of laughs and would just be cool to animate. I was thinking of doing one joke kind of like this, but not really, based on a real misunderstanding I experienced involving BTTF.
At the end of your second short film, perhaps Doc can exclaim somthing similar to "Oh heavens! I dropped by note book back at my old house!" Then, before Marty can say too much, a duplicate DeLorean shows up and an estatic Doc and Marty exit this second vehical saying "Woo-hoo, we got the book back in time!" then the newly arrived Doc and original Doc can both say "Drat, I've seen myself again, I hate it when that happens."
Hows that for an ending eh?
Although that may work better in, say, the "Double Visions" episode, I do like the idea and love that last line.
Marty: Maybe I should just give up. Maybe the timeline won't be so bad without my dad or me.
Present-Day Doc: Think about it, Marty! If your Grandfather goes to prison instead of Kid, that means Kid's son leads a better life! One where he lives with his father! One without YOUR father!
[quick scene showing 1986 Biff's new successful life in a world even worse than 1985A from Part II - perhaps Biff rules the entire planet]
Marty: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Doc: Exactly.
The second episode seems like it will play out like the final third of the second movie where Marty and Doc have to go back to where they were before and fix things. Have to make sure that both Arthur McFly and Jennifer's grandfather don't die.
Thanks, Mathman77. It is nice to know that you thought about my idea.
I never was planning to show the alternate future from this timeline, but you are on to something. A future without McFlys and Biff leading a good life... now I have to involve that somehow!
Holy crap! I've just thought of the logical conclusion! Biff lives a normal but better life (a better version of his life at the start of the first movie)... and his daughter Tiff starts helping Doc instead of Marty!
And Doc, living a friendless life, builds a time machine and goes to 1931 to make sure his younger self has a friend in the future, causing the McFlys to carry on into the future. Huge paradox, but three Docs in the same place!
But that would result in Post-Movies Doc starting to fade away like Marty, since the fading of Marty has set Doc's past self from the hiring on an assistant onward on a new path. Fading Marty and Fading Doc could still set things right, which would cause Friendless Doc to fade away himself.
That could work, but it's probably better to keep things simple, with a brief sequence showing Better Life Biff and Doc's Assistant Tiff in an alternate world that isn't too bad but pisses off Marty ("Not on my goddamn watch!").
Ya, it was just an example. I could never pull of anything so complex.
Doc: Just imagine the effects on Biff's future!
(Marty imagines Biff depressed because he has no one to bully)
Marty: Eh, can't be that bad
Doc: But what about his daughter?
(Marty imagines Tiff in Twin Pines Mall, punching out Doc and stealing the Delorean)
Marty: ...Kid's going down.
Actually, that's given me another idea. If you ever show an alternate version of Twin Pines/Lone Pine mall, you could change the name and logo to something new to show how much history has been messed up. Like 'Three Pines Mall' or 'No Pines Mall'.
Just sayin'...just sayin'...
Don't worry. I'm mulling over the script/ creating backgrounds right now (I'll send some you some stuff tomorrow). I'm having a hard time trying to incorperate Young Doc, with the whole "can't be seen by past Marty" thing going on. He may only get one line, but I can promise it will be one of the funnier ones.
The town square and court house will definently be in the next episode. Marty's house may appear in another episode.
On a side note, I loved Marty's room in the game. The posters and small Sam and Max reference = brilliant. Animating that would be cool, even if I don't use it in the cartoons!
Doc: Marty! Marty! It's amazing, I've found the answer!
Marty: What answer!? To what question!?
Doc:I now know what the secret of monkey island is... The secret is... (episode ends)
This one made me smile. It's a great idea, but I probably won't use it. One idea for "Get Tannen" I had was to have Marty come up with the idea to get Arthur a good lawyer for court, and Stan from MI would have a brief cameo. There was no good reason for it, so I cut it out.
May not be the place to put this, but I totally agree.
He could get worse!?! It's a good idea, but may not happen in this episode. Something must happen to Kid Tannen, which could affect the future at a later point. He could become the new Hitler, killing all the buttheads in the world. No, too dark.
OMG! now that you say it, it feels like the entire series could have been built around that particular joke LOLOL!!
If I get the oppertunity, I'm using that line!
If any colaberators see this, the official script is coming tomorrow. I think I managed to put in a few suggestions from this forum, so thanks!
Oh, and still have no recorded lines for Kid Tannen...
Well, at least my favorite voice actor is excited.
This weekend shall be the release. The voiceovers are sent, the tracks have been mastered, the animator has got to hurry up and sync everything correctly.
I feel like I only post my progress here for my own strange reasons. No one cares about the progress, only the finished product! :rolleyes:
