Fanedit synopsis: Ever wonder how the adventures in Back To The Future would appear in the history books? Here it is, the chronological teleplay of each event in date order, splicing all three films into one huge epic!
Tagline: This has got to be a dream...
Basic details:
Original film name: Back To The Future Trilogy
New film name: Chronological Back To The Future
Original Runtime: 1hr 56min, 1hr 48min, 1hr 58min
New Runtime: 5hr 27min
Amount of time Cut/Added: about 4 min cut
Fanedit details:
Intention: While watching an interview in the special features of the trilogy, it was stated how the producers had an opportunity to go into the first movie in the sequel. Some time later, I wondered how Doc would have seen events happen, as he mostly lived them sequentially rather than time hopping. Due to the producers' over precision on timing of events, there is a clear chronology to the entire epic, right down to the minute. I wanted to present how everything would play out from earliest date to latest. I do think the 1885 opening is a bit slow, but once you hit 1955, it's amazing!
Editing Details: I really just watched all the movies, took notes on the clocks that appear from scene to scene that share dates with other scenes in other movies, then edited them together. The audio is of more interest in this edit, as several audio cues are different from the first to the second film; though I think they blend well.
Cuts removed/added/extended (add list of what was changed): There were a few parts cut, and some that just could not be removed, such as the titles of 1 and 3.
1) End of part 2, where Doc passes out, and the camera pulls back and up. This is replaced with the opening of part 3, which is a still on the ground shot. Unfortunately, the cut shot is much better dramatically; but it has "to be concluded" in huge letters.
2) End of part 1, where Doc returns from the future to 1985 to Marty's house and meets he and Jennifer. This scene is replaced by part 2's opening scene, which was reshot with actress Elizabeth Shue as Jennifer. This was for continuity, since she plays Jennifer for the rest of the show. My belief is that Marty's change of the past in 1955 had some slight ripples that changed Jennifer's appearance in 1985.
