Join us as we discuss our love for Back to the Future, its time travel rules, and quirks. We really didn't have to watch the movie again because we've seen it so many times... but of course we watched it anyway.
Back to the Future starred Michael J Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Chrispin Glover, and Thomas Wilson... to name a few.
