I absolutely love this movie and its sequels. So, thank you so much for watching and reacting to it, allowing for me to watch it again with you. I love both Marty and Doc of course. They're hilarious. But I also love George McFly from 1955. He was so cute and sweet, and strange, but lovable. :) As for George hiring Biff to work for him in the end... First, it's mostly meant to show us the difference in their characters from how they were with one another in the beginning, to how they were with one another in the end, to help add to just how much George's life has changed for the better upon becoming brave to stand up to Biff, and how much Biff's life changed somewhat for the worse upon being shown up by the school's biggest nerd. In a way... it's poetic justice to see them become the polar opposites of one another. And second... if you look at it as you have and see it as George hiring the man who sexually assaulted his wife, then I feel that maybe it's because they live in a small town where there are few mechanics and perhaps Biff might have been the only one available to come out to work on their car. It was never in the accident, but perhaps there might have been other issues with it that required George to call him out to work on it. Plus... it appears Biff's personality changed so much to the point that he came to respect George and want to be his and Loraine's friend, or maybe he was just so worried about being punched out again or worse, that Biff wanted to do everything for George so he wouldn't be bullied like he bullied George. I agree it seems strange that they would have any kind of relationship with the man who sexually assaulted Loraine. Nowadays, it so wouldn't be the case. People today are so easily offended. Don't get me wrong... what Biff did to Loraine and to George is terrible and despicable. I am not condoning him in any way, shape, or form. But I think that in those days, people were for the most part more forgiving and kinder towards one another. It was simply a different time in the world. My favorite moments are both times when Marty and Doc work together to get the car ready for time travel, and seeing Marty travel through time both in the beginning and in the end. I also absolutely love seeing George render Biff unconscious in order to save Loraine. And then that kiss... I absolutely love the moment when Marty is fading away and pleads with George to find the courage one more time to kiss his mother, and then George knocks the second bully down and both he and Loraine kiss. So beautiful. So much is riding on that kiss between them, and it was absolutely perfect. :) I truly hope that you will watch Back to the Future 2 and 3 as well, even if they don't win the polls. They are so good and just so much fun. :) These movies are among some of my favorite movies and I just love them. Christopher Lloyd is the perfect mad scientist and just so amazing. And Michael J. Fox was phenomenal in this movie. I love them!!! Thank you so much again! I look forward to many more reactions from you. Until next time...

I just read in a Variety article where the writer for the film said they had based Biff on Trump lol
