Back to the Future

Anyone else pick up the trilogy on DVD? I thought it was a great buy. The movies were a lot of fun (although I found the third one a little tired), and there's tons of extra features.

A lot of the deleted scenes are really quite funny, although you can see why a few of them were deleted (especially the scene from the third movie where Tannen shoots the Sheriff in the back...that wouldn't have been a downer in the movie).

A lot of critics seem to slag the second movie, but I thought it was a really creative idea how they incorporate scenes from the first movie into the second one, but from a different perspective.

The DVD also has a FAQ that tries to answer actual questions that people wrote in about minor inconsistencies in the plot and/or time travel theories. It's funny, mainly because it's hard to believe that there are so many people that would write in about silly little details in a fictional movie

Hhmmm, maybe I should have bougt the dvd after all. I bought the three movies used on vhs for 90 Kroner ($12.6) for all of them and the dvd box (as new) costed 319 Kroner ($44.7), and I thought that was a little too expensive.
I think the first two are great, the first one being a little better than the second. The third was also cool, but not as good as the two first, but still cool!

I want to get the trilogy on DVD, some time. I do love the movies. Them and Waynes World I'm out to get in box set form

I saw it the other day and almost bought it.

Was it worth the purchase?

I bought the trilogy about a week ago. They are fun movies to watch. I think it was worth it, I paid about $44.

Yeah, definately worth the purchase for me. My wife and I watch the trilogy fairly frequently and there are a lot of special features. As I said before, the deleted scenes are actually worth watching (as compared to some movies where you can obviously see why they were deleted). I'm not one for director commentary, but I did find it interesting to watch the commentary on selected parts of the 2nd movie to find out how they worked the 1st movie in the background.
