    I'm looking at back to the future 2 right now, and unless they invent hover boards and flying cars in the next five years they were way off.

    No the Doc and Marty changed the future, the movie ruined hover boards by using a girly pink one and now nobody wants them anymore.

    In BTTF1 did Chuck Berry plagiarise himself or Marty McFly? Still stumps me this very day!

    We might be on course for the 3D shark but we'll probably have to wear 3d glasses.

    Maybe all these things have been invented. I believe the space time continuim has been disrupted and we are living in an evil parallel 2009. Its my firm belief that Michael O'Leary has a 737 time machine, and he went back to sometime around 1985 and the rest is history. :D

    I'm working on it damnit...
    The last prototype was involved in an "incident" a few years ago.

    I still can't believe the yanks bought that Al Qaeda excuse I gave them.

    When they've finished building all of the space hardware in 2001, I'm sure they'll catch up by 3010.

    Because of course that was the most improbable part of that Movie.
