10 de oct. de 2020 · Published Oct 10, 2020. In Back to the Future, Marty McFly and Doc Brown are the best of friends, but it took decades to finally reveal how the two became such good friends. One of the most beloved aspects of the 1985 classic, Back to the Future, is the dynamic between the teenage Marty McFly and the wacky yet brilliant Doctor Emmett Brown.
Set in 1985, it follows Marty McFly (Fox), a teenager accidentally sent back to 1955 in a time-traveling DeLorean automobile built by his eccentric scientist friend Emmett "Doc" Brown (Lloyd), where he inadvertently prevents his future parents from falling in love – threatening his own existence – and is forced to reconcile them and somehow ...

—Marty McFly's catchphrase
"NOBODY CALLS ME CHICKEN!"
—Marty’s catchphrase when someone calls him a chicken or yellow belly
"One student [Marty], the most daring and enterprising of the [social studies] class, listened to stereo rock music. His eyes were nearly closed and his limbs had to struggle to remain still rather than follow along with the beat, but he gladly accepted this limitation as his lips quietly formed the words of the song."
—From Back to the Future by George Gipe (quote, page 2)
Early life
Marty was born on June 12, 1968 in Hill Valley, California to George and Lorraine McFly. He was the youngest of three children. He had a brother Dave, who was born in 1963, and sister Linda, who was born in 1966. During the first couple years of his life, Marty had a very strong bond with his maternal uncle Joey Baines, and loved spending time with him, which regularly involved Marty jumping from a great height and Joey catching him. The family attributed their connection to Joey's own lack of maturity, as he was only 14 years older than Marty and acted as a troublemaker with the rest of the family. On the night of June 23, 1972, Marty was playing with Joey past his bedtime until they were interrupted by Lorraine, which subsequently led to an argument that resulted in Joey storming out of the house, telling a crying Marty that the world was tough and that he had to get used to it. Distraught, Marty tried to run after Joey, who then turned around and ordered him to stop, telling Marty to be careful when crossing the street due to bad drivers. As Marty tried to convince Joey to not leave, Lorraine came outside and chastised Marty for leaving the house. After Lorraine failed to convince Joey to tell her about the bad group of people who had influenced him into stealing car parts, Joey told an upset Marty to listen to his mother, as he considered her to perhaps be the only good person in the world, and then left. Falling asleep, Marty was carried back into the house by Lorraine. Later that night, Joey was arrested for breaking into the house of Mrs. Ellsworth, following which $85,000 was discovered to be missing. Due to his refusal to give up any accomplices, Joey was incarcerated in Folsom Prison. Missing his uncle, Marty later bragged about uncle's actions in kindergarten, although he exaggerated the details. However, this resulted in him being chastised by his kindergarten teacher, who stated that what happened to his uncle was nothing to be proud of. Notable events in Marty's childhood unclude the time he set the living room rug on fire when he was eight years old and that he got a scar on his left knee from skateboarding down the courthouse steps when he was twelve. When Marty was still a child, his grandfather Arthur refused to take him to the zoo, which as a teenager, Marty recalled as a negative experience. Marty met his future girlfriend Jennifer Parker in elementary school, although they became less acquainted after the fourth grade. When Marty was fifteen, he snuck out of the McFly residence one evening and set off on his skateboard to meet his friends. However, his mother heard the sound of the skateboard and went after Marty in the family Chevrolet Nova. At one point, Marty became acquainted with Douglas J. Needles, who would frequently goad him into doing foolish things. Eventually, Marty became the lead guitar player of his band, The Pinheads, and dreamed of one day becoming a rich and famous rockstar.[citation needed]
Marty was an easy-going adolescent most of the time. In the first film, he had a bit of a habit of disregarding adults. However, Marty is a well-intentioned, kind, loyal, and music-loving teenager. He was not the best student academically. His grades were fairly good, but he had a tendency to be late for school. This was not always his fault, however, as shown when Doc set all his clocks 25 minutes slow, causing Marty to show up late for school. Marty is a very loyal guy. He constantly sticks up for the little guy when asked for help. He is also very steadfast to Doc Brown, as a number of adults, including his parents, have said he's very risky to be around, but Marty says that he really is not.
Marty played lead guitar with The Pinheads and liked listening to Huey Lewis and the News and Eddie Van Halen. He was also a talented skateboarder. Marty was also shown to be good at singing, as shown in his performance of "Johnny B. Goode" at the Enchantment Under The Sea Dance.
George McFly
Marty has a strained relationship with George in the original 1985. Marty seems both irritated and embarrassed by his father, particularly about the fact that George can't stick up for himself (especially against Biff). Seeing his father's car wrecked by Biff upon heading back home from school, Marty, who planned a date with Jennifer for weeks and needed the car for the date, exclaims, "The car, Dad, the car! Do you know who important this was for me? Do you have any clue?" George is unable to protect himself, meekly stating, "Biff just happens to be my supervisor, and I'm just no good at... confrontations." In 1955 their relationship is somewhat similar, with Marty continuously becoming exasperated at George's timidness, even muttering out loud, "Jesus, it was a wonder I was even born," in front of George (who was not paying careful attention and doesn't quite hear). To his shock, however, Marty learns something about his father he never knew: George loved to write science fiction. When Marty asks to read what his father has written and suggests that he publish his stories, George refuses on both accounts, saying, "What if they said I was no good? I don't think I could take that kind of a rejection." Stunned, Marty realises that he himself had said those exact same words earlier, and slowly begins to realise that he and his father are not so different after all. After working with George and coming up with a plan to reunite his parents at the high school dance, George finds confidence in himself he never knew he had when he knocks Biff out in a single punch while protecting Lorraine. Marty, delighted and amazed, states, "I never knew he had it in him! He's never stood up to Biff in his life!" After returning to the future, Marty finds that George is entirely different than he would have been in the original 1985: confident, suave, and a successful writer, having written a successful novel A Match Made in Space, which was clearly inspired by the events in 1955.
Lorraine Baines
In the original 1985, Marty was also somewhat standoffish with his mother. He was listening, bored as she endlessly told the story of how she and George met. She smoked and drank heavily, resulting in her being slightly overweight, and acted weary and somewhat bitter towards her children. She openly disapproved of Jennifer, constantly telling Marty when she was young, she never pursued a boy in any way, and that any girl who pursued a boy was bad news. In 1955, Marty ends up in the bedroom of Lorraine's house (As evidenced by her saying "Over there, on my hope chest") by "saving" George McFly from Sam Baines' car, inadvertently swapping places with his father and becoming the object of Lorraine's interest (setting up the events of the first film). Marty is stunned to find that his mother in 1955 is a far cry from his mother in 1985: she's very thin, attractive, and to Marty's horror, very flirty towards him, which contradicts her earlier statements about girls chasing boys. Later, when Marty has dinner with the Baines, he awkwardly stumbles over his words, which Lorraine finds to be endearing and cute. When Lorraine suggests that Marty spend the night in her room (under the guise that it would be dangerous to send Marty home late at night with a head injury) she squeezes his thigh under the table, causing Marty to freak out and abruptly depart. Throughout the film, Marty is repeatedly shocked to find out Lorraine is completely different from who he thought she was. Lorraine flirts with boys around her school (except Biff, whom she despises), and he is especially shocked to find that she smokes and drinks--this flirtatious, attractive, rule-breaking woman is almost a completely different person than his weary, overweight, oppressive mother in 1985. Even worse, Lorraine has become hopelessly in love with Marty (instead of George), much to Marty's disgust and alarm. Throughout the first film, Marty attempts to turn Lorraine's affections back to George on numerous occasions, but Marty's actions--such as using an impromptu skateboard to escape Biff--only serve to increase her infatuation with him. After successfully fixing the timeline and reuniting George with Lorraine, Marty returns to 1985. Upon his return, Marty finds that Lorraine is wildly different from her original 1985 self. She is much more fit, is no longer an alcoholic, and does not smoke. She and George are members of the tennis club and have a healthy, flirtatious relationship, and their marriage seems to be perfect. Marty has a much closer relationship with his mother in the new timeline. In addition, Lorraine approves of Jennifer and is thrilled about Marty going up to the lake, much to Marty's bewilderment (and relief).
"Doc" Emmett Brown
Despite their age difference, Marty and Doc are very close friends and place a high level of trust in one another. They both become irritated with one another at times, with conflict often arising from Marty's casual, rule-breaking attitude towards time-travel compared to Doc's strict, "don't-touch-anything" type of attitude. Despite occasionally quarreling, they are both deeply steadfast towards each other, often risking their lives (and the space time continuum itself) to save each other from danger.
•Marty McFly was a streetwise video pirate in the Back to the Future first draft screenplay, running a secret black market operation with Professor Emmett "Prof" Brown. This was dropped from the final version as Universal Studios refused to make a movie where the hero was a video pirate.
•Although Marty McFly is 17 years old as of October 25, 1985, his birthday is not referred to in the film series. Novelty items, such as a California driver's license in Marty's name, often include a birthday of "06-12-68" and an address "9303 Lyon Drive", neither of which is mentioned elsewhere. There are different versions of the "license" that have been manufactured, as can be seen on sites such as eBay. June is a logical choice for a novelty license, since the photo is of actor Michael J. Fox, who was born on June 9, 1961.
•If Marty's birthday has ever been thought of at all, it was when Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis wrote an early draft for a sequel to Part I. In that script, Marty mentioned that his birthday was June 20, 1968. The plot point became important when Marty traveled to September 20, 1967, nine months before his birthday, and again put his existence in danger. As with Marty's middle name (which was "Hopkins", rather than "Seamus", in the draft script), the idea was dropped before filming.
•Eric Stoltz was originally cast to play the role of Marty McFly. Fox was the first choice of Zemeckis and Gale, but was committed to NBC's hit television show, Family Ties. When the show's producer, Gary David Goldberg, was approached in 1984, he was not willing to let Fox appear in a movie while also shooting Family Ties. After Zemeckis and Gale had filmed a large portion of the scenes with Stoltz, and were not happy with the results, they approached Goldberg again. Goldberg agreed to let Fox work on both the show and the film at the same time, with the condition that the show had to come first.
•A draft script for the first film states that a couple of years ago Doc turned up at Marty's garage one day and offered him $50 a week, plus free beer and use of his record collection, to clean his garage. This explanation is not accepted by most fans, however, as it contradicts the characterizations of Marty and Doc we see in the finished film. Co-writers Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale say they once considered expanding on their relationship, but decided against it, reasoning that children and adolescents are often attracted to eccentric or mysterious neighbors.
•Ralph Macchio (actor known for his roles in The Outsiders and in the first three The Karate Kid movies) was turned down for the role of Marty.

25 de oct. de 2020 · Back to the Future's Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) and Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) are one of the most iconic duos in cinemas, and here's how they became unexpected friends in the first place.
