To Jomar: Well, it\'s [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] at least in \'\'BackToTheFuture Part 3\'\': After Doc Brown describes the plan to use [[SteamPunk a steam locomotive]] to get the DeLorian to 88 mph, he points out a seemingly innocuous wind vane which marks a rough point of no return insofar as there wouldn\'t be enough track at that point to slow the train down. [[spoiler:When they go to accomplish this, Doc\'s LoveInterest finally catches up to the train right about when said train passes said landmark.]]
