Line #12 Trivia/BackToTheFutureTheGame


1	* ActingForTwo:
2	** In addition to playing Marty, AJ [=LoCascio=] also plays Leech in Episode 3.
3	** George [=McFly=] and his father Arthur are both played by Michael Sommers.
4	** In addition to voicing Biff Tannen prior to the 30th anniversary edition, Andrew "Kid Beyond" Chaikin voiced Cliff and Riff Tannen.
5	** Daniel Parker and his son Danny are voiced by Mark Barbolak.
6	** Creator/RogerLJackson voices Judge Erhardt Brown, Ernie Philpott, Hampton and Cueball Donnely.
7	** Kid Tannen and his ancestor Beauregard Tannen are voiced by Owen Thomas.
8	** Creator/MichaelJFox voices William [=McFly=] as well as the three future versions of Marty.
9	** In addition to reprising Doc and his alternate self Citizen Brown, Creator/ChristopherLloyd also voices the French diver whom Citizen Brown impersonates.
10	* CrossRegionalVoiceActing: Voice actors from both the San Francisco Bay Area and the Los Angeles area were used for the game.
11	* DawsonCasting: Claudia Wells, who was in her mid 40s at the time, reprises her role from the original movie as teenage Jennifer.
12	* DevelopmentGag:
13	** Not a gag relating to the development of the game, but to ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII''. In Episode 1, Marty can find an old photograph of Marshall Strickland in Edna Strickland's home. Edna states that he had been shot and killed by Buford Tannen. Marty (who, of course, had been to 1885 when Strickland was alive and who was instrumental in Buford being sent to prison) states that he doesn't remember that occurrence. While there's an in-story reason for this (he wasn't there when it happened nor informed of the events), the line is actually a meta-reference about how the scene depicting Strickland's death was cut from the film. You get a trophy in the [=PS4=] version for finding this out.
14	** Episode 1 references a gag from the aborted Script/NumberTwo script, wherein Marty is arrested, and chooses the alias "Marty [=DeLorean=]" to get Doc's attention through the newspapers. In the video game, however, it's the other way around: Doc is arrested, and chooses the alias "Carl Sagan" to get Marty's attention through the newspapers.
15	** In Episode 3, George has a box of peanut brittle on his desk by the monitors. This refers to a deleted scene in the original ''Back To the Future'' where George displays what a wimp and ExtremeDoormat he is by being bullied into buying tons of peanut brittle. The [[OrphanedReference only remnant]] of this in the final film is a shot of him pouring some into a bowl.
16	* TheOriginalDarrin:
17	** After she was replaced by Creator/ElisabethShue for the last two movies in the original trilogy and Creator/CathyCavadini in the animated series, Claudia Wells reprises the role of Jennifer Parker from the first movie for the game.
18	** Creator/ThomasFWilson returns as Biff Tannen for the 30th anniversary edition of the game, [[TheOtherMarty replacing]] Andrew "Kid Beyond" Chaikin's recordings.
19	** While Creator/ChristopherLloyd portrayed Doc in live-action segments on ''WesternAnimation/BackToTheFuture'', his voice was provided by Creator/DanCastellaneta. Here, Lloyd once again voices Doc.
20	** [=A.J. LoCascio=] voices the main teenaged Marty for the majority of the game, but Creator/MichaelJFox returns as three alternate timeline middle-aged Martys at the end of episode 5, which marks the first time he played Marty since the movies, as Creator/DavidKaufman took over for the animated series.
21	* TheOtherMarty: The [[Platform/PlayStation4 PS4]][=/=]Platform/XBoxOne version has Tom Wilson [[RoleReprise reprise]] his role as Biff Tannen from the movies, having been [[TheOtherDarrin Darrin'd]] by Andrew Chaikin in the original release of the game. Chaikan's recordings for Cliff and Riff Tannen were retained however.
22	* RefittedForSequel: Gale suggested the Prohibition era and the young Doc Brown story for the first episode, proposed elements Gale and Robert Zemeckis tried but ultimately discarded while drafting ''Back to the Future Part II''.
23	* RoleReprise: Creator/ChristopherLloyd as Doc Brown and Claudia Wells as Jennifer Parker. In the last episode, [[spoiler:Creator/MichaelJFox plays the three future versions of Marty that appear at the end]]. Creator/ThomasFWilson also comes back as Biff Tannen, for the 30th anniversary rerelease.
24	* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
25	** Biff's daughter Tiff was originally going to appear in Episode 3, but with Punk Jennifer there it was decided she was redundant. There is artwork of her [[http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121028065632/bttf/images/9/9f/Tiff_Tannen.png here]], and she eventually showed up in the comic book adaptation of the game.
26	** There were plans to give Doc and Edna a kid, but they decided against it, due to the ethical ramifications of erasing a person from the timestream.
