    Sure, the Chuck Berry version of Johnny B. Goode is good, but let me tell you about the guy he stole it from ...

    Yeah, I guess so. But it did do an effective job of showing how the town bully was emasculated and turned into a complete suck-up chore boy. And, who knows, maybe the idea of updating Biff came late during filming, and that's the best thing they could come up with on the (mc)fly.

    What are your alternate ideas?

    Also, in November of 1955, John F. Kennedy was widely known. His PT-109 exploits had been publicized in many big publications years earlier...and he was the eldest living son of one of the most famous/infamous Americans of the era. (Profiles in Courage would be released eight weeks later).

    Marty's grandad should have known who he was!

    Huh. Whenever I heard it he was a Red Sox. I didn't know he lasted that long considering what he was dealing with.

    And also, Marty pays for the cup of coffee at the diner with 1985-era coins. If Lou or someone else looks at the years of the coins, that could be some sort of space time continuum problem. And Doc even semi-acknowledges this in other films when he has money from different years and says they have to be prepared for all monetary possibilities.
