The Ultimate Back to the Future Quiz | Movies

Answer: Strickland

Marty sees Strickland in the school when he goes with Doc Brown in search of his parents. He comments that Strickland doesn't have hair even back in 1955.

Answer: Libyans

The Libyans want a bomb in exchange for their plutonium but Doc gives them "a shoddy bomb casing full of used pinball machine parts". This causes them to come and find him at the mall when he is there demonstrating the time machine to Marty.

Answer: Riverside Drive

Doc Brown used to have a large house with an estate attached, however, over the course of his experiments he has had to sell bits off for financial reasons. By 1985, he lives in what used to be the garage. Marty does not know where to find Doc in 1955 as street names have been changed.

Answer: False

Lorraine was played by Lea Thompson. Elizabeth Shue took over from Claudia Wells to play Jennifer in the second film in the trilogy.
When Lorraine is young in 1955, she drinks, smokes and is somewhat promiscuous much to Marty's surprise. At the beginning of the film, she says that she never led a boy on when she was a teenager.

Answer: Black Coffee

Although he ends up with a black coffee, Marty does not actually specifically order this. He asks for a Tab and a Pepsi Free which causes confusion for Lou as these drinks were not around in 1955. Finally after ordering "something without any sugar" Lou gives him a coffee.

Answer: L

On the side of Doc Brown's lorry, it says that his name is Doc Emmett L. Brown. No middle name was ever given to Doc Brown.

Answer: True

The family have just bought their first television and are watching it as they eat their dinner. Marty remarks that he has seen the episode that they are watching before in a rerun, but the Baines family have no idea what a rerun actually is!

Answer: Science Fiction Theatre

This inspires Marty to dress up as an alien to persuade George to ask Lorraine out to the dance. Marty claims to be Darth Vader from the planet Vulcan.
George is a big fan of science fiction and even writes some of his own stories. This shocks Marty as he does not see his father in a creative light.

Answer: Purple

Lorraine remarks that she has never seen purple underwear before. She also believes that he is called Calvin Klein as this is what is written on his underwear. Throughout the film, she refers to him as Calvin or Cal on many occasions.

Answer: Tannen

Biff Tannen is played by Thomas F. Wilson and is eventually knocked out by George at the dance after he gets a little too close to Lorraine. When Marty goes back to 1985, he is working cleaning George's car, a total transformation to the mean character he was before George taught him a lesson.
