Dragon King 15 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 If the delorean didn't exist what vehicle do you think they would have used in BTTF? And what do you think it would have looked like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 214 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 I would say maybe a Bricklin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flux Capacitor 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 The Bricklin didn't exist in the 1980s I think. And if there was no DeLorean, BTTF would never exist, because the DeLorean has the interior for the flux capacitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dragon King 15 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 Which is why i asked what do you think it would look like. The flux capacitor can be placed else where. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

archer9234 20 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 Pick any weird car that was available in 1984. It could be endless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BACKINTIME 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 well, not really, you should consider a few things, engine should be in back, just to give it the same feel. and you wand a lovable look, to encourage fans, it should "look" fast. even if it isn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EarthwormJim 1 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 like archer said, it couldv been ANY weird car from the 80s. they wouldnt have gone "oh oops the delorean doesnt exist better pick a car that looks similar so nobody will notice" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishy-Fish 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 Well, the original script of the thing was a guy traveling in a refrigerator... Then Steven Spielberg stepped in and said otherwise... But, yeah, it could've been any car.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K.I.T.T. 2 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 they said the only reason they used the delorean was for the doors, and only one other cars at the time had gullwing doors, were the 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300SL, which would have been pointless to use, and the Bricklin SV-1, which i dotn think would have really had the same effect, but it is possible they could have used it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edfake 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 i have the limited edition bttf colection (complete with bonus disk!!) and they said to use the delorean because of the 'futreistic look' and because they wanted it to be cool, with style. the delorean fitted that at the time. they also said the 'frezzing' is because: we use cooling towers for normal neuclear reactors. the bttf1 was neuclear. this is where the freezing idea came from!!

Ziero 4 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 That and because it goes through the wormhole and leaves the fire trails, the opposite is cold/frozen so it only makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EarthwormJim 1 Report post Posted January 30, 2009 you dont need to watch the bonus features to figure the goin in hot comin out cold thing. it seemed pretty obvious to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
