History Funny / BackToTheFuture

--->'''Sherman:''' It's already mutated into human form, shoot it!
--->'''Old Man Peabody:''' ''[fires a shotgun]'' Take that, you mutatin' son of a bitch!

-->'''Lou:''' ''[interrupting]'' Are you gonna order something, kid?!
-->'''Marty:''' Uh, yeah. Give me a Tab[[note]]The pre-1981 version of Diet Coke (though Coca-Cola continued to make Tab as a saccharin alternate to the aspartame-based (and more popular by 1985) Diet Coke).[[/note]].
-->'''Lou:''' Tab? I can't give you a tab unless you order something.
-->'''Marty:''' Okay, give me a Pepsi Free[[note]]The 1980s version of Caffeine-Free Pepsi[[/note]].
-->'''Lou:''' You want a Pepsi, pal, you gotta pay for it!

-->'''Marty:''' You're my muhh... you're my ''muhh''...
-->'''1955 Lorraine:''' My name is Lorraine. Lorraine Baines.
--->'''Marty:''' ''[with an audible squeak]'' Yeah!... but you're ''hooo''[[note]] hot[[/note]] ...you're so ''hooo'''aah''''', you're so... ''thin!''

--->'''Stella Baines:''' He's a very strange young man.
--->'''Sam Baines:''' He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too. Lorraine, if you ever have a kid like that, I'll disown you.

-->'''1955 Doc:''' Who's President of the United States in 1985?
-->'''Marty:''' UsefulNotes/RonaldReagan.
-->'''Doc:''' ''Ronald Reagan''? The ''actor''? Then who's Vice President? Creator/JerryLewis?! I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady! And Jack Benny is secretary of the treasury!

-->'''Marty:''' You know, [his EngineeredHeroics plan] is the kind of thing tha\\t could screw me up permanently. What if I go back to the future and I end up bein'... ''[[ValuesDissonance gay?]]''

--> "[[WhatAnIdiot Do the hoverboards really fly?]]" ''[[MST3KMantra It's a movie]]!'' Stop asking me the question!
--> "What does a producer do?" [[TakeThat ...I don't know.]] Stop asking me the question!

-->'''Linda:''' ''[aghast]'' That was so ''stupid!'' Grandpa hit him with the car!
-->'''Lorraine:''' ''[firmly]'' It was ''meant to be''.

--->'''Marty:''' Jesus Christ..! Jesus ''Christ'', Doc, you disintegrated Einstein!
--->'''Doc:''' Calm down, Marty. I didn't disintegrate anything. The molecular structure of both Einstein and the car are completely intact!
--->'''Marty:''' ...THEN WHERE THE HELL ''ARE'' THEY?!
--->'''Doc:''' The appropriate question is, "''When'' the hell are they?!" You see, Einstein has just become the world's first time traveler! I sent him into the ''future''! One minute into the future, to be exact! And at precisely 1:21 a.m. and zero seconds, we shall catch up with him and the time machine.
--->'''Marty:''' ''[{{beat}}]''...Wait a minute. Wait a minute, Doc. ''Ah''...Are you telling me you built a ''time machine''...out of a ''DELOREAN''?
--->'''Doc:''' The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some ''[[RuleOfCool style]]''?

-->'''Marty:''' Whoa. They really cleaned this place up! Looks brand-new.[[note]]In 1985, there will be graffiti around the entrance doors[[/note]]
-->'''Doc:''' Now, remember. According to my theory, you interfered with your parents' first meeting. If they don't meet, they won't fall in love, they won't get married, and they won't have kids. That's why your older brother's disappearing from that photograph. Your sister will follow, and unless you repair the damage, you'll be next!
-->'''Marty:''' Sounds pretty heavy.
-->'''Doc:''' ''[baffled]'' Weight has nothing to do with it!

--->'''Doc:''' No, the head goes first, I tell you!

--->'''Marty:''' Whoa, wait a minute, Doc, are you trying to tell me that my mother...has got the ''hots for me''?
--->'''Doc:''' Precisely.
--->'''Marty:''' Whoa, this is heavy.
--->'''Doc:''' There's that word again, "heavy." Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull?
--->'''Marty:''' ''[just as baffled as Doc]'' What?

-->'''Doc:''' Now, which one's your pop?
-->'''Marty:''' ''[with a grimaced expression, raises his arm, one finger pointed off-camera]'' ''That's'' him.
--->''[We see that he's pointing at Biff's gang, who are surrounding George, mercilessly kicking him as George cheerfully tries to go along with it and begs them to stop, due to a piece of paper taped to his back reading [[KickMePrank "KICK ME"]]]''
--->'''Doc:''' ''[with a somber expression on his face]'' Maybe you were adopted...
--->''[Strickland walks in as Biff's gang leave George a wreck]''
--->'''Strickland:''' [=McFly=].
--->'''Marty:''' Hey, that's Strickland! ''Je''-sus, didn't that guy ''ever'' have hair?
--->'''Strickland:''' Shape up, man! ''[tears the "Kick Me" sheet off George's back]'' You're a slacker! Do you want to be a slacker for the rest of your life?
--->'''George:''' No.
--->'''Doc:''' ''[dumbfounded]'' What did your mother ever ''see'' in that kid?
--->'''Marty:''' I don't know, Doc. I guess she felt sorry for him when her dad hit him with the car....hit ''me'' with the car. ''[rubs bump on the back of his head]''
--->'''Doc:''' That's the FlorenceNightingaleEffect. It happens in hospitals when nurses fall in love with their patients. Go to it, kid!

-->'''Marty:''' You know, [his EngineeredHeroics plan] is the kind of thing that could screw me up permanently. What if I go back to the future and I end up bein'... ''[[ValuesDissonance gay?]]''
-->'''1955 Doc:''' [[HaveAGayOldTime Why]] ''[[HaveAGayOldTime shouldn't]]'' [[HaveAGayOldTime you be happy?]]

-->'''George:''' Do you really think I ought to swear?
-->'''Marty:''' Yes, definitely. Goddammit, George, swear!

-->'''Marty:''' You know, this is the kind of thing that could screw me up permanently. What if I go back to the future and I end up bein'... ''[[ValuesDissonance gay?]]''

* Marty's little comment after he tries to get George to ask Lorraine out.

--->'''Marty:''' Your plan is instilling me with a lot of confidence, Doc.

* "Why don't you make like a tree... and [[{{Metaphorgotten}} get outta here]]."
** Strickland looking ready to intervene at any moment, only to be distracted by somebody throwing a paper plane.

--> '''Old Man Peabody''': My pine! Why you...''(shoots at the [=DeLorean=], misses and hits the mailbox)'' '''YOU SPACE BASTARD! ''YOU KILLED MY PIIIIINNNEEE!!'''''
** Even funnier when you look at the sign for the Twin Pines Mall (where Peabody's farm once stood) at the end of the movie - ''[[BrickJoke it is now called Lone Pine Mall!]]''

--> '''Sherman:''' It's already mutated into human form, shoot it!
--> '''Peabody:''' ''(fires a shotgun)'' Take that, you mutatin' son of a bitch!

-->'''Marty:''' Hello? Ah...excuse me? ''(points behind him awkwardly)'' Sorry about your barn. ''(BANG from shotgun, Marty stumbles back and trips)''
** [[RuleOfThree And before THAT,]] the timejump from 1985 to 1955. Crashing into a scarecrow? Funny. Marty screaming at the scarecrow, noticing he's about to crash into a barn, then starting screaming AGAIN? ''Hysterical''.
*** Not to mention Marty's radiation mask flipping down over his head, Buzz Lightyear style, before he crashes.
* When Marty and 1955 Doc go looking for Marty's father.
--> '''Doc''': Now, which one's your pop?
--> '''Marty''': (''with a grimaced expression, raises his arm, one finger pointed off camera. Doc looks'') ''That's'' him.
--> (''We see that he's pointing at Biff's gang, who are surrounding George, mercilessly kicking him as George cheerfully tries to go along with it and begs them to stop, due to a piece of paper taped to his back reading [[KickMePrank "KICK ME"]]'')
--> '''Doc''': (''with a somber expression on his face'') Maybe you were adopted...
-->''(Strickland walks in as Biff's gang leave George a wreck.)''
-->'''Strickland:''' [=McFly=].
--> '''Marty''': Hey, that's Strickland! ''Je''-sus, didn't that guy ''ever'' have hair?
-->'''Strickland:''' Shape up, man! ''[tears the "Kick Me" sheet off George's back]'' You're a slacker! Do you want to be a slacker for the rest of your life?
-->'''George:''' No.
-->'''Doc''': (''dumbfounded'') What did your mother ever ''see'' in that kid?
-->'''Marty:''' I don't know, Doc. I guess she felt sorry for him when her dad hit him with the car....hit ''me'' with the car. ''(rubs bump on the back of his head)''
-->'''Doc:''' That's the FlorenceNightingaleEffect. It happens in hospitals when nurses fall in love with their patients. Go to it, kid!
* "If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles an hour... [[SophisticatedAsHell you're gonna see some serious shit.]]"
** And Marty (understandably) freaking out at the car vanishing is hilarious to watch:
--->'''Marty:''' Jesus Christ..! Jesus ''Christ'', Doc, you disintegrated Einstein!
--->'''Doc:''' Calm down, Marty. I didn't disintegrate anything. The molecular structure of both Einstein and the car are completely intact!
--->'''Marty:''' ...THEN WHERE THE HELL ''ARE'' THEY?!
--->'''Doc:''' The appropriate question is, "''When'' the hell are they?!" You see, Einstein has just become the world's first time traveler! I sent him into the ''future!'' One minute into the future to be exact! And at precisely 1:21 a.m. and zero seconds, we shall catch up with him and the time machine.
--->'''Marty:''' ''({{beat}})''...Wait a minute. Wait a minute, Doc. ''Ah''...Are you telling me you built a ''time machine''...out of a ''DELOREAN?''
--->'''Doc:''' The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car, why not do it with some ''[[RuleOfCool style?]]''
** Marty initially seems dumbfounded about Doc making a time machine, but his last line almost makes him [[ComicallyMissingThePoint sound more concerned about what kind of car it is.]]
** And then it sounds like he's about to ask if he can borrow it so he can go to the lake with Jennifer.
** LOOK at Marty's face when Doc is going over "when the hell" Einstein and the [=DeLorean=] have gone to. His amazingly confused/"what the flying fuck just happened?!?" expression is ''perfect''.
** Before that there's a great bit where Doc is revving up the [=DeLorean=], which is pointing right at the two of them. Marty starts to edge out of the way until Doc notices him and gives him a silent, confused look, as if he can't imagine why Marty would try to move. Marty sheepishly gets back into position.
%%*** Personally I always took it as Doc being confused by Marty's clothing choice, as a sort of foreshadowing joke to all the 'life preserver' jokes later in the film, that Doc with his brilliant mind but old-time sensibilities may be looking at Marty's denim jeans, his dirty sneakers, his puffy jacket, and thinking 'this kid dresses like a bum!'
*** And then, as the [=DeLorean=] speeds towards them, Marty breaks to run to the side, and Doc just grabs him and yanks him back, excitedly saying "Watch this, watch this!" Especially funny (or [[FridgeHorror terrifying]]) is that ''Doc'' seems almost more surprised than Marty that it actually ''worked.'' Given what we find out about Doc Brown's scientific prowess in 1955. . . what are the odds he was just working on an incredibly-elaborate way to run himself and Marty over?
* Marty [=McFly=] first meets his mother as an attractive teenage girl -- and immediately experiences a mini-Oedipal breakdown, not helped by the fact that she's obviously into him:
--> '''Marty''': You're my muhh... you're my ''muhh''...
--> '''Lorraine''': My name is Lorraine. Lorraine Baines.
--> '''Marty''': ''(with an audible squeak)'' Yeah!... but you're ''hooo''[[note]] hot[[/note]]... you're so ''hooo'''aah''''', you're so... ''thin!''

*** If you listen really carefully when Marty is pulling his jeans on, just as he tips forwards but just before he hits the ground, you can hear him hiss the word 'Shit!'
*** [[FunnyBackgroundEvent And if you look carefully in the mirror behind Marty here]], you can see the reflection of Lorraine leaving the room, [[CovertPervert who makes a ":D" face as she briefly looks at Marty in his undies.]]
** Lorraine's never seen purple underwear before. What's even more creepy yet still funny is the fact that Lorraine reads his name as Calvin Klein because she looked at his underwear.

* When Biff and his gang are about to slam into the manure truck, they all shout in unison, '''''"[[VisualPun SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!]]"'''''
** And afterwards, when Goldie Wilson reaches the car, he takes one sniff and his reaction is one of "Whoo! That is ''disgusting''!"
* "My name is [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]]! I am an [[Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial extraterrestrial]] from the planet [[Franchise/StarTrek Vulcan]]!"
** Not to mention Marty using a Walkman with a Music/VanHalen tape as an AgonyBeam, and in the extended version of the scene (available on the 25th anniversary DVD) passing off a hairdryer as a brain-melting gun. And the BrickJoke that Marty knocks George out with chloroform, and in the next scene George says he missed school because he overslept.
** The unwanted attention George draws from a passing couple as he babbles on to Marty about "Vader" threatening to melt his brain, with Marty just barely keeping him quiet about the unlikely encounter.
* Marty's little comment after he tries to get George to ask Lorraine out.
-->'''Marty:''' Jesus, George, it's a wonder I was even born.\\
'''George:''' What?

--> "So you're my uncle Joey. ''[taps the bars on the side of Joey's crib]'' Better get used to these bars, kid."
** And the follow-up, where Joey's mother says, [[{{Foreshadowing}} "He cries whenever we try to take him out so we just leave him in there all the time."]] Not to mention that he's got a ''striped shirt''.
* After the manure truck incident, Doc and Marty work out how they're going to get George and Lorraine together, as well as their plan for how to get the lightning bolt to power the flux capacitor...and then Lorraine turns up at Doc's house, having followed Marty here, to tell Marty that a real man stands up for the woman he loves.[[note]]Marty had just punched out Biff at Lou's Cafe.[[/note]] As she's saying this, Doc leans forward onto the covered [=DeLorean=] in a HeadDesk.
** Doc's face through that scene is pure hilarity, you just know the old guy is thinking "this is bad, this is really bad, this is really really bad".
* Blink and you will miss it: The [=DeLorean=] is equipped with Good''year'' tires.
* A deleted scene, viewable in the various DVD and Blu-Ray releases:
-->'''Marty:''' You know, this is the kind of thing that could screw me up permanently. What if I go back to the future and I end up bein'... ''[[ValuesDissonance gay?]]''
-->'''50s Doc:''' [[HaveAGayOldTime Why]] ''[[HaveAGayOldTime shouldn't]]'' [[HaveAGayOldTime you be happy?]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-MDtPK0hbY Another deleted scene]] shows Marty peeking into a classroom window and seeing Lorraine cheating on a test. She's then seen telling her friends that she got an F anyways.
*** Even funnier is [[http://youtu.be/dR_wNXvcZ9g?t=47s a joke version of the scene]], in which Creator/MichaelJFox shows up in a tank top, a hairnet, and a cigarette - and acts like a stereotypical Latino thug.
--->'''[=LatinoThug=]!Marty:''' Eh, Puto! There she is, mang, there's the bitch! ''(looks through the window)'' Cheatin', mang... SUNUVA BITCH, SHE CHEATIN', MANG! ''(bangs on door)'' ''EH, BITCH!!'' No homeboy for her tonight, mang.
*** Made even funnier when you see that he is [[{{Corpsing}} visibly cracking up]] as they film it. And you can hear the crew laughing as well. But Christopher Lloyd amazingly keeps a straight face throughout.

* Pretty much any of Doc's facial expressions throughout the trilogy. Christopher Lloyd's naturally overly-expressive eyes only make it better when he takes his/Doc's [[LargeHam hamminess]] UpToEleven.
** A notable example is when the flaming wind-up car runs off the table and sets fire to some old rags. Even though his eyes are covered by his goggles, [[http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080320220833/bttf/images/7/73/Docgasp.jpg his reaction]] is priceless. Merely typing "huh!" doesn't even begin to cover the emotion Lloyd conveys in that second.
** It’s more like “YHHHUUUAH!”
--> "Your plan is instilling me with a lot of confidence Doc."
** This is after he has apologized (quite seriously) for the "crudity" of the model he's built because he hasn't made it to scale or painted it. It is otherwise a large and absolutely flawless model of the area around the clocktower, and as detailed as a miniature film set.
* The part when Marty tries to get directions from the guy in the cafe:
-->'''Lou:''' ''[interrupting]'' Are you gonna order something, kid?!
-->'''Marty:''' Uh, yeah. Give me a Tab[[note]]The pre-1981 version of Diet Coke (though Coca-Cola continued to make Tab as a saccharin alternate to the aspartame-based (and more popular by 1985) Diet Coke).[[/note]].
-->'''Lou:''' Tab? I can't give you a tab unless you order something.
-->'''Marty:''' Okay, give me a Pepsi Free[[note]]The 1980s version of Caffeine-Free Pepsi[[/note]].
-->'''Lou:''' You want a Pepsi, pal, you gotta pay for it!
** Marty eventually gets Lou to give him a sugar free coffee. As Lou sets the coffee down, the camera finally shows that Marty is sitting next to George...which Marty doesn't realize until a moment later when Biff and his gang stop by to harass and torment George. After Biff leaves, we get a hilarious shot of George staring straight ahead, trying his hardest to ignore Marty as he slowly leans farther and farther forward to stare at George's face with a "holy shit" expression. Not only that, but the shot frames it from the side, where Marty's aforementioned expression is made all the more funny slowly appearing from behind George's straight face.
** The immediate reaction of Marty replying with "You're George [=McFly=]!" when George finally cracks. Marty is only able to say that because he'd sound crazy otherwise and the way it sounds makes it so ridiculous because he's already so shocked. What really nails it is George's "Yeah, who are you?" because he has no idea what he's making such a big deal about.
** At that point, Goldie Wilson, the busboy and future mayor, pops in to chide George for letting Biff walk all over him. Marty can't help but inadvertently blurt out to Goldie that he's going to become Mayor in 30 years. This ends up giving Goldie the idea to run for Mayor, to which Lou scoffs "[[ItWillNeverCatchOn A colored mayor? That'll be the day.]]"
* George makes his attempt to ask Lorraine out while she's at Lou's for milkshakes. He orders one to calm his nerves first.
** "Lou, give me a milk! ''(dramatic pause)'' Chocolate!" And the outtake where the glass slides too close to the edge of the counter, boucing off Crispin Glover's hand and ricocheting to the floor.
** "I'm your density." Just the way George awkwardly approaches Lorraine, holding his notebook out halfway over the table, and then Lorraine and her friends staring blankly at him as he breathes, "My density... has popped me to you." And she responds with a [[FlatWhat flat "What?"]]
** Doubles as heartwarming when George finally gets it right and says 'My destiny', only for Lorraine to respond with a soft 'Oh...' and the most adorable smile ever.
** Also heartwarming in the IDW comic series where he repeats it to Lorraine when they're already dating in the late 50s, and they both laugh about it.
* Marty explains that the plan to get his mother and father back together worked like a charm, even Biff was laid out in one punch. His father never stood up to him in his life. Doc contemplates this for a moment on how it might affect history, then shrugs it off. Seeing as he was so adamant about not changing history it comes off as "Well serves him right."
** FridgeBrilliance: You could easily point to that moment as Doc working it out that Marty just had HIS life altered via George standing up to Biff, and there were seemingly no dire consequences. So he figures "what the hell?" and pieces together Marty's letter of warning.
** Also Doc sees how pathetic George really was, so he believes it might be for the best.
** And, of course, the picture having everyone in it that it's supposed to, ''proves'' that whatever else happens, Marty has fixed things enough so that he will exist.
* The whole RunningGag involving Marty's vest and everyone mistaking it for a life jacket.
-->'''Skinhead:''' Hey Biff, get a load of this guy's life preserver. The dork thinks he's gonna drown!

-->'''50s Doc:''' Who's President of the United States in 1985?

-->'''50s Doc:''' ''Ronald Reagan''? The ''actor''? Then who's Vice President? Creator/JerryLewis?! I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady! And Jack Benny is secretary of the treasury!

-->'''50s Doc''': No wonder your president is an actor, he needs to look good on television!
* Two words: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b68FvBphfaQ HOLY SHIT!]]
* [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic Marty's cover of "Johnny B. Goode":]] not the performance itself or the ''[[ThePowerOfRock EPIC]]'' guitar solo, but everybody's reactions to it. The band give him concerned looks and gradually stop playing their instruments as Marty goes into a ''full-blown heavy metal solo'' (complete with playing his guitar behind his head, kicking over the amplifier and flailing around on the floor) - and when he is done, he opens his eyes...to see the audience silently staring at him like he's a ''lunatic''. (And Strickland slowly stops covering his ears).
** [[ALittleSomethingWeCallRockAndRoll "Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet...but your kids are gonna love it."]]
** Hell, what happened in the movie was a toned ''down'' version of [[http://1-21gwts.tumblr.com/post/63150429627/film-scripts-back-to-the-future-1985-directed what was called for in the script!]]
** If you watch closely the Starlighter's saxophone player [[FunnyBackgroundEvent is the only one who stays with Marty though the whole song]] and only starts reacting negatively [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere when Marty starts writhing on the floor.]]
** And the [[ChewingTheScenery faces]] that Marty pulls when he starts to go over-the-top with his playing must be seen to be believed.
** Also, [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Marvin Berry looking at his guitar, almost thinking "What the hell did he do to this?"]]

* Marty is talking with George while trying (and failing) to twist open a glass Pepsi bottle (twist off bottle caps haven't been introduced yet). George finally gets frustrated with watching this and grabs the bottle from Marty, popping the top off with a nearby wall-mounted bottle opener and handing it back to him.
* The SequelHook, with Marty and Jennifer piling into the [=DeLorean=] with Doc Brown. Watch Jennifer's wide-eyed reaction to it all, and consider that at this point ''[[LockedOutOfTheLoop she has no friggin' idea what is going on]]''.
* Huey Lewis cameos as an audition judge, and tells Marty's band that they're "just too darn loud" when they play [[HypocriticalHumor Lewis' own song "The Power of Love."]]
* The opening scene. Marty uses a [[KeyUnderTheDoormat key under Doc's doormat]] to get into his lab (muttering "''Aw, God!'' Oh, Jesus... That is ''disgusting'', what the hell is it with him..." when he notices the bowl full of [[{{Squick}} spoiled dog food]]), and proceeds to fiddle with different knobs and switches to activate a [[UpToEleven ridiculously gigantic amplifier]] - at full volume. [[WhatAnIdiot Which he is standing right in front of.]] He gets into position, readying his guitar pick...[[GaleForceSound and is promptly blown across the room by the noise]], destroying the amp in process, and crashing into a bookcase. [[GlassesPull "Rock 'n' roll"]] indeed.
** Made even funnier when Doc [[NowYouTellMe calls afterwards to warn Marty not to use the amplifier]].
** The news report at the beginning about the missing plutonium, before we see a ground level shot as Marty walks in and rolls his skateboard across the floor. Three guesses to what's hiding from Marty's view that it hits and two of them are wrong.
* [[http://youtu.be/dR_wNXvcZ9g?t=34s A blooper version]] of Marty heading to school at the beginning. He kicks Doc's gate open...only it won't shut again, so he just throws his skateboard at it and runs away. Eagle-eyed viewers can see him starting to laugh as he leaves the camera shot.
* Marty and Jennifer [[AlmostKiss having their kiss interrupted]] by the [[MomentKiller "Save the clock-tower!" lady]]. Summarized best in [[https://31.media.tumblr.com/7bead3419527516bb8c6d5cc341ef732/tumblr_inline_mz7fmtlcK01qzz4ul.gif this gif]] - just check out the look of exasperation on Marty's face.
* The entire sequence of Marty explaining the parking lot plan in detail, as he has to tell George that he's going to basically molest Lorraine to get her upset with him, and how visibly uncomfortable he is with the idea of it, but it gets better when George runs up gesticulating wildly with a bra in one hand, saying 'You mean you're gonna touch her on her-?!'
* Marty's insistence on George swearing when he opens the car door to 'save' Lorraine.
-->'''George:''' Do you really think I ought to swear?
-->'''Marty:''' Yes, definitely. Goddammit, George, swear!
** From the same scene, Marty's FreudianSlip when he's going over the plan with George. His execution in rescuing the situation by quickly replacing the word "Dad" with "Daddy-O" is priceless.
** And in a deleted scene, Marty tells George [[HitMeDammit to punch him in the stomach for practice]]. George ends up giving him the most pathetic, weenie-ish little tap ever.
--->'''George:''' There! That was good! She'll believe that. I know she will, I'm fine.
*** Which, of course, makes it all the more awesome when George finally grows a pair and damn near takes Biff's head off with one punch.
* Marty's confrontation with Biff when he shows up to toss George up. The way he towers over Marty who has just [[ContrivedClumsiness casually tripped him up]] in the cafe, the camera catching a glimpse of Marty's [[OhCrap classically scared face]] (just watch his eyes) as it happens (the fact that he's barely able to see over Biff's shoulders shows and it is hilarious). Marty then quickly pulls the oldest trick in the book by [[LookBehindYou pointing at something behind Biff]], punching him in the face when he's distracted and then taking off. Doubles as SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome.
-->'''Lorraine:''' That's Calvin Klein! Oh my god he's such a dream!
** It doesn't help Marty's case when he punches Biff, because instead of noticing George, Lorraine gets even more lovesick with Marty than before.
--> '''Lorraine:''' He's an absolute ''DREAM.''
* Marty asking Lorraine's parents where Doc's house is. Since this is 1955, they haven't heard of President Kennedy yet.
** When Marty leaves, Lorraine's parents comment on his behavior. Irony is abound, whilst Lorraine is staring lovingly after him.
--> '''Stella Baines:''' He's a very strange young man.
--> '''Sam Baines:''' He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too. Lorraine, if you ever have a kid like that, I'll disown you.
** A shot under the dinner table shows Lorraine caressing Marty's leg. His barely controlled discomfort changes when he abruptly stands up as she gropes him. And Lorraine's rosy gaze in Marty's direction at the same time. His uncomfortable expression nails it.
** In fact, the entire dinner scene. Marty rescuing himself after being questioned about the plot of a brand new TV show and the concept of reruns by Lorraine's younger brother is especially notable.
** Lorraine's mother introducing Marty to her three other children... while clearly pregnant with her fifth.

-->'''Doc:''' Now, remember. According to my theory, you interfered with your parents' first meeting. If they don't meet, they won't fall in love, they won't get married and they won't have kids. That's why your older brother's disappearing from that photograph. Your sister will follow, and unless you repair the damage, you'll be next!

** A LuckyTranslation greatly improves this line in French. Marty's "heavy" is translated with an expression (''C'est pas le pied'') which literally means "this ain't the foot", leading to the predictable retort:

--->'''Marty:''' Whoa, wait a minute, Doc, are you trying to tell me that my mother...has got the ''hots for me?''

* Marty's first attempt at introducing George to Lorraine all but fails. George leans on the school locker casually but Lorraine is so focused on Marty she simply sees right through him and walks up to him instead. Leaving George awkwardly standing around before walking off.
* When figuring out how to find a social event for his parents to meet and kiss, Marty replies to Doc's question of what they like to do for fun together with a realisation of 'Nothing'.
* Lorraine's execution around the dinner table of her reminiscing of how she met George. All of it. The fact that they met in such ridiculous circumstances makes it all the more funny what with how lovesick she sounds.
-->'''Linda:''' ''(aghast)'' That was so ''stupid!'' Grandpa hit him with the car!
-->'''Lorraine:''' ''(firmly)'' It was ''meant to be''.
* The hilariously awkward [[RippleEffectIndicator photo]] [[http://robotcosmonaut.tumblr.com/image/102323515066 of Marty, Dave and Linda]]. Dave's stood there wearing a MickeyMouse t-shirt and waving like a huge dork, Linda is wearing those ''ridiculous'' 80's leggings and that [[BuffySpeak big pink bow thing]], and Marty has a half-hearted smile on his face that basically says "I-really-really-wish-I-weren't-here-right-now".

* At the climax of the movie, Marty is about to set off in the [=DeLorean=] to get back to 1985. [[MyCarHatesMe The car, of course, fails on him at this moment.]] After trying and trying to get it to start up, Marty finally ''loses it'' and bangs his head against the steering wheel in a fit of rage - [[PercussiveMaintenance which starts up the engine again.]] Marty's wide eyes and {{Adorkable}} gasp at this is hilarious.
* From a [[http://youtu.be/JVf6aYCGPYI?t=10s deleted scene]], after Marty looks at the newspaper confirming that he's in 1955, an elderly woman bumps into him. What does Marty do? He asks her to [[PinchMe pinch him]] to confirm that this is real. [[EpicFail He gets a slap instead.]]
-->'''Marty:''' ''(holding his cheek in pain)'' Yeah, that'll do...

* The HypocriticalHumor scene when Marty swipes the booze flask from Lorraine has a gag reel outtake: The prop crew secretly put real booze in it. Cue a [[EnforcedMethodActing real spit-take]] from an unsuspecting Michael J. Fox. Lea Thompson was in on it judging from her amused expression and the inference that she had to take a nip from it in that scene before Michael.
** In a magazine interview from 2015, she actually pointed out that was her favorite scene to shoot, because everyone was in on it except Michael J. Fox, and she comments that he was so tired from filming the movie AND 'Family Ties' at the same time that he probably wanted to just drink it.
* After Marty says goodbye to George and Lorraine at the dance, he starts to leave before quickly turning around and telling them that if they ever have [[NoodleIncident a son who accidentally sets the living room rug on fire when he's eight years old]] (with hand gestures for emphasis on "accidentally") they should go easy on him.
-->'''George:''' (with a confused chuckle) Okay.

-->'''Marty:''' Uh, yeah. Give me a Tab[[note]]The pre-1981 version of Diet Coke(though Coca-Cola continued to make Tab as a saccharin alternate to the aspartame-based (and more popular by 1985) Diet Coke).[[/note]].

*** Even funnier is [[http://youtu.be/dR_wNXvcZ9g?t=47s a joke version of the scene]], in which Creator/MichaelJFox shows up in a wifebeater, a hairnet, and a cigarette - and acts like a stereotypical Latino thug.

-->'''Marty:''' Jesus, George, It's a wonder I was even born.\\

** Mary eventually gets Lou to give him a sugar free coffee. As Lou sets the coffee down, the camera finally shows that Marty is sitting next to George...which Marty doesn't realize until a moment later when Biff and his gang stop by to harass and torment George. After Biff leaves, we get a hilarious shot of George staring straight ahead, trying his hardest to ignore Marty as he slowly leans farther and farther forward to stare at George's face with a "holy shit" expression. Not only that, but the shot frames it from the side, where Marty's aforementioned expression is made all the more funny slowly appearing from behind George's straight face.

** Made even funnier when Doc calls afterwards to warn Marty not to use the amplifier.

** And a little later on this happens, because Marty and Doc are still having differences on the definition of "heavy":

* Marty's confrontation with Biff when he shows up to toss George up. The way he towers over Marty who has just [[ContrivedClumsiness casually tripped him up]] in the cafe, the camera catching a glimpse of Marty's [[OhCrap classically scared face]] (just watch his eyes) as it happens (the fact that he's barely able to see over Biff's shoulders shows and it is hilarious). Marty then quickly pulls the oldest trick in the book by [[LookBehindYou pointing at something behind Biff]], punching him in the face when he's distracted and then taking off. Doubles as CrowningMomentOfAwesome.

* When—after much discussion and reassurance that he'll be all right—Doc, who is living in 1885 with his family, test-drives the proto-time train and vanishes into the future, Jules is stunned: "[[SkepticNoLonger All this time, Dad was telling the]] ''[[SkepticNoLonger truth?]]"''

* In a dramatic moment during the "Who is Marty [=McFly=]?" storyline, Marty is seized and dragged away by what appear to be several alternate versions of himself [[spoiler:(actually just animatronic look-a-likes)]] right in front of Doc. When Doc attempts to give chase he's confused to find himself "not getting any closer," and turns around to find yet ''another'' Marty grabbing him by his overshirt. He slips out of it with a cool "[[CasualDangerDialogue New Marty, please...don't stretch my shirt]]."
