SPOILER

Well, not really, we all know he's gonna make it back, but if you watch really
carefully, just before Marty gets back to the future, the future (his present)
is different: he lives in a Moral-Majority ruled state, with police
helicopters shining search-lights on the citizenry below (or maybe that's just
the way California really is...)  The triple-X theater advertises a revival
meeting instead of ``Orgy, American Style'', the streets are littered, but the
same old wino is sleeping on the park bench.

Then he returns, and the theater marquee reverts to advertising an X-rated
movie, and all is normal (more or less).

Watch real carefully, it's over in just a few seconds.

God, I wonder how many things like this I MISSED...

(And who's Mary, anyway?)
