'Back to the Future' cast reunion at London Film & Comic Con 2015!

The cast of the 'Back to the Future' trilogy answer questions at the London Film and Comic Convention 2015. Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the franchise that gave us iconic characters, unforgettable phrases, and kept us thoroughly entertained on an epic adventure through time!  Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd and the lovely Lea Thompson answer questions on this panel. Reflecting back on memories working together - such as the scene 'Marty' and 'Lorraine' park and Michael wasn't expecting real whiskey in the prop bottle, so his 'spit take' was a real reaction!

SAVE THE CLOCK TOWER!

It was hard to believe that Christopher Lloyd, Michael J. Fox & Lea Thompson were right in front of me, talking at the official London Film & Comic Con press conference. It was really cool hearing their stories - seeing them interact with each other on the stage, I could tell they had a great chemistry between them off-screen as well as on-screen. It must have been a lot of fun making the 'Back to the Future' movies.

Also, Michael discussed co-writer Bob Gale creating interesting characters and how co-writer / Director Robert Zemeckis and Executive Producer Steven Spielberg worked together.

SLACKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE!





The lovely Claudia Wells a.k.a 'Jennifer Parker' introduces the video below that I worked on for Limelight TV (which supports indie-filmmakers). I interviewed James Tolkan a.k.a., 'Mr Strickland' - a great guy and very welcoming, as he said, "You said my name well," he talks to me about his favourite films from his career and gives some encouraging and inspirational advice to the young people of today.



DON'T BE A BOJO! THESE HOVERBOARDS DON'T WORK ON WATER!



Ricky Dean Logan played 'Data' in 'Back to the Future part 2' and famously called Marty McFly a 'Bojo', during the incredible Hoverboard scene set in the future - Oct 21st 2015 precisely (which we celebrated this year!) He also told me how he started in the movie business due to a unexpected short film, and gives some great motivational advice to upcoming talented filmmakers.



Also watch a surprise cameo from Jeffrey Weissman a.k.a., 'George McFly' (BTTF 2 & 3) showing off a really cool gadget from 'Doc Brown' ;-)


Plus, interviews from amazing people helping to raise money for Parkinson's research - including two very excited fans who raised a great deal of money and got the chance to meet their hero Michael J. Fox!
