Back to the Future Day: what Part II got right and wrong about 2015 – an A-Z

In the second film, which was celebrated this week as part of Back to the Future day, Tannen becomes a successful businessman who opens a 27-story casino and, in an oddly prescient touch, uses his money to influence US politics.
“We thought about it when we made the movie! Are you kidding?” Gale said to the Daily Beast. “You watch Part II again and there’s a scene where Marty confronts Biff in his office and there’s a huge portrait of Biff on the wall behind Biff, and there’s one moment where Biff kind of stands up and he takes exactly the same pose as the portrait? Yeah.”
In the film, Biff’s political sway leads to difficult times for the people, turning Hill Valley into a town filled with crime and corruption.
The week has been filled with Back to the Future celebrations to commemorate 21 October 2015, the date that Marty and Doc travel to in the second film. The 1989 movie predicted a time filled with hoverboards, self-tying laces and exhausted shark-thriller franchises.
“We wanted to portray an optimistic, enjoyable, fun future, where the characters are still a mess,” Gale said. “We don’t have Jaws 19, but we have Sharknado 3.”Last edited by Seshmeister; 05-12-2016, 10:41 PM.Comment

Donald Trump’s Former Butler Calls for Obama’s Death; Secret Service to Investigate
By DANIEL VICTORMAY 12, 2016
The Secret Service said it would investigate Donald J. Trump’s longtime butler over Facebook posts laced with vulgarities and epithets calling for President Obama to be killed.
The racially tinged posts by the butler, Anthony Senecal, were unearthed by Mother Jones on Thursday, and referred to Mr. Obama as a “Kenyan fraud” who should be hanged for treason.
“With the last breath I draw I will help rid this America of the scum infested in its government,” Mr. Senecal wrote last May, saying that the president should be dragged from the “white mosque” and hanged “from the portico — count me in !!!!!”
In a statement Thursday, the Secret Service said it was “aware of this matter and will conduct the appropriate investigation.”
Hope Hicks, a Trump campaign spokeswoman, said in an email about the posts by Mr. Senecal, “We totally and completely disavow the horrible statements made by him.” Mr. Senecal did not immediately respond to a telephone call and Facebook message seeking comment.
The posts were revealed as Mr. Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, has come under scrutiny for his associations with, and support from figures such as the former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. On Tuesday, Mr. Trump’s campaign aides said a technical glitch had included William Johnson, a self-proclaimed white nationalist, on a list of California delegates they submitted to the Secretary of State’s office.
Mr. Senecal had worked almost 30 years for Mr. Trump, and was the subject of a profile in The New York Times in March. He spoke of knowing Mr. Trump’s sleeping pattens, his culinary preferences and just the right ways to cheer him up when he was in a sour mood, once hiring a bugler to play “Hail to the Chief.”
When he tried to retire in 2009, Mr. Trump deemed him irreplaceable and kept him on as an unofficial historian at the Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, the article said. But in her statement, Ms. Hicks said, “Tony Senecal has not worked at Mar-a-Lago for years.”
Some of Mr. Senecal’s other Facebook posts aimed at Ferguson protesters and various public figures, including Hillary Clinton, the Democratic front-runner for president, whom he called “Killery Clinton”; Beyoncé; and the Republican National Committee, which has quarreled with Mr. Trump through the nomination process. The committee members should be hanged for treason, he wrote in March.
Although some of the posts, which dated to 2015, were written publicly while others were visible only to friends, Mother Jones said that Mr. Senecal had confirmed that they were his words: “I wrote that. I believe that.”Comment

Ok I could only sit thru half of that because that chick is beyond stoopid. Why in the hell would anyone put someone on TV who can't even string a sentence together?? God, I just wanted to smack her in the back of the head to get her brain to engage.
And if I was Trump I would tweet that picture and embrace it and laugh about it. Say something like I'm highly offended because the hair looks bad or something like that. Free publicity is the best!!American by birth. Southern by the grace of God.
