Three hundred and sixty-five days from now — to the exact minute of this post — the events of the opening third of “Back to the Future II” take place.
Comcast, which owns Universal, would do good to have the USA Network run the “Back to the Future” trilogy in semi-heavy rotation in 2015. It should be trivial enough to sync the moment Doc says “We are descending toward Hill Valley, California, at 4:29 PM on October 21, 2015” with that exact moment. BTTF trilogy marathons would be way better than the never-ending string of crime procedurals.
After 30 years (really 25 since it was filmed in 1988-89), the most accurate prediction is…a localized USA Today newspaper. Unless, of course, the Cubs win next year’s World Series.
