Is there a case to made that Back to the Future Part 3 is the best in the trilogy?

[MadDogTannen]

Best DeLorean? Check

Best descendant of Biff? Check

Best costumes? Check

Best poster? Check

One is a classic, no doubt, but there's something so different about Part 3 that I enjoy. It's the one I rewatch the most. It's phenomenal

 

[Bunkem]

Absolutely not.

 

[Mesoian]

No, but it gets way more shit than it deserves, it's a very fun movie.

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

It was my favorite growing up

 

[Squarehard]

It is if you're Rekieta Law.

 

[sir_crocodile]

No, there is no case you could make for this.

It's a good film, the weakest of the trilogy, and better then it normally gets credit for.

 

[Strax]

I did give us the penis pointing, so that's something.

 

[shaneo632]

Nah but it gets way too much shit. It's the worst of the 3 but still a ton of fun.

 

[WaveBird]

Growing up it was not my favorite. The last few times I've rewatched I actually did enjoy it the most.

 

[Ashes of Dreams]

It's the worst kind of sequel that used to be the main kind of sequel before franchises because what they are. Just repeating jokes and making references to the earlier movies but with a wacky twist. In this case, Wild West themed. At least Part 2 used it's time travel gimmick to interact with the first movie in a slightly interesting way.

I don't think any of them are all THAT great though.

 

[The Ethereal One]

Best soundtrack? Check.

[OhSatan]

The Best? No

Better than everybody has always give it credit? Hell Yeah

 

[JigglesBunny]

We don't need to have contrarian opinions for everything.

 

[Wally_Wall]

I'm in the "Part II is the best" camp but I adore all 3 films.

 

[Maquiladora]

It's great but no....the first movie is sheer perfection, a genuine classic.

 

[Jam]

No.

 

[PirateHearts]

It's been a while since I've seen the whole trilogy, but I remember the third one being pretty fun, if largely disconnected from the first two.

Based on my memory of them, my ranking is probably something like: The first act of Part II > Part I > Part III > The rest of Part II

 

[lmog]

Definitely not.

Also Doc getting married and having kids in the past was very incongruous with the other movies, that's a big messing up with the past.

 

[Senator Toadstool]

Not gonna lie Mary Steenburgen was a smoke show

 

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

As a BTTF ultra-fan, even I would be hard-pushed to come up with some decent arguments to say that it's the best part of the trilogy. At most, I could say that it sticks the landing, provides satisfying closure to everyone's arcs whilst also introducing new story elements to keep audience interest alive many years after the end of the movie.

 

[Rosebud]

I can agree with arguments for all 3, perfect trilogy

 

[No Depth]

All three make a fine trilogy, but 1 and 2 are just on a diff level from 3.

 

[giancarlo123x]

As a fan of the movie, no.

 

[Adder7806]

Fun movie but Action Adventure Stage Coach Jumping Doc was a bit eye rolling. No, it was not the best of the three movies.

 

[Uncle at Nintendo]

It feels like a direct to video movie

 

[Sarobi]

I did give us the penis pointing, so that's something.

Lmao wasn't that because he needed to pee and they were taking too long to do the scene?

 

[Hollywood Duo]

Only if you are a ZZ Top super fan.

 

[Firebricks]

Its an incredibly fun movie, but it can't be the best in a trilogy where back to the future 1 exists.

 

[platypotamus]

Damn, can't believe OP got shot in the back over a matter of eighty dollars like this

 

[Xero grimlock]

I think its a bit better a movie then 2 nowadays, and it's definitely hated on way more the needed. Ive really come around to it a lot in more recent times as its the best movie in the trilogy showing marty and doc as just friends. The other 2 movies are kinda so preoccupied with saving marty its hard to see why they were friends to begin with. The flip to having 3 focus on doc really shows how great their friendship is. My favorite movie trilogy.

 

[UltraMav]

I mean, it's the worst of three really great movies. Kind of how I feel about "Return of the Jedi."

 

[FF Seraphim]

It is the weakest of the 3 but it is still a good movie. I fear when they do a reboot.

 

[KillingJoke]

Never cared that much for it tbh. Hated all the crappy accents.

 

[Soybean]

No, but it gets way more shit than it deserves, it's a very fun movie.

Correct

 

[MrConbon210]

I ask people legitimately every day what their favorite Back to the Future movie is. The LARGE majority people only talk about the first one. Every now and then a few people with being up Part 2 but Part 3 is never mentioned.

 

[Jombie]

Nah.

 

[Virtua Sanus]

As a big fan of the film, no. Really weird direction to conclude on overall. I respect how out there it is, but I rather just rewatch the first movie again.

 

[Gaius Cassius]

I did give us the penis pointing, so that's something.

You played the penis kid? 😂

 

[chubigans]

Second movie da best, I loved the future elements as a kid. so so good

 

[Dead Man Typing]

You can make the argument. I don't think you'd win but I don't think it's a preposterous notion.

 

[Mekanos]

It's better than 2 (which feels like 3 movies smashed into one) but 1 is untouchable.

 

[StarStorm]

Part 3 is the weakest one. I didn't like it then, don't really like it much now. I like Part 2 the most followed by Part 1. I still make references from Part 1 and 2 to this day haha.

 

[Quadrophenic]

Not the best one, but better than part 2.

 

[Beren]

It's a good movie and all, but no.

 

[MadDogTannen]

Not the best one, but better than part 2.

Click to shrink...

Agreed 👍

3 > 1 > 2 imo

2 would've been better if the whole movie was in the future

 

[entremet]

My least favorite of the trilogy

 

[Sketchsanchez]

There's an argument that it's better than part 2 by a country mile but the whole trilogy? No, sorry.

The original is a damn near perfect movie.

 

[Chiaroscuro]

As a BTTF ultra-fan, even I would be hard-pushed to come up with some decent arguments to say that it's the best part of the trilogy. At most, I could say that it sticks the landing, provides satisfying closure to everyone's arcs whilst also introducing new story elements to keep audience interest alive many years after the end of the movie.

Click to shrink...

Exactly. And for me the first movie is perfect as standalone, shouldn't got sequels.

 

[Delicious Waffles]

Part 1is perfect but Part 3 is a hell of a lot better than Part 2. I never liked Part 2.

 

[Astro Cat]

It seems like more people are coming around on 3 but I don't get it. The first is obviously the best but the second was the first one I saw in the theater so that's my personal favorite.
