The first film is about George, the second is about Biff, and the third is about Doc. The only thing that makes Marty the central character (aside from his badass-ness) is the fact that the films are told from his perspective.

Look at everything that happens to him, and does he let it get him down? Not a jot! It's not even that he's on top of things. He just knows (and it's reinforced by Doc) that there are things that HAVE to be done no matter what, and Marty McFly makes shit happen! I could see Marty facing a horde of Ninja (and I'm not referring to that scene in The Hard Way) and somehow making it work. That's the beauty of the character!

BTTF is actually my favorite of the trilogy, but they're all great taken together (kind of like Lord of the Rings). I remember going to the theatre with my dad back in the day to watch this, and I still consider it one of my favorite movie-going experiences because I idolized Marty McFly so much as a child... I used to play BTTF in Kindergarten with our toys during playtime (I even had my own Doc, Jennifer, and Biff to play with). Now that I think about it, Kindergarten BTTF Time was probably my first crack at filmmaking/directing, except I didn't have a camera or whatever... thanks for reminding me of that, Bryan!
