...gags come in every size and shape. Small: Marty in full cowboy regalia except for his shoes, which are, incongruously, sneakers. Large: an Indian arrow having punctured the gas tank of their time machine (still that goofily customized DeLorean), Marty and Doc must purloin a locomotive to push the car up to warp speed. Romantic: frenetic Doc smitten by love for -- who else in a western? -- Mary Steenburgen's lovely schoolmarm. Deliciously anticipated: the appearance of Marty's bullying nemesis Biff (Thomas F. Wilson), this time got up as his distant ancestor Buford ("Mad Dog") Tannen, the dumbest...
Future II opens with a deceptively simple errand to run. Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) wheels up to Marty McFly (Michael J.

As he writes in his autobiography, "I would delight in being able to resurrect the DeLorean car." He and a group of investors including Marvin Katz, an Ohio-based auto-parts distributor, hope to start a modest venture that would turn out 250 cars annually, possibly in Columbus...
...DeLoreans sold in the U.S. are beginning to disappear from American roads because of the lack of spare parts. But the car has not totally receded from the popular imagination. In last summer's megahit movie Back to the Future, the supercharged auto that carries Marty McFly back to the 1950s is a converted DeLorean, specially equipped for time travel...
