Both good movies, but I've always been a big fan of the BTTF series. I guess it's the workings of my inner-geek.

Indiana Jones is classic. I honestly can't say that I've watched the entire BTTF, but what I saw just seemed goofy.

Hey Costigan, why isn't Billy Zane listed as a supporting actor in BTTF?

He didn't have any lines. I know he made his screen presence felt in every scene he appeared in but he wasn't billed on the supporting cast therefor I didn't list him.

That's a toss up for me. I grew up liking Back To The Future more though. Michael J Fox is the man.

There is no toss up. How can anyone say BTTF is better than Indiana Jones?

No one in their right mind would say so. No one remotely informed would say so. It's another in a long line of inappropriate comparison polls by Costigan. You're talking about a guy who started a poll wanting to know who had the better career, Richard Gere or (almost too dumb to even mention) Billy Zane.

Informed?

I'll take BTTF. In the 80s I'd say Raiders of the Lost Ark, but I think BTTF has more staying power because they're both getting more silly as time passes on, but BTTF isn't supposed to be taken as seriously.

I like the Back To The Future series but I'd much rather watch Raiders Of The Lost Ark.

Trying to operate the DeLorean with Parkinson's Disease would make for a great new Back To The Future.

Special effects are getting a little silly.

Sometimes effects aren't everything. BTTF's effects are kind of hokey too. Raiders had a great story and great dialogue. It wasn't just about special effects like 99% of the crap coming out of Hollywood is now.

But BTTF is a little bit silly in all aspects. It fits.
