  1. BACK TO THE FUTURE series

    If you read the Back to the Future FAQ (written by writer Bob Gale and director Robert Zemeckis, and also present as an extra on the DVD of part III) it is apparent that the movie wasn't using the branching-parallel-universe theory of time travel, but rather something more like a single...
