And I think the reason they got the future so wrong is because of what Marty and doc did to the timeline we find ourself in.
Everything they did back in 1885, 1955 and in 1985 created a butterfly effect resulting in our hoverboard-less and flying-car-less 2015. :(
Makes sense to me. Those bastards.

No you foolish little chap,
the reason BttF's version of 2015 is so far off is because they needed the future to look interesting as hell because it's a movie. What great movie doesn't have futuristic technology and sex??

I've heard that's one of the best movies ever made in the last 100 years
There are hover boards, just not mass produced.... yet.

Holy shit the art of cinema has existed for a hundred years!
But yeah it's pretty good. Might even go so far to say it's one of my favorites.

Isn't the reason because the main character introduced skateboards or whatever to the past much earlier than it was supposed to?

I've seen all the BttFs hundreds of times
Did i just crack the code?
"Till one day, that lion gets up and tears the shit out of everybody."
We're not more technologically advanced because BttF didn't consider the fact that it's 2015, and people are still racist and/or constantly play the race card, which significantly slows down human innovation.
Plenty of great scientists have put on the news only to become instantly more stupid when faced with headlines like "Black man killed by white cops, thousands of peaceful protesters riot and loot in the streets"

We have the Occulus and Playstation VR now so I would say we're not too far off from the futures that have been envisioned. And don't forget to throw in the iPhones and iPads from Star Trek.

That's more of less what this video says.

Infact, a lot of things we have made now like Holograms
Those are projected onto a solid screen. It's not like the holographic shark from the second movie. This is a better hologram which is projected directly into empty space and transparent materials by energizing pockets of air..
and Hoverboards
We don't have those yet, but they are possible. The existing hoverboards float by quantum locking between a low temperature metal and a magnet. They run on metal strips. Someone just has to figure out how to create an extremely powerful magnetic monopole which can use quantum locking to buffer against the earth's magnetic field.
Just an 02er.
Maybe they were spot-on and we just fail to use our ressources and technology well. Back to the future was not the only thing that predicted things like flying cars, hoverboards, etc.
Like all fiction, it predicted a lot of things based on fantastic imagination rather than actual science, which should've been kind of obvious considering that there was no flux capacitor on a Delorean back in 1985 in real life. Not to mention that the future in BTTF changes every time Marty and Doc Brown go back or forwards in time. On a technical level, a lot of the technology in BTTF could've have been made today, much less in other sci-fi movies that had things like hoverboards or flying cars or even Nike shoes that velcro themselves as soon as you put them on {still don't know why anyone hasn't thought of that} but the reason why they haven't been made is because there has been little need to do so or demand for it, on a mass scale at least.
Plus they predicted that the Cubs would win the World Series in a 5 game sweep, that alone means that BTTF wasn't exactly the best predictor of future events, though you could say the same thing for most sci-fi movies.
Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.

That's a Mustang, right?
Which is kinda funny, because at one point Ford offered to pay $7.5k if the time machine was a Mustang instead of a DeLorean
I'm just upset that we haven't abolished lawyers yet. That sounded like a pleasant future.

Marty went back to 1955 and screwed up so his parents never met. He spent the movie trying to make his nerd dad make a move on his mom who fell in love with him instead. so yeah...
It's the best of the three movies.

I saw no fewer than two videos that showed a real life hoverboard that turned out to be staged. Christopher Lloyd was even in one of them, but it was just something made by Collegehumor. I heard they may in fact be in production, but don't count on it.

The producers never intended to make a realistic 2015.
