Synopsis:

A combined and streamlined version of Back To The Future 2 and 3 - combining them into one movie as originally planned by Gale/Zemeckis.


Intentions:

The intention of this fanedit was to present an alternate reality where, in 1989, there was only one sequel to Back To The Future released in theaters. It was to see if the two films could work as one long ride that maintains the basic themes and character arcs and feels like a cohesive cinematic piece.


Change List:

-Removed the moment when Marty first sees the Almanac through the window. Kind of a pointless little edit, but it makes the later Almanac reveal more of a surprise. -Removed the hot tub scene with Biff watching For A Fistful of Dollars. Reason is that it's foreshadowing the gun fight scene in Part III which has been removed. -Removed the scene where Doc meets his past self in 1955. -Removed the entire sequence where Marty is climbing above the stage during the Enchantment Under the Sea Dance. -Removed the scene where Biff wakes up after being punched in 1955. -Part 2 segues directly into Part 3. After 1955 Doc faints, we cut to him reading his own letter with the magnifying glass. -Removed some dialogue during this sequence, as well as when Marty and Doc find the Delorean in the mines. -Removed the scene where they go to the library to research Doc's death in 1885. -Removed the moment when Marty hides from the Cowboys on horseback (he only encounters the Indians). -Cut down the sequence at the McFly farm - it ends after Seamus offers Marty his hat. -The most significant chunk taken out of the movie: the entire subplot between Marty and Mad Dog Tannen. Marty only encounters him once, in the saloon. Where he subsequently gets hanged and saved by Doc. Mad Dog is absent for the rest of the movie. No dance sequence with ZZ Top or Marty being given a gun. No duel. -No fight/breakup scene between Doc and Clara.
