Back To The Future

Personality:   Marty was an easy-going adolescent most of the time. In the first film, he had a bit of a habit of disregarding adults. However, Marty is a well-intentioned, kind, loyal, and music-loving teenager. He was not the best student academically. His grades were fairly good, but he had a tendency to be late for school. This was not always his fault, however, as shown when Doc set all his clocks 25 minutes slow, causing Marty to show up late for school. Marty is a very loyal guy. He constantly sticks up for the little guy when asked for help. He is also very steadfast to Doc Brown, as a number of adults, including his parents, have said he's very risky to be around, but Marty says that he really is not. Marty played lead guitar with The Pinheads and liked listening to Huey Lewis and the News and Eddie Van Halen. He was also a talented skateboarder. Marty was also shown to be good at singing, as shown in his performance of "Johnny B. Goode" at the Enchantment Under The Sea Dance. When faced with danger, Marty was always courageous and could be very resourceful and shrewd. His only major character flaw was his persistent desire to show others that he was not a coward, which sometimes caused him to take unnecessary risks. He couldn't abide to being called "chicken", a trait he shares with James Dean's character Jim Stark from Rebel Without a Cause which happens to have been made in 1955. His pride and desire to be seen as tough makes it easy for people like Needles, Griff, young Biff and for a short time Buford to manipulate him into doing what they want, which ends up getting Marty into more trouble. However, Marty realized that he doesn't have to constantly prove his bravery and avoids one of the greatest tragedies in his life, a collision with a Rolls-Royce that would have ruined his ability to play the guitar. ement Skip to content Futurepedia Futurepedia, the BTTF Wiki 3,463 pages Explore Characters Movies Other Media BTTF Culture in: Articles with non-canon elements, Articles to be expanded, Individuals, and 44 more English Emmett Brown Sign in to edit Doc Emmett Brown Dr. Emmett Lathrop "Doc" Brown Biographical information Date of birth 1914 (game)[1] 1920 (novelization) 1922 (animation)[2] Age (1931) 17 (game)[1] 11 (novelization) 9 (animation)[2] Age (1955) 41 (game)[1] 35 (novelization) 33 (animation)[2] Age (1985) 71 (game)[1] 65 (novelization) 63 (animation)[2] Age (2015) 101 (game)[1] 95 (novelization) 93 (animation)[2] Physical description Gender Male Hair color Brown (1931),[1] Blond (1955) White (1985) Eye color Brown Behind-the-scenes information Played by Christopher Lloyd Voiced by Dan Castellaneta (animated series) Christopher Lloyd (Doc/Citizen Brown) (2010 video game), (Doc.

" —From Back to the Future by George Gipe (quote, page 25) Dr. Emmett Lathrop "Doc" Brown is a resident of Hill Valley, California. He was the inventor of the DeLorean Time Machine.[3] He is the world's third time traveler (after Einstein and Marty McFly), the second to travel forwards in time (after Einstein), the first human to travel forwards in time, and the second human to travel through time (after Marty). He is the deutertagonist of the Back to the Future franchise, with his 1985 self serving as the overarching protagonist of Back to the Future, the deuteragonist of Back to the Future Part II, the main protagonist of Back to the Future Part III, Back to the Future: The Animated Series, and Back to the Future: The Ride with his 1955 self-serving as a major character in Back to the Future, a minor character in Back to the Future Part II and a supporting character in Back to the Future Part III. A scientist by trade, Doc was a "student of all sciences" who spent much of his time inventing.[4] He was the son of Judge Erhardt Brown (whose birth name was Erhardt Von Braun). He usually had a pet dog – in 1955, his dog was named Copernicus after Nicolaus Copernicus, the third in a line of pets named after famous scientists,[5] and by 1985 his dog was named Einstein after Albert Einstein. Doc's role models were scientists, as evidenced by the names of his dogs and the portraits of Isaac Newton, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, and Albert Einstein found in his laboratory (which were on his fireplace mantle in 1955).[3] Contents 1 Biography 1.1 Early life 1.2 Making a friend 1.3 "Single-handedly" capturing Kid Tannen 1.4 A Match Made in Heaven? 1.5 Destiny Revealed 1.6 On the Manhattan Project 1.7 After the Manhattan Project 1.8 Early time travel experiments 1.9 The DeLorean time machine 1.10 Changing the future 1.11 The Actions of the Alternate Doc Brown in "Hell" Valley 1.12 The Actions of the Original Doc Brown in Hell Valley 1.13 In the Old West 1.14 Finding a way home 1.15 Amnesia and reuniting with Marty 1.16 The anniversary present 1.17 Encounter with Marcus Irving 1.18 The parole of Joey Baines 1.19 Returning to 1931 Hill Valley 1.20 On the return trip to 1986 1.21 The second DeLorean time machine 1.22 21st century 2 Personality and traits 3 Behind the scenes 4 See also 5 Appearances 6 Notes and references Biography Early life Emmett's father, Erhardt Von Braun, was born in Germany, but sought a better life in America. He left home with nothing but the clothes he wore, despite his father's disapproval, and arrived in Hill Valley, California in 1908. He married some time afterward, and they gave birth to Emmett in 1914. Around this time, anti-German sentiment had increased in the United States due to Germany's involvement in World War I, so Erhardt had their family name changed from Von Braun to Brown.[4] Note: The following section is considered non-canon or is disputed in canonicity.. Emmett had an uncle Oliver who lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When Emmett was young, he would go to visit him in the summer.[2] On August 5, 1926, Emmett fell into a river and developed a fear of fishing. In 1991, Emmett's sons, Jules and Verne discovered this fear after asking their father to go to the Father-Son Big Mouth Bass-Off. They traveled to 1926, together with Marty McFly, in an attempt to prevent the accident. However, when Emmett cast his line, it got caught on a low flying stunt biplane flown by Roris Von Hinklehuffins. Emmett's stunt was recorded, and he was heralded as "Daredevil Brown". Uncle Oliver realized that Emmett could bring in a lot of money, so he signed a deal to have Emmett become a famous silent film star, doing crazy stunts around the country. When he arrived in Hollywood, movie producer D.W. Tannen proposed a very dangerous stunt, going over Niagara Falls in a barrel, but promised that a dummy would take Emmett's place. In reality, Tannen planned on keeping Emmett in the barrel for the "realistic" look. Verne saved his father by taking his place in the barrel. Using a handheld portable flux capacitor, Verne arrived on dry land in the barrel when its fall approached the speed of eighty-eight miles per hour. Oliver realized that he had put Emmett's life in danger by blindly accepting that the people in charge of the stunts cared about Emmett's well-being, so he put an end to Emmett's short film career. Emmett returned home to pursue the life of science he was supposed to have, but this time without his fear of fishing. Non-canon or disputable information ends here. At age 11, Doc discovered the works of his favorite author, Jules Verne. From that point, he decided to dedicate his life to science.[4][6] About a year later, Doc tried digging to the center of the Earth, inspired by the 1864 novel Journey to the Center of the Earth.[4] Note: The following section is considered non-canon or is disputed in canonicity.. In his youth, Emmett played sandlot football, gaining the nickname "The Streak" due to his quick reflexes. By 1931, Emmett Brown had worked hard and had studied law, becoming a city judge. That summer, Judge Brown made his son Emmett work for him as his junior clerk in the Hill Valley Courthouse. Though he showed dedication to his job, he preferred Science over Law.[1] Emmett Brown, aged 17 Emmett Brown, aged 17 Making a friend On June 13, 1931, he met a young man (in reality his future friend, Marty McFly) who claimed to be from the Washington D.C. patent office. Initially wary of the stranger, he opened up to him after the man helped him solve Ivanov's conundrum. After explaining to the young man that he had to deliver a subpoena to Arthur McFly and required 190 proof grain alcohol as fuel for his rocket-powered drill, the two set out to accomplish these objectives. First, they managed to acquire alcohol by switching it with the soup at the Sisters of Mercy Soup Kitchen (which was run by Irving "Kid" Tannen) and having Edna Strickland deliver it to Emmett's house by allowing her to host the next meeting of the Stay Sober Society there. Then they managed to steal Arthur McFly's hat from Kid Tannen and had Einstein sniff it and managed to track down Arthur McFly and handed him the subpoena. Afterwards, Emmett had a brief encounter with a future version of the stranger (who had traveled back in time to save Arthur McFly). By nightfall, Emmett and his friend began working on completing the rocket drill until they were interrupted by Emmett's father, who demanded that Emmett explained the Stay Sober Society's presence. Deciding to distract his father, Emmett started an argument with him regarding Emmett's future career, providing his friend clues on how to complete the rocket drill by emphasizing certain words during the argument. After the rocket drill was completed, Emmett quickly ended the argument with his father and asked the young man when he could expect a response from the patent office. However, the young man then revealed the truth about not being from the patent office and said that he required the rocket drill in order to help a friend. Prior to leaving, the young man apologized to Emmett for deceiving him and told him that he would be a great inventor. Forgiving the young man, Emmett instructed him that he should keep the rocket drill's throttle at about eight before the young man left.[1] "Single-handedly" capturing Kid Tannen In the months that followed, Emmett became a fully realized inventor and was working on creating a rocket car for his demonstration at the Hill Valley Expo using Einstein, who was accidentally left behind, as a test subject. On August 25, Emmett encountered his friend once again and demonstrated his rocket car to him. However, Emmett quickly lost control of the car, which ended up stranding Einstein on the roof of the Courthouse and then crashed into a bill board on another building. Shortly afterwards, Edna Strickland (who had come to dislike Emmett following the incident with Stay Sober Society) came to him and referred to his rocket car as a public hazard and mocked the very idea of flying vehicles. During their argument, Emmett's future self saved Einstein from the roof, which left Emmett wondering how Einstein managed to come down. With Einstein safe, Emmett turned his attention to his rocket car and climbed on to the roof in order to figure out how to bring it down. After pulling the car out of the bill board and repairing it, Emmett was taken hostage by Kid Tannen, who had fled to the roof in order to escape the police. However, Emmett managed to disarm Kid after his friend managed to distract him. In a rage, Kid pushed Emmett off the building. Fortunately, Emmett managed to grab hold of a ledge. Emmett's rocket car was subsequently utilized by his friend who, along with the help of suspected arsonist "Carl Sagan", managed to apprehend Kid Tannen, who was then arrested by Danny Parker. Afterwards, Emmett was approached by Edna, who apologized for what she had said earlier. Though flattered by her apology, Emmett admitted that his rocket car was indeed a failure and that he needed a new idea, to which Edna replied that she had a few suggestions. The two then walked off towards the theater to watch Frankenstein, though they never entered due to Edna's disinterest in the movie, and started dating shortly afterwards. A Match Made in Heaven? Two months later, Emmett and Edna, then in a heavily romantic relationship, began collaborating on a "revolutionary" new invention for Emmett's display at the Hill Valley Expo, the Mental-Alignment Meter, which is designed to measure a person's likes and dislikes in order to gauge their mental condition (with Emmett himself being measured as a "Model Citizen"), when Emmett's friend reappears again while Emmett is visiting the barber shop. The stranger later visits Emmett as he is working out the bugs in the MAM, who doesn't know that he is attempting to sabotage his relationship with Edna by rigging his Mind Map to portray him as a degenerate. While the friend is there, Emmett contemplates proposing to Edna after mentioning Edna's grandfather James Strickland, but upon protest by the stranger, decides to wait until the Hill Valley Expo because it will be "more romantic" that way. However, once there, it was one disaster after another; his portable stain remover had mysteriously aged several hours, ruining the white suit Edna had given him when he tried to remove a sludge spot, local actress/singer Trixie Trotter faked being in an adulterous relationship with him in front of Edna, and when Edna confronted him about ruining her grandfather's wedding suit and having an affair with Trixie, Emmett tried to defend himself with his Mind Map card, only to discover that it now rated him as a Degenerate Criminal instead of a Model Citizen. Livid, Edna slapped him and told him she never wanted to see him again, which emotionally devastated Emmett. Later, Emmett's friend found him sitting on top of the Hill Valley Courthouse and tried to cheer him up, but Emmett stated he is beyond caring about anyone or anything anymore. When the friend told Emmett that he cares about him, Emmett suddenly became furious, blaming him for all of his recent problems, which caused his friend to get annoyed and reveal that he had once again lied about who he was, that his real name was Marty, and that Emmett was a delusional dreamer with no guts to follow any of those dreams. Fed up with being told how to live his life, Emmett declared that he would only follow his own advice and his own ideas from then on. When a lightning bolt from a thunderstorm crashed in the distance, Emmett suddenly had an epiphany about the rocket car: the secret to making it fly wasn't rockets, but static electricity! Giddy with excitement over his new idea, Emmett was prepared to go home and begin making the modifications when the Courthouse facade gave way under his feet, causing him to fall off the clock tower and become entangled in a rope and pulley system that had been used to hoist up a pair of dog statues adorning the clock. Marty managed to save him using the portable stain remover and some Tarzan-like ingenuity, after apologizing to Emmett and agreeing to help finish the new Electrokinetic Levitator in time for the Expo. Destiny Revealed Young Emmett earns his scientist hair! Young Emmett earns his scientist hair! On the day that Emmett was supposed to fly the Levitator, he was approached by Edna, who ordered him to shut the experiment down, to which he refused. Later, he was approached by "Carl Sagan", who claimed to be a scientist and had a business proposal for Emmett, which would have meant leaving the Expo, so he refused before being chloroformed and dumped into Professor Jacques Douteux's bathysphere, whilst the real Douteux was replaced by Sagan. Marty, who had distracted Edna from shutting Emmett's booth by revealing her as the arsonist of Kid Tannen's original speakeasy, later retrieved Emmett from the bathysphere after threatening to suffocate him by squashing the air hose leading into the bathysphere, leading to "Douteux" giving in and letting him out before fleeing the scene. Emmett went directly to his booth and began installing the final component of the Levitator, and was ready to fly when he was interrupted by the arrival of his father, who demanded that Emmett cease the demonstration, believing it to be dangerous and foolhardy. With some help from Marty, Emmett and his father patched things up and Emmett successfully launched the Electrokinetic Levitator, to the delight of the Expo. Unfortunately, a flaw in the design caused the static currents to interfere with the steering device, causing a devastating crash that caused Emmett to be banned from the Expo for the next five decades. (It is presumed he crashed into the nearby House of Glass exhibit, because he later mentions to Marty that he shouldn't reenter the main hall until all of the broken glass is swept up.) After making his way out of the crash site, Emmett found Marty out in the parking lot, looking rather sullen. When he asked what's wrong, Marty told him it's got nothing to do with him. When pressed further, Marty gave Emmett a folded piece of paper, ordering him not to look at it until he got the Key to the City. Initially confused, Emmett agreed and bade his friend farewell. Unfazed by the disaster of the Levitator, Emmett became even more devoted than ever to pursuing his dreams as a great scientist. On the Manhattan Project By 1943, Emmett Brown was a professor at the California Institute of Technology. He left his class by telling his students to work on the Jacobian conjecture, knowing that since he didn't teach a math class, they'd be thoroughly occupied. He confronted the head of the university, Robert Millikan, with the revelation that he is aware that the top scientific minds from the facility are being sent to work on a top secret think tank by to work on a project for the government to benefit the war effort. Robert tells him that Emmett's name did come up for the project, but he wasn't told about it. He is told that the vetting process requires an interview at his home, and possibly a psychiatric evaluation, and he's afraid that once the interviewers saw Emmett's apartment, he'd be disappointed in the outcome. Emmett tells him that he has a solution, and the interview is scheduled. At the interview, Lieutenant General Leslie Groves and Vannevar Bush are impressed with how orderly the home is, telling Emmett that his co-workers had described him as more chaotic. He's told that the orderly nature of the apartment speaks to the disciplined mind they are after. General Groves spots a book on needlepoint, and asks Emmett about it. Emmett explains that he doesn't like to dismiss anything, as anything can lead to a breakthrough, impressing Vannevar Bush. As the interview is ending, Bush steps on the mail that had been delivered through the mail slot. Upon picking it up, he realizes that the mail is addressed to Mrs. Gomez, Emmett's landlady, and tells Emmett that they will be
