Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

"Sorta" is right. Thomas F. Wilson doesn't get anywhere near the credit he deserves!
Think about it: Christopher Lloyd only had to play two roles ("present day" Doc and 1955 Doc). Michael J. Fox only had to play three roles ("present day" Marty, 2015 middle-aged Marty, and Marty's son). Thomas F. Wilson had to play seven different roles (initial-1985 Biff who was Marty's dad's boss, 1955 Biff, changed-1985 Biff with the car detailing business, 2015 elderly Biff, Griff, alternate-1985 Biff-as-Trump-expy, and Mad-Dog), and all of them had to be way more different from each other than the Doc or Marty variants! It was by far the most brilliant acting in the whole franchise, and that was a franchise with a lot of great acting.
And he didn't even get "star" billing for it! It's a crime, I tell you!
To be fair, Fox also played his daughter in part 2 and his ancestor (Seamus?) in part 3, but rather briefly.
WTF I never realized that. And for good reason: I'm re-watching the scene now and I still don't quite believe it! I always knew something was a little "off" about her, but I thought she was being played as neurodivergent or something, IDK.
Seamus, though, I should've remembered. That's on me.
She is a little weird. IIRC, at some point she looks directly at the camera. And I always just assumed she was played by Fox, was she not? I didn't confirm.
