Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) and Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) are on a new mission to save the future and the past. Picking up exactly where the previous film left off, Doc leads Marty into the 21st century to save his future son from a horrible mistake. But Marty makes a mistake of his own when he brings an almanac of sports game results back to the 20th century—allowing bully Biff Tannen to win big bets and become the richest, most powerful man in town. Marty and Doc must use the DeLorean to return to the events of the first film and set the timeline right again; if they fail, everyone’s future is in jeopardy—to say nothing of their present....

Trivia:
In 2015, when Doc and Marty look at the USA Today newspaper and see the headline change, the following headlines and blurbs are: Across the top: 1. Slamball Playoffs Begin (Slamball would become a televised sport in 2002) 2. Cubs Sweep Series In 5 (a World Series sweep would be in 4 wins thus implying the playoffs have been expanded in the future) 3. Marshall Runs 3min. Mile 4. Washington Prepares For Queen Diana's Visit (the film was released 8 years before Princess Diana's death) On The Side: 1. Thumb Bandits Strike (Reference to an unused concept of Bob Gale's that no one would use paper money but would have their thumbprint to pay for things. Thus leading to crimes of thieves cutting off people's thumbs) 2. Man Killed By Falling Litter 3. Tokyo Stocks Are Up 4. Swiss Terrorist Threat 5. Shredding For Charity 6. President Says She's Tired 7. Queen Diana... (Repeated Headline) 8. Kelp Prices Increase 9. Pitcher Suspended For Bionic Arm Use 10. Slamball Playoffs (Repeated Headline) 11.
