Out of all the April Fool’s pranks that either annoyed us or made us smile this year, this one actually managed to make us nostalgic. Yes, they don’t make adventure-movies like they used to.
Even though it seems ridiculous and we genuinely can’t believe anybody actually fell for Vin Diesel drifting through Tokyo in a DeLorean, we also really enjoyed seeing the good old time machine back on the streets, doing its 88 mph thing.
And if you’re still not picking up what we’re putting down, just browse through the video’s comments section where somebody says that they told their mom about it and she was really happy (until she saw the whole thing). Yes, parents everywhere or people who are generally over 30 years old were part of the BTTF generation, as it remains one of the most beloved movie franchises in history, even to this day.
Maybe Doc and Marty could have used Dom Toretto’s driving skills in a couple of instances – especially when Doc got hit by lightning in Part 2 because he was hovering around during the storm, instead of just landing the thing.
Something else we wish Toretto could do with the DeLorean would be to go back in time and erase some really annoying or ridiculous scenes. Like the way he caught Letty mid-air in the previous F&F movie during that highway chase, or every single time Roman opens his mouth for comedic relief.
