Do you drive a car? - AdrenalinDragon - 24-Mar-2012
Alright, back in topic. Why don't we have vehicles where we don't need a license yet?

...examples? Frankly, I think people already have too much access to multi-ton vehicles that they can then use for destructive purposes.

@J.B. If we are to invent flying cars, we'd also have to build flying highways and stuff. We're not done yet.

...but why would we need highways in the air?
We could just have some sort of air traffic control...albeit a complicated one...

People flying around in the air "guided" only by air traffic controllers?
I don't think I'd go driving on the "airway."

Well, I take that back a bit...it seems like in BTTF II, there were some sort of floating markers near the actual city of Hill Valley, which are pretty reasonable.
I'd just hate to think about a highway getting in the way of the wonderful opening sequence to that movie.

"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads."
(As a side note, I balk at using the word "wonderful" to describe BTTF 2 in any way whatsoever.)

Awww. It was actually one of my favorite movies as a kid, even more than the other two.

Maybe it was the cross-cutting, maybe it was the sloppy writing (Doc insists on dragging the girl along, then he knocks her out?), maybe it was Biff's over-the-top character...I dunno, I just never got that into it. My favorite was the first one, but I think you can make a serious case for the third being the "best."

I don't know...I never really could get "into" the third, to be honest. It feels so disconnected from the time-hopping adventures of the other two movies because it's almost strictly set in one time period and just seems to be an excuse for a Western parody. Though it did a fun job of being that.
