The 'Back to the Future' meme franchise stems from the 1985 sci-fi classic starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. The most popular templates feature Doc Brown frantically explaining time-travel paradoxes or the iconic ending scene where the DeLorean takes flight. These memes are widely used to comment on nostalgic longing for the past, the absurdity of current events, or 'predicting' the future. Whether it's Marty McFly's 'Your kids are gonna love it' or Doc's 'Great Scott,' the template remains a staple for internet culture to satirize how quickly history repeats itself or how poorly the present compares to our expectations of the future.
