So, what's this all about then?

This site concerns the movie Back to the Future and it's sequels, and is aimed more at hard-core fans than normal people. If you are not a particularly hard-core fan, then I suggest first checking out a site which is more accessible, and much better all round: www.bttf.com

As a fan of the trilogy, I was trying to find out some esoteric info, which meant doing loads of searching, including the message boards at www.bttf.com. It struck me that there is loads of information that fans look for, but which is quite difficult to find - so I decided to set this site up.

Why 'Almanac'?

The dictionary gives one definition of almanac as: A usually annual reference book composed of various lists, tables, and often brief articles relating to a particular field or many general fields. This site should really be called a miscellany, but there isn't one of those in the trilogy!

This site is intended as a quick-loading easy-to-browse repository for BTTF information. I don't intend to have pictures or sounds or stuff that has been done perfectly well on other sites, just hard info! One of the things that annoys me about the internet is that when you are searching it, the same information comes up again and again. For this reason I've tended to link to stuff on other people's sites if possible, rather than simply copying and pasting for the sake of it.

One other thing...

If you can contribute, please do so. One of the reasons I could find the information I was looking for originally was due to the fans on www.bttf.com sharing their knowledge, for which I am very grateful. I will give you full credit for any contributions you make.
