McDonald's is a fast food restaurant chain.
Behind the scenes[]
The restaurant was originally to have a brief incorporation into the trilogy. The examples included were:
- Dave McFly was working at McDonald's rather than Burger King prior to Marty McFly's travel through time.
- It was McDonald's rather than the Cafe 80's that Marty encountered Griff Tannen. The restaurant itself was shown to have a major improvement due to the addition of McWaiters which brings the food to the customers.
This idea was revisited in Back to the Future: The Musical, where Dave is shown working at McDonald's.
Real-world[]
In 1992, McDonald's included one of four toys from Back to the Future: The Animated Series in the Happy Meals.[1] The four toys were:
- Dr. Emmett Brown in the DeLorean time machine.
- Einstein in the Jules Verne Train.
- Marty McFly on the hoverboard.
- Verne Brown in what appeared to be the Junkmobile from the episode "A Verne by Any Other Name".
The commercial itself was narrated by Doc, who was voiced by Dan Castellaneta.
In the McDonald's Film Fest of 1994, a VHS copy of Back to the Future was included among the selections of movies.
