Continuity

"In addition, the "To Be Continued..." caption was not added until the film was released to video."

I saw this movie in the theater as a kid, and I remember being quite excited when the words "to be continued" showed up at the end of the movie. I know that this is a referenced statement, but it is still wrong -- yes, even the BBC can make mistakes sometimes. Maybe the caption was added later, but it was not all the way until it was released on video. 24.59.148.187 21:59, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was pretty sure I heard this factoid as well. Is there any other reference to this that can be made? I'm sure the user above could have been mistaken, or could have seen the film in theaters in a late run or something? TheHYPO 19:53, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zemeckis and Gale said on the commentary that there was no caption. Alientraveller 19:53, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zemeckis and Gale could be mistaken too. Note that in the archives of this discussion several other people have noted the same. So... rather than waste time and effort hashing it out here, I'll nuance the statement to what we know is true: the Zemeckis and Gale claim it was not there. 24.59.148.187 (talk) 07:42, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
