This disappointing car seems like it is just waiting for hollywood to ruin another childhood franchise.

No Flux Capacitor, no nostalgia at all other then them limiting the production run to 88... This has nothing in common with a Delorean

Modern Hollywood takes a generic script and slaps a popular IP on it.... This is a taking a generic car and doing the same thing

Modern Hollywood should do a biopic about the original car executive of that name and call it "Back To The Future: You Da Man, Delorean!" and then tie it into the Star Wars universe with him as a bounty hunter of Empire drug enforcement agents so that they can plaster Taco Bell drink cups with it. Ya, that's the ticket!

I’m pretty sure I’ve read that Robert Zemeckis owns the rights to the Back To The Future ip and has to personally evaluate any new proposed media, and he has refused to allow any remakes.
