I wonder what Will Smith's take is on this...

"Michael J. Fox will be honored by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences for his contributions to film and his efforts to help cure Parkinson's disease.

The actor will receive an honorary Oscar at this year's Governors Awards, along with songwriter Diane Warren, and directors Euzhan Palcy and Peter Weir, the Academy announced Wednesday.

The Academy's Board of Governors selected the honorees for their "indelible contributions to cinema and the world at large."
Fox, who founded the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research in 2000 and was diagnosed with the disease in 1991, will receive the Academy's Hersholt Humanitarian Award

"Fox's tireless advocacy of research on Parkinson's disease alongside his boundless optimism exemplifies the impact of one person in changing the future for millions," Academy President David Rubin said in a statement.

Fox, who rose to fame as Alex P. Keaton on "Family Ties" and numerous other TV series, is also known for his work as Marty McFly in the "Back to the Future" franchise. He has won five Emmy Awards, four Golden Globes, a Grammy and two Screen Actors Guild Awards, but he has never been nominated for an Oscar."

He was a good actor. Very sad what happened to him. BTTF1 and 2 are still some of the best. Plot holes notwithstanding.

Biggest one is how does Biff get back to the future to park the delorean where he stole it? Doc explains that's impossible.

The first one is also a classic father paradox. Marty gets named after a 5 minute tryst that he's the cause of.

Youre taking Bttfs time travel too seriously. The reason it works as a franchise is that it doesn't care about those things enough to fix them

I don't believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness.

I fully support this.

BTW, theres also a popular fan theory that Marty dies like three different times during BttF2 and thats how Doc Brown just happens to show up at the right time.

It's pretty crazy that he has been dealing with Parkinson's for over 30 years now.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Well again if its Biff just parking the DeLorean could just be argued that time just didnt catch up. Hell we also really dont know where in the past he parked the DeLorean so if he had enough time to give his past self the Sports Almanac the whose to say he didnt get some bit of time to repark and vanish?

One of the biggest plot holes is Martys hand in the first film. Hes showed not to be immune to timeline changes. except in every other scene in the movie where he IS immune to timeline changes.

I think he made it perfectly clear that he does what he wants at the Oscars.

But why would he care about this situation, especially since it doesnt involve him or his family?
