content: If you look across all 3 movies, you will notices that the Jones family has been involved in the manure business for a LONG time (at least since 1888).

content: Yes, I also noticed "D. Jones, manure hauling" written on the little white board where Dave was ranting about his flux capacitor shirts getting a cease and desist letter form the movie company.

content: Yes, look at the name on the truck Biff crashes into int he first movie. And look at the name of the wagon in the third one.It's one of many things they kept constant across the series - far better than some movies manage in one single movie. Like the mall where Doc is experimenting with the time machine. Twin Pines Mall, right? When Marty goes back in time escaping the Libyans, he crashes into a small pine tree. When he gets back and rushes to the mall to hopefully save Doc, the name of the mall is now the Lone Pine Mall.Many many others like this throughout the movies, part of what makes it such an awesome series.

content: It's surprising how many "Easter Eggs" and such are found in that movie. There are several videos on youtube that document them. I watched one a couple of weeks ago and was surprised at how many I never noticed, despite having watched the entire trilogy more times than I want to admit. For example, the mailbox smashed when Marty goes back in time has the name "Peabody" on it. When the farmer, Peabody, and his family come out to investigate all the noise, the son (with the comic book) is called "Sherman". An obvious reference to Mr. Peabody and Sherman of cartoon time traveling fame (via the WABAC machine), yet I never picked up on it.
