Short Circuit vs Back to the Future?

Question

Which movie is better? Why?

Answer 1

Well you'd have to start with the music score which Back to the Future has Johnny 5 beat by far. If you like robot movies then watch Short Circuit. Between the two they really can't be compared.

Answer 2

Back to the Future.  

Answer 3

Back to the Future is WAY better.

The plot and acting is better, and the movie isn't as "aged" as Short Circuit is now.

Answer 4

I couldn't get back to the future,

because, I had a short circuit.

Back to the Future. It is a blast from the past. <}:-})

Answer 5

This should not even be a question. Back to the Future is an extremely well thought out film and it works alone or as apart of a trilogy. Short Circuit is just silly.

Answer 6

How can you compare the 2?   Short circuit was a cute movie but it isn't in the same league as Back to the Future

Answer 7

Back to the Future.  

Answer 8

Short Circuit I Love that Cute Robot

Answer 9

Both are great movies. Back to the future is a bit more "classic" and definitely alot more well-known.

I agree, since Short Circuit deals more with "technology" than BTTF, it's a little more dated, as the technology/computers are VERY 80s'

BUT I'll still love Short Circuit forever.   It's an awesome movie

As are the Back to the Future movies (especially the 1st 2)  are awesome movies as well

Can't say which is "Better" They're both great.. just "different"

I think it's an "apples and oranges" situation

Answer 10

Back to the Future!  No 5 is ANNOYING!!!  (And so is Steve Guttenberg)

Answer 11

Has to be Back to the Future.  I consider Back to the Future one of the best 50 movies of all time.  All 3 were great movies.  Very entertaining, the type of movie you stop to watch every time you stumble upon it when flipping through the channels.  I really like Short Circuit also and think it is a under rated movie.  It doesnt get a lot of mention when it comes to Sci Fi movies and I believe it should.  I just dont think there are many movies that can match up with BTTF.  

Answer 12

Back to the Future. It is smarter, funnier, and more original.

Answer 13

Back To the Future

Michael J fox did a great job!!

Answer 14

Back To the Future....

I think it was better written and better acted

Answer 15

Definitely Back to the Future...it has a chase scene with terrorists and a crazy scientist who electrocutes himself. What more could you want?

Answer 16

BTTF is by far a better picture.  Storyline and well thought-out plot, defining and iconic-like characters (there will never be another "Biff"), special fx, music score, all make it a better movie, in my humble opinion.  

Answer 17

I love em both!, but Back to the Future is better, not funnier, but better! It is very entertaining and so is Short Circuit, but Back to the Future  just has a better, funer story that I love and Back to the Future is way more suspenseful and keeps you at the edge of your seat while Short Circuit doesn't.

Answer 18

Back to the Future.  Way better story line.

Answer 19

Hands down...Back to the Future!!
