Remake of Back To The Future with a solar powered DeLorean, it’d still work.
Marty: This sucker’s electrical. But the solar panels were destroyed so we need to replace them to generate the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity I need Doc: 1.21 Gigawatts! 1.21 gigawatts. Great Scott Marty: What the hell is a gigawatt? Doc: How could I have been so careless? Tom, how am I going to generate that kind of power, it can’t be done, it can’t. Marty: Doc, look, all we need is new solar panels. Doc: I’m sure that in 2025, you can pick up solar panels at every Walmart, but in 1955, we’d need more than 86 billion solar cells which would cost more than 2 trillion dollars. Marty, I’m sorry but you’re stuck here Marty: Whoa, whoa, Doc? Stuck here? I can’t be stuck here, I got a life in 2025. I got a folder of white hot memes.
