Back to the Future 3 is nowhere near on par with 2.

This is some ragebait right here

Wtf do you mean, part 3 is awesome and has some of the best humor in the series. Sure it's a bit derivative, but that doesn't stop it from being a better 3rd in a trilogy than most others. It's also got a lot of quotable moments, I quote this for just about anything that's hot

Well, I suppose if you had a straight stretch of track with a level grade, and you weren't haulin' no cars behind you, and if you can get the fire hot enough, and I'm talkin' about hotter than the blazes of hell and damnation itself... then yes

1 and 2 are about even. 3 is a little lower than them, but not by much.

The first two really are parts 1 and 2 of a story. The 3rd completely changes the scenery, which gives some people the impression it's not as good. It is though , and it ends the story well.

Then there's the fun fact that parts 2 and 3 were filmed at the same time. So the impression the films give is backwards from how they were made.

I've always preferred 3 over 2, even as a kid. The future stuff and the alternate 1985 are fun,, but the third act feels like such a retread of the first one, especially in a marathon situation.

I'm considering it better. Not that part 2 is bad, but I like part 3 more.
