This seemed dorky enough to share in it's own thread.
Movie synopsis is exactly what you'd expect.
I fully expect Lloyd to barely be in it.

Christopher Lloyd and Lea Thompson are going to be in a Hallmark movie about a time traveling train

- Start date
He was barely in that clip. Even for a random spot that was just barely reading the cue cards.

Not a chance. They wouldn't keep that secret. They don't do twists in these films.
was Lloyd's voice always this deep?
oh yeah, I hear it too!

Yeah they needed a few more takes on that "great Scott, have we?"
Gave me some Orson Wells vibes.
Wow, Lea Thompson was at least trying a little, but I suspect they just caught Lloyd while he was sleepwalking.
Even in 2015 he looked pretty weary and I was worried he wasn't going to last much longer, yet here we are 6 years later and he's looking more spritely! I had also noticed he was doing more recently, was involved with the BTTF Musical promo work, more movies and guest star slots - I'm guessing its not like he needs the money at this point, so I wonder what it is; a love of acting?
It's funny you say that because he looks way more … alive? awake? … now than he did 5-10 years ago.
not as bad as that time some journalist made him watch footage of a Delorean Crysis mod
Lloyd was great in Mr.Nobody, so he still has it in him.
It's funny these two get paired up because do they even interact in the Back To the Future movies? I think there's like one scene they're both in, haha. They were talking about this on Podcast The Ride, in reference to a Goosebumps 4D film directed by Joe Dante that they're both in.

Totally agree - I read in some places he had a mild stroke, but couldn't find anything verified. This article covers some of the other stuff.

I bet they had him on set for like 2 days.
He shows up on the train at the start, shows up 1 or 2 times during the film to offer some wisdom to the protagonist, and then shows up at the end to nod approvingly as she gets with Guy McHandsome.
Unless it ends up being one of those more somber ones where after changing for the better she's still sent back to the future and then has to start over with Guy McHandsome.

That's the whole reason for the promotion, and probably the movie itself (though it won't have any actual relationship to it story-wise… they don't have the rights). It's one big nostalgia connection monstrosity thingy
