He was the original Marty McFly, and they filmed a whole lot of the movie with him before deciding he just didn't work right as the character. The first part of Michael J. Fox's filming, he spent a lot of time doing reaction shots to scenes already filmed with other actors reacting to Stoltz. He would work on "Family Ties" during the day and film his catch-up shots on "BTTF" at night, getting almost no sleep.

While the Eric Stoltz thing is well known, the filming of reactions to his previously filmed scenes, according to the script mind you, is not fascinating at all as that is how they do it out there in Hollywood when they change out a cast member. Understanding that movies are not filmed in the final sequential order, it's easy to redistribute filming to allow for such a thing with relatively minor budgetary changes. The fact that it was Fox, who was at the time involved in very successful show and a parabolically rising star, Hollywood did what is normally done lest lose Fox or pay more for his services (ya, you got it right, that adds to the budget that is already in flux due to scheduling.

I'm sure your head was buzzing from the rush of endorphins expecting wide applause, acceptance, and OMG's towards your take but we all already know you really shouldn't have posted it at all given you didn't really know what your were talking about from the onset, leaving all of us to wonder why the **** did you even post a reply.
