Title: Jules & Verne's Future

I was wondering what would happen to Jules & Verne in the future?
I say they grew up to be scientists like Doc, re-invented the DeLorean Time Machine, made friends with Marty Jr and took him on many time-travelling adventures.

I actually see Verne being more like Marty, which is loosely inspired by his characterization in The Animated Series. Jules takes after his father a little more, but I don't think he was quite as uptight as portrayed in The Animated Series.
I thought it'd be neat for Marty Jr to eventually end up with Jules' daughter. When you think about it, it seems only fitting - when you consider Doc and Marty are such good friends. While it's not all too common for childhood friends to end up tying the knot, that does happen some of the time.
As far as the time machine goes, I can guess Marty would do the bulk of his time travel adventures in late '80s - as he's probably end up marrying Jennifer in the early '90s, and his music career might take off soon afterward. So he wouldn't have as much oh an interest in time travel.
I think there would come a time where Doc might decide to give the time travel a little rest. I figure the time machine would be unused between 2005 and 2016. I have both Doc's third child and granddaughter finding out about the time machine on their own. With the overhaul rejuvination, I figured Doc would still be alive by 2016 - even though he'd over 100 years old, with the years he spent in the past. I can see Jules picking up on where his father left off, by the time his father finally kicks the bucket.
So, by 2016, Doc is still basically the mastermind behind the time travel stuff.

I would say that Jules grows up to be a science teacher and a little league baseball coach. And that Verne works for a video game company.

I don't really see Jules or Verne being much into sports. Was Jules into sports on The Animated Series? I can see Verne for a video game company (maybe Nintendo) before his rock star career takes off. I wonder how long that family had settled back in the 20th century, before The Animated Series started. It seems like it was maybe a few years, as even Claa seemed to be well-adjusted to the era. Jules and Verne were nine and seven when the series started, so they were maybe in the future for about two or three years already. It looks like Jules and Verne are actually supposed to be four and six at the end of the trilogy.

Jules was a huge baseball fan in the Animated Series.

Yeah, I just read about that in the other topic. :) Maybe Verne was more into video games than rock music - but I'd almost think if he likes one, then he'd also like the other. Granted, he could just be someone who like listening to rock music, but not really playing it - sort of like me. I really don't know anything about guitars - so I'm not sure if Shake It Up by The Cars would be a "riff in B", but I am pretty sure it's not a "blues riff in B".
