Are you sure the third Buford gang member wasn't Billy Needles? And the last name you gave Sharon was Schumacher, if I remember correctly.

Names I gave them:

The Clock Tower Lady ~ Carol Vincent (Didn't give her maiden name)

The Pinheads ~ Denny Lindstrom, Robbie Wooderson, and Josh Friedman

Buford's gang ~ Stubble, Ceegar, and Buck (From the Paradox script)

Needles' gang ~ Ray Unger, Walter "Butch" Wynne, and Joey Skinner Jr. aka "Buzz"

The waitress in Lou's Cafe ~ Sarah Carruthers

Harold and Loretta's dad ~ Dick Wilson (I decided to incorporate names from other scripts into some of the unnamed characters)

Cherry Coke guy ~ Didn't name him

Run for Class President girl ~ Didn't name her

Huey Lewis lookalike ~ Mr. Lewis (No relation to Huey, despite similarities)

Hoverboard girl ~ Didn't name this one

Skateboard boy ~ Didn't name this one

Video game boys ~ Didn't name this one

I guess we both like Carol Vincent and Sarah Carruthers. Now that you mention it, it was Sharon Schumacher that I gave to vote for Class President Girl. Billy Needles is actually much younger than Buford's gang, and his gang had replaced Buford's gang in the Parker Universe - after the latter was arrected and shipped to New York.

I probably will use Stubble, Ceegar, and Buck as the nicknames of Buford's gang. With Biff's gang, I decided to have fun with their nicknames - and that's how I came up with their real names. I did the same with Needles' gang, even though I came up with the nicknames myself. I suppose I maybe should've just had Rex be Rex - and maybe have Ray be one of the Unger siblings that Jules and Verne were friends with. Oh, well...

We missed a few from Part Three. There are the three saloon regulars, and also the undertaker. I guess you're only listing characters who had lines, right? Although, Sarah Caruthers didn't have any lines - but she was featured prominently in the cafe scene.

I guess you also like Joey Skinner for Skinhead, but have you come up with real names for the other two? Derrick Daniel Drake was what I came up with for 3D, and I came up with Mitch Mattis for Match.

Another character that's unnamed is the train engineer in 1885.

I'll probably use the same names.

Sounds cool! :) Have you thought of real names for Buford's gang. I guess one of them would be something-or-other Wynne. :)

I haven't thought of real names. Back to the Old West was the last time I planned on using those characters.

I have name for all of Rissy Unger's gang, Rajan Unger's gang, Kimberly O'Malley's gang, and Ziff Tannen's gang. I probably won't bother as much with the gangs of Billy Needles, Charlie Needles, Jiff Tannen, Russ Unger, and Howard Needles.

In Part One, there also the couple that acts astonished that George punched out Biff - and Marty pushes pass them in a desperate attempt to get his parents together. I think they're portrayed by different actors in Part Two, though - and, this time, they don't have any lines.

needles1987 - January 29, 2008 11:25 PM (GMT)
I never noticed that.

Let's see, what else is there? Maybe the photographer in Part III.

Here a couple more we missed: the Blast from the Past salesclerk from 2015 and the Western Union man from 1955.

bttf44 - February 6, 2008 12:36 AM (GMT)
Here are some more:

the Colt salesman
the Deputy
Toothless and Eyepatch (the man to join the saloon regulars)
