[post_page_title]The chicken paradox[/post_page_title]
Marty’s resourceful and heroic, but he does have one huge, glaring character flaw. Namely, he’ll do absolutely anything, and we mean anything, if someone calls him “chicken.” In fact, the ridiculous, self-destructive lengths he’ll go to include committing crimes – with provocation that most eleven-year-olds would yawn at.
But the real issue isn’t even that – it’s that the movies only remember it when they need to. In the first movie, when Marty’s having an existential crisis over his blah band, why doesn’t Jennifer call him a chicken for not trying harder? Wait, can you call him a chicken for not being a chicken, or would that destroy reality?
