What did Ben Affleck say about Back to the Future?
Speaking to Jimmy Kimmel, Affleck recounted how he remembers seeing the original 1985 film and loving it, and how he inadvertently became a stalker of sorts to Christopher Lloyd in the future.
“I remember going to a showing of Back to the Future, and being on the subway coming home and making the conscious decision, ‘that is the best movie ever made.’ And then, a year later, I think Christopher Lloyd was doing a play in Boston . . . I saw him on the street, I had never seen a celebrity or an actor before in my life,” Affleck said. “I was probably 11 or 12. And I realized later, I followed him for 10 blocks. I literally stalked the man.”
Kimmel then took to joking about his longstanding feud with actor and Affleck’s friend Matt Damon, asking if Affleck had the ability to remake the movie, would he make sure the two never met. Affleck said that he might, then joked that he also wouldn’t sleep with his mother.
“I’d hold a picture of him and it’d get erased, and also not sleep with my mom,” joked Affleck.
