Goofs
As you enter Hill Valley town square and approach the Courthouse, look down the alley to the right of the courthouse to see a giant styrofoam cup of coffee accidentally left on the miniature set.

Quotes
Biff Tannen: Doc, Doc! My flux capacitor's out, Doc! Help me, help! Hey please, Doc, help me! Help! Doc I'm heading for a waterfall. It's a LAVA-fall! Please, Doc, help me! Please bump me!

Crazy credits
Because this is presented as a ride "experience" and not a film, no credits are shown on screen. However, "directed by Douglas Trumball", "Music by Alan Silvestri", "Special Effects by ILM" and several other credits are posted on a plaque near the exit to the ride.

Alternate versions
Briefly, the Pepsi sign in 2015 Hill Valley was replaced by a Toyota logo.

Very Cool Ride

I went on this ride before I saw the movie. It is one cool experience! The Doc himself guides you on your ride through time to catch Biff Tannen, who has stolen the original time machine. The IMAX screen makes you feel you are actually flying through time. The moving 8-seat DeLorean helps too. Watch the little movie screen on the DeLorean-you get to see Biff beg Doc to save him. Quite a satisfying moment. The only problem is there is no Marty to help out Doc. I get the feeling he might be lonely. Still, a very cool ride! Thanks Mom and Dad-they took me on the ride and got me the movies. (They regret it now, I'm sure.) 5 stars out of 5-due to Doc's as-ever great performance and the realness of the ride. (He DOES NOT overact!)
