In Back to the Future, Marty uses his father’s love of sci-fi books to scare him by pretending to be an alien called Darth Vader from the planet Vulcan. This meme shows the realisation later when the father watches Star Wars (the father is played by Crispin Glover)
The part that was actually in the released movie ends at 0:45. (You can also tell by the fact that the audio/video very obviously changes to daily footage at that point.)
See also the scene afterward where George tells “Calvin” about the encounter, which IMO worked way better than actually showing the rest of it:
This one took me a minute. The actor in the pic played Marty McFly’s dad in Back to the Future. There is a scene in the movie where Marty is trying to scare his young dad, and wakes him up wearing a hazmat suit with face covering, putting headphones over his ears to blast Van Halen and calling himself Darth Vader.
Agreed, but without showing it, it would be extremely confusing to the audience. After watching the extended scene, it would have been really bad if they left that all in. Plus the scene is funny with the eddie van halen tape, and also uses the contents of Doc’s luggage with the hair dryer for another gag.
What?

Back To The Future, where Marty McFly calls himself Darth Vader in front of his terrified father, while pretending to be an alien.
Oooh, ok, that’s hilarious. Had no idea about that! Was that in the movie? No recollection!
If you can’t quote every line from memory, clearly you need to watch the whole trilogy again.
That is a fair argument.
Goes to pop some popcorn
Yep! Sounds like it’s time for a rewatch!
It was at least partially a deleted scene actually? I’m not sure anymore either… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaYADHcpdng

Whaaat!? I have no recollection of this! Was this is in the final cut?
This is how the scene was in the final cut: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHZctSnNrsw
And then there’s a follow-up scene the next day, where George tells “Calvin Klein” about the encounter.
Having George retell it worked way better than showing it directly, IMO.
