1985 was a very good year to be Michael J. Fox. In this episode, we take a double dose of Michael J. Fox and revisit two very different movies from his unforgettable 1985: Back to the Future and Teen Wolf. Both are coming-of-age stories about young guys trying to figure out who they are—and both feature Fox at the center of the action—but that's about where the similarities end.

We dig into the stories, characters, production, cast, box office, and plenty of behind-the-scenes trivia before putting the two movies head-to-head. Which Michael J. Fox character is better? Who has the best supporting character? Which movie has the better villain? And what about the love interests?Rather than simply declaring one movie the winner, we break down Back to the Future vs. Teen Wolf category by category and see how they stack up.

In honor this massive year for Fox, we then draft the biggest years actors have had. Sometimes two huge movies, sometimes even 3-4 in one calendar year, we name most of the big ones and pick our favorites.
