《Alexander Creed: Re-Life》Chapter 96: Three Einsteins
Advertisement
Why not do the film commentating and inspector job together with comic booking work? Alexander could simultaneously be on two fronts at the same time and save him from the dilemma of having to choose between two priorities.
He did just that as he returned to Universal Studios Lot and acquainted himself more with the filmmaking process and everything related to Back to the Future.
It had to be said that everything was surely different than what it had been. As Alexander got to know more about the work and the crew, the work and the crew also got to know him.
At first, everyone found it weird that a kid was being hounded over with questions by Director Zemeckis and semi-producer Gale.
Of course, it didn't take long for them to know who he is and they hounded him along with curious Rob and Bob.
They just couldn't help but ask though as the idea man behind the thing they are working on has finally revealed himself.
Every one of them had more or less read up on the three-parter script and can't help but marvel at its ingenuity and perfection.
Now, they were left reveling at the 7-year-old kid who wrote the picture book that everything was adapted on.
Alexander had no choice but to sate most of their curiosity before his grandfather would brag about his achievements once again. He doesn't want everyone to look at him with Gollum eyes, anyone else could only feel perturbed when that happens.
Thus, Alexander exceeded his monthly socializing quota or even more. If he quanticized it back to a one-day percentage, there was no doubt that it would be the same as how Deku would quanticize his One for All smash at 1,000,000%.
Fortunately, he decided to work on his comic book work at old Sullivan's makeshift office while he was away for the preparation of the Old West and 2015 sets.

It was also fortunate that Rob and Bob kept those shocking details to themselves. Maybe they are also following old Mr. Creed's lead and want to shock people with a shocking lethal weapon fuelled by Alex in one full sweep
For someone who has suffered, they must want others to suffer the same fate as well.
-----
Eventually, everyone got used to one another and Alexander was free to observe everything happening in the set as he pleased.
A filming day went on and while every actor and crew was on break, he would make rounds to get the quirks of everybody and make assessments of them.
The textbook crew, film personnel, and department operations had already been acclimatized by him. It would be without doubt that Alexander's footsteps as a producer are starting with a steady foundation.
Aside from film factors, there were still other things to check and Alexander found it much refreshing to compare and contrast with all the important casts of the story.
Back to the Future of his past timeline isn't his new version of Back to the Future after all.
Among the top of Alexander's casting interests is the dog who played Einstein.
In Back to the Future, Einstein was portrayed by a dog named Tiger, trained by an animal trainer that Alexander designated as Mr. Dog Trainer.
Tiger, as Mr. Dog Trainer would put it, is a Catalan sheepdog. The dog and trainer duo was here to film today because Einstein in the script would be the first time traveling dog.
It was somehow customary for Alexander to give Tiger a pat whenever he is around. It's not that he was being a dog person but because he wants to investigate further into the animal actor problem.
It is said that aside from the troublesome child actors and their childish quirks and filming policies, animal actors are trouble as well.

Fortunately, Tiger was trained and Mr. Dog Trainer wasn't that much of an animal rights 'Karen'.
As far as Alexander was concerned, Tiger should just do his part well and he wouldn't need to share his Einstein dog actor glory with another dog.
If he remembered it right, Tiger had already become too old when the sequels were filmed so he had to be replaced. Since everything was now back-to-back, Tiger could even play the part of 1955's Copernicus.
At the end of it all, doggy Tiger should be cemented in film history along with the likes of German Sheperd Rin Tin Tin.
-----
Of course, after Alexander was done with suspecting and inspecting the Einstein dog of the BttF set, he also had to move on with the Einstein-esque character of the set.
"Ah! What did I tell you, Alex!? EIGHTY-EIGHT MILES PER HOOOOOUUUR!!!" Christopher Lloyd, in his white radiation suit costume, shouted to practice his not-yet iconic line as he saw Alex coming close.
"That's amazing Mr. Lloyd but it is too loud this time of the day." Alexander could only shake his head at the man. "Your time-traveling DeLorean is also fake and hasn't even run to that speed yet."
"GREAT SCOTT! I've made a fool of myself." Christopher was still caught up in actor training stuff and had to be Doc Brown for most of the time.
Alexander could only shake his head whenever this happens and can only distract himself by spotting the difference between the normal Lloyd and Doc Brown.
In all honesty, he really couldn't detract much from it. Like all others, Doc Brown's role was so cemented in his mind that whatever Christopher Lloyd does would always be Doc Brown.
It would seem that Alexander had already type-casted the poor actor before his time-traveling Einstein-esque role was even established. It also didn't help that Lloyd would pull his role training around him to just enforce that connection.
Anyways, it was still interesting to be able to interact with the legendary 'Emmett Brown'.
It was all acting and role-playing but he somehow can't help but feel caught up in it. Alexander could only commend the casting director and Innovative Rob to be able to snag Christopher Lloyd to play the fated role.
According to some news he got from the past-future, Lloyd threw the script in the trash until eventually being convinced by Zemeckis.
Alexander had no idea about how things have changed now but he was still relieved to have this dedicated actor in front of him play the role once again.
Christopher was perfect in his role in the past and there was no denying that he was perfect for the role now that he interacts with him up close.
'Doc Brown' went on and was still 'caught-up' in his practice and Alexander could only give a complimentary nod to his perfect portrayal of the semi-mad scientist character.
Whenever he thought about such a hyper-focused and misunderstood persona, Alexander would inadvertently think of another but cartoonish Einstein in the future.
----
"Hey, Doc!" He called out to make things amusing.
"Yes. Alex what do you need from good old Doc Brown." 'Doc Brown' asked.
"Can you say 'Wubba lubba dub dub' in the same way you say 'Great Scott'?"
'Doc Brown' had no idea why his 'assistant' requested him to do so but he complied and shouted with usual 'great scott' shock. "Wubbalubba-dubdub!!"
It was unfortunate that Tiger wasn't beside Lloyd. If he was, then all three 'Einsteins' would have cemented the moment.

Trying my hand at a hopefully unique LitRPG system. No stats or number crunching though. Kinda scifi, kinda fantasy but scifi elements only really become plot relevant after the first arc. Won't be doom and gloom but will get really dark at times. Updates twice a week at minimum (2-3k words), sometimes more when school decides to let me out of the pillory lol. Inspired by a writing prompt on reddit and WarHammer 40k orks.

Those Zombies Again
One day Sam wakes up in a world full of zombies and tries to survive.PSFirst of all i would not recommend this novel if you haven't read like hundred of novels already. Its pretty weird and depressing novel.This story is told almost completely from MC point of view. Third person.MC is a pretty ugly random guy with different psychological problems. He is antisocial and limited person.Lore - Since MC is limited and barely interested in people or just surroundings, you will get pretty limited descriptions on stuff, it was meant to be like that.Characters - Obviously for the same reason, you will not see much characters, usually you wont get their description or even names.Fights - I personally hate those fights in novels which take like few chapters to describe some shitty encounters. For example MC is making his "move" and then you get half chapter of description of his thoughts and the ways his face is looking, and the way like his opponent surprised and the way crowd is reacting and so on. I really hate all that shit so fights in this novel will be described not that often, only if an equal or a new opponent, and only in a strict and straightforward way, no bullshit.Now this novel is not exactly fantasy, its more like grim realistic-fantasy.But i will have to explain what i mean. Lets take rape in most novels as an example. Usually MC will be justified to rape a girl one way or another. Common example is aphrodisiac. Or the girl were trying to kill him so he had to "punish" her. Or she just happened to jump on his thing and then after rape she become his girlfriend etc, Those are examples of "fan service" in novel. So MC would be justified and readers woun't feel too uncomfortable to read something like that.So there is no "fan service" in this novel, like at all. You will have to read some stuff that will make you feel uncomfortable and you woun't like it.Common sense also means that there is barely gonna be any "random" events which MC is gonna be part of. No treasures and superpowers he founds because he is "special". He will not meet antagonists on his way.This novels world will not spin around MC in any way. He will usually sit in his deep cave and no one around will give a damn about him or even know of his existence.So this novel is not for you to have fun and enjoy reading. Not to make you feel comfortable, satisfied or happy.Its probably the opposite.There are some standards which novel usually sticks to in order to become popular. Obviously i did not meet those standards at all.
