The difference between BTTF and StarWars is the scale.
SW is a whole galaxy , countless characters, pretty much any scenario can be incorporated.
BTTF is smaller, domestic with its main prop, a one off secret, time machine.
Half a dozen people and a car is what made it work.
A remake is of course possible but why? Would it be improved?
