Michael J. Fox

When we saw the Back to the Future movies for the first time, there were a few things we wanted: a DeLorean, a Hoverboard skateboard, and those badass Nike Air Mags.

Well now, you can get at least one of those things. Nike is releasing 1,500 pairs of the “2011 Nike Mag” sneaker, which is modeled after the glowing pair that appeared in the 1989 movie, Back to the Future II. The sneaker is a replica of the fictional shoes that Marty McFly wore. You remember, the ones that laced themselves?

The shoes are being auctioned off and all proceeds will go to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s disease research. The very first pair went live last night, and the winning bidder paid a whopping $37,500. That’s a sh-t ton of money for a pair of shoes, but an admirable donation to Parkinson’s research.

Michael J. Fox may be making a return to television. He's currently in talks to become a regular on Rescue Me, which stars Dennis Leary.

Michael's character would play Leary's love rival on the show. If the deal goes through, viewers will see Fox as early as next season for several episodes.

Michael hasn't done any acting lately because of his Parkinson's disease and has spent most of his time devoted to doing research on the disease. It would be nice to see him back for this!
