@didyoucatchthis: How Marty McFly Met Doc Brown Have you ever wondered how Marty McFly and Doc Brown met in the first place? Despite their iconic friendship in Back to the Future, the films never actually explain it. But early drafts of the script reveal a bizarre—and definitely not family-friendly—origin story. In the original version, after blowing through his family’s fortune building the time machine, Doc Brown ends up broke. Desperate to fund his inventions, he turns to bootlegging adult films. To help sell his product to local teens, Doc recruits a rebellious teenager named Marty McFly. Yeah, that’s right—their friendship originally started as a business arrangement in the underground adult film trade. This subplot was later dropped when the filmmakers tried to sell the movie to Disney. The studio ultimately passed, calling the dynamic between Marty and his mother “too strange.” Thankfully, Universal Pictures stepped in and gave us the legendary trilogy we know and love today. So what do you think—should they have kept the original version?
