Shocktober 2018: Episode 1 - 1922

Before there was a Marvel Cinematic Universe that launched with 2008's Iron Man, there was almost a different Iron Man there was almost a different Iron Man. It's hard to imagine a version of Iron Man without Robert Downey Jr. but it's a reality we almost could have had. This version of the story differs quite a lot from the version we know today, but would it have made a good movie? Would we have gotten an Avengers movie with a Toby Maguire Spider-Man? Probably not but it's still fun to imagine. Written By: Alfred Gough & Miles Millar & David Hayter Logline: The origin story of Marvel's Avenger Iron Man! When Tony Stark realizes his tech is being stolen and used to create illegal weapons he must navigate the world of conspiracy to get to the bottom of this treachery.
