>Black Water Transit
While Tony Kaye, the controversial director once pushed off production of American History X, directed Black Water Transit, his volatile behavior is not the reason why you’ve never heard of it. An adaptation of the novel of the same name by Carsten Stroud, Black Water Transit tells the story of a shipping executive who gets caught up in a federal investigation centering on an illegal firearms dealer in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Featuring a cast that included Laurence Fishbourne and Karl Urban, the film was described as a Die Hard-esque thriller.

Black Water Transit was reported to have screened at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. Unfortunately, a seemingly never-ending stream of litigation has kept this one at bay. With lawsuits being thrown left and right, the most recent being in May of 2016, it is unlikely that audiences will see a cut of this film any time soon.

>The Day the Clown Cried
The Day the Clown Cried is an unreleased 1972 American drama film directed by and starring Jerry Lewis. It is based on a script of the same name by Joan O'Brien, who had co-written the original script with Charles Denton ten years previously.The film was met with controversy regarding its premise and content, which features a circus clown who is imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp. Lewis has repeatedly insisted that The Day the Clown Cried would never be released because it is an embarrassingly "bad work" that he is ashamed of.

Why would I care about what some fuckface from /tv/ posts on twitter kys

Quentin Tarantino's James Bond.

Paul Walker as Hitman

Jodorowskys Dune. It would have realistically been terrible but I think a good kind of terrible.

Del Toro's At the Mountains of Madness

>>86089951
There was a totally different script that got scrapped at the last minute after sets and props had already been built.

>>86089999
For one it was ~400 pages long, and the movie is 2 hr 45 min, which adds up to about ~150 pages of script (I think).

Here are some differences I remember hearing:

>no Selina Kyle (Catwoman)
>Masketta Man had a ton more screen time and was full-on Deadshot
>Black Mask was in it (maybe I really don't know)
>CIA actually shots a man before throwing him out of a plane
>CIA was supposed to be Deathstroke apparently

Everything else is speculation.

>>86090200
Most of this is lies.

Darren Aronofsky's Batman: Year One

Thomas and the Magic Railroad 2

The original plot for Scream 3. I admit that Scream 3's premise was interesting over how it explored Sidney's mom and the meta commentary of the 3rd part of a trilogy.

This would have been the first bad Cameron movie.

Now this on the other hand would have been absolute kino.

>The film's second script involved Pteranodon escaping from Isla Sorna and causing a spate of mysterious killings on the mainland, which was to be investigated by Alan Grant and a number of other characters including Billy Brennan, a naturalist named Simone, a tough military attaché, wealthy Paul Roby, and Roby's teenage son Miles. Grant's group crash-lands on the island, while a parallel investigation is being carried out on the mainland. The aviary sequence and laboratory set piece were initially much longer and more complex, including Velociraptor stealthily entering the hatchery as the team spends the night there. Sets, costumes, and props were built for this version

>Five weeks before filming began,[5] Johnston and Spielberg rejected the entire script as they were dissatisfied with it; $18 million had already been spent on the film at that time.[25] Johnston felt that the script's story was too complicated.[14] The simpler "rescue mission" plot, which had been suggested by David Koepp, was used for the film instead.[5][14] Alexander Payne and Jim Taylor began rewriting the script in July 2000.

This. Is Ron Perlman still attached to play Swamp Thing?

Paul verhoeven's Crusades movie staring arnold schwartzenegger

Come to think of it, there are a lot of cancelled arnie movies from the late 90s like that apes movie and omega man, the latter was supposed to be directed by Michael bay

kinda going along the lines of this anon >>86091709
apparently Die Hard was meant to be Schwarzenegger instead of Bruce Willis.
Would give my right nut to see prime Arnie go "Yippee ki-yay, motherfucker!".
Die Hard as it is, is pretty damn close to a perfect action movie, with Arnold it would have been perfect

Fun fact, the sequel to the novel that Commando is based on is what was eventually adapted as Die Hard. Matrix and McClane are in a way the same character.

Cary Fukunaga's IT

Amazing Spiderman 3. The shouldn't have just left a cliffhanger with the last one.

>>86088478
Del Toro's Haunted Mansion. I guess technically it isn't canceled, but it's been in development hell for like what, 8 years? I'd love to see how he would have interpreted the world.

>>86091531
No wonder JP3 is so forgettable and bland.

>>86096000
Dude, look into the leaked Sony emails of what the third one would have been like; Norman Osborn's preserved head would be enough to bring him back to life, Gwen Stacy would have been cloned.

It would be the biggest shit fest... I wish we had got it.

>Gwen Stacy would have been cloned.
God damn it. I hated that bitch enough to the point where I was glad that she died. I still would have wanted to see it though. I just wanted Dr. Octopus to show up.

>>86089808
People bitch about JL coming out without having introduced Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg, and you want a movie were none of the heroes has been introduced at all? It would have been shit, dude.

>>86096139

The funniest thing is that It's basically what spider-man would've been if Raimi Posting was true
>The story climaxes with a battle atop the World Trade Center

wasn't this a plotline in the Ultimate spiderman comics?
I rememeber something about gwen being carnage too.

The basic idea was that Peter would use the symbiote created by OsCorp to revive Gwen but it turns her into a monster and he has to stop her. Then Harry shows up and becomes Venom.

It was all very early stages, so it's kinda' unfair to judge. In the early stages of "Spider-Man 2" Doc Ock was gonna be a handsome young Chad scientist who fucks Mary-Jane.

Mad Max 4 with Mel Gibson

yeah that sounds like they were pulling from the ultimate continuity.

George Lucas' The Force Awakens.

>>86099493

Are there any leaks about his script or ideas?

I am more interested in his take than Disneys by this point.

>>86091389
Shout Factory put the director's cut on blu-ray last year. Although it's a bit rough, the never before seen footage they got their hands on is from old degraded VHS tapes.

No, but he is right about there being an original 400 page treatment, and the masketta man as Deadshot thing is partially true. Not sure about all the other "facts"

>>86099630
Unfortunately not, if I had to guess I'd say Disney shredded all of Lucas' plans and burned the shreds as soon as they had their trilogy outlined.

PTA's Pinocchio starring Robert Downey Jr

I didn't hate jp3 it wasn't good but it wasn't horrible. Now I'm kinda mad bc this would have been fantastic.

Probably Kubrick's Napoleon movie for me. Though he used a lot of the preliminary work he did for that on Barry Lyndon a few years later. Which I still haven't seen because I'm a pleb
