    I swear test audiences are the bane of Hollywood's creativity. They hate everything that goes out of the norm. They like safe, bland, repetitive stories. If you even hint at something original they'll cry like babies.
    Since we're talking about Schwarzenegger's unmade movies, a suggestion for a next video is the canceled sequel to Total Recall. That movie would have answered the question of the first film (was it real or all part of Quaid's manufactured dream?) and replaced it with a new twist. It sounded like a good movie, but it kept getting rejected.

    Here's a good idea for a future
    "Bullets & Blockbusters" video:
    *"GODZILLA Reborn", Joe Dante's Sequel to "GODZILLA 2000"*
    Written by Michael Schlesinger (who
    also wrote the script for the U.S. Cut
    of *"GODZILLA 2000"),* the "campy
    -in-tone" sequel was to have Godzilla
    arriving in Hawaii where he is
    then defeated by the U.S. military, but
    when a lava-bat monster called "Miba"
    emerged from the active Mauna Loa,
    Godzilla is revived and the two kaijus
    would fought in a epic & serious battle.
    The movie was to have an all-star
    cast with Bruce Campbell,
    Jamie Lee Curtis, Christopher Lee,
    Leonard Nimoy, Scott Bakula,
    Robert Picardo, Belinda Balaski,
    Dick Miller, Ken Takakuda, &
    Shirō Sano (who was to reprise his
    role as Shiro Miyasaka from
    *"GODZILLA 2000")* and the FXs
    were to be done by Toho's very own special effects team.
    Toho approved the script, with one
    notable exception: Originally, Godzilla
    was to be killed by the U.S. military
    and is then cloned back to life to fight
    Miba. Another draft was written with
    Godzilla simply going into a coma after his defeat from the military.
    The film was to have a mere $20 million
    budget, but when producer Sid Ganis
    tried to get to the new Columbia head
    of production to read the script, he
    said "I'm not interested in $20 million
    movies!", and the project was canned as a result.

    In the early 2000s, screenwriters Andrew Kevin Walker and Akiva Goldsman wrote a screenplay for a Batman Vs Superman flick that would’ve relaunched both the Batman and Superman franchises. Wolfgang Peterson was set to direct, and Johnny Depp and Josh Harnett were reportedly set to play Batman and Superman, but other rumored castings were Colin Farrell and Jude Law, James Franco and Paul Walker, etc. It would’ve been similar to the Batman V. Superman we got, but would’ve been much more derivative of The Dark Knight Returns, featuring a Bruce Wayne who has to come out of retirement after his fiancée is murdered, not exactly like the famous comic, but similar. Lex Luthor would’ve still been the main villain, but would’ve worked with The Joker to manipulate Batman and Superman into fighting. The film leads up to Batman going to kill The Joker as revenge for his fiancée, but Superman stops him as he doesn’t want Batman to go down the path of killing. The two clash it out over their morals before they realize that they’ve been manipulated by The Joker and Lex Luthor. Overall, the film would’ve explored the morals of the two heroes and questioned whether a hero needs to kill. However, it ultimately fell about when J.J. Abrams pitched his Superman script, Superman: Flyby, and WB liked it.

    Schwarzenegger revealed in his autobiography that one of the reasons he become governor was because suddenly he had more time, offers weren't coming in and his phone stopped ringing. Because of his heart surgeries, which got very serious, he believes this caused the audiences and Hollywood to see him in a different light. He was no longer the invincible macho man who could never get hurt.

    From Ridley's approach, there could have been interesting similarities to Blade Runner. Sullen hero, going into the city and facing off against humanoid creatures, that ultimately we see have feelings and a sense of family. The tone also seems similar to Blade Runner, slow and moody. Sparse dialog. The woman he rescues also seems akin to Rachel, in that how he sees her as more than one of the horde, and she humanizes him. Living in the countryside, having escaped the hell of the city, also seems to be what would have happened after Blade Runner's Theatrical Cut ending. This could have made up for Blade Runner's lack of box office success.

    This really sounds like it would've been truly unique. While I did enjoy the Will Smith version (CGI or not), Scott's version sounds like he wanted to do something truly psychological and disturbing. Plus, I like the idea of not having any dialogue for the first hour, as it would've made the audience feel isolated along with Robert. I also would've had it that there would be little to no music in the film, which could further drive in the point that Robert is all alone and would've added more to the atmosphere. Plus, the design of the vampires would've been fantastic, and based on the test photographs and concept art, it was. It's a shame that the fx crew went through all of those tests and concepts, only for the studio to kick the bucket on the project.

And I didn't know that the original ending from the 2007 adaptation wasn't liked by test audiences, that ending is so much better and interesting than the final cut. The one thing I like about the Darkseekers from the 2007 adaptation was the hyperventilating breathing, like they have a lot of energy and adreanline flowing in their organism.

    I think I Am Legend is an interesting take on a "zombie" apocalypse. While it still fails to provide a compelling story and world building, I think it stands out as one of the more decent Zombie media.
    Also Im pretty sure Ive already pitched this to you on the original Avengers video. But it would be extremely cool if you could go in depth on the original ideas of Godzilla vs. Kong (2021). Since there are more things Ive uncovered from different books and posts on online that paint a pretty sound structure of what the film could've been before, the plethrra of script changes and editing cuts.
    Great video, btw Love the channel and keep it up, man!

      I Am Legend is itself set in an alternate dimension, where Batman V Superman was made. There's a billboard for it visible. At least the planned early 00's one, directed by Wolfgang Petersen. As this film was shot in 2006, it's fair to assume they weren't aware Zack Snyder's 2016 film would be made.

    On the topic of Ridley Scott, I heard that the original script for his version of Robin Hood was a reimagining of the character as the bad guy and the Sheriff of Nottingham was the good guy but somebody chickened out and we got a forgettable , unsatisfying film instead.
    Is there a full Bullets and Blockbusters video to be made out of it?
    I don't know.

    I never got the hate for the theateral ending. I like the message of more with someone becoming a legend by sacrificing themselves to save humanity than the other version where he drives away, giving the impression that people should not strive for anything good and just give up. Plus, the ending in the theatrical cut is closer to the book where both characters off themselves.

    Also Arnold Schwarzenegger was going to be in an Alien film with Sigourney Weaver, Ridley directing and James Cameron producing/writing. 😮😮😮. But the studio wanted an Alien/Predator movie instead so all the above mentioned names dropped out because they thought that was a stupid idea. Which it turned out to be. Fox deserves its terrible reputation for killing franchises.

    The alternative ending was better in the will smith version. It stayed more loyal to the book where he learns he’s now the threat / monster that’s hunting the cgi vampires and humanity is burned toast.
    The original Arnold movie could still be remade today and would be awesome. Maybe without the third act western shooter / action that the studio wanted though.
