I alwawys thought this would make an interesting topic for like a book or something.
All those movies that were not made, not finished , not released.
Like
Jodorowsky’s Dune
Hitchcock’s Kaleidoscope
Orson Welles Heart of Darkness Or Don Quixote
Jerry Lewis The Day the Clown Cried
Paul Verhoeven Crusades
For me I would have loved to see Kubrick’s Aryan Papers or Napoleon. I thnk Kubrick is the greatest director of all time. If I run into him in the afterlife I will probably gush for 20 minutes about how much I love his work and then I will scream at him for 30 minutes about why he didn’t do more movies. I think his Napoleon would have been great. I hated Barry Lyndon ( its his only film that I don’t think works) , I don’t his heart was in it, I think his heart and his passion would have fully been in Napoleon. And the Aryan papers, I would have killed to see that. Im sure it would have been depressing as hell but I bet it would have been great. Kubrick was cold and calculating not a sentimentalist like Spielberg ( u see a little of that in Schildner List) and I think he would have really captured the almost mechanical inhumanity of the Holocaust .

Like I said I would have loved to have seen it. Oh well.

What about u guys , what do u wish got made.

i told you not to stop the boat. Now lets go. Apocaylpse Now

Since you mention Innsmouth, I have to add Guillermo Del Toro's 'At the Mountains of Madness'

Stranger in a Strange Land

Morgan Freeman is actually producing Rendezvous and I believe he's shooting for 2017 as a release. If it happens, rejoice I will.

My votes go to Terry Gilliam's Don Quixote and Stanley Kubrick's Napoleon biopic.

The lord of the rings starring The Beatles. It may have been terrible but tell me you wouldn't want to see it?

Other than some mentioned here, I also would have liked to see "The Tony Clifton Story" by Andy Kaufman and Bob Zmuda.
