Greatest Sci-Fi Movies Never Made by David Hughes
Steven Spielberg's sci-fi horror movie "Night Skies"; David Lynch's "Ronnie Rocket", Terry Gilliam's "Watchmen"; and Ridley Scott's "I am Legend" - these are just some of the legendary sci-fi films covered in this book. Legendary because none of them ever actually made it to the screen. Drawing on many interviews with the film-makers involved, this volume tells the tortuous stories of the films that never were, and reveals the details of what we could have seen. The "Thunderbirds" movie; "Aliens versus Predator"; James Cameron's "Spider-Man" and "Avatar"; Stanley Kubrick's "Childhood's End"; Kevin Smith's "Superman Lives"; and Philip Kaufman's "Star Trek: Planet of the Titans" - all these projects and more are covered in this book.
