What do you think is the holy grail of unreleased movies or tv series or something thats still "in the vault"?
Unreleased episodes of Heil Honey, I'm Home (Season 1)
StarCraft: Ghost. Great concept, from back when Blizzard made passion projects / before Activision killed them. I have no doubt this game would have been a fucking blast.
Also the recently abandoned KOTOR remake. Fucking amazing game, but one that didn't age well at all. A modernized version would have been fantastic. That 2 second clip of Revan in the trailer generated an insane amount of hype - people definitely want this one.
Adding to that: Star Wars 1313
Would have been amazing to get a gritty Star Wars game with a good storyline. Star Wars Jedi:fallen order leaned a bit towards it but is not so gritty/dark.
Back then Blizzard still had artistic integrity and wouldn't accept a game of the highest quality.
Their also cancelled Warcraft point and click adventure was leaked a few years ago. It was almost finished. Just lacked some music and voicelines I think. Fans have restored what they could. It's not bad. But not great either.
I suspect that Ghost was similar. Just not good enough. Activision/Blizzard would probably have released it to salvage what they could.
The KOTOR remake is supposedly still in production. But I think KOTOR 2 could also qualify as lost media. So much left to finish before the release. A real shame. I think it had the potential to be better than the first one. The party interactions were so much more interesting. I bet that premature release killed KOTOR 3.
Coyote vs. Acme. Hopefully next year.

Jerry Lewis - The Day the Clown Cried
excited about the looney tunes
That batwoman movie wb threw out for a tax write off
The missing episodes of doctor who
do the Epstein docs count 😆
I'll give an actual answer though, TF2 Source 2 fan project that got DMCAd by Valve. It looked SOOO good.

The full 'hell" scene in Event Horizon.
Solid okay horror film
My favorite movie, but not my favorite horror movie.
Recently heard that they filmed all the scenes for Groundhog Day in several weather conditions each. Maybe not a holy grail but really funny to think about all the stuff they didn’t use.
Or the dozens (hundreds?) of hours that Robin Williams spent as libbing as the genie in Aladdin. I think it was in his contract that they couldn't even use it anywhere else
Y'all might like the podcast Dead Pilots Society.
They do table reads for TV pilot episodes that comedy writers sold to a network but which were never actually filmed. There are some real gems in there.
Never actually made, as far as I know, but mine would be whatever it was David Lynch was doing for Netflix, under the name Wisteria (or possibly Unrecorded Night, it seems to have gone by both names at various points). Cancelled due to the pandemic and never really explained as far as I know.
Hell, I'd just like to know what it was going to be - something Twin Peaks related? Something completely new? The further adventures of Jack the killer monkey?
EDIT - apparently his daughter Jennifer has said they're considering releasing the script. That was June 2025, so hope springs!
Firefly seasons two through eight.
I'll be in my bunk.
Eight??? Even breaking bad knew to quit before jumping the shark.
I'd love to read George Lucas' treatments for the sequel trilogy. We know that they were supposed to focus on the microscopic world with the midi chlorians more and actually introduce the Whills. Sounds ghastly, but I'd really like to know what he had intended for the makro world. And I wanted to know what the Whills are since reading that word in the novelisation of A New Hope.
Never made, but Jodorowski's adaptation of Dune. There's a great documentary about it.
Being a Disney nerd, an unreleased thing I would like to see is The Enchanted Tales. It was meant to be a series of DVDs, each containing two episodes, featuring the Disney Princesses. One volume was released, featuring Jasmine and Aurora. Trailers for two other volumes were released but the actual episodes were never released. The four unreleased episodes feature Aurora, Belle, Cinderella, and Mulan
The full audiobook of Gilbert Gottfried reading 50 Shades of Grey.
An unreleased movie I personally want to see is Batgirl
Director's cut of Goncharov
Release the butthole cut!
(Someone kinda did though)
You have a.very low reputation on piefed 😃
The Firefly episodes that were never aired.
They actually released them on video and streaming. The lost episodes never made it past script stage, but I think they were done as comic books?
