Someone says in another thread: "Monte Hellman was penciled in to make so many films he didn't make, its a shame to think what could have happened."
I'd like to start a thread about the great lost books and unrealized projects.
I can think of the following:
The second volume of Gogol's Dead Souls (supposedly destroyed by him shortly before his death).
The Jodorowsky version of Dune (with Salvador Dali penciled in to play The Emperor of the Universe)
Benjamin's Arcades Project, allegedly lost somewhere on the road to Spain.
Aristotle's Second Book of Poetics (which burns down the library in the book by Umberto Eco which I can't remember the title of).
A proposed collaboration between Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis (broke down because Hendrix couldn't read the music Davis had written for him)
