Sometime you hear about a direction movies where originally supposed to go but they changed their mind.
I read the producer of Conan the Barbarian originally wanted a pop movie soundtrack for the film.
Thank heavens they didn't do that.
Any stupid original decisions you've heard of?

In the original lineup Bill Murray was one of the choices to be cast as Batman prior to Michael Keaton.

Jack Black as Green Lantern. I dunno if that was ever an actually legit thought or just a rumour...but thank the gods it didn't happen.

Aragorn was going to have a sword fight with Sauron in Peter Jackson's Return of the King film, presumably near the end, a scene that most definitely wasn't in the book and looked completely ridiculous. There was footage of that in one of the "making of" documents on the extended DVD edition.
I don't remember exactly why they scrapped that, but I think it was because even they realized how dumb the idea was.

I remember that rumour but I also remember about 11 years ago John Byrne did an interview in Wizard talking about how Warner Brothers came to him and some other Comic Writers and asked them if they were interested in writing a Green Lantern script. When they found out it was possibly going to be a comedic vehicle for Eddie Murphy he "politely" declined.
