James Cameron's Spider-Man
James Cameron’s planned 90’s Spider-Man adaptation would have been an experience if the film ever saw the light of day. The plan, you see, was to make our hero an awkward pervert amid his peak puberty years. Spidey would have spied on Mary Jane getting changed and also get jiggy with her on the Brooklyn Bridge some time later. Unfortunately, a legal battle between studios over the rights to the film prevented it from being made and this probably saved Cameron’s career in the long run.
Cameron is a great filmmaker, so to assume that this would have been a disaster is a little far-fetched. Still, a Spider-Manmovie where the hero is a peeping Tom sounds like a glorious train wreck on paper.
