Okay, here's one:

A sequel to the Schwarzenegger film Commando was written but never made because Schwarzenegger didn't want to reprise the role. The script was then rewritten to incorporate a new main character and the subsequent film became a blockbuster and spawned four sequels. What was that movie?

Based on films in it's series, I'm gonna guess The Bourne Identity

And you'd be wrong.

The original Bourne Identity novel was first published in 1980, five years before Commando hit the big screens.

Good guess, though.

So many seem to be unaware the Bourne series was based of books...which imo are much better than the films.  The answer to your question is Die Hard.

So.... My Turn?

Ok.   RoboCop is great for many reasons, least of all is that it is a satire of Action films while arguably being one of the greatest action films of all time.  BUT, it was not wholly unique.  The Script for RoboCop had been floating around Hollywood from studio to studio for Years, being tweaked and rewritten.  So, what character was the first script about?

Sorry to Frankenstein this thread, but my brother and I were discussing this very topic the other day and he told me that RoboCop was originally a knockoff of......JUDGE DREDD. Which, years later, Stallone, Rob sneider, ehhhhh... I think RoboCop won this cult classic battle even though Judge DREDD started it all.

So my answer, JUDGE DREDD

Correct.  Dredd of course appears in the 2000 A.D. Comics and first premiered in 1977.  It didn't take long for a movie to be in the works but it never mad it out of the scripting phase.  For years it was passed around, tweeked, altered until it barely resembled the original.  Thus Robocop was born.

In Terminator 2 there were scenes which needed 2 Sarah Conners on set.  One was the scene where they were patching up the T-800 and the other was when the T-1000 was disguised as Sarah.  Now of course they used a stand in, but there is usually is a tell that its a stand in...in this instance it was flawless.  How was this accomplished?

It was done by her....."Sister! She has a twin sister. Your questions have now betrayed her, too."

Her sister's name is Leslie Hamilton (Gearren) and when people talk about identical twins in this case they were TOTALLY indistinguishable from each other.
And sorry for the poor Darth Vader impression.
