Films Almost Made
There had been several attempts to continue the story established in the original "Escape From" movies, and the details about these projects will make fans wonder what could have been.
After following up Escape from New York with Escape from L.A., Carpenter and Kurt Russell both were keen on bringing back Snake Plissken for a third movie. Determined to top the first two movies by going much bigger, the idea was to do a sequel called Escape from Earth. The plot would be set years after Snake had put an end to electricity in the second movie, essentially putting the entire planet into an apocalyptic wasteland. With no hope left of rescuing the planet, Snake looks to escape from Earth the same way he had New York and L.A. in sequels past. Despite Carpenter and Russell's best efforts, however, no studio wasn't willing to bite on funding the ambitious sequel, and Escape from Earth ultimately died in development hell.

What about Batman Triumphant, the planned follow-up to Batman and Robin? Not much was confirmed about it, other than that it would've had The Scarecrow as the main antagonist.

@Ben: I can't imagine it doing very well anyway. Not only did the Jetsons not enjoy the same success as the Flintstones, but at this point it appears as though the fascination with '60s cartoons to film has wained a bit.

i always wondered whatever happened to that live action jetsons movie that was going be a follow up of the flintstones movie, it was planned as a movie for the early 2000s, but instead we got flintstones: viva rock vegas. the last that was heard about the live action jetsons was it getting a 2012 release, but it was just rumor. i guess it's safe to say that it's never seeing the light of day at this point.
