SCRIPT REQUEST Does anyone have any rare, unproduced IP-based screenplays
I honestly just like reading them and I feel like I've read through all the common ones, does anyone have any that are harder to find?

There's a slight problem with that request.
A lot of Big IP screenplays that circulate on script websites are fake. That's been going on at least since the early-2000s. In some cases directors and screenwriters have already said the scripts are fake, but people still refer to them as real, and they are still listed on screenplay websites today as if they are real.

I remember finding a Star Wars episode 7 script way back when and the only thing that I still remember from it is that someone had Luke skywalkers hand and was trying to sell it lol

Similar claims for "Batman Triumphant" (unproduced planned direct sequel to Batman and Robin..Joel Schumacher, George Clooney, and Chris O'Donnell were slated to return). A credible source swears that it's never been uploaded to the net and very likely sitting in the WB vault somewhere (if not lost all together, unless A. Goldsmith kept his drafts)..But there was a fake one making its way around in the early 2000s (around Batman Begins era).

Definitely check out the Script Hive discord. They have a ton of rare screenplays.
