12 Shocking Batman Movie Plans That Almost Happened

10. Batman Vs Godzilla

While Batman's faced some pretty odd foes in his cinematic history, he's never faced anything as weird as he would have if Toho and Greenway Productions had got their way. Because back in the 1960s, the campy Batman TV show makers and Godzilla's film rights owners wanted the two to meet on screen.

They got as far as planning a collaboration which would have seen Batman and Godzilla fight in a 1966 release that would have also included Batgirl and Robin. Godzilla would have been under the control of Klaus Finster, an evil meteorologist intent on destroying Japan over a ransom of 20 million dollars.

The plan would have seen the heroes lure Godzilla out with a mating call and then shooting him into space in a rocket, because none of this would have been understated. Be thankful it never came off.
