Why It's Doomed: The feature directorial debut of Independence Day writer-producer Dean Devlin has a suitably nutty premise: Gerard Butler heads into space to stop climate-controlling satellites from wreaking havoc on Earth.

While this could certainly be just cheesy enough to work, the fact that the movie began shooting well over two year ago, has had its release delayed numerous times and went back in for re-shoots with a different director and several actors recast last month, suggests the production is an absolute flaming dumpster fire.

There's virtually no chance of this one crawling out of the embers, and it'd surprise nobody if it got delayed yet again or eventually sent to die on VOD or Blu-ray.
