Line 279:
* The idea for a [[The Muppets|Muppet]] movie known as ''[http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/The_Cheapest_Muppet_Movie_Ever_Made! The Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made]'' was originally floated in 1985. It's presumably about Gonzo directing a Muppet movie and he blows half the budget on the opening titles, resulting in the movie progressively getting shittier and shittier to the point where a shot of the same street corner is used for every city in the world. The title card was revealed in September 2009, but it was subsequently set aside in favor of ''[[The Muppets (film)|The Muppets]]''.
== Food ==
* MRE pizza is considered the holy grail of food preservation and the single most requested dish. It's also pretty much every food preservation ''problem'' (Bread, acidity, combining very distinct items into a single package) combined into one so development has lasted over a decade. In 2015 it was projected to be finished by 2017, and it was with lab made examples being successful. Unfortunately additional issues with mass production introduced a serious issue: While edible its entire shelf life, toward the end of its life it turns a hideous brown color no one will eat even though it is still edible.

* ''The Repossession Mambo'' (which was adapted as the film ''[[Repo Men]]'') was written in 1996 but did not find a publisher until 2008. However, the manuscript had been circulating in Hollywood for some time and the film was greenlighted a few years before the book was published. The film also suffered through post-production hell as Universal shelved it for two years.
* The third book in the [[Gentleman Bastard Sequence]] series, ''The Republic of Thieves,'' has been repeatedly announced as forthcoming...and as repeatedly postponed.
