My nomination would be _Battlefield Earth_. What about you?

_Star Trek V: The Final Frontier_. There’s a fan-made version which is not too bad, but I’d like to see either Joel or Mike & the Bots handle this one.

I would say that the movie I would like to see them take on would be **The movie that will not be named and was never made** \*

\*Highlander 2 for those that must know. Now excuse me whilst I purge the memory of it again from my mind \<Goes for the heavy drink\>.

I bet nobody on SDMB has seen this one, **The Neptune Factor** aka **The Neptune Disaster** with Ben Gazzara, Walter Pidgeon, Yvette Mimieux and Ernest Borgnine as **Mack**. A research sealab falls into an abyss during an earthquake and a Canadian minisub must rescue them. The monsters from the deep that harass our heroes are nothing more than goldfish and lobsters shot at extreme close-up. The only redeeming feature of the film is seeing the Canadian Navy scramble HMCS submarine Onodaga to search for survivors.

Icerigger, I have seen the _Neptune Disaster._ I think you are wrong: Yvette is a redeeming factor in any movie. In her prime, a serious babe.

My candidates for MSTK treatment:  
_Planet of the Apes  
Independence Day  
Twister  
Enemy of the State  
A Simple Plan_
