Batman Forever: The Schumacher Cut

Hey guys! Last year, Kevin Smith had a copy of the November 1994 workprint of Batman Forever in a thumb drive, given by Joe Black. And he showed it at his theater SmodCastle Cinemas in New Jersey. It had a temp score consisted of scores for Alien 3, Demoltion Man, and Interview With The Vampire by Elliot Goldenthal, along with scores for Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Batman 89, Edward Scissorhands, and Batman Returns by Danny Elfman, while it had Elliot's Batman Forever main title march before Elliot completed his full score for the movie. It doesn't have the Bank Guard in the vault saying, "Oh my God! It's boiling acid!" It had a character arc for Val Kilmer's Batman/Bruce Wayne, Jon Faveau having lines as Bruce's stock broker, the giant bat, and also had alternate line deliveries. Tommy Lee Jones' Two-Face is still cackling, hooting, and generally being over the top in this cut.
Warner Bros., if you see this demand, do it, or have you seen it before. You guys are almost there to release the Schumacher Cut of Batman Forever, because there's still plenty of work to be done, to add new music and new visual effects to it. And you'll give Akiva Goldsman $1 million to complete it and to release it. For Joel.
