ACTUALLY, THERE ARE SCENES ON THE CUTTING ROOM FLOOR THAT WILL NEVER BE SEEN. ROBIN WAS INTENDED TO BE IN THE MOVIE. MARLON WAYANS WAS CAST AS ROBIN. HE'S A KID/TEENAGER THAT'S LIVING ON THE STREETS OF GOTHAM. HE SEES BATMAN CRASS THE BATBULLIT. IT CATCHES FIRE TRAPPING BATMAN INSIDE. "ROBIN" RESCUES BATMAN. ALFRED PICKS THEM UP, AND "ROBIN" TELLS BATMAN ABOUT HOW HIS DAD WAS INTO DRUGS AND WOULD BEAT HIM. BRUCE DECIDES TO TAKE HIM IN. AT ONE POINT BRUCE GOES DOWN INTO THE BATCAVE AND HE SEES "ROBIN" REBUILDING THE BATMOBILE.
RUMORS LEAKED ABOUT THIS SUBPLOT. THERE WAS SOME MAJOR BACKLASH FROM THE FANS. THEY WERE UPSET THAT THERE WAS A BLACK ROBIN. SO, THE STUDIO MADE BURTON CUT OUT ALL OF THE ROBIN FOOTAGE FROM THE FILM. BURTON HAD TO DO A PICK UP SHOOT. THAT SHOT WAS THE "HOW DO WE FIX THE BATMOBILE" SCENE.

That stuff was actually shot? I thought that was from the original aborted Sam Hamm script that was soon replaced by the final one. I knew that Marlon Wayans had been cast, but I'd always heard there was never anything from that script actually shot.
