So this isn't officially "lost" media, but it's about to be, so give me a chance to explain...
Recently, like within the last week, CW filmed a pilot for a live action reboot of Powerpuff Girls. And test audiences were blown away, as in they ran screaming from the room. The "Hello, fellow kids" meme was created for this. The script has already leaked and is now readily available online, which I suggest reading to get some insight into what is happening and if you want your eyes to burn...
But as I said, there was a fully scripted and filmed pilot shown to test audiences. As in, the actors, the scenes, the whole thing was filmed and ready to roll. The only reason they stopped was because of the aforementioned backlash/roasting online. So that means a physical, actually real, fully filmed pilot (let's call it the CW Cut) now exists but is allegedly being "reworked" by the network. So since, God willing, the original never sees the light day officially this means very soon it will be either lost completely or partially. Even at this moment it genuinely counts as lost because the CW Cut has only ever been shown to test audiences, and it's not clear on how much, if any, will ever be available to the public despite the fact that the network has OPENLY STATED that they had a fully filled, fully produced, ready to go Episode One cut and printed prior to the script leaking. So, question: should people try to find some part of the pilot, or list it as lost, since the network says it's being "retooled" already? Or at least preserve what exists somewhat? Or should we wait until the inevitable when the hammer comes down and the pilot is lost for good. Since someone leaked the CW Cut script, maybe someone has either the actual pilot or parts of it, so should we treat it as "lost" or wait for it? Because it's a fully produced episode, and if's remotely like the script we're talking Sonic the Hedgehog OG trailer "Gangsta's Paradise" bad...
