The Cutting Floor

Because of how much time animation takes, anything that is cut from my movies is so before animating. So packing boxes (I'm moving in April) I found some sketches under a pile of paper. They were from Miss Dynamite 22: Who's Your Baghdaddy? It made me laugh so I thought I'd share. This one is an alternate ending. It's pretty funny, but it was probably too much animation. The American guard at Gitmo is flushing down pages of a book in the toilet, taunting a prisoner who is Eva. "How you like me throwing your Coran in the toilet?" Eva: First of all, I'm no Muslim. Second, it's a Bible you're flushing down!" I just love the last panel with the guard, his arms elbow deep in the toilet, "Sorry Jesus!"
Edit: I just remembered this joke was changed to use the Bible in the intro gag, with the terrorist stomping it. That's why it was changed (which is better I think).

This other one I found, I understand why I didn't use it. In this early version, Eva was a "security contractor" (mercenary) working alongside the US Marines. A dying soldier wish, told to Eva, was to find little Jon Bonet's murderer. As the sketch suggests, the joke is a bit outdated. And who the hell remember who that is anyway?!
