oh right...Captain Sam made it into the video game
Or at least the GBA version. You actually go to his place to do a sidequest and he gets a banging theme tune. Also the GBA game was weird as hell, had Cloudy Cliffs as a location and "Lachrymose Lane." Virginian Wolfsnake gets a sidequest where you give it ink to write a book or something

Here is a collection of every single video promo made for the movie that I could find. Most of these feature some interesting behind the scenes footage and snippets of moments that ended up being cut out of the final film.

I heard that MTV once aired the train scene, but it was the version with the released Thomas Newman track "An Unpleasant Incident Involving a Train" instead of the film version (which is probably titled "An Unpleasant Incident Involving a Train (Film Version)" but is really just a remix of "Hurricane Herman" and "Attack of the Hook-Handed Man")
Did this end up anywhere?

Possibly, although it's unclear if it ever existed in the first place. As far as I have ever been able to make out, any and all tv airings of the movie either don't change anything or merely cut some stuff out. Still, it's not impossible of course. So much of the score kept having to be rewritten because of the movie's ever changing script and later editing, that at a certain point they likely gave up on recording new music and just resorted to cannibalising the old tracks in order to fit the new cuts. Most movie scores are written in a couple of months and then recorded in one or two days, maximum. This movie's score was rewritten and recorded/recorded over the course of 11 months with over 30 different recording days. This should give you some idea of just how drastically the movie kept changing in editing.

That video about the sweepstakes competition just screams ‘it’s a trap!’ for me. I don’t know why, but it does.

And with the OST version of the track. I don't know if this was ever recorded or found, I got the information from a YouTube comment from someone who was there allegedly. I've watched the scene while playing the OST version over it, it still actually fits so there were probably no changes done to the scene itself except for the score (the original train theme made it into the film during the leech scene, "The Regrettable Episode of the Leeches" is based on that while the unreleased "Aunt Jo's Demise" track is a variation on the ending of "An Unpleasant Incident Involving a Train") though sometimes I have a pipe dream where the train scene uses the Hurricane Herman/Attack of the Hook-Handed Man variation but then the ending is the OST version
