A few entries to start things off, including the ones already mentioned in the FenWiki article:
- Two different versions of baseball player Fidel Castro's autobiography
- Francis Ford Coppola's The Empire Strikes Back
- Blazing Saddles, starring Richard Pryor and John Wayne
- His Girl Friday, starring Cary Grant and Ginger Rogers
- A version of Casablanca where it's Laszlo and Renault who walk off into the desert
- DC's final "crossover" title, Crisis on Infinite Earths - the title that killed the entire concept of the "crossover series" in its universe because it was so heavy-handed in its reorganization of the company's default story setting. (Hey, they aren't all winners...)
Any more?
