Alternate Movie Endings That Nobody Has Seen

2004's "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story" featured stars Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn at the height of their comedic powers, hilariously trading barbs in the film's core rivalry. In the movie, Vaughn portrays the unassuming slacker Peter LaFleur, who owns Average Joe's Gym, while Stiller plays the testosterone-fueled egomaniac White Goodman, owner of the corporate Globo Gym. The ownership of Peter's gym ends being settled in a high-stakes dodgeball tournament, with Peter leading a motley crew of misfits while White heads his physically immaculate team.

The film's theatrical ending has Peter and White facing off in a sudden death duel to close out the tournament after White accidentally commits a penalty, resulting in Peter winning and publicly humiliating White. In an early cut of "Dodgeball," the penalty was never committed and Globo Gym won the tournament, with Steve the Pirate saving the day with a surprise cash supply in an unseen scene. Filmmaker Rawson Marshall Thurber elaborates on this in the commentary (per Film School Rejects), with Steve intended to save Peter's finances after recovering stolen loot instead, explaining why the prize money was delivered in a treasure chest in the film.
