Abandoned Bond film plots you liked?

There are several plots for the Bond films that were abandoned, some plots actually being pretty good. What ones do you like?

I liked the original idea for YOLT, with a Japanese mob releasing a deadly gas in the streets of Tokyo.

    Personally I'm not aware of the abandoned plots. Are there any threads which go into detail?

    I quite liked Richard Maibaum's original treatment for TSWLM. I talk about it a little bit here:

    I was down for the 3rd Dalton Bond set in Hong Kong and Scotland- though some fans thought the robots were silly.

    Not actually an abandoned plotline, and not because I didn't like Spectre, but sometimes I wish EON never got the rights to Spectre back so that we could continue with the Quantum organization and the new post-modern-action style Bond from CR and QoS.
    Yes. Consssssiderably.
