Joe Carnahan has put up a complete early draft – what is essentially the version that was greenlit, according to him – of SMOKIN’ ACES available to download on his Smokin’ Joe Carnahan blog. Unsurprisingly, a lot of stuff was apparently changed as the film moved toward a final product, though Carnahan writes that the original scripted ending was filmed and will be a deleted scene on the DVD. Head HERE to check it out now and also, if you’re so inclined, to find a link to a page sample from the SMOKIN’ ACES prequel comic book. Below is the most recently posted rejected poster for the film. It’s a little busy but still in keeping with the choiceness and choiceosity of the previously seen awesome posters, which you can check out HERE and HERE. The movie opens January 26th
