Things you spot as a writer:
Sandra Bullock's character in Demolition Man was clearly written to be Stallone's daughter, not love interest.
And they didn't remove all the plot/dialogue hooks in the rewrite.
Which is why that sub plot feels creepy af.

Demolition Man is basically a film about future Sly Stallone never trying to find his estranged daughter, as he suspects it's the person he's boning.
The early post-unfreezing convo about Stallone leaving a wife and daughter behind is a HUGE sub-plot setup they then have to handwave away later.
I'm assuming the plot change came during filming.

This shows why you have to think about how something is written when you edit.
Books and scripts are like rivers. They flow. If you dam that river with an edit, the audience are coded to complete the plot. You just don't control how anymore.
