Having a read through some of the Future Films thread and seeing a lot of postings on concept art for upcoming films, there seems to be a trend of it either looking a lot better than the finished product or looking like a completely different (and in a lot of cases better) film.

So my question is, have you seen any concept art or designs from movies past release that got your hopes up so much only to be quite disappointed at what you actually saw onscreen?

I think Zack Snyder films suffer from this. Not that his films are bad, far from it. I really enjoyed Watchmen and thought Sucker Punch was pretty good (if not as good as the trailers and concept art had me believe it would be!). However his concept art really is awesome. He is a fantastic visual director.

He's a stunning visual director, he just shouldn't write.

Zack Snyder is definetly a good shout. Always thought the Jodorowsky concept are for Dune looked stunning and showed promise of a movie that could have been if we didnt get the problem plauged Lynch film.

Why couldn't they have built actual sets?!
