Well I was just cruising around the max payne site and I saw a section that read, "Concept Art" and I'm like," COOL! "
So I go and see a few of them, these three I think are my favorite of the bunch.
I'd give you a link to the site with the art but it's a flash site so you can't. but the site is: http://maxpaynethemovie.com

Here!
Which one do you like best?

I beg to differ! Super Mario Brothers was Oscar-worthy.

Is it me or the concepts and final-cuts have little in common?

I do hope the movie turns out at least decent. I'll really hate them if they screw this up!

Yeah you guys are right, the concept art quality isn't soo good. It's not just you guys, and the final cuts weren't that similar either..

i dont think the final cuts are totally representative of the movie, the last one just looks like the film crew or something.
i do like the concept art though, particularly the cityscape. cool

I heard this movie was so bad some local theaters had set up refund booths next to the rest rooms and concession stands.

and right they were.
This movie was crap.
The casting is horrible.
There is no max payne feeling Anywhere.
It doesn't even feel like a detective story, its all about special effects.
Even the action scenes were lame. Ugh.
:(

It was probably done in a hurry.
i've worked internships before where the boss will come by my desk and scoop up everything from my drawing table (finished or not.. napkin sketches and all) sometimes the worst of it just winds up published somewhere. I can think of one instance where they didn't even use my final... they blew up this rough chicken scratch pencil drawing for their poster.

The one of the building is good (I think anyways)... but the one of the girl yelling is probably just a quickly-painted storyboard frame. I've done stuff like that to get approval to move on to a more accurate-polished drawing.
