Last month I shared with you some concept sketches of Disney characters. And today, I give you the early character sketches of famous movies, compiled by the good folks over at Screen Crush.

Take a look — Yoda could have looked like a garden gnome, and the original Jabba looks even more turd-y than the version we all love to hate. Bane seems to be an S&M dungeon master, while the two versions of Ralph (of “Wreck-It” fame) looks nothing like. I do, however, prefer the earlier designs of the Kraken and the Mad Hatter to their final forms. What do you think? (Warning: many images up ahead!)
