The following video is not only worth seeing for fans of the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings films, but also for anyone interested in creating great Hollywood productions. A blogger has made it his business to compare the Blu-ray editions of the Hobbit trilogy with the respective trailers and comes to an astonishing result.
What the video mentioned shows is the enormous effort with which each scene and each character has been designed and edited. If every film production had been so meticulous and careful, we could have been spared one or the other disappointment. Even the trailer for «The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug» has every detail and only a few will have noticed the difference to the final film version. The author of the following YouTube video skilfully juxtaposes scenes from the trailer and the BluRay version. If you take a closer look, you can see that entire characters and backgrounds have been completely revised. The bear in the first juxtaposition, for example, was completely remodeled and entire textures, such as walls, were replaced with others. In another scene where Legolas aims his bow at an orc, the sky in the trailer has been completely replaced with trees, adding to the already impressive level of detail.
If the scene doesn't fit at all, you can also choose a different camera setting so that Galadriel turns to us directly, which she hadn't done before or shoots her arrow in a different direction than in the trailer. It is noticeable that the film has gone through a fundamental overhaul of the color: Excerpts that appeared blue in the trailer are now in a more greenish tone. In summary, it can be said that a lot has happened during the revision of the film. Figures were exchanged, landscapes replaced by others, and lighting and camera settings were played with. It's impressive how Peter Jackson's crew changed the film. You can clearly see the filmmaker's attention to detail and that commercial thoughts had to be neglected to create such a masterpiece. No wonder the Hobbit trilogy is the most expensive film project of all time. Regardless, the end product is just awesome, although you can't say the trailer looked bad.

"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.
My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever
