20,000 Leagues Under The Sea: Concept Art McG SHOULD use for CAPTAIN NEMO

Here’s some amazingly badass art from an artist named Robert Simons. These are concepts for 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, that he did a couple years back, and thanks to i09, we get to see this interestingly darker(Guillermo Del Toro-esque even) take on the world of Captain Nemo.
These pics are completely unrelated to Disney’s new 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea: Captain Nemo film being directed by McG. We reported a couple of weeks ago that Braveheart scribe Randall Wallace was brought in rewrite the screenplay, which is being adapted from the classic Jules Verne novel.
There has yet to be anything released from Disney’s production. But these concepts WOULD be a great place for them to take it. We can only hope McG’s version will look half as cool. With Terminator: Salvation now a certified dud, this is extremely important for McG to pull off.
Check out the concepts, click photos to enlarge, and share your thoughts!

this stuff is fraking AWESOME!!!!
Wow this is starting to look friggin awesome! Can't wait! I remember watching the old one on the Disney channel. lol
Please no on the Kraken, it was a squid!
cool – visually i see halo, bioshock, abe sapien, the tumbler under water, the monster from cloverfield/mist……but all that matters not, i am sure to the future bastardization of this movie. i like mcg's work, although terminator was missing many elements that we were all waiting for. so having low expectations going in, i am sure we will be amazed.
The concept art looks great! You see this kind of stuff all the time but nobody ever uses it. Saw some fantastic work for John Carter a few years ago but I'm sure that's in the trash by now since it's changed hands so many times.
Not sure why everyone is picking on Terminator: Salvation. This was supposed to be part one of a trilogy and was laying groundwork for the bigger story to come. I'm not saying it was a great movie by any stretch, just not as bad as everyone indicates. As far as it being a dud, the box office on it would indicate otherwise. It has made over 350mil worldwide. Any movie that makes more than a quarter of a billion dollars doesn't really qualify as a dud in the studios eyes. It's made more money than The Hangover
