God! I never get tried of these behind the scenes and deleted unused early concepts of the movie. Everytime I see them its makes me love this animated film even more then I already did, please never stop with showcasing all of the things you had to cut out from the final product because there so entertaining.
"Kill your darlings" is some of the best writing advice I ever heard. Sometimes, you fall deeply in love with an idea or scene, and it becomes hard to see that it doesn't fit or work with everything else. It's painful, but makes for a better product. I recently went through this myself, completely switching main characters for the book I'm writing, when for the past two years it's been some one else.
I waited so long to watch this because I dont like Christmas movies but the fact that this film was so dark was great Also I hear people complain by how Jesper doesnt shut up but.....I really like that. It separates him as a character.
Indeed. this version is mostly a showcase about how nuts this town is. But the way Jesper is treated by the villagers doesn't give the message the animators wanted to show. They wanted to show that the two families who lived in the town were in a conflict for generations, at a point that they are constantly making dirtydeeds and be violent to each other. In this version, Jesper is constantly beaten and throw away by the two families each time he begins to talk to them. It gives more of an idea that the townfolks doesn't like and respect strangers, moslty the postmans. The final one where he tries to have their attentions while they are doing stuff is more accurate of the original idea the animators wanted to give.
Mogens is the Gatekeeper. He's the link between Jesper and the outside world. I think reducing him to an occasional reminder of what Jesper is missing made him a stronger character. And he's a lot of fun to watch.
I prefer the final cut because it makes the boatman feel like less of a jerk, knowing that Jesper provoked him the first place.
I feel like with these scenes the movie would be darker in tone, more desperate. I love the final idea)
It’s amazing how much a film can change

This film was stupendous and amazing. A great Christmas film for future generations to enjoy
It's a shame these clever gags didn't make the final cut.
Seriously, that baby Elingboe throwing his rattle at the baby Krum was kind of demented.
The animation is literally a work of art thanks for the inspiration and ideas
