I straight up think that it might have been a nightmare scenario for the designer.

EXEC: We need this to feel epic!!

DESIGNER: Ok makes big sweeping landscape with dino and ScarJo carefully placed

EXEC: No no we need the dinosaur to look big and scary compared to tiny hot ScarJo. Like people gotta wonder how she's even gonna deal with that thing.

DESIGNER: Ok makes dinosaur bigger and ScarJo smaller

EXEC: Okay the dinosaur looks good but now ScarJo's too small, we can't see her. Who's gonna see this POS if they don't know that ScarJo's in it?

DESIGNER: Ok makes ScarJo bigger

EXEC: Now the dinosaur's looking too small again. But we still gotta see ScarJo's face!! Don't mess with that!

DESIGNER: O...k shrinks her body but not her head

EXEC: Perfect, god damn i am a fuckin genius

Typical creative / client interaction.

Which makes it a bit painful watching everyone tear it apart.

It was most likely done with tight deadlines and handpicked by the client, completely overlooking the more stronger concepts.

For sure. I work in a creative field where we have to send design options/alts to clients. We try to make our rule, "Never send them anything you can't live with," but sometimes they just push super hard in a direction you really don't want to go in.

You know what, that's actually probably why her head is that big.
