pe668: YouTube Twitter Wow! This is the first animation I have seen featuring the larger scale Avengers figurines and it blew me away! The concept of this film is really neat and it’s always nice to see people trying new techniques, characters, sets, etc. in brickfilms, and if you know anything about David Boddy (pe669) you [...]

  ZachFBStudios Facebook Twitter Above you can check out ZachFB’s entry for the Halo Mega Bloks (don’t hate you MB haters) toymation fest. It’s a very impressive entry indeed, those MB figures are extremely difficult to animate! I entered last year’s contest and got pretty frustrated trying to animate them. The animation overall is pretty good in this [...]

Suburb Animation Studios is a fairly new name to me, other than his THAC9 entry on bricksinmotion.com that placed 2nd, I haven’t really seen much from him. And then he [...]

ForlornCreature: Youtube Twitter Minecraft lovers, come get your satisfaction! Even non-minecraft players (like myself…. *embarrassed*) will enjoy it. At first I was skeptical, because i’m usually not a huge fan of “themed” films (Batman, Star Wars, whatever), but this one stands on it’s own and it’s really good. I personally love the overall mood and style of [...]

TwickaBrick   This blew my mind. I haven’t seen such unique and impressive animation in a LONG time. I’ve always kept my eye out on TwickaBrick animations and I’ve always been impressed by the animation techniques, but holy lego bricks batman, the in-shot visual effects of this film are amazing. Everything from the fire, the [...]

That1LegoKid: Youtube This is the first work I’ve ever seen by That1LegoKid, and needless to say, I was extremely impressed. Finally a Batman LEGO film that isn’t a complete slam comedy, but doesn’t take itself too seriously. I haven’t seen a Batman flick pulled off this well in a LONG time. One of the first [...]
