Hahaha, not only was that a brilliantly scripted shootout, but the brief, awkward pauses before he caps a dude and the anticlimactic jetpack scene put it pretty squarely in Lego humor as far as I know.

If Lego ever decided to go mature with their parody games, I'd be right on board.

Hell yeah man. Me too. I gotta agree, the pauses and the ending did match well with the humor you mostly find in the Lego videogames.

Now that was 7 shades of brilliance, I often envy these people who have creativity, talent and time.

Hey, look, an action hero who reloads instead of carrying twenty-eight guns with one magazine each. I remember those!

The clip is pretty spiffy; the only bad part is when Hero Guy runs from cover to cover, because it's really hard to get dynamic running motions from a Lego figure. Still: Definitely spiffy.

That was awesomely awesome. The single shot is definitely much more effective for scenes like this than having it broken up by lots of cuts.

Legos may be small, but they can pack a hell of a punch.
I'm sorry this is going to make me sound REALLY anal but I'm afraid I have to point this out because it REALLY bugs me!

When referring to Lego, the plural of Lego is LEGO, not LEGOS. There is no s on the end. It is like the word sheep. You have one sheep or many sheep. You do not have many sheeps.

For example:

I love to play with Lego
I built this model using 200 Lego bricks
I have a lot of Lego

It is something that Lego themselves got a bit touchy about a few years back and people navigating to Legos.com would recieve a message politely telling them to refer to it simply as Lego. Lego is a brand name and the individual pieces are Lego bricks or Lego toys, it is a brand name and not a description of the actual product.

/rant

Sorry about that, it really annoys me, is all!

OT: The video was really cool! I love to see traditional animation still being made and with a medium which seems to suit it perfectly, Lego!
On a side note i thought you would find this... well, i dunno.. cool?

LEGO is made from the two dainish words "LEg GOdt" which basicly means play well ^^

LEGO is the pride of Denmark! =)

Yeah I had read that on Wikipedia of all places! :) It's a pretty cool way of coming about a brand name. I thank Denmark for the wonderful invention of Lego!

God, I gotta get out my old LEGO Studio set. I used to make Indiana Jones videos (in particular a truck chase that I believed to be quite badass) with it, but nothing this good. Thanks for the nostalgia, and an introduction to what looks like a pretty awesome series of videos.

Keshen is pretty amazing. I guess I'm a fan of his seeing as I saw this video on Youtube before I saw it here as an article.

That was awesome, I love what people have been able to do with Lego's if given enough time with them. :D
