(...) To make the 17th reply, YOUR MOVIE IS AWESOME! I haven't had a chance to see the original yet (although I have read the book), but your expert use of a camera, and the plotline, made it beyond words. Of course, some people cannot appreciate (...)

I don't mean to assume, but I'm interested in how you did this.

  Re: "2001: A Lego Odyssey" - A New Lego Movie!
 
That was great! After watching it about 3 1/2 times it keeps getting better. By far the best part was when the guy in "LEGO Today" saw his brick and it was a burp and he frowned! That was great!
