  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) Up yours! Tu tambien capullo Now this gay idea of making LEGO minifigs that are gay, transexual, lesbians... is stupid. I understand and agree with my cousin, when I was 7 she changed all my minifig's legs to bricks 1x2, those bricks where (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
I am shocked and disgusted at anyone who would be immoral and low enough to display these films on the Internet. Even though I have not watched them, I have learned enough reading this thread. It is not right for anyone to display this trash (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Lego on Third Watch
 
Hi all, I thought someone would have posted this by now. Last week (or maybe two weeks ago) on Third Watch (NBC show about NYC PD & FD), one of the police officers (Yokus) tells her partner at length about wanting to buy Harry Potter Legos for her (...)

(...) The film being referenced (at least from the pic that shows up on the site that Jacob cited, I don't speak Danish so I can't attest to the text of the article) is from a film called "Rick & Steve: the Happiest Gay Couple in All the World." It (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)

  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
I've never even heard of these animations. Are they something new, or just some obscure little files that no one ever paid attention to until now? If kids are watching them, then yes, that's bad. I imagine, however, that those of us in LUGNET are (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) In the "good old days" minifigs were essentially sexless. They all pretty much looked the same with the same smily face. Before that, minifigs didn't have movable arms or legs, so they looked like little people in body casts. Today's minifigs (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)

  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) That sounded just as bad as the animations, if you ask me. Please, if you cannot withstand from using such language, at least semi-censor it by using asterisks. Remember: there are, I am sure, younger people then me here. -- Mark Nelson Age 14 (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)  
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) I think they do, and I think your analogy is unfair. One could argue that tyranny, evil, and oppression are unavoidable in this world-- to defend against such is both honorable and necessary. To me, *that* is where TLC focuses their attention (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) I am disheartened by both TLC's attitude toward how people use their products and this reaction from LUGNET (so much for a family newsgroup, eh). If TLC is sucessful in their pursuit to remove objectionable films made with their products, I (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
