(...) You're probably right, Dan. I might have been a little too vehement in stating my opinions without watching the film, but the very idea that someone would do this using LEGOs appalls me. (...) That also is a good point. I believe that what (...) (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) Dan, while I'll agree with you on most points in your post, I still don't think that allowing a 14 year old to view smut (even in the ABS) is acceptible. The films (and other sites of this nature) are there for adult viewing and adult viewing (...) (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
(...) I disagree. To me, the Lego minifig as always been aracial. Yes, it tends to have the physical characteristics of a caucasian, but it is not hard to take the same skin tone and change the features and come up with a black guy. (I think this (...)

  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
I'm with Dan on this, I'd love to see this stuff myself but my 56k works agains me when downloading animation. I actually have the impression that this "smut" may actually have been done tastefully... but I may never know for myself. (...) (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)

(...) There is nothing wrong with making gay minifigs, any more than there is with making heterosexual minifigs. Sexual content may be inappropriate for kids, but a pair of gay minifigs doing non-sexual things (like simply living together, or (...) (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  Re: The Lego Group will attempt to stop some "brickfilms"
 
Eduardo, I agree with you that people should not make gay minifigs. I just didn't like the vulgar language you used to express your thoughts. Fuzzy (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.mediawatch)
 
  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 (...)

  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)
