Lego Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Brick

Raiders of the Lost Brick is one of the best made animated short films I've ever watched. The Lego animation is awesome, and with all the funny references to other movies like star wars and just other hilarious jokes, this is a video I've watched over and over again and never get bored! It incorporates characters and scenes from all the Indiana Jones movies and every part of this video is really clever and just plain awesome. I also really enjoyed the music is the short film, it has the classic Indy theme as well as lots of other awesome music and sound effects! You can watch this movie at Lego.com, just go under the Indiana Jones section and it will be there! Enjoy!

I'm astounded, I'm appalled, I'm dumbfounded. This is one of the worst things I've ever watched. The humor is so dry and drab and dank with so little content with actual substance that it becomes nearly impossible to watch. I don't understand how anyone can watch this and like it, the characters are so unexpectedly inaccurate to the source material that it had me on the brink of insanity. This is worse than Antz on the gameboy color, more disappointing than garten of banban, and it makes me want to slam my head into a brick wall more then the smurfs (2011).

DO NOT WATCH THIS, IT'S SO BAD!!!!!

While I really like later LEGO video-productions, Lego Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Brick humour seems quite forced and simply unfunny to me. Mostly the same scenes that have been spoofed hundreds of times elsewhere - and in a better way. "Weird Al" Yankovic's UHF comes to mind first.. come to think of it - even Muppet Babies did it better.

But what really killed this short for me was an inclusion of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - just like it was worth of (or needed) any parodying at all.

10 Lines /sigh/ ..what else can be said about this? Someone tried - and mostly failed. The good outcome is that at some point LEGO spoofs became funnier and while I'm still not entirely convinced to the whole LEGO Games / LEGO TV Shows sell-push-driven 'craze' - we still (possibly thanks to those beginnings) have e.g. LEGO Movie - which is genuinely original and *much* funnier.
