You can rarely fail with comedy. I mean...its LEGO! Half of the jokes are already written (not that comedy is easy...)[/quote]

You've got a good point there.  Making something serious can fall apart so easily.  It annoys me when people try but fail miserably.

Pushover, for instance, is an excellent comedy filmer, but I don't think he could do anything serious very well.  LEGO itself is kinda hard to take seriously which makes it especially challenging.  So seeing a good serious film is more of a rare gem.  I only have one mostly serious script myself, Vampire Cinema, but the scripts is like 30 pages long and it's going to take ages if I get around it it.

Most of my films are comedies, which I usually actually find ridiculously easy to write.  And after I'm done my scripts rarely ever get any significant revisions.  I feel a little bit bad about this, because I feel I should be improving it, but I usually can't think of anything more to add or revise and so I just stick to it, but luckily most people seem to think it's okay.

For the script of Welcome to Darkmoor, I started it out thinking I was going to write a lolwut comedy and then it turned into a sort of thriller/horror as I started going, which was not really my intention, but I stuck with it.

Though I'd go back to my original comment in that a good film is good.  A good film can come from anywhere, which is the important thing.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Like Squid, I don't really have a preference. I keep trying to force myself to pick one, but I can't. If anything I'd say longer films that have a high enough technical quality that one is really able to be immersed within the film, but that's not really a genre. I think the LEGO medium is best suited to comedy, but that's not necessarily my favorite. :)]]></content>

In that case, I'd say comedy. Any well made brickfilm is always nice, though.]]></content>
