Well obviously it's offensive, and a lot of the suggestive material was unnecessary, although the last line of the film loses so much without that f-bomb.

While it may not be a 'classic', it's certainly fun to watch, as it was very inspiring and well-written, and it's probably the earliest example of a buddy cop brickfilm in LEGO stop-motion history. Buddy and buddy cop films are one of our favorite genres, and it was just really cool to see someone doing something like that at the time.

The film doesn't get enough credit. Same with The Adventures of Kentucky Jackson by Something's Awry. At the very least, it's a cult classic. You can't overlook it's offbeat, quirky style and interesting take on the dynamic duo format just because of some offensive material, and again, although it was funny, it was unnecessary.]]></content>

Star Wars: The Great Disturbance should definitely be on it. We agree about Unrenewable, Days of Our Pizza, and The Profession.

And of course we couldn't forget Anne Frank in Bricks by Tom Dean. ;)]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Days of our Pizza is definitely the best family-friendly brickfilm by Keshen in my opinion. While there a few brickfilms made by Kevin that I really like, I don't think any could be considered "classical", but I think if we have any space left on the list it may be worth putting one of his up there, as he does represent a certain area of brickfilming, and I do think that all aspects of brickfilming should be covered on the list.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I think [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h8TtFK0CKU]Days of Our Pizza[/url] is the Keshen film widely considered to be a classic, as well one of his most entertaining and family friendly (pretty sure someone mentioned it already). BrotherhoodWorkshop's influence is more in the realm of spreading brickfilming to the masses, and while his filmography is impressive, I don't think any of his films by themselves come even close to being on this list. I'm more conflicted about Squid, because I love his work, my favorite being [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbvaSm1OSuM]Leprechauns in France[/url], but I don't think any of his films make a top 25 list. If we stretched it to 50, which very well may be worth doing, he'll be in the mix for sure.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Whoops, forgot about this. 

I just removed One: A Space Odyssey, added Unrenewable (for some reason I thought I had already put it on), and added No Crawme's Sing Along. 

That fills out 25 spaces nicely, but still has nothing from Keshen, Squid, and BrotherhoodWorkshop, all of whom have been fairly influential.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[So, I picked that particular musical because of the inside joke, and because the song was composed for that Brickfilm. I wanted it to honor the visual and musical skills of one of our own, rather than music of an outside source. Hence, my not suggesting Namchild's "the duel." Or one of the aforementioned music videos. 

I'm also a huge fan of 'unrenewable' as OT was one of the first major Brickfilms that I ever viewed. While somebody had suggested my noir film for the list, Smeagol's film, I feel, far surpasses it in capturing a noir atmosphere, in addition to putting a unique apocalyptic spin to it.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[The only other brickfilm that I would add would be [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djA4qJgifzc]Unrenewable[/url]. Almost every time it's been suggested as a "classic" brickfilm in the past, there's always someone to shoot it down, and I just can't understand it. It's one of Smeagol's greatest brickfilms - and definitely his most popular amongst brickfilmers.

I recommend it all the time, and think that it would, at the very least, be a great candidate for a list such as this. It can be very influential and inspiring for first time brickfilmers.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I just added Faithless, the Force Unleashed, Egyptian Holiday, Major Malfunction, and Paint, which were mentioned previously (let me know if you think any of those should be removed). 

If I removed one of the Spite Your Face films, which should go?

Pritchard suggested adding a musical brickfilm. Besides his choice (No Crawme), I was also thinking about Dylan Woodley's Houdini or MightyWanderer's Loose My Soul. Of course, they are music videos of pre-existing songs, so that might be a different situation. 

Also, it seems to me that there should be something on this list from Keshen8 and BrotherhoodWorkshop. Is this reasonable (and if so, which of their work should be on here)?]]></content>
