Ha, I'll definitely enter this. September 1st looks a tad long. I'd go for... perhaps July, or August 1st.
Good luck to all.

This will be fun.

EDIT: To where should we upload the film?

Ok, then. Thanks.
I'll start planning next week.

Okay BG, here are my answers:

1) I understand that totally.
2) I never said you had to work in partners. I can change the rules if you think this is a bad idea. Just let me know.
3) The scene can be any length, and five minutes isn't actually that long - just watch The Matrix Reloaded or Revenge of the Sith, where the fights go on for 4 to 10 minutes each. Plus, some advanced effects take a long time to do, so doing more than one will take time.

I hope I have given you an appropriate response.

Well, you could keep the partners option if you want, I just think that it's not the greatest idea ever. Also, we're talking about a brickfilm, not a full out movie. Chances are, unless you're making a film all about a single fight that goes on for ever or are making over a 30 min. brickfilm, you won't have a fight scene anywhere near that long. I think it would not be appropriate if we had to wait about 3 months each time for someone to win and the next theme to be announced. It doesn't seem like the greatest idea.

But yeah, the only think I don't like is how much time there is to do this.

Is there a certain type of effect to use, Or do you just create something randomly?

Yes, it can.

I never said you had to, but some people aren't able to produce original scores. A website I would recommend for royalty-free, CC-licencsed music is this guy. It is my understanding that people on this site already use his music, but for those of you that didn't know, voila!

And it isn't technically piracy. As long as you don't make any money from it, you're using it under the 1978 Copyright Fair Use Act. YouTube is powerless against it, and it's totally legal. Look at all of my videos where I use movie OSTs, and you'll see the disclaimer.

Anything. And it can be a variety of things, too.

Deadline is now August 5th. Thanks for the tip, BG.

Also, does anyone wish to judge? You can still make a video, but it won't qualify as an official entry, as that would be unfair. I myself am making a video (Superman Vs Bizarro), but it won't be entered into the challenge as an actual entry.

So, any volunteers?

Well, no offense skwizitanee, but I think it would be more appropriate if we had someone with a little more experience, like Smeagol or NickDurron.

EDIT: Sorry, that came out the wrong way. You can still be a judge, but I think we should have someone else a judge as well.
