I loved this NXT. 
Gaaahhhhhh! I love your brickfilms so much! xD Definitely one of the best brickfilmers ever.
The animation was amazing, especially stuff like the bursting walls of bricks, and the scene changes where stuff was building.
The music was nice and went well with this.
I don't see why some of you hate it.
That was beautiful. It actually got steadily better and better. I've always loved this song, and the film made it even more enjoyable. While Hazzat's point
I remember this quote:
David Pagano once wrote:..the first rule of music video creation -- don't just show what the song says.
is noted and accepted as true, I honestly don't think it mattered much. It was noticeable, of course, but I really don't see how else to make that song in Lego. I loved the guillotine design, and the "wind" animation, among other things. I also liked how you incorporated scenes from animation challenge entries into this. The lighting was a little bland right up until the
"Hell" scene.
My favorite part had do be
The huge, zooming shot at the end.
Either that, or
The bit where he puts his cape on and jumps through the mirror.
This was very well done. Worth the anticipation.
4.8/5

That was just beautiful NXT. True animation at it's best. I love the story told, the band, but what I think you succeeded at the most was the lifelike movement of the drummer. I was most impressed by that. Great job!
That. Was. Amazing.
Everything in it was so well done, from the animation, to the cinematography. I especially liked the animated effects and the drummer's animation. Fantastic job.
Spectacular. I am utterly blown away. It seems like everyone has even a little niggle with it, but I don't have in the slightest. I'm probably going over the top, but I thought this was fabulous. The animation, lighting, pace, and sync was just impeccable. I think perhaps my favourite thing was the camera movement, as it's not usually done in brickfilms.
So sure, it mightn't be perfect, but as far as I'm concerned it's pretty damn close, and I ain't going to nit-pick here, either. 5/5
The more I watched the more impressed I was.
This is the sound of my mind being blown. Boom.
This is FANTASTIC. Now, I particularly like the music, but that's just my opinion. The animation was amazing, and I loved the set design. That's two years of your life well spent, and 4 minutes of mine. 
NXT, this was by far your worst film I've ever seen. How could you make a film like this? Almost everything was sub-par except for the effects, which were so poor that I stopped watching the video at 1:00. I've come to expect better from you than this, but obviously my expectations were unrealistically high. tsk tsk tsk.

You had better be joking.

Your not serious, just a late April Fools joke, right?

No, he's pretty serious. As serious as a heart attack.

You clearly haven't seen MTT Attack.
Though, I actually rather enjoyed it when it came out. It was his first Brickfilm. haha
I see not how you could hate this so much, it's such a beautiful song, and you shouldn't judge something without watching the whole thing.
I really, really, really hope you're joking.

I don't get these jokes. Same with Squash on KG's video, maybe it's funny to some people, but I don't see the point. Saying random stuff which isn't true is silly.
So sterp.

I am sorry you feel this way :'(.
As for the video, it was very well done, especially the effects, which I thought were the best part of the film (Did you use the lathe tool in MLCad for the earth?). The animation was excellent as usual, and it was in sync with the lyrics. Sets and cinematography were also very well done. Great video, NXT!
4.8/5.
This....Was....AMAZING! I really liked the animation, it did start off rather slow, but it ended strong . Say is, "Kazoo" still in production? 
...the first rule of music video creation -- don't just show what the song says.
I was going to mention this, along with several other things like the awkwardness of the guitarist & pianist shots, but I realised how negative my post was. I ended up just cutting it because it didn't reflect my overall attitude towards the video. I've gone and said that stuff anyway now, so I should reiterate that this was really cool, and the production time spent on it has certainly paid off.

No, it's FUNNY, so stop trying to be the party pooper. 
When I saw the first seconds of this on youtube, I believe I started to cry. You are officially the most awesome person in existence. What else can you say except, wow. I'm glad to see such an anticipated brickfilm owned up to everything I thought it would.
Now we can place bets to see how long it will be before Coldplay notices this.

I loved this so much. I LOVE THAT SONG! Your animation was great! And I loved the story you made out of it.
I tweeted this to Coldplay, btw.
