Re: Name Suggestions

I meant that the guy you originally named Bob would be called Brickhead and the character you named Larry would be called Bob. I know, it's confusing. I thought that the more fun one should have a nickname.

I get how you think Brickhead sounds like a mean name, like an equivalent to "blockhead". Or it could be just a name ending in "head" sounds like someone is calling someone a name as if to make fun of them. But that's not always the case. There's a character in Archie Comics called Jughead, which isn't meant to be a insulting nickname. As long as it doesn't have an established meaning, I think it's okay to use. So what's wrong with Brickhead? That doesn't have an established meaning.

Besides, "Brickley" sounds more like a last name instead of a nickname. And "Brickles" sounds like some kind of cereal (I think it just sounds wierd).

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Ya, my brother also thought Brickles was wierd. Like you said I just thought it might come across as "blockhead" to others. I don't know, still thinking it through.

I mean really, another dynamic duo? Can you try thinking of something that hasn't already been done to death?

Is there anything wrong with having a dynamic duo? I think it would be nice to always have someone to look back too when you can't think of charictures for a Brickfilm. I don't know that it has been done to death yet either. though I probibly don't know what I'm Talking about mini/tongue
