Dear Cousin.
Or Beast 2, take your pick.
I'd probably buy a bunch of LEGO and make some really big sets.
I'd also get a really good fresh computer and editing software so I could edit quickly without lag or crashing and quick export.
I've also really wanted to have a digital projector.
That way, I could record something like water, then project it onto the set frame by frame. I could get a really nice water reflection effect with that.
I would go and bring all my abandoned projects back to life.
I'd buy 1/15th of a decent camera.
With $50,000? You could buy 15 "decent" cameras! (Not meaning to be rude)
EDIT: Never mind, I did research and... your right. sorry.

I was actually joking about the fact that the title reads '$50.000'. As in fifty dollars. 
I'd probably use it to buy a better animation program (read: DragonFrame), a good camera, Adobe Creative Suite, a better computer, and a whole lot of LEGO.
I'd also buy some cool extra film equipment, like a camera slider, on set lighting, and maybe a projector like Squid said above.
Oh ya, food and stuff too. Forgot about that.

no way dude. i'd recreate over the hedge, thats where its at.
I would hire an animation apprentice for the summer. I would have a composer score the whole thing. I would record all my voice actors together in a professional recording booth.
This is how I want to do chapter 3 of the Nightly news at nine. I'm hoping to do it for less than $50,000 though. Maybe like $15,000 - $20,000
Darth Vader meets the Avengers and Pirates of The Caribbean with an appearance by Batman and Gandalf.
Also I'd hire Tommy Wiseau to do all the voices.
i would put it all on LEGO® a macpro and some good cameras and lots of awesome software i would animate the film "paradox" which i have been wanting to do for a while and because i could reuse all that stuff (hehe, loopholes) i would also make my series ive been wanting to do for a while called "the governments employe"
Start up a small company, hire some writers and animators and make my dream brickfilm and then some.
Well, $50,000 for me would be £32,500 approx. I would probably buy a half decent computer, and probably parts to start my own gaming PC. The rest of the money I would probably buy a camera, some software and the rest on Lego and Mega Blok

We have a nice computer, and nice software, and a nice camera, so the money would go to buying all the legos we needed and then some. I think I would take the winter off to film a feature length that surpasses anything ever done... weeeell, maybe . I would also use what's is left to build a small warehouse to keep all of the legos (not Mego Blok) in and to be our filming studio. After that, well I would be out of money and have to go back to living the normal life again.
