Topic: Brickfilm of the Week: Major Malfunction (November 7, 2015)

http://bricksafe.com/files/sillypenta/MajorMalfunction.png

This week’s Brickfilm of the Week is Major Malfunction by Kyle Cullum.

Major Malfunction is a 2012 slapstick action brickfilm by Kyle "MisterMulluc" Cullum. It follows a robot on wheels that chases and fires at some men trying to have a picnic.

While Cullum was a member of Bricks in Motion (under the misspelled username MitserMulluc), he was never particularly active, and this film did not see a release here. Though not as well known as Major Malfunction, his 2009 brickfilm First Class was very well received, and he has also created animations in a number of different mediums.

This is really funny. Never heard of MisterMulluc before, but I'm already a fan. The movement of the Minifigures is unlike any I have seen before. This is a nice feel-good film, and it made me smile.

I came across this film some time ago, but didn't think much of it at the time. Watching it again though, I'm really impressed with the animation. The really loose, old-timey cartoon-like movement is just too great to ignore.
