I hate to break it to you. But, Mindgame made a brickfilm with the same idea a few years ago.
Also, the swearing made it unfunny. And the shaky cam effect didn't look very interesting.
I have to agree with Mickey. These "it's a bird, it's a plane," jokes are really getting old. I have seen a handful of brick films with the same joke. I don't mean to be so negative, but it's true.

Guess it was a crappy experience for that guy eh LOL. Crude but funny.
How am I supposed to know every darn brickfilm that has been made? I had this idea figured on my own a week ago, now having watched Zach's video I can agree that it's very similar but there are hundreds of similar Superhero brickfilms on youtube. In fact there are hundreds of similar "Shoot-Out"/elimination type of videos yet none of you guys say "yo, you stole Keshen8's idea" (cause he made quite a few shoot-out brickfilms) or somethin' like that. Those ideas are not original in the first place so you can't claim that somebody stole it, they are easy to figure.
But in the old intro of the Super man (TV-series or something) has saying: "It's a bird!" , "It's a plane!" , "It's a Super man!"
It's a common phrase that's been spoofed many times. (Example - start at 3:58)
I have to agree the joke wasn't funny at all, especially with the language. And the post camera shake looked didn't look very good.

Well yeah, this was a parody.
Give the guy a break, it's a lot better than some of the rubbish I've seen on here lately
Yeah, leave Larry alone. Leave him alone.
No, this idea was not the same as MindGame's. MG's was on the actual phrase itself and how stupid it was, this was about a piece of crap that fell out of the air.
Anyway, I thought the animation was a little bit choppy, but it was only short so it wasn't too bad.
Also I have a question.
I'm not sure, and is it just me or do lots of brickfilms these days have motion blur added to make the animation look better?

Sometimes I'm just practicing new stuff and making these little tests (like lens flares or motion blur) in my videos. That's all. Did it really look better? Because I kinda think it would've been fine without it to be honest.

Thanks a lot! My opinion is exactly like yours, however I guess these guys expect more from me since I've been around for years now 
I just felt a little rusty during this animation and this was supposed to be just a short video filler for my subscribers. The audience in BiM (this site) is quite different from the youtube one. People are very picky here and this video wasn't meant to please BiM members, I would've done a completely different brickfilm if I wanted that.
Guys, he made this video to please people who like seeing characters get hit in the face with mysteriously-appearing feces, not for you.

Apparently there's plenty of them.
I thought it was awesome.
Everything has been done before, or on the Simpsons (South park Season 6, Episode 7)
That's an old joke I remember from primary school. It's a bird, it's a plane, oh no, it was a bird.
Anything that get's you animating is a good thing Larry. You did a good job on this.
Although I don't think you needed to spell it out so much. I prefer not to be spoon fed everything.
Sure more people will get the gag but it's not needed imo.
I love the controversy this has caused and in doing so has got a lot more views than some people would apparently think it deserves
I like how some of you find the word '!@#$' being said in this video worse than actually seeing a character get !@#$ in the face.

Thank you for positive feedback, this stuff seems rare these days in BiM

I find that fascinating
