Is this the right place to post this?
Edward And Friends , it used to be on T.V.O. in the early 90`s
I remember seeing this show as a kid! It was supposedly the first official brickfilm. Does anyone else remember this?
''i tought The Magic Portal was the first 
''
Uh, What? 
Interesting. There seems to have been an active production of "professional" brickfilms in 1987. The original LEGO Sports was also released in that year. Then, of course there's the amateur brickfilm The Magic Portal which, while released in 1989, was made in a four year time span.
I hadn't heard of Edward and Friends before. Thanks for sharing. 
WDLN produces also claims to be one of the oldest brickfilmers. His The Original Movie seems to have come from 1985 and his Oh Well appears to have come from 1989. Just thought I might throw that out there as a point of interest.

Epic film, brings back memories.
Yeah, the Magic Portal was made back in the 70's or 80's.
I bet someone must have thought of "Stop motion with legos" But didnt post it on the web. Put 2 and 2 together.
The Internet "as we know it" wasn't invented until 1989 by a British guy.(Can't remember the name.)

Tim Berners-Lee it was.
That's right! *donks self on forehead.*
I thought the earliest known brickfilm came out before The Magic Portal, and was made by a teenage girl.
It was on Wikipedia somewhere.
