This is a music video for a song by Fight Like Apes. I originally started the project because (a) I wanted to practise facial animation and (b) I wanted to animate a choir of rock monsters. I have achieved both of those aims.
It kind of grew out of control while I was making it and I'm not sure the "story" makes a whole lot of sense.

AWWW BABY BABY BABY!
Tried to post a comment twice on YouTube but it doesn't seem to be letting me...
I thought this was great, man. Really awesome facial animation too!
Haha, nice!
That was the best random brickfilm I've seen.
Very well made. Not a fan of the song though.

Cheers, dude. Even after a day synching all those mouth shapes up, the miners still made me laugh. Some quality voice work right there.
Sooooooo cool, I am surprised by the cinematography
The set was great. The animation was very good. I loved the rock monster chorus.
5/5. I loved it, and it was 1000x better than what I could do, maybe even more.
Very nice job with the facial animation. It's good to see you making films again.
My god that was awesome. The rock monster choir was hilarious and the face animation was fantastic! Great work 0ldScratch, I loved every part of that.

Haha, that was great. I laughed when I saw the choir of Rock Monsters. It was pretty hilarious.

I just love this, magic, that you make.
This is one of few brickfilms that inexplicably puts a smile on my face. I love it, absolutely LOVE it. This, this is what happiness is made of. The set design was impressive, as was the mouth animation and the stop motion. Well done, sir, you have made me fall in love once again with a leggo muuvie.

I really enjoyed this film.
Even though I loved the animation, the set, and the funniness of the miners, I still didn't make it more then halfway through the film. That is because I HATE this song, I'm gonna go watch this again (with the sound muted)
This has became one of my favorite brickfilm of 2010. It was great how you animated the Rock Monsters singing and of course the facial animation on the women miner. Probably the only thing I didn't like was the song itself. It was a bit irritating but other than that, really good film.
Well done, sir, you have made me fall in love once again with a leggo muuvie.:
Absolutely true.
This film gave me that same 'wow factor' that was forgotten from ages ago.
I still go on YouTube when I get a spare moment and look for films, but this... 
May this film inspire and spark creativity.
I'll always fall for singing rock monsters! 
And say what you will about the song, it was funny. Not to mention the miner's desperate escape.
