Re: The Day the Brickfilmers Rebeled

I have my doubts, but I really dont see why you shouldn't try. Good luck!

Please people. STOP MAKING POINTLESS THREADS. Thanks to Eddie and phantom, we've already increased the number to 3 (4 if you count the deleted one). JUST NO.

This thread isn't pointless. He's trying to start a community project.

I was already thinking about doing a documentary about "The Split" when Eddie started this thread. It would be much more successful if we did it all together.

The fact you refer to IMDB makes your post invalid.

But, I do agree with you.

Re: The Day the Brickfilmers Rebeled

Yeah, I too question the validity of the list. But it proves that they are humongously popular films - so the majority of the public like it. And its very refreshing to NOT have 'Citizen Kane' in the Top 10.

Anyways: I have said all I need to say, as I think has everyone else. I hope this will be the last post made that doesn't contribute to the concept.

I just have one suggestion. TaaB should be CGI, so that we get a real Uncanny Valley feel from her.

I saw some of the split, but I had no account then, because my parents didn't let me...


I had no idea about the blackmail though...


To me, TaaB sounds like someone who didn't understand what she was doing, and mis-understood the reason for the site, and didn't communicate enough to see what she was doing wrong.

I thought this was about someone's Parents for a second there.

I never saw Brickfilms.com before death.

Re: The Day the Brickfilmers Rebeled

Do it yourself. From what I ssee, joint projects tend to be disorganized and don't get finished.

Re: The Day the Brickfilmers Rebeled

You mean like a community project? Yeah, they tend to end up dying, Super, Boom Di Yada, one that BertL organized, and a couple more I can't remember all died slow painful deaths (not because of the organizer), the only successful one that I can remember was "The Day Brickfilms.com Crashed", which worked because it was all just random scenes of people, and there weren't assigned scenes. If someone didn't do their scene, that was fine.

So basically, if you're really motivated to make this film, then probably do it on your own, because you only need to depend on yourself. Or maybe you could try a co-production. Working with someone else on a project really makes you more motivated to get it finished, plus it takes a big load off of you.

Oh, and you spelled "rebelled" wrong, btw.

Looks like we got ourselves *sunglasses* a murder mystery.

Ok. As much as I would like to make a community project, I think I'll make one by myself. But, I will be open to recommendations, and if some people who were there during the split want to record voices, I would be very grateful! Just give me your name and I will send you a PM with your lines and what email to send the redordings to. mini/bigsmile
