Video for your entertainment

Post by harrelmusic » Tue Jan 17, 2012 6:38 am

I hope you enjoy this short film my family and I put together over the long weekend (and with the help of a snow day last Thursday).

It will take a true lego fan to really appreciate it. :-)

http://vimeo.com/35176078" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Synopsis:
"Collect every mystery minifigure in the hot new Series 6!

But first, you must prepare for the grueling challenge of carefully feeling the contents of the bag so you know exactly what you'll be getting.

This is the story of a hopeless AFOL trying to teach his kids the skills required to do just that. In the end, as is often the case, it's the kids who teach the father. Let's hope this AFOL learns a thing or two about LEGO from the real pros. "

Thanks for sharing, funny and often true. It must be their smaller fingers.

OOOH! Diploma!

My daughter and I just watched it and have to say: good job. We laughed quite a bit and can put ourselves in the same boat as my daughter has felt and guessed correctly while I have not. Thanks for this.

Thanks for all the comments. I've been sharing with the boys. Now they want some Series 6 even more. ;-)

I'm sure we'll do another project soon!

I love it. Thanks for sharing.

Did you ask them why they put the bags to their heads? Were they smelling, using their sensitive cheeck nerves to feel, or trying to channel the answer through osmosis? :P

They were just doing some improv with the camera rolling and one went with smell, which I thought was kind of funny, and the youngest, always looking to be a 1-upper, just mashed his face on it....crazy guys. :crazy: The youngest did one for the outtake reel where he pretended to struggle with opening it then fell out of his chair.
