AND NOW:

I said I was gonna talk about The Simpsons BRICK-TACULAR Special so thats what I'm gonna do. It was AMAZING!!! To see all the simpsons characters as LEGO people. The whole town of Springfield was made out of LEGO Bricks. The water that came out of the sink and the beer that Homer and his friends drank were made out of those small LEGO studs. Also they had the simpsons LEGO Calendar box(I was talking about those type of LEGO boxes in my last post). And I bet every kid who had LEGOS mixed different box sets together to make something huge. Well as South Park once said "The Simpsons did it".It was very fleshed out...err...bricked out. Well it was both because this special was a mix of 2D animation and LEGO stop-motion. And it wasn't randomly done. It was incorporated in the story very well.

 Just gonna tell you that it was one of those Homer Lisa relationship episodes (which are the best ones). Homer builds a LEGO set with Lisa and realizes that hanging out with his kids is actually fun. So they kick it up a notch and enter a LEGO Building competition where they build the town of Springfield. But Lisa changes her mind when the popular girls want to hang out with her and watch The Survival Games. Homer ends up entering alone when Comic book guy's creation falls on Homer sending him into a subconscious LEGO town where everything is perfect...or so it seems. This episode was one of the best episodes I've seen in a while. It brought me back to my childhood. It was very nostalgic.

LEGO Nostalgia

Remember those LEGO Calendars? You know those LEGO boxes that had you build something small for each day of the month. It was SOOO cool. I had December (cuz i got it for christmas). It had me building lots of different planes and copters. There was even a big christmas picture on the back of the box that you could color in. It was the first boxset of LEGOS I ever got. You could even combine the small vehicles to make a bigger, more cooler machine. I gotta say that box of LEGOS kept me entertained for a long time.

As I grew up I never really got anymore LEGOS. But that didn't mean I stopped loving them. In Middle School I joined the LEGO Robotics Club and we entered the Tournament. I would also always be interested in the news when the reporters talked about artist who did LEGO Art. All I could say was WOW. There were many different sculptures made with LEGOS. My favorite one was of the Statue Of Liberty. It was cool man. Yeah Im New York biased.

Then People did LEGO stop-motion videos on Youtube! I was like: This is AWESOME! They're ALIIIVE!!! From little movies to big fight scenes they were all pretty impressive. Finally Hollywood got in the game and made The Lego Movie. I gotta be honest though. I haven't exactly...uhh...seen it...yet.

READERS: WHAT!?!

ME: I don't always have movie theater money...

READERS: It's LEGOS first movie!!! And a ticket is only a couple bucks!!! What do you do with the money you do get? What about birthdays and christmas?

ME: My birthday and christmas money gets blown on video games. I have no social life. I'm a shut in.

READERS: So what were you building towards in this Blog Post? Are you even a Fan of LEGOS?

ME: YES. I SWEAR!!! In fact i was building you guys up to talk about The Simpsons Brick-Tacular Special!
