Speaking of the Lego island OST http://youtu.be/JtPp0ovsINw

[3:34:52 PM] Jamesster: Oh wait you can't do the thing in the graveyard without the power bracelet [3:35:07 PM] McJobless: fak. [3:35:30 PM] McJobless: You guys have all the cool stuff already and all I got is a ticket to buy more medicine and a boomerang. [3:35:41 PM] McJobless: You have no idea how Australian that. [3:35:52 PM] Jamesster: haha

This can only lead to bad things. They hired Jared Stern and Michelle Morgan to write the sequel. What have they done? Jared has written ADDITIONAL content for Wreck-It Ralph, and he wrote the monstrosity that is Mr. Popper's Penguins 2011 and The Watch. And Michelle Morgan has done two movies no one's ever heard of. And both were meh. EVERYTHING IS AWFUL EVERYTHING IS CRAAAP WHEN YOU MAKE A HALFASSED SEQUEL Unikitty better be just as good tho. Best character. Benny is runner up best character.

Couldn't resist sharing this cute advert from the 80's Hope you like (if it's not been posted before etc)

Haha, hadn't seen that, I think the Lego creation in the first looks more fun though still Like when they revisited the Nevermind cover kid, don't see why...but hey.

I'm going to have to build myself one of these: http://youtu.be/SEEzQKJfNE0

This post contains dirty language and a whole lot of cursing because I'm super pissed right now. So yeah. Beware of that. I love the Guardians of the Galaxy, they've been my favorite team for a few years now and I am super hyped for the movie. But this needs to be said. Micheal Bendis f****ing ruined the Guardians of the Galaxy comics. The original v2 series written by Andy Lanning and Dan Abnett is what I consider to be some of the greatest comics ever written. All the characters were written damn well. All have appealing designs and great, yet seemingly conflicting, personalities but Lanning and Adnett made all the characters work together and it was beautiful. Then f****ing Micheal Bendis shows up. Star-Lord got hit the hardest. He went through a ton of character growth that lasted through the 80s and into 2010. He started out as a naive guy with an ego, he developed into a bit of a joker, but primarily a headstrong leader who gets s*** done. Wellp Bendis said f**** that and made Star-Lord some whiny little b**** with daddy issues. He also has a Justin Beiber haircut. "HEY DAD" "YO WHAT THE f****S WITH THE HOTTIES? THEY'RE PROBABLY DIRTY AS FUC" "WELL IM GETTIN MY d*** WET AND YU AINT, LOL FAG" Also the retconn they did to Star-Lord is f****ing terrible. In the original series, Star-Lord and Nova sacrificed themselves to kill Thanos. It was a great ass scene and a good farewell to the characters. Brings a tear to my eye almost. They sent themselves along with Thanos to the "cancerverse". A dimension that is inescapable and full of all sorts of evil crazy s***. When you go to the cancerverse, you don't get out, not without some sort of crazy explanation. So, knowing this, it would take a lot for it to make sense Star-Lord could come back from killing himself and then having his body thrown into the cancerverse. WELLP NOT FOR BENDIS Oh no, because explaining a massive f****ing plot hole would make sense. Oh and Thanos and Nova haven't come back from being dead yet. Only Star-Lord because f**** logic amirite? The other guardians got screwed up as well. Rocket Raccoon has massive chunks of back-story cut and was then written as a joke character. I know I know, he's a f****ing raccoon, wasn't he always a joke character? Well actually no. In the good GotG comics, Rocket was the backbone of the team. He believed in Star-Lord's vision and ideals more than Star-Lord himself. When s*** got heavy and the team started o fall apart, he was there to keep everyone together. Sure there was that moment of "what the f**** is that a raccoon?" but that would quickly pass as Rocket proved himself to be more than just some talking raccoon with a gun. Now Gamora and Drax just aren't themselves here either. Drax is just like a mini-hulk, and Gamora went from being the deadliest woman in the galaxy to a sub-damsel. Groot is also almost nonexistent and hardly does s***. Another issue is that, In the good GotG comics, the team has a purpose. They were formed by Star-Lord after some bigass war happened. They were there to prevent such a war/threat/otherbads*** from happening again. There's more to that, but I don't want to make this longer than it has to be. In the Bendis run, the GotG are just together because lol Idontf****ingknow. The issue here is that the threat the GotG were made to stop was, well, stopped. Star-Lord died stopping it and the team disbanded. All the characters went their separate ways and had their own stories. Of course all that was retconned by Bendis because f**** you. So all in all, Bendis f****ed up the only thing I get a raging nerd boner over. Thank f**** they are ignoring his bulls*** for the movie. If you want to read Guardians of the Galaxy to understand what is going on for the up coming movie, do NOT read the Bendis run. Read Guardians of the Galaxy: Legacy. It is one of the best comics I have ever read and it needs some serious attention. It looks like this It's getting a re-release on August 5th I think. So time travel into the future and get it. Also tell me how the movie is when you get back.

Oh. I guess hastily Googling something has failed me yet again. I guess I'm a little more skeptical now. Still, I'm happy enough that we got one fantastic movie from LEGO. At least it won't be the end of the world if the sequel stinks.

If you hadn't seen that, here's the full video - pretty gruesome though the artwork just makes me drool, then My God is the Sun kicks in... http://youtu.be/f49yRhJ0NjI

You forgot *Snip* Oh great. Now I'll be listening to those TLM tracks. Gee, thanks for posting that Ayliffe. I ended up buying the whole CD in the end, so I can listen to these songs over and over and over and over and over... Oh, and I've also been listening to one of the most positive songs ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6Sxv-sUYtM

@Mantra I was just listening to that yesterday afternoon, I hadn't seen the video until then. I have to agree, Queens of the Stone Age are just pretty fantastic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_S9VvJM1PI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-BvOuE7wfw Apologies for my relatively mainstream selection of music.

Fantastic song, artwork, awesome - may be unsuitable graphic spots for some though, however this forum works. http://youtu.be/7kzKfwwDFRc

Well, I think you guys are going to hate us now... But we just couldn't resist

That hospital theme, reminiscence... The one theme that stuck in my mind the most of LEGO Island. Makes me sob sometimes, when I think about it, especially when you get to 2:24. Back in those days when I innocently roamed the vast island. Oh how I miss those days...

Welcome to RRU, Commander Cold! Is there a nickname we can call you? I don't see people taking a liking to "Cold told me" Nice to meet another Racers fan. That's why I joined RRU as well. I'm glad you have already found this place helpful to you. Once you play the game so more, might I suggest exploring the available mods. Our diverse group of modders have already made lots of mods. If you have any issues, feel free to ask, but be sure to try the search function in the top right before making a new topic. Chances are someone has already had your issue. Don't worry about the member base here. Most are harmless, and there are a lot of jokes that go on. If you are ever concerned about something or think something that may be against the >rules (hopefully you have read those already ), you can always contact one of the forum staff members (their names are in blue, green, or yellow). Oh, and watch out for >landslides. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlUglQT4H5M

Classic Space all over the place. Neat how they make the square baseplates as round platforms.

I can't believe it. My two favorite things, domino building and LEGO System, combined! Stumbled upon this again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-IFv413Ro3I&t=24m22s Skip to 24:22 for what I mean. Also at beginning, classic 80's dutch TV intro. Back in 1988 when 30 students from three technical universities from Holland worked together on a massive domino project to beat the domino toppling record at that time. The theme was "Europe in Domino", and there were 1.500.000 dominoes set up, of which 1.382.101 toppled, a world record. In the video (when skipped to said time) the dominoes are in 'Denmark', with LEGO making an appearance (project Spaceland). The Futuron monorail is activated by the dominoes, going up the hill but promptly stops just before reaching the dominoes to topple next. No worries, a so called 'aorta' keeps running around the projects to ensure toppling subsequent projects if the previous fails to do so. Ironically, Blacktron elements are enclosed by the Futuron base. Fun thing is that one of the students who worked on this formed Weijers Domino Productions in 1989, the company which would later be known for creating the event Domino Day, first held in 1998. EDIT: Just noticed that other objects like boats (see 39:33 for example), the Eiffel tower (see 45:25) and a motorized arm (see 46:17) are also made out of LEGO bricks.

All that detail... It's so beautiful... Then I think about how much money was spent on all those Lego bricks and then I start to feel woozy. Someone cosplayed as the Infomaniac. I can't seem to find the actual source though, so I linked to a Tumblr reblog.
