Lego For Adults: The Darker Side Of The Building Block
Posted by NickTheGreek, 18 Apr 2011, 12:39 PM in www.yourforum.gr
It¢s not a lie when someone says, “You never get too old to play with Lego.” It¢s such a creative endeavor and there is no end to the possibilities of your builds. A huge theme throughout the years has been to legolize movies so that the kids can act out their own little adventures with their favorite movie characters. So far, Star Wars has been, by far, the most successful legolization. It seems there¢s no limit to what can be built with Lego and I continuously come across elaborate and insane builds, each one more impressive than the next.
So far, there hasn¢t been any campaigns focused on adults and maybe that¢s because Lego still sees their little building block as a young person¢s endeavor. However, there are probably as many adults playing with these wondrous blocks as kids, and they even build stuff as big as your average house.
There have; however, been some unofficial (or at least I think they are) Lego ads that you just wouldn¢t believe. Some are crazy and creative, yet somewhat tasteless and disturbing. The weird thing is that no matter how tasteless and over the edge you might think they are, we still need to have a closer look at what this is really all about. Watching these pictures really puts Lego in another perspective. The censorship block look is really making the picture quite interesting and even though the girl isn¢t built out of Lego, it¢s still a neatly done effect that is nothing less than impressive.
It takes me back to the days of the Commodore 64 with its 8Bit graphics which resembles that of the block pieces in these pictures. It¢s like taking an express train back to the 1980′s when everything built out of large pixels on a screen was pure wonder and inspiration. Say what you will about these pictures, but there is one fact we can¢t disagree on… it¢s insanely creative! And it caught your eye… didn¢t it?
