Alles ist die Noppe


This film, titled 'Alles ist die Noppe' (All is the Stud) is possibly my favourite Brickfilm ever. Yes, it may have topped Unrenewable!

This film may look brilliant on the outside, but it has a firm base in philosophy as well as having similarities with communism. The film's description reads 'The Lego System is inhumane. Wedged into a fixed structure, always in the same lanes, with a fixed smile on its face. How can an outbreak succeed if [this structure] is omnipresent?'

But, putting the philosophical context to one side, this film is truly amazing. Beautifully lit (I loved the shot with the train and the 'sun' behind it), with great effects and - something we don't often see in a Brickfilm - the sets are wonderfully made. Making use of SNOT in several places, and with real attention to detail (see the tram, especially). This film is certainly unique and one you can watch again and again.

Ah, thank you! Sorry for my misunderstanding. Is it the word 'stud' in general, or just a Lego stud?
