Fan Made: Movie Posters in LEGO
Filed under: Fandom », Images », Posters », Fan Made »
LEGOs really are the perfect toy, aren't they? Think about it: no pesky gender divide about what boys and girls like, they thrive off of pure imagination, and they come in handy for some pretty geeky fan art. Now, we've already seen Silence of the Lambs done in LEGO, recreations of our favorite scenes, but now an industrious group of individuals at Speckyboy Design Magazine have compiled some great examples of movie posters that are made of those oh-so adaptable plastic building blocks. There's a poster here for everybody, including a few nods to the current summer movie season (my favorite just might be the Inglourious Basterds recreation courtesy of Dr. Sinister -- it's not easy to find a bat that small), but we've also got some classics like Jaws by LegoLyons, and Rocky by Marcin ImpreSariO to round out the mix.
So it just goes to show that with a little imagination and a few plastic blocks, there is no limit to what a fan can, or will do. Check out some of our favorites in the gallery below.
Fan Made: Dave Perillo Animates Pop Culture and Movies
Filed under: Fandom »
From Doctor Who and Rod Sterling to Wonder Woman and Godzilla, Illustrator Dave Perillo has been morphing pop culture for a while now. While reading through /film today, I came across a post on his artwork and I had to share. This guy has done it all. Sloth and Chunk. Lando Calrissian. V. Nacho Libre. And the wonderful, ginormous chin of Ash.
If you haven't checked his art out yet, please go to Montygog's Art-O-Rama and check it out. It's really great. That being said, it does leave me with sad-fan nostalgia for Clone High, since a lot of the art looks very similar to the doomed show's animation. And since most of the pics are movie-themed, now I'm thinking of Hollywood High -- a potential show where all of Perillo's characters meet and go to school. From detergent bottles to boomsticks, it'd definitely be an interesting mix.
