Blocks, Bytes and Lego Mario

With Nintendo making a big splash with the DS this year, the return of the most popular Nintendo icon - Mario - is but inevitable. With the plump plumber coming a very long way since his FamiCom days, it only seems fitting that he grace the twin screens of the DS as well.

However, some people with formidable Lego collections (and a bit of too much time) just can't wait at all. Using various Lego pieces, one aspiring film maker - who goes by the name of James Whitehead - has resorted to stop animation to recreate Stage 1-1 (or at least a part of it) of the classic Super Mario Brothers game. Whether there have been requests for additional goombas or for a take on Stage 1-2 as well, is yet to be known.

A nice effort, but this certainly isn't the first level of Super Mario Bros., although it contains aspects that are featured therein. It lets down, because it's neither great Lego building, nor great video-game geekery, just someone vaguely interested in both with a stop-motion camera and some time.



4 out of 10, perhaps.

@ 1 and 2 this guy just made a video clip. I'm sure he didn't make it just to impress you.



I will give him credit. Nice effort.

I'm pleased he didn't make it to impress me, or he would have failed more completely than he already has. Be honest, *anyone* could do that job in an afternoon, if they have the Lego and the camera to hand. I'm not saying it's terrible, but it's not very good either.
