ANIMATION - Spidy Battles Doc Oc in legovision (stop animation)

  • Spider-Man: The Peril of Doc Ock (2004)


  • This is possibly the best, if not only, lego stop motion animation I've witnessed to date. The comedy that comes across with these lego blocks is quite amazing and the the shots are simply cinematic. The accompanying music is also excellent. Done by Spite Your Face Productions Ltd, commisioned by Sony Pictures/Marvel Studios/The Lego Group to accompany the release of Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2. Watch Spidey and doc Oc battle it out in a giant New York City made of legos!

    The only Lego stop-motion video you've seen? Horrors! You've never witnessed the Lego version of the "Knights of the Round Table" dance sequence from Monty Python's "The Holy Grail?"

    Well... allow me to make your day:

    Nice try. This "The Holy Grail" clip took all of the funny stuff and replaced it with barely moving kids toys. I watched the entire clip without so much as a snicker. Since the flying circus fellows speak a foreign language. I find it impossible to understand what they say. The only thing that makes monty python funny is the performers. So, next time this person decides to make a stop motion lego movie of monty python, I would recommend hiring real actors to fill in for the legos
