Hey! A lot of time has passed since I made ‘Protectors of the Earth’ and I'm now studying directing and screenwriting at filmschool. I made my first short there, which has been shown at 30 film festivals in 10 different countries so far. Now it's also on KZbin and I would be so glad if you'd give it a try: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5PGdnmDpZ2ropI Thank you for all your support over the years!!

[@easyfoxproductions]

Bro, the fact that this was made 9yrs ago is just insane!!

No idea why you didn't win an Oscar award, this could have been a Hollywood million dollar production. 10/10

you cant win an oscar award with legos stop saying these dumb jokes

[@ABrickInterest]

Words cannot describe how truly amazing this is. The CGI is phenomenal and the stop motion is beautiful along with the characters and story. This is honestly one of the best Brickfilms in existence.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS ? I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS FILM ONLY HAS GOTTEN A LITTLE MORE THAN 300,000. VIEWS. The animation is awesome. The music and sound effects were recorded very well, damn this film is really really good. And I'm glad this film was uploaded in 1080. IT SHOULD HAVE HAD AT LEAST 30 MILLION VIEWS...I'm subscribing. Voices just need a little effect processing that all. EXCELLENT PIECE OF WORK, JUST OUTSTANDING.

Easily added to best brickfilms of all time!! u deserve about 1 million subs!! Also pls tell me how u got it so smooth, with motion blur and stuff!

[@JonasSteinacker]

+Lego Migginy Thank you. I used a feature called Pixel Motion in After Effects. It basically calculates a certain amount of frames between your actual images and thereby allows you to get smoother animation, just search for it on youtube and you will find many tutorials :)

[@legomigginy4054]

thx, and i will

Wow. First of all, amazing film. This is just insane. Second.. 600 hours?! Wow. Wow. I just can't stop saying wow!! This movie is just insane. It took you a long time, and I would like to thank you on behalf of pretty much everyone who watched this for taking all that time to make this. That is awesome and thank you once again for the entertainment. The plot is very unique and amazing - there should be an in-real life version of this. I know this was made over two months ago, but I hope you are still reading this and I hope you continue to make these brilliant movies. One question - why are a lot of people in the comments speaking German? And you yourself - are you German? I was just wondering, I know this is off topic but yeh. xD Well done.
