Stranger than Fishin'

Something fishy is going on here...

[@customlegominifigek]

nearly 10 years later and I keep coming back to rewatch this, love it

[@DehydratedRaccoon]

Wow this brings back memories. This was one of the first Lego stopmotions I ever saw, and it inspired me to make my own as a kid, and it really peaked my interest in Legos. Excellent video even 7 years later.

[@brictator]

so smooth, so awesome

[@legomailman]

Your animation is so good. It's just so lifelike. The way the objects fell and landed, when he's reeling it in, etc. Thumbs up from me.

[@TenkanVlog]

Your animation style is awesome, man! It's pretty much flawless in this video! Well done, pal! Well done!

[@snowgroomer600]

All the things he was catching looked valuable to me.

[@AragornAnimations]

Yeah, I know right? But I guess he just really wanted fish

[@sodapopcowboy8620]

I would take the hand tools such as the crowbar, trident, and wrench.

[@sfugity]

This always gives me a smile when I watch it. It never gets old.

[@_Video_Art_]

I know, right

[@magic___window]

Genius! It's been so long since I've seen a film from you, you really are the best. This film is superb. The animation is extremely relatable and realistic , the plot was very interesting, and the punch line was hilarious. Also another extraordinary aspect was the intricate sound design. Blown away again.

[@supercoolclark]

Wow! That was amazing! The animations were all so lifelike and it had a funny storyline to it. Great job!

[@esek64]

That is some really incredible animation... Love the feet shot when he's pulling up the shark thing..

[@DallArtOrigins]

Brilliant! The script, setting, choice of heads etc.!

[@michaellegoexpert6512]

Seriously one of the best Lego animations ever!

[@miedorama]

The animation is asome, so clean, so pure, excelent FPS! Nice Work

[@brick72]

I love this masterpiece of animating. And I love this kind of humor!

[@nerdsman567]

You are an amazing lego animator!!! It's good to see your back :)

[@augusthelen7143]

Congrats in your top ten finish in Brick Bros Productions top ten list!

[@Spedding101]

Really good animation, it's seriously smooth, and the actions are realistic. Keep up the good work!

[@Deathsquad49]

excellent job with the reality and humor. a well-thought out and animated video. the figure really seemed to come out as a real human being, especially the way he kicked the fishing kit. wonderful job bravo!

[@StopTheProductions]

Good god o.O probably one one the best animated brickfilms I've ever seen!

[@Bloxy123]

I don't think there's such a person in the world that can create stopmotion like yours. It's unbelievably realistic.

[@TheChronicleStudios]

Animation: Perfect. 10.0 Audio: Strong sound FX but week music. 6.9 Story: Well paced, something a lot of brickfilms lack. 9.7 Directing: Very creative. 9.4

[@ult2winlol]

Loved this, I can't see how you animate so well using puddy on the minifigure's feet. Congrats for such an awesome video.

[@ColinEmerald]

His change of expression at 0:50 made me laugh out loud. Your sound work is fantastic in this.

[@SAVEGameUS]

I just started doing Lego Stop motion, so this is such a great display of talent

[@hunterkiller1440]

This is a beautiful set.

[@ArmedtotheTeethProd]

Dang, the animation is smooth, the lighting is perfect, and the sound quality is great! This is amazing!

[@Cliffwalker43]

[@GamerGirl2001]

[@republicattak]

[@derfalschejunge]

the end didn't touch me too much, but still it was one of the best brickfilms I've seen in a long time!

[@jackcoghlan8263]

[@SpecialAgentRavage]

[@HullaANDZulla]

[@hunterkiller1440]

ROFL!! loved the ending, it's so hilarious

[@Jay_Mlever]

Damn, 10 years ago. Did people say rofl a lot?

[@JangoBricks]

@@Jay_Mlever probably alot, 2010 is cringe

[@TheJarJarProductions]

Great brickfilm!!!!

[@JediRexMD]

The most funny, interesting, well animated film I every watched.

[@legomaniacman-Brickman]

Damn great film!!! You should make movies for the big screen ; )

[@monostratmusic]

@Jabbabob actually it's not the wilhelm scream i think it's like the cartermin scream or somthing like that. the wilhelm changes pitch a little more

[@thedustyproductions]

Wow best brickfilm i have seen in years.... ;)

[@FoerdeFilm]

Really cool .... Making of and Story!:)

[@hamstap85]

love how you change the expressions. very clever. oh, and spectacular animation on the shark-dive. epic. purely epic.

[@UnitedClipsofAmerica]

who wouldn't enjoy a nice relaxing day of fishing

[@lupinremus9617]

Camera angles are perfect, story is clear, humor is okay, and movements are great. 😀

[@_Video_Art_]

13 years later, and it's still a masterpiece

[@actulgoblin]

man I remembered how vids like this got me so into lego

[@CrazyRobloxians]

I loved how you made everything look realistic!

[@Rsteenoven]

Amazing animation as usual mate.

[@CnBCustoms]

@JohnClaudeV He used clear stud pieces to make the shark man come out of the water. If you pause you can see them. He just made the angle showing that very short so you can't really notice.

[@cwazymuffins]

Great to see you're back in action! NIce job!

[@VojtaSiman]

Pause at 2:12 (Water column) Also I can see plasticine in some shots, but great animation and good movie.

[@MitchellRyser]

I love his face when the shark comes out of the water! XD ha ha ha

[@TheNeglectables7]

2:09 vlay under his feet :D great animation!

[@kerilizmon]

That was great :D Made me smile. And great animation!

[@clock213]

Great job man!!!! that was AWESOME!!!!

[@DIM0RI]

Haven't seen so good animation from you yet.

[@WardogMac]

The look on that lego guys pissed off little face, PRICELESS!

[@GearboxStudios]

This is brilliant. Your best yet! :)

[@_danthefan]

Ah I love the smoothness of the bouncing objects!

[@MACCEentertainment]

Nice! that was pretty cool. I just got a new idea for a MACCEentertainment stop motion: Sharks and other bloodthirsty things that want to maul you. or whatever they do.

[@CavemanIncorporated]

1:13 Willhelm Scream! I love this scream! I am trying to incorporate this into one of my videos. By the way, great animation!

[@RennardFuchs]

I think the music was in Toonstruck. Nice animation dude :D

[@Lizzajr118]

Dude your animations are perfect! How do you get them to be so smooth? It must take forever! Lol "Oh boy, here's my wrench."

[@TheLdcvideos]

[@Andromeda9009]

Good moves. They look really reallistic!!!

[@flooppy1]

Haha!! Oh man, this is a great piece of work.

[@generation-a8361]

This is great! We just tried our hand at our first stop motion video, it's so much harder than it looks!

[@mata1699]

Hey man that was amazing! So smooth! Big quality! Well done! By the way you should put word "LEGO" to title, I think it can help to more views.

[@NintenBricksFilms]

Maťa

[@creativecoyote8628]

"Big quality" 720p

[@conner623]

The Parrot..... never gets old

[@namchild8277]

nice job. great spin on the 50 sign.

[@BuranLyoko]

^_^ Fantastic. That was great. I liked the way it was set to music and the humor. It must have been challenging to figure out some of the movements right? Great video.

[@TheJazzzchick]

great animation and very funny! :)

[@PixelMovies]

great animation work. I like it

[@TBDude]

The smoothest animation ever!

[@TOSParanormalCrew]

[@StudShifter]

"...as johs the shark" I love it.

[@IAMTHEMEDS]

I really really like this video! I do Lego animation also and It takes a very long time to get it this smooth. I'm amazed!

[@wenchance]

Best video yet! Great job Zach!
