Lego knows no bounds, and that’s officially proven with these hilarious movie poster re-makes, all done with Lego.
The Lego remakes include classics like ‘Jaws,’ alongside modern movies like ‘X Men: Origins.” My favorite is ‘I am Lego,’ but the bad ass Bruce Willis lego is almost as wonderful. Seems like a great way to use a classic toy.
Implications - LEGO mini figures are more popular today than ever, with designer recognizing the versatility of these toy blocks as a respected medium. Not only is LEGO easy to build with, it resonates well with the consumer who enjoys a little bit of nostalgia, and if this nostalgia is combined with pop cultural reference as seen with these LEGO remakes, then the results are sure to be memorable.
