Usually, when a popular movie or video game franchise becomes a blockbuster hit, it isn’t too long before a LEGO adaptation follows, as presented by this LEGO Black Ops viral. From Star Wars and Indiana Jones, to Harry Potter and Pirates of the Caribbean, LEGO game adaptations have gone on to be wildly successful for years on end. Unfortunately however, not every movie or video game is deemed appropriate for official LEGO conversion.

His film is fast, furious and funny, but also surprisingly indicative of how fun a LEGO Black Ops game would be.
