Ah, or Ahhhhh, a minimalist Lego animation about people(?).

Oooo kay.

That went from satirical depiction of human life in the city of Ahhhhh to WTF in a really big hurry.

The experiment of turning the blocks all white was kind of cool. It's weird how we can read emotions into tiny little blocks without even eyebrows on them.

It seems that they ran out of ideas about halfway through this. But there is undeniably something about Lego stop-motion animation that deeply pleases me. Also: excellent audio work.

That was cool; I enjoyed its lack of focus.

That was quite entertaining. I like the mix of wry stop-motion and ott Star Wars whatchamacallitery.

How many more times can I link my brother's LEGO Lovecraft before getting in trouble?

This was great partly because it got back to LEGO basics. I've been playing LEGO Batman and it seems so far removed from Lego sometimes. Most of the new sets seem to add more complexity and more specificity. This video is just a blank slate that brings back the pure joy of snapping pieces together.

I did not like all the rape
