James Bond GunsBond S GunJames Bond StyleBond PistolJames Bond MoviesPistol That'SAuto Pistol10 HandgunsHandguns Rifles ShotgunsForwardWalther PPKs - James Bond's Gun (I used to have one too, THAT's why its cool)The dramatic opening scenes of the hit James Bond film Casino Royale has been recreated - entirely out of Lego.Every single shot from James Bond's famous gun barrel pose to the brutal bathroom fight scene starring Daniel Craig has been perfectly replicated in the three minute 29 second clip.The video was produced by 26-year-old Lego enthusiast who runs the online community for 'everything Lego' called Bricktease. The opening scene: A car pulls up outside a building in Prague in the black and white clip - just like in the original Casino Royale film Lego man: The MI6 officer head to office in the building lift - unaware James Bond is waiting for him Waiting game: The MI6 agent then spots James Bond played by Daniel Craig, pictured in Lego form, sitting in the office
It took him three weeks in total to make the clip using stop motion animation to retell the story of the opening sequence, scene by scene, against the sound reel from the actual film. Just like in the movie, Bond is sitting in a chair in the dark waiting for a MI6 section chief he has been tasked with killing. It even includes the flashback to Bond's first kill - a gritty bathroom brawl ending with Bond's assailant drowned in a sink - before he kills his current target.And despite being made out of Lego, the clip - which is all in black and white just like the movie - retains the mystique of the original film., the creator of the Lego clip said: 'I started work on Casino Royale about three weeks ago. Confrontation: James Bond accuses the MI6 agent of leaking secret information for money in the clip which has identical camera angles to actual film Attention is in the detail: The clip, which took three weeks to complete, even features James Bond's flash back of the first man he killed
Lego art: The 26-year-old creator of the clip - who founded the website Bricktease - used stop motion animation to make the video 'I spend a fair bit of time going through the video and working out what scenes and camera angels there are, and plan my work to suit, so I don’t waste any time. 'I spent about two or three weeks actually filming, when I had a spare hour or two I would find a short scene or shot and do that.'I find that planning it all out really helps me work quickly and efficiently.'Asked how he made the clip, he added: 'Practice. If you see some of my very first videos, they are pretty amateur. Wobbly camera, dodgy movement of pieces etc… over the last few videos I have been trying to get as smooth as possible. And I still have a long way to go!'He added that he always strives to use Lego as much as possible - such as the clear bricks representing the water in the sink. Graphic: Clear Lego bricks are even used to represent water as James Bond attempts to drown his assailant in the bathroom sink
Set up: When the clip reverts back to the office, the MI6 agent attempts to shoot James Bond, but he has removed the bullets from his gun Now a 007: James Bond then shoots the agent before another quick flashback to the bathroom where he shoots his first ever a kill Iconic: The famous gun barrel fills the scene as the James Bond theme tune starts to play He continued: 'I have a personal preference that I want the videos to be as immersive as possible. So you don’t see anything that isn’t Lego unless you absolutely have to. 'It is really hard to get lips moving that looks realistic, so I am avoiding it for now. But I will one day work out how to do it (and do it well).'The video has greeted with delight by Bond and Lego fans alike with 364,857 people having watched it on YouTube.Despite calls for Bricktease to make an entire Lego version of the film, he admitted he didn't have enough actual Lego to do that.But he added he will be making a new clip every single month this year.
Now watch the original scene from Casino RoyaleFor those hoping to see a movie that acknowledges the entire history of DC Entertainment’s Dark Knight, rest easy: Such a film is on the way — but it’s not the one with Ben Affleck under the cape and cowl. “Rest assured every era of Batman filmmaking will be acknowledged,” The Lego Movie’s Chris Miller told Empire about plans for the franchise’s Batman-centric spinoff. “There have been so many interpretations of Batman and there is so much to play with there. There are 40 versions of his origin story alone.” And, yes, that means a long-awaited return to the good humor of the 1960s Batman TV series. “Adam West was the last happy Batman — Adam West seemed so excited!” Miller’s partner Phil Lord remembered. “He did it like James Bond kind of, like Roger Moore: ‘I’m so happy to be here!’” Miller said that both of the announced Lego Movie spinoffs — in addition to The Lego Batman Movie, Lego Ninjago is also in the works — will “have their own tone and their own voice,” but the two will co-exist inside the fictional universe of the original Lego Movie, with Lord likening it to a reverse Marvel Studios situation.
“We started with The Avengers and now we’re going to spin off and explore the different worlds, then come back,” he said. The Lego Batman Movie is scheduled for release in 2017.
