Lego Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2
I made a short Lego film based off of the video game, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2. Enjoy!

Great video, but it looks like you copied fancypants.

I DID NOT COPY ANYONE! It is based off of the game, The Force Unleashed II
okay, sorry
It was pretty good. would have been better if he had moved more though.
Question: what did u use for the light saber effects?

Technically, this film was good. The effects were fine, and the animation was okay (the lightsaber sounds got on my nerve a bit though). Plot wise, it sort of seemed like you copied fancypants (who based it off the video game). It does not feel as if it's 2. It feels as if it is a re-make of fancypant's just with other characters. What I mean by this is that the plot was mainly the same: There's storm troopers, he owns them, then another jedi (this case sith) comes along, and he knocks him to the ground.
One part I did like was the choice between choosing the good side or the bad. I like the fact of having an option, but the evil choice didn't seem correct. I just didn't like it.
But I've never played #2, so I may be entirely wrong. I didn't even know who that sith was (if he was). Other than that, good job.

I have to agree - even some of the movements, camera angles and the set in the film were like in Fancypants' version. But otherwise I thought it was pretty good!
4/5

LS maker 
I liked it! You did an awesome job, and I DO NOT think you copied fancypants at all.
I realize both your video and Fancypants's draw some (loose) inspiration from the games, but the similarities to FP's video here are too strong to be explained away by that. The progression of events is largely the same until the end, and the set design is similar as well. I wouldn't have a problem with that except that you're fervently denying drawing inspiration from his video when it is obviously there.
That said, I liked the rotoscoping work in this for the most part and this is a pretty solid lightsaber fight. It did sometimes have a lack of momentum or speed to it; I'd suggest that bigger movements between frames could at times be beneficial in trying to create something more dramatic and visceral.
It's nice, but not so good as Fancypants'. 
Am I right in saying lsmaker doesn't work for mac?
I liked this video, but I think it would have been better with more camera moves and shaky cam.
The lightsabers effects were cool, and the end(s) where very nice according to TFU II.
It was alright... Moves a little slow and it's not quite as intense as Fancypants' video

Only for Windows, sorry.
I didn't want my video to be like FP's video. I was verry disapointed when I watched my finished video. 
I would have made the video in Tipoca City, but I failed to make the set. Without the different location the video turned out to be more of mix between The Force Unleashed 1 and 2. I didn't try to copy FP's camera angles or movements either.
Sorry for the double post.
Although there are a few differences, I have to be a bit unoriginal and say it was a bit similar to FancyPants' version. I mean they both have the same order of events: Stormtroopers doing their job, one gets killed by.....I can't remember his name 
. Stormtroopers start shooting at the guy, he reflects them and kills them, then a sith/jedi comes and duels him.
That aside, the effect were pretty good, except for when he jumped into the air to get the lightsaber back. I think it would have looked a heck of a lot better if it was actually masked. Anyway, nice job on the animation.

OK, if you think "my" video is similar, then think again!
