LEGO – words are still powerful

27 Feb

Tweet I got all excited when I saw this come up for a million reasons, but most of all the text-heavy element to the assets. Words just aren’t sexy anymore, not like they used to be in any case. This is a travesty of the modern day obsession with rich media because words are the [...]

Basic premise, an image of the sandal and a cartoon short showing something unexpected happening during a well known [...]
