    Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Just Desserts Now Showing

    Earlier today, Tommy Williamson of BrickNerd fame, published a sequel to last year’s Batman vs Superman stop-motion film, Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Just Desserts. The film features a wider cast of characters and shows the immediate aftermath of the event from the BvsS. It is as every bit as entertaining as the first installment.

    [SDCC] Nathan Sawaya’s The Art of the Brick: DC Comics Exhibition and Panel

    This year at Comic Con, you can join LEGO artist Nathan Sawaya, DC Comics artist and DC Entertainment co-publisher Jim Lee, Brandon Griffith of Comic Bricks, and Tommy Williamson of Bricknerd as they officially kick off The Art of the Brick: DC Comics global exhibition. They will be hosting a panel unveiling brand new LEGO sculptures based on DC Comics. In addition to the unveiling, Jim Lee will draw live a new Batmobile concept which will then be brick built and unveiled later during the exhibition. The wording is confusing but I’m pretty sure when they say “later during the exhibition” they mean at some other date and place during the exhibition’s travels and not later during the panel since the panel is only an hour long. Giveaways are promised to those in attendance so line up early. The panel will be held on Thursday July 9th from 6pm to 7pm in Room 25ABC.

    Batman vs Superman By BrickNerd Beats WB To The Punchline

    Batman v Superman may end up being the court case of the century, but I’m not looking forward to a DC universe with Man of Steel as the foundation. I am however, looking forward to the LEGO Batman Movie and I know I’m not alone in that respect. Admittedly, I’ve never been a fan of brick films and while some would think the stop motion look of The LEGO Movie would change that, the opposite happened as it really raised the bar. One young filmmaker named Tommy Williamson has taken up the challenge with his version of Batman vs Superman that would fit in well with the humor and tone of The LEGO Movie. He even managed to get a promotional poster by the notoriously talented and busy Paul Lee.

    Tommy Williamson… sounds familiar. Wasn’t he the kid in The Shawshank Redemption? Either way, you can help support this up and coming BrickNerd by watching his video, visiting his website and YouTube channel. Good luck kid. Don’t get cocky!
