  • For the 100th year anniversary of WWI, I give you The Battle of the Somme!
    Please remember to rate, comment, and subscribe!
    The Battle of the Somme, also known as the Somme Offensive, was a battle fought during the First World War fought by the armies of the British and French empires against the German Empire. Because of poor planning and ineffective artillery strikes, The Battle of the Somme resulted in 1,000,000 casualties on both sides, making it one of humanities bloodiest battles.
    This film is dedicated to all of the young men, whatever their nationality, who died in the First World War.
    See if you can find the Lightsaber ;)

    Hey guys! I need help deciding what theme my next animation will be. Here is a link to a poll to participate in the decision: www.strawpoll.me/13022172
    I will not necessarily pick the most voted one but I will take it into account! Thanks!

    This is one of the greatest films I've ever seen. I tried doing a WW1 Brickfilm but it didn't work out. I decided to make a ww2 one. This makes me want to try again. I especially loved the contribution to those who lost there lives at the end.

    This is a really good Lego animation. With a little practice, almost anyone can make these little plastic guys look like they can really move, but you've stepped up at included all of the little stuff that really makes this a great story. Details like splashing water in that first shot, and dirt falling down on the soldiers' heads after an artillery explosion, and the guys hanging on to their helmets when the explosions occur. Really good stuff. Keep it up.

    This is absolutely brilliant! Only today I was trying to show my sons the statue of a Private from my home town who won the VC at Mont St. Quentin in 1918. I was wondering how to get them to take much interest in history, and you have just handed me a most valuable tool in showing them history in a way that will grab their attention, and teach at the same time. Thank-you for your awesome work!

    Great job! And as I commented on a similar video of the Gallipoli campaign, also very respectful - thanks. My Great Uncle was killed during the second Battle of Somme, at Pozieres. He suffered shrapnel wounds (mortar shell most likely), made it to the field hospital, but died shortly after. He at least has a known grave, my other Great Uncle lies in Flanders Field, somewhere. Again good job on this.

      +Kyle “Elvenkin” Dayton It wasn't like WW2 where soldiers like the SS or the Einsatzgruppen were actually trained to be merciless and ruthless. WW2 tainted the impression of the german army but in WW1 they were pretty honourable in most cases and the majority of the things that could be considered atrocities were orders made by higher officers - who never actually had to carry out the orders themselves.
      A lot of germans who were just good people in an exceedingly bad situation died in WW1.

    • @legoanimation20
      @legoanimation20  8 лет назад +4

      Thats the idea, I feel that too many films have portrayed the germans wrongly, not all of them, a lot of them did pretty atrocious things, but a good chunk of them were good people.

    • @GraemePryce1978
      @GraemePryce1978 8 лет назад

      legoanimation20 Well, everybody loves a villain don't they? The Germans kind of brought it on themselves with their sinister insignias and uniforms and everything in WW2 and they did look pretty fearsome in WW1 by 1918 as well but they 95% of them were still just people following orders or people fearing for their own lives and those of their families too.

    • @legoanimation20
      @legoanimation20  7 лет назад +1

      I tried to show that neither side were the bad guys in this video, as shown by the German gunner almost refusing to keep mowing down the British soldiers. Each soldier had their duties (whether they were ethical or not). I am sorry I was not explicit enough to show that in this film.
