New Lego ads are pop culture riddles…Can you get them all? [10 pictures]
In another installment of Lego’s minimalist ads, we’re given a picture of bricks and a category — movie, book, song, etc. — and then we get to guess the answer. See if you can figure them out.
(I was going to put the answers at the bottom of the post, but then I decided I’d leave the solutions up to you.)
(via Lego, My Modern Met)
* * * * *
1. Three Little Pigs
2.
3. Snow White
4.
5. Gulliver’s Travels
6.
7. The Tortoise and the Hare
8. Moby Dick
9. Um… Rolling Stones?
10. Stairway to Heaven
I have never seen Reservoir Dogs, so I didn’t get the reference. Number 7 makes more sense as the Tortoise and the Hare, but I initially saw Wizard of Oz. I saw the plain beige character going over the rainbow (although not colored) toward the emerald green character. Far stretch, I know.
The seven blocks are the seven robbers. The clue is the colours each man in R dogs (I can’t spell the first word) is given a coloured name. Ie Mr blue, Mr pink Mr white. They don’t know each other when they attempt the diamond robbery and it means if they get caught they still don’t know names of who they worked with. Without going into to much detail that’s the reason for the seven bricks :)
need help with 2, 3, 4, and 6
I think 3 is Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
The first must be Three Little Pigs, the third Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, the fifth Gulliver’s Travels, the seventh is The Tortoise and the Hare, the eighth is Moby Dick, and he last one is Stairway to Heaven. I need help with the others – I almost never see movies and am not big into music either! Someone help!
I think 4 is Braveheart.
I can’t get 2 (Star Wars?), 6,7 & 9.
Haha! Star Wars is the first thing I thought too. Apparently it’s Four Weddings and a Funeral, though.
What about the Rolling Stones?
O soory, that’s #9
Last one: Stairway to Heaven?
#2 is 4 weddings and a funeral
Nice!
That’s awesome! Not sure I would have ever gotten that one.
6 is Reservoir Dogs
9 is the Rolling Stones! And 7 is the Tortoise and the Hare maybe?
1. 3 little pigs, 5. gulliver’s travels, 7. tortoise and the hare, 8. moby dick
#5 is Gulliver’s Travels, and #7 is Moby Dick.
#5 Gullivers travels, #8 Moby dick?
(others, not necessarily in this order…) Three Little Pigs, Gulliver’s Travels, Moby Dick (?), Rolling Stones.
1. Three little pigs 2. Four Weddings and a Funeral 3. Snow White 4. ? 5. Gullivers Travels 6. Reservoir Dogs 7. The Tortoise and the Hare 8. Moby Dick 9. Rolling Stones 10. Stairway to Heaven
What is #1??
Three Little Pigs :)
This is what i figured so far:
1. 3 little pigs
2. ??
3. Snow White and the 7 Dwarves
4. Braveheart
5. Gulliver’s Travels
6. Reservoir Dogs
7. Tortoise and the Hare
8. Moby Dick
9. Rolling Stones
10. Stairway to Heaven
2 is Four Weddings and a Funeral
#9= The Beatles
When I saw 9 I thought of The Cure.
The Rolling Stones had more than four members. I’d think beatles before stones. Or perhaps the Ramones since they’re in black.
It the gray colour and the four are different angles of turns (right side up, on the left, upside down, on the right) don’t think the numbers have anything to do with the number of members in the band :)
I thought Beatles, too. The Abbey Road album cover.
#9 has to be Rolling Stones because the block is rolling over (like a rolling stone). The number doesn’t matter in this one.
I think #4 is Star Wars Episode 2, Attack of the Clones? And I was thinking #9 was YMCA-like – so The Village People, but rolling gray stones makes more sense.
It’s just a bunch of lego.
And you have not the imagination of a child.
For this exercise we need the imagination of a child and the cultural expertise of a 30-40 year old.
So we need Webster?
Are you sure #6 isn’t Clue? Got the rest except tortoise and the hair… Still not sure that’s right, but I’ll go with the crowd on that one.
I changed my mind… If it were Clue you’d have to have a black one for Mr. Boddy
If it were Clue the colors would be different. There would have to be green, purple, yellow, red, white, and blue.
I’m really not sure about #4: Do you really think it’s Braveheart? It reminds me of Star Wars and of I, Robot…
i thought I Robot too
#4: “300″
#2 Four Weddings and a Funeral
