I'm actually one of the best chess players in my group, but I had to make it a 3 minute game. To have one that short, you have to have one dumb person. :)
Thanks for your comment. I know it isnt professional or anything like that, I wanted to make a decently long video without it being quite as choppy as 99% of the lego videos up on Utube. I think its 1500 pictures, and I didn't want to spend any more time on it (not to mention animation). Its also the 2nd one Ive made so I had inexperience. And yea I winged it. I love chess. I find that all my inspiration is pretty spontaneous. It would be boring without the stuff I thought of on the fly. Thanks!
@deathpiggy25 Yup. (I said so on the description) Some guy made an orchestral version of it, which is pretty cool, then he took it off CZcams . But I got the mp3 first!
brilliant idea, very creatively handled. My only regret is that the low frame rate and constant camera movement makes it a bit painful to watch, but still a worthy effort. Did you plan out the entire actual chess game moves before filming, or did you just wing it?
This is the time when I was young...
Thanks for the recommendations.
Chess is always more fun when you think of it as a battle then as a game. -WideMouth's words of wisdom.
Oh damn, the memories, thank you for this.
Very accurate of how pieces move and are actually not some blubbering nonsense. LOVEIT!
1:48 lol the knight kicks the tower instead of cutting it in two
1:48
Well, it certainly is much better animation than most LEGO animation you see on YT. Nice Job.
This is great!
great song choice :)
Great movie haha!
You must have been patient. I LOVE the fact that you named them all haha! :D
That was glorious. I laughed so hard at the credit
The pawn getting knocked over was a funny little touch!
One of the best brickfilms!! Fabulous.
this is one of the coolest gd things i've ever seen. totally badass.
I remember this like 8 years abo
Love the credits!
The king is the most epic looking and strongeset. But can only move one space
i think an illegal move occurs at 2:06. RxR, KxR, but king doesn't land on the rook's square - it lands on the 4th file instead of the 5th.
Amazing, earned a sub.
I hope you are doing well now, the video was great
The song is Rossini's William Tell Overture. The credits is a orchestrated version of Pork & Beans, by Weezer.
Thanks for the comment!
Not the horned Helmets 😭
thats legit and epic, no words beat that! :-)
The song is the William tell overture
king went to the wrong place after killing the tower

Good, but you should have filmed from the "roof" its really hard to see what the hell is going on :P
Were there 3 knights for one side? :O
Someone please tell me the name of this song. And Please don't say Darude- Sandstorm. Thank you!
The William Tell Overture is the main song, and an instrumental of Pork and Beans by Weezer is the credits song.
