This story is now canon in my LEGO Pirates imaginary. I got the new Eldorado set not long ago and when I got to the hidden letter while building it this was everything I could think about. Thanks so much for such an amazing video!
Thanks a lot for your feedback @enelabe. I am super happy that you liked the movie and that I could contribute to your personal canon of LEGO Pirates ☺
That was so cool! I've seen full length movies with fewer twists and turns. Great soundtrack and lots of wonderful details like the bullet splashes. Loved the "for the king" and "for me" piles of gold. The use of the two different monkeys early on was fun. Wonderful work!
@flitterbat, thanks a lot for your comment! ☺️ I am super happy that you liked all these details. The money piles are a small reference to the comic book „Asterix in Switzerland“. The governor there has similar tax paying habits as Broadside. As Broadside is french in my movie, I felt that a small reference to a classic french comic is very fitting😃.
Thanks a lot @Wowslegendsfan! I had a lot of fun building it. In the center is the Scary Pirate Island (40597). I surrounded it with a small island and added a lot of coins from the 80ies/90ies 🙂.
Great video! The music as great, I've not seen a lot of Lego pirate stop motion videos use sea shanties. I also loved the inclusion of the original Eldorado Fortress with the new version.
@swampy5222 Thanks a lot! I am very happy to hear that. The titles of two sea shanties also match to the part of the movie they are in: The first shanty is "Spanish Ladies" and I believe it fits to the Spanish part of the story. When the pirates have to free their colleague, I used "don't forget your old shipmate". Of course the lyrics do not match. But at least the titles do 🙂. I was also very happy that the new Eldorado Fortress is very faithful to the orignal. This allowed me to use them both to show that the fortress would change over time.
Thanks a lot! I liked to develop a small historical background to my story (even though not much of it is actually seen in the movie). First I needed a conflict between the Spanish and the French that happened during the fictional lifetime of my Lego characters. The Franco Dutch War started in 1672. However, Spain only was involved from 1673 onwards, which made me pick 1674 as the year of the French attack. The war ended in 1678 with a French victory. After the 9 years' war in 1697 France and her enemies were financially exhausted and signed the treaty of Rijswijk. Interesting for my scenario was that in that treaty Spain recognized French control over Saint-Domingue. Thus even though both wars largely focused on Europe, things must have happened in the colonies that fit quite well to my storyline.
Thanks a lot @cheemsamsiedad! I indeed did quite some research on the available lego lore. But I have to admit that I take extreme liberties with it: generally I took only the names of sets and characters as a given. Beyond that I treated the lego lore more as an inspiration than as canon. Both of my movies play in the same „world“ though and the dates used in them match.
@IronhookFilms Understandable. Still, it was nice to see all the small easter eggs, both about the Lego pirates lore and real history as well. Plus your animation style reminds me of classic Lego animations. So much nostalgia, can't wait to see more!
@Futuristicbleh, thanks a lot! ☺ In the first half of the movie I use the original Eldorado Fortress (6276) from 1989. In the second half of the movie I use the new one (10320) from 2023. On it's left I placed the Lagoon Lockup (6267) from 1991 and on its right a MOC that is based on the Lego Idea Book 260 from 1990. I feel that the three give a very nice ensemble.
@@Hudsnotyoursproductions Thanks a lot, I am very happy to hear that 🙂. My next video may again play in the Lego Pirates universe (Admiral Woodhouse may eventually make his appearance 😁). But it will take quite some time until then. This movie took most of my spare time in the past 7 months - making Brickfilms is very rewarding but also quite time consuming 😅.
@Andrew.The.Culture.Nerd. Yesssss!!!! I am very happy that you noticed it 😊. The reference is very subtle as I could not fit in a haystack in a meaningful way. And even though I bought an assassins creed like hood, it did not make it into the movie as I felt that having her put it on would make the scene too long. But I could not make a pirates movie without making a reference to under the black flag 🏴☠️☺️
@Jsandstuff, in 1990 Lego released the „Ideas Book 260“, which contained alternative builds for all their themes. The little fortress is from there. I did not build it 1:1 because I do not have all the parts needed. www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?B=260#T=S&O=%7B%22iconly%22:0%7D
Sure. In order of appearance: 6244 Armada Sentry (though at the time of filming I did not yet have the green doors), 6276 Eldorado Fortress, 6274 Caribbean Clipper, 10320 Eldorado Fortress, 6267 Lagoon Lock-Up, a small fortress and a sailboat inspired by the Lego Idea Book 260, the Micro Black Seas Barracuda MOC by Veyniac, 21322 Pirates of Barracuda Bay, 40597 Scary Pirate Island, and the 21325 Medieval Blacksmith. Some smaller setups I built myself in order to connect the sets etc.
The voice is Peter Baker (www.englishvoice.tv/ ). You may have heard him in other Brickfilms too. E.g. LCM Brick Show worked with him in several of his movies (one example here: ua-cam.com/video/B-vC_FdNcXo/v-deo.html). I like his work a lot and am super happy that he could do the voice over in my movie.
Vielen Dank! Und ja, die Soldatinnen sind klar ahistorisch. Aber ich habe mich daran gewöhnt. Letztendlich sind die Lego Piraten ohnehin eine sehr romantisierte version des 17./18. Jahrhunderts.
really great job! only two videos and 460 subs is crazy awesome I have a channel with almost 200 vids and your almost beating me! Good luck! Just Subscribed!
Thanks a lot @CatapultingCows! I feel deeply honored by the reaction of you and the community on my videos. A big thank you for all your views, subscriptions, likes, and comments! ☺️🙏🏻
Despite the dark times that the Lego pirates fandom has gone through we can still find light in your videos thank you
Reminded me of pirate brick film stop-motion when I was very young. Thanks for the memories
So true
This story is now canon in my LEGO Pirates imaginary. I got the new Eldorado set not long ago and when I got to the hidden letter while building it this was everything I could think about. Thanks so much for such an amazing video!
Thanks a lot for your feedback @enelabe. I am super happy that you liked the movie and that I could contribute to your personal canon of LEGO Pirates ☺
So cool to see the old and new pirate LEGO together. Nice nighttime lighting too!
This video is great🎉🎉❤
This is awesome and seems real! Its a great backstory for eldarado
@dinoonyx, thanks a lot! ☺️

@@IronhookFilms Totally got the reference when I saw it. Excellent work!
This is an absolute masterpiece, great job matey!
Nicely done! Much Detail! Love it!
Really well made, great work! The Spanish treasure set looked amazing.
Thanks a lot @Wowslegendsfan! I had a lot of fun building it. In the center is the Scary Pirate Island (40597). I surrounded it with a small island and added a lot of coins from the 80ies/90ies 🙂.
Hurray!!! You're back on UA-cam. The cartoon is just super! Excellent! As always, awesome. I wish you reach 1000 subscribers!!!🎉🎉🎉
Thanks a lot @Lego13587! I am super happy that you liked it ☺️
Common Broadside W, In all seriousness great video! This really felt like a throwback to the golden age of lego pirates brickfilms!
@RutherfordHayes-hv7qe, thanks a lot! ☺️

I like how you added the Franco Dutch war

Love the MI references with the narrator and boat salesman!

Great movie!!! 🔥🔥🔥
You deserve more subscribers!
However, you earned at least one new subscriber!
Thanks a lot @RealLordOfLego
Did you make your own ElDorado Fortress design? Love the video! Love the Lego Pirates, Spanish soldiers two
@Futuristicbleh, thanks a lot! ☺ In the first half of the movie I use the original Eldorado Fortress (6276) from 1989. In the second half of the movie I use the new one (10320) from 2023.

Nice this is my second channel what will your next video be? Again great video!
@@Hudsnotyoursproductions Thanks a lot, I am very happy to hear that 🙂. My next video may again play in the Lego Pirates universe (Admiral Woodhouse may eventually make his appearance 😁).

Yeah stop motions do take a long time I make some stop motions on both of my channels.
Is the boat salesman a reference to Monkey Island? Fantastic video by the way! Love to see lego pirates!
Thanks a lot! And yes! Good catch 😊. The salesman is at least a distant relative of Stan from Monkey Island (one of my childhood heroes 😄).
Was 8:40 an Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag reference?
@Andrew.The.Culture.Nerd. Yesssss!!!! I am very happy that you noticed it 😊. The reference is very subtle as I could not fit in a haystack in a meaningful way.

Hey during 4:40 what is the set to the right of the eldorato fortruss

Oh but thanks anyway
Оочень хороший мультик ,лего очень ценное !!!
Dern Frogs! Jk I'd still say Eldorado belongs to the Imperial Armada always and forever
🤣
Can somoene Tell me what Sets These are?
Sure. In order of appearance: 6244 Armada Sentry (though at the time of filming I did not yet have the green doors), 6276 Eldorado Fortress, 6274 Caribbean Clipper, 10320 Eldorado Fortress, 6267 Lagoon Lock-Up, a small fortress and a sailboat inspired by the Lego Idea Book 260, the Micro Black Seas Barracuda MOC by Veyniac, 21322 Pirates of Barracuda Bay, 40597 Scary Pirate Island, and the 21325 Medieval Blacksmith.

Sehr tolles video 😂.Das einzige was mich nervt sind die Frauen als Soldaten ,weil früher gab es so etwas nicht
