We will contact the winners by email by December 1 (hopefully sooner than that), and will make a public announcement once we have everything finalized.

From the rules: “The name cannot contain the word LEGO, “brickfilms”, or any other registered trademark.”

“Animaniacs”, being the name of a popular television program, has been a registered trademark of Warner Bros. for about 20 years. Hence, it will not be the name of our blog.

Animaniacs would be an awesome name! I second it! Seems like a great name for this kinda site if you guys would be able to name it that.

Here is what I got…

Brick Take One

Bricks, Flicks and Motion Pics.

Brick Production

That’s all I could think of…

By: legoscot

legoscot — Mon, 01 Oct 2012 15:35:02 +0000

My suggestion for a blog name is:
BricksALIVE

It’s simple, short, and easy to remember, and evokes the spirit of animation. After all half the reason most people animate this medium is to bring them to life.

One more Idea!
Under Construction Films

By: David Pickett

David Pickett — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 02:35:36 +0000

We don’t have a specific date set for the announcement. It will probably be some time in November, but might push into December. The name of the site is not a trivial matter, so we want to ensure that it’s a great one.

By: HiddenLego

HiddenLego — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 00:46:29 +0000

More Ideas!

1) We will choose the minifig parts based on a photo of the winner.
2) Sorry, we won’t do any prize substitutions.

By: ENDfilms

ENDfilms — Sun, 23 Sep 2012 02:42:12 +0000

Two questions. #1: If you win can the winner pick what parts are used for the minifig.
#2: If you get second can you choose the pinchbot.

David Pagano — Tue, 11 Sep 2012 23:25:26 +0000

Thanks for the comments, everyone! There are some cool entries so far.

One thing to keep in mind is that the ideal name should evoke equal parts “LEGO” and “film/animation” — not one or the other — which I know makes things a little trickier.

Keep the ideas coming!
