Epic Matrix Bullet-Dodging Scene, Now in LEGO!

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Wachowski brothers epic effort, The Matrix, Trevor Boyd and Steve Ilett re-created the famous bullet-dodging scene using the medium of LEGO. That’s pure win in itself, but made even better by the fact that the two gents spent 440 hours to make their stop-frame animation frame-accurate.

By “frame accurate” we mean that we took all of the video frames from that part of the movie (that’s nearly 900 frames for just 44 seconds of footage) and reproduced them all in Lego.

Have a look at the clip below.

And hit the jump to see a side-by-side comparison of the original and the LEGO version.
