Lego Giant Monkey Head From Monkey Island Created.



PuCCi0 over on Flickr has produced this impressive Lego monkey head from Lucasart's Monkey Island.

The creator writes:

The Giantic Monkey Head is a notable landmark of Monkey Island. It has been featured in every game where the surface of Monkey Island is visited, each time serving a slightly different purpose. In the first game it leads to a hellish catacomb of flesh . Guybrush must make his way through these caves in order to reach LeChuck's ghost pirate ship.

The monkey head is surrounded by a fence that can be crossed only by pulling the nose of the totem pole, but for those not familiar with the game, the fence closes the door as soon as you release the nose. To solve the problem Guybrush Threepwood was able to befriend Jojo (a little monkey that lived on the island), luring him whit bananas, and he Showed Jojo how to hold down the lever which opened the gate in the fence surrounding the head and allowing access.

I've always wondered if Paul Freeman unintentionally consumed a fly in this scene in  Raiders of the Lost Ark ?  It's the scene where Indiana Jones shouts down to Bellosh...I mean Belloq and threatens to blow up the ark.  Did a fly go in his mouth? I remember watching this scene back in the early eighties and my ten year old mind thought he definitely had a snack while filming.  I recall talking about 'flygate' in my school playground at the time and the general consensus with my friends was that Freeman definitely had a sneaky snack. Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com  and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th

Pinewood Studios To Expand To The Usa

BBC News have reported that Pinewood Studios are to expand to the USA.  This is great news for the famous studio that is rich in movie history. UK film studio Pinewood Shepperton has announced plans to build its first sound stages in the United States. The Pinewood Atlanta complex will be built on 288 acres of land south of Atlanta, Georgia, as a joint venture with a US investment company. Georgia has been among the US states drawing film-making away from Hollywood with tax incentives in recent years. The deal is the latest sign of expansion at Pinewood, the home of the James Bond franchise. Earlier this month it announced a joint venture with a Chinese media group, potentially giving it access to the fast-growing Chinese market. Read the full article here.
