Twilight recreated with legos



Click here to see Lego recreations of Harry Potter's Quidditch showdown against Slytherin nemesis Draco Malfoy, a spot-on rendering of Edward, Bella and Jacob in the "Twilight: New Moon" poster, and a Arthur's (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) gravity-defying fight scene in "Inception." Kind of gives new meaning to the term "block-buster." 

Other films that have been the subject of Eylar's incredible Lego homages are "Die Hard," "Tron: Legacy," "American Beauty," "James Bond," "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark," "The Shining," "A Clockwork Orange," "Reservoir Dogs," "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," "Back To The Future," "Inglorious Basterds," "Raging Bull," "Silence of the Lambs," "The Addams Family," "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly," "2001: A Space Odyssey," "The Exorcist," "Psycho" and "Mission Impossible."

Once created, Eylar uses light and smoke to add an air of realism to the tableau, photographs them and then tears them down. That's right, he disassembles each and every one. As Eylar tells Pacific Coast News, "I can't afford to keep them built -- I need the pieces."
