Fans eagerly awaiting the arrival of Fifty Shades of Grey in theaters (only 8 more sleeps!) will enjoy the hilarious LEGO adaption titled 'Fifty Shades of Bricks.'
Fifty Shades of Bricks recreates the original trailer perfectly, but they did an especially good job with Christian Grey. Somehow, all of the eccentric young billionaire's charisma has been replicated in LEGO form, right down to his abs and dimples.
The controversial book-turned-film has been plagued with rumors since shooting wrapped, leading many to wonder if it will live up to the hype or expectations. We can only hope that, should the movie fail, a full-length LEGO version will be released, along with a Fifty Shades-themed LEGO set for adult play!
