# LEGO Zombie Gamer Tributes This LEGO Last of Us Video is Zombie-Crushing Fun By Angela Rajic | Published 2013-12-19 | Updated 2014-01-16 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-last-of-us References: [creativebloq](http://www.creativebloq.com/3d/action-adventure-masterpiece-last-us-lego-121310187) & [youtube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ab8ds7NmigE) The Last of Us is one of the biggest hit video games of 2013, and [YouTuber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hololive) Brian Aderson commemorates the game with this awesome [LEGO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ideas-jaws-set) Last of us mock trailer. The game, in which the player fights off people infected with a zombie-like fungus, is parodied brilliantly here with [CGI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monday-platform) LEGO block figures in the place of the original game characters. Viewers watch as the LEGO hero shoots, bludgeons and otherwise defeats moaning zombies with fungus growing on their faces in a bid to reach a weapons cache to reload on ammo. The video copies the game right down to finding lives and collecting coins and points from killing enemies. This LEGO Last of Us video is a fun tribute to an incredibly popular game. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Viral](https://www.trendhunter.com/viral) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **LEGO Gaming Parodies:** Creating LEGO mock trailers for popular video games provides a fun and nostalgic way for fans to engage with their favorite games. - **CGI LEGO Animation:** Utilizing CGI LEGO block figures in videos allows for creative storytelling and unique visual experiences. - **Video Game Tributes:** Producing fan-made tribute videos for popular video games generates a sense of community and appreciation among gamers. ### Where This Applies - **Gaming:** The gaming industry can capitalize on the trend of LEGO gaming parodies by partnering with LEGO to create official collaborations and merchandise. - **Animation:** The animation industry has an opportunity to explore the use of CGI LEGO animation in film and television, creating new and exciting visual styles. - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can tap into the trend of video game tributes by creating special events or shows that celebrate and showcase fan-made content. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Horror Film-Inspired Brick Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ideas-jaws-set.md) - [Video Game-Inspired LEGO Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sunscreen-mist.md) - [Game-Inspired Puzzle Dioramas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brickrealm101.md) - [Building Block Gaming Consoles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-ps-one.md) - [Brick Toy Revivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-boy-set.md) - [Toy Brick Reimagined Trailers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wicked-movie.md) - [Offline Game-Inspired Brick Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brick-dangerous.md) - [Witty Toy-Brand Horror Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horror-poster.md) - [Game-Inspired Playable Puzzle Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-solid.md)
