This week we'll be playing some more LEGO Indiana Jones 2 on Wednesday, December 4th. Come by the BZPower Twitch channel starting around 7 PM Eastern as we inch ever closer to one-hundred-percent completion! There's seven achievements left, but I believe in us - see you there!

We've made it to the last leg of 2024, with the holiday season upon us and Christmas music playing nonstop. Why not take a break from the holiday rush to go enter the 2024 Member Raffle #12?

For those of us in the US, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and with it have come seemingly endless sales and deals advertised nonstop. But why spend money when you can get a LEGO set for free?

Good luck and enjoy the turkey!

Earlier this month, BZPower member TahnokTrapper kicked off a new epic. Head over to read Sightings - Dark Times, Day One as you journey from Koro to Koro to witness mysterious occurrences and portents of events to come. Once you're done reading, head over to the review topic to share your thoughts!

After a week off, we'll be playing some videogames again this coming week! Swing by the BZPower Twitch channel on Tuesday, November 26th for more LEGO Indiana Jones 2 adventures. We'll be working our way through the quick play levels as we do our best to unlock every achievement and reach 100% completion. See you starting around 7 PM Eastern!

We won't be streaming at all this week, as personal life takes priority and sometimes takes up all of our time. We'll be back next week before Thanksgiving to play some more LEGO Indiana Jones, so check back soon to see our exact schedule. I hope everyone has a great week!

We're a bit late in celebrating the twentieth anniversary of Bionicle 2: Legends of Metru Nui, but That Matoran with a Vahi was a bit closer and made some cool artwork to mark the milestone. Go take a look at Legends of Metru Nui at 20: Lhikan's Decision for an idea of what Toa Lhikan was up to before the film began. Do you agree with his notes about the different Matoran? Let us know in the Talkback!

We will be back to streaming LEGO Indiana Jones 2 tomorrow, November 11th, over on the BZPower Twitch channel! After a fun foray into LEGO Brawls, we're rejoining our favorite archaeologist to collect artifacts and achievements to reach 100% completion. We'll see you around 7 PM Eastern!

As reported by Deadline this past week, Universal Pictures has announced three live action movies about LEGO bricks are currently being made. While additional details are scarce right now, we do know the directors and writers:

• Directed by Jake Kasdan and written by Andrew Mogel and Jarrad Paul, based on an original idea and draft by Matt Mider and Kevin Burrows
• Directed by Patty Jenkins and written by Geoff Johns
• Directed and written by Joe Cornish, rewriting from a draft by Heather Anne Campbell, which was off a treatment by Simon Rich

The article clearly states, 'live action,' which I'm very curious to learn more about, since we've yet to see any LEGO films that weren't animated.

Changing the calendar of course means it's time for a new giveaway here on BZPower! Head on over and enter the 2024 Member Raffle #11 for your shot at 75537 Darth Maul from the Star Wars buildable figure collection. Good luck to all who join in!
