Why, yes, I would certainly be happy receive your sternly-worded missive regarding the proper plural form of the word "Lego." You can reach me at norman@tested.com.

In the meantime, enjoy this recreation of the The Dark Knight Rises trailer made entirely of Legoessss.

EDIT: Why the hell is this filed up Legolas Greenleaf? Oh, yeah, I just got it.

"Aaaactually... your entire premise is wrong as there is no plural to lego, just as there is no plural to air or water. One brick of lego. Many lego bricks"

Is that missive good enough? Now I'm going to watch that lego documentary.. not even kidding that was what I was about to do when I saw this =)

From the LEGO Company Profile:

Using the LEGO brand name
Please help us to protect our brand name:
• The LEGO brand name should always be written in capital letters
• LEGO must never be used as a generic term or in the plural or as a possessive pronoun, e.g. “LEGO’s”.
• When the LEGO brand name is used as part of a noun, it must never appear on its own. It should always be accompanied by a noun. For example, LEGO set, LEGO products, LEGO Group, LEGO play materials, LEGO bricks, LEGO universe, etc.

I'm sorry.

That was great though, stop-motion using LEGO bricks is consistently one of my favourite things.

Lego is the plural. Unless you also say 'sheeps'.

I always assumed Lego was already plural? Maybe it's different in the US?

Either way, nice trailer!

In the UK, the plural of LEGO is LEGO, not LEGOs.

But I digress, this trailer was actually a pretty good re-enactment of the actual one, I'd like to see more movie trailers remade with LEGO.

Lego's right? That's the correct answer?

The plural of Lego is whatever you want. Similarly, there's no need for capslock. Sometimes brand names become generic. It happens.
