The Bionicle Lecture - Part 1 (backer-exclusive preview)
🕑 Added 2024-02-06 22:01:11 +0000 UTCHello, gathered friends. I have been working like a dog on this Bionicle lecture video for many months now. I had expected it to be done sooner, but it turned out to be a much bigger subject than I at first thought. I expect the full video to be at least 10 hours long, probably more. I don't know exactly when the full lecture will be finished, but I would say I am more than half, maybe two thirds done working on it, give or take.
Since I have done so much work on this video and yet it still isn't ready to publish, I thought I could share parts of what I do have finished with my Patrons. This is Part 1, covering the first quarter or so of the storyline of Bionicle. I intend to follow this up with more parts as I complete them, before finally posting the full lecture publicly on YouTube.
Feedback is appreciated, if there are any errors or mistakes, either in editing or in my information, feel free to tell me, since I can still edit them before the final video is done.
I said I wouldn't do another Q&A podcast until the video was finished, but that was before I planned to start releasing these early videos to you all; so, I may do another Q&A podcast soon, if there's interest. Feel free to leave a question down below if you'd like.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy. Stay tuned for Part 2 soon.
Thanks,
-Ben <3

I didn't care about Bionicle at all and after watching, I still don't really care, but I am entertained and comforted by your commentary Ben. I look forward to the full release.

Calling the twist the "BIG Story Engine" is hilarious in hindsight.

Alright cool, let's do this. 21:01 The volcano is not Mangaia, Mangaia is the lair of the Makuta BENEATH the Mangai Volcano. 36:50 You have Kopaka's Kanohi listed as the "Kakama" in editing, though you correctly identify it as the Akaku. 1:17:00 Pewku's female. Great video. Extremely thorough. Really captures the chaotic wall of names and concepts that a fan of BIONICLE would have to slog through to comprehend a crumb of lore.
