You have hands down the BEST filmography of any lego channel I have seen and especially with the build highlights. Please continue this in future videos. It is super unique and gives the viewer added value as we can see finer details rather than a simple overhead shot like most of the bigger channels do.
I love your enthusiasm! And at 9:40: YES Sátántangó!!!! As a Hungarian it was the icing on the cake. Thank you for bringing back the memories. I saw it in an unheated university cinema on a cold winter from 11:pm until next morning. The experience really matched the athmosphere of the film ;)
Boy, I never thought I'd see someone incorporate Bela Tarr into a Lego set... I saw Satantango at MoMA 10+ years ago. One of the great movie going experiences ever. I even got to meet him in NYC when he was promoting Turin Horse.
This was the second set I bought in 2015 when I came out of my dark age. For me I still think it's one of the best Modular sets after the Parisian Restaurant. It's shame about the mould. It may have been stored in a humid environment. Also nice production on your video.😀👍
I like your structured, mathematical layout approach to the city. I am limited on space for a city build, so I used your idea of the stacked city and started with building 8 studs wide Mocs. Looking forward to see more from you, all the best from Germany.
Don't sell short older sets, I buy them all the time. The mold you found on the paper items is the first I've heard of that--just how they were being stored and moisture must have collected. As for brick fading, many people think that only happens when Lego exposed to sunlight, but I've had many 10 y/o plus sets, that were sealed, with faded bricks. There are a number of videos you can find on TH-cam showing how to bring life back to faded bricks.
This review is amazingly well done. The production is really really good. Thank you for all the time and effort put in to making this video and informing me on my decision to purchase this set. Crossing my fingers it is mold free ;)
This came out during my dark age but I will still be getting this sooner than later to go with my Downtown Diner and Jazz Club. Going to the theatre will always be one of my favourite pastimes.
Nice video! I just got this one new in box myself via eBay. Thank goodness no mold!! It's the only retired set I'm willing to pay extra for but it looks so neat with a light kit. Had to have it. Agree the old style lego faces are cute but prefer the more expressive new faces so will be swapping them out. Thanks for the review. Can't wait to build it.
Bought this set right before it retired and been in storage ever since but this year I might built it and perhaps make my first most Lego building video or perhaps a time lapse (too many ideas). Your content is inspiring, keep it up!
First time seeing you’re Chanel as a big sw Lego fan considering turning to Modular’s and city sets to make my own in future, I really enjoyed your videos about the palace. Love it so much hope they make a new one in the future!!! You did a great job fantastic videos definitely deserve the follow :) just wondering is buying sets on bricking safe ?
Thank you! BrickLink has been safe for us so far, but we are often worried for big purchases like this one -- we always check seller reviews carefully, but it can still be risky, unfortunately :/
Never heard of LEGO instructions getting mould on them before, and there are sets going back 50+ years... I wonder if that box was somehow defective or stored somewhere damp? Or did LEGO use cheaper paper for a time? Very strange, I wonder if it's too late to order replacements from LEGO.
Great job. Video was well done also. I love the Palace Cinema, but yes The Diner is better. Two of my favourite Lego buildings are not considered modulars, The Old Fishing Shack and the Medieval Blacksmith Shop. Both are beautiful buildings, excellent build techniques and just a lot of fun to build and display. I’ll be checking back again to see what you are up to. One question…..why did you not include Market Street in the list of modulars? It is my least favourite modular and th only one I don’t have, but I was just curious. Merry Christmas 🇨🇦🎄👍
Thanks so much! Great point about the not-modular modulars - we've been saving our Medieval Blacksmith set for a while, and now we're excited to build it soon. Sadly haven't gotten our hands on the Old Fishing Shack yet. Re: Market Street - we know LEGO officially considers it a modular, but it seemed different enough (not marketed as Creator, much lower piece count/price point) that it seems unfair to compare it to the others. Plus that's one fewer for us to be missing :D
@@eggybricks ……I agree Market Street never seemed up to par with the rest of the Modular’s. I’ll enjoy watching you do the Blacksmiths Shop. If you can get The Old Fishing Shack for a decent price, buy it. You won’t regret it, it’s awesome.
I built this this week ^^ not 100% done as I'm having trouble to find 6 trans-clear pieces in the proper color and not this yellowish material Lego uses now (sigh, I wish they took a step back or tried something different) I didn't wanna represent and event, just a regular day, so I ignored the car, lights and "fences".. and even the figs as I already have too many, plus I went with 1x4 dark tan bricks instead of those expensive 1x8s so there was really no point on getting every extra thing xD It's my favorite modular by far, a shame it's the only one with stickers.. but luckily I was able to buy some custom prints (on original pieces) from steindrucker a few years ago (it doesn't look like they sell them anymore though), they also included custom window "glass" for the 6 arch windows but custom print and stickers is as far from official I feel comfortable with so I didn't use them 😂
I got the palace cinema back in 2020 as one of the 3 modulars I got for my birthday and Christmas that year. I also got the Diner and Assembly square as well since 2020 marked 10 years since I got my first lego set. Right now my palace cinema is right on my beach next to the perisan restaurant then my in progress Dailey bugle and finally my boutique hotel to finish my 1 back row of buildings that I am happy with. Hope to finish the bugle by next week if all goes well.
I just got this set recently, and imo, the three black bricks that Lego used to hold the 3 wall lights are ugly. Like some other builders, I’m going to replace them with the same colour as the rest of the main floor walls. I’m pretty sure I need to get dark tan for that part, but I want to make sure before I order them. Can anyone confirm that I need to get dark tan? Thanks in advance.
This was one of the first sets I bought as an adult and I loved building it. So much so that I've bought every modular building from the Pet Shop onwards! Really enjoying your channel. You can see stop motion of Assembly Square and Brick Bank on my channel if you're interested ;)
Printed these days? Just got the jurassic park T-rex enclosure set recently and it was stickers only. I hate how Lego has gotten cheap over timewhile the sets are getting more and more expensive. Many other brands have better quality today. I bought some I like. Anyway, love your little city, it's amazing!!!! And you two are cool.
Mould? Wow never heard of that before. It’s a cool modular. If you ever want to mod it smaller, there are some cool instructions to make it more similar to a Ninjago city style. I’ll share the link in case interested.
Hah yea us either. Is it the one by cjtonic on rebrickable? It's really cool. His ninjago downtown diner also looks amazing. Thanks for the great suggestion! Definitely hope to be able to build those one day.
Palace Cinema is one of the weaker modulars in my opinion. Very little SNOT construction, mostly regular brick wall construction with low fidelity. The roof is definitely the more interesting part of the build but it doesn't hold up well when viewed from the back. Regardless, I have fond memories of it. It was my first modular and big adult targeted set, it felt HUGE compared to my creator 3 in 1 houses at the time. My favourite modular will always be the parisian restaurant though.

Thanks so much for all the kind words!!
i think you meant cinematography… a filmography is a body of work by a filmmaker/actor/producer/etc., similar to a discography for a singer/artist.
I love your enthusiasm! And at 9:40: YES Sátántangó!!!! As a Hungarian it was the icing on the cake. Thank you for bringing back the memories. I saw it in an unheated university cinema on a cold winter from 11:pm until next morning. The experience really matched the athmosphere of the film ;)
Wow, sounds like the perfect viewing experience. Thanks so much, and thanks for loving cinema!
A frame from satantango? Wow that's something i've never expected from a lego-based Channel! Kudos for that
Boy, I never thought I'd see someone incorporate Bela Tarr into a Lego set... I saw Satantango at MoMA 10+ years ago. One of the great movie going experiences ever. I even got to meet him in NYC when he was promoting Turin Horse.
Wow, can't believe you got to meet Béla Tarr!! Thanks for being the first person to notice this. We really have to watch Turin Horse.
Always fun to get a set you’ve always wanted!

I love that Modular I wish I had it
Love your videos ❤ My favorite modular is the Parisian restaurant, every floor from bottom to top, front to back is all good!
Ahh, great choice. Thanks for sharing!
This came out during my dark age but I will still be getting this sooner than later to go with my Downtown Diner and Jazz Club. Going to the theatre will always be one of my favourite pastimes.
parisian restaurant is still my all time favorite
I only got into Lego within the last year so I’ve missed out on most of the modulars😔 hoping I can get my hands on this set one day

Omg love ur content so well produced
Thank you!
I really like your channel, keep up the good work!!
Thanks so much!!
love the way you showed the build coming together! and oh no at the mould 😭
Thanks!! 😭 indeed

Great review👍🏻, I just picked this up sealed from our local Bricks and Minifigs store

The Palace Cinema is the oldest modular that I have. I just can't decide on a favorite modular. I have a few favorites, all for different reasons.

Very cool, sounds like a fun beach city. Happy bugle-ing!!
Where can I get the bridge?is that Lego product?what code number? Thank a lot
It's custom, sorry!

Of the sets I own I like the police station most due to its story. But would like to have the hotel or parisian restaurant 😂
