>>7496030>Thompson's favorite BIONICLE villain was Roodaka; his favorite BIONICLE hero was Matau.>Bob hated the Exo-Toa>Bob has probably had more of an impact on (Mask of Light) than any other person, and a good portion of the actual script was his brainchild.>Founded a production company literally called Good Story ProductionsNow I know he hasn't blogged about his time working on Bionicle like some of the others, but exactly which parts of the Bionicle story do we know Bob Thompson was primarily responsible for? Were his ideas actually any good?
>Along with a number of other concepts, "BoneHeads of Voodoo Island" was brainstormed by Lego employees Bob Thompson and Martin Riber Andersen, and Art Director of Advance (a creative advertising agency) Christian Faber, from a brief by Erik Kramer and sent to outside writers.As far as I can tell it seems the impetus to give Bionicle actual depth came from Swinnerton and Templar.
>The story for Bionicle's first run... was told on a multimedia platform developed by a team of Lego employees led by Bob Thompson, who decided which piece of media got which part of the narrative.And we all know what a nice and organized multimedia platform it turned out to be.
Bob's IMDB trivia page says he created Kapura, although given how the PC game and story bible treated his eccentricities as a puchline it's safe to say everything good about Kapura came from Templar.
