As we near peak Kardashian (opens in new tab), peak sommelier (opens in new tab), and peak "peak," it's nice to know there's one thing we'll probably never get tired of: when awesome people replace humans with LEGOs (opens in new tab).

Jimmy Kimmel commissioned a Grand Budapest Hotel scene from Morgan Spence, a 15-year-old Scottish filmmaker who meticulously constructs toy-brick reenactments of iconic movies, such as Breakfast at Tiffany's, E.T., and Wayne's World.

Watch both the original and the funner version below, and continue feeling jealous that Morgan's probably going to have the coolest job ever (opens in new tab) someday.
