OK, there’s been a lot of
cr*p and slightly less cr*p movies I’ve been watching this year, let’s take a
look at something good, the Lego Movie.
I know what you’re thinking. Or at least you were before this movie came out. That sounds like a complete corporate shill, only existing to sell toys and
you’d be right but this one actually has effort put into it, and they
incorporate a large number of lego characters from throughout the years, for
mostly cameo roles and of course as long as Warner Bros owns the rights to them,
plus a number of a made up characters for this movie.
Produced on a $60m budget,
this movie hit the right notes with people, earning $460m at the box office,
96% on rotten tomatoes and 83% on metacritic, not to mention people were miffed when this wasn't nominated for an oscar. and there’s a sequel and 3
different spinoff movies coming out over the next few years, one of which
already has a trailer dropped. What’s made it so successful? Let’s find out.
