It takes truly creative minds to conjure up a world where these fantastic characters co-exist in the same space and interact with one another. Even real personalities are in the movie, like Shaquille O’Neil and William Shakespeare.

It’s the only place where C3PO can exist in the same space as Batman, Gandalf and Dumbledore (incidentally, both white bearded wisemen are pissed off at being mistaken for one another). The LEGO Movie brings together something that’s never done before, and that’s featuring iconic characters from pop-culture that we’re familiar with. In The LEGO Batman Movie, the whole premise of Batman wanting to work alone is mocked to the extremes, they even plant in an orphan kid to hilariously illustrate the point. In The LEGO Movie, Emmett ( Chris Pratt) is the cliché of an average man, and his character plays out our inner fears and worries in an exaggerated way yet remaining fairly relatable.

It clearly doesn’t take itself seriously and does so comically and in ways that audiences can connect with.

Part of why we love both The LEGO Movie and The LEGO Batman Movie is how the characters in the movies mock themselves and those around them. He speaks with a deliberate low, raspy drawl (Hello Christian Bale) when in the Bat Suit, and his yearning for loneliness is amplified and ridiculed (remember how he was shunned by all the other DC superheroes at their epic party?) With LEGO’s third effort, The LEGO NINJAGO Movie starring a stellar voice-over cast, hitting the big screens soon, let’s look at just what makes LEGO movies so funny. Not only did it have all the qualities of the first movie, the edge of The LEGO Batman Movie lies in how our protagonist, Batman ( Will Arnett), pokes fun at the Batman character from its live action counterpart. Applying the same formula, this sophomore effort is just as enjoyable, if not more. It had us singing along to “Everything is Awesome”, featured all the iconic characters from our favourite movies and contains numerous pop-culture references.īut was it a one hit wonder? The question was answered in LEGO’s follow-up movie, The LEGO Batman Movie. Best of all, it appeals to both adults and kids. It was refreshing, relevant and irreverent. When The LEGO Movie exploded onto the big screen in 2014, it broke all boundaries and conformity.
