THE LEGO MOVIE

I liked that joke, but also thought it was dumb

"Should I be enjoying this" material!

I thought this was decent. The Scuttler was everything I hoped it would be, but The Phantom Zone being an extremely lazy version of Cloud-Cuckoo-Land was a bit disappointing. In retrospect I am actually pretty surprised that Will Arnett growling for two hours wasn't anywhere close to being as irritating as the Despicable 3 trailer (we were spared the Boss Baby one, thank god).

Barbara Gordon's intro + presentation was solid gold. Top of her class at Harvard For Police. STATISTICS and COMPASSION!

Boss Baby looked fucking awful.

this was totally great. agreed that it's not quite as good as The Lego Movie, but really really great for Batman and Lego fans.
love that these movies are still really (especially visually) creative and not lazy, production-wise. yeah the story is whatever but it had tons of great jokes and colorful splashy set pieces and animation. totally worth it

sometimes I wonder if I really like these movies just because of Corporal Dan...

so many lols at HARVARD FOR POLICE

So, the Australian distributors complained when the original movie came out thatr they lost estimated millions in piracy here because they waited over 2 months after release to release the movie in Aus. Then said theyd never make that mistake again.

Guess what isnt coming out here til MARCH EFFING 30???? :|

i thought this went on too long with its generic power-of-teamwork arc. also the animation wasn't as charming as the lego movie -- they went full cg overload instead of the "is this stop-motion or cg?" approach of tlm.

I was bored with this and left a half hour early, but I suspect I'm not its target audience. I Loved Lego Movie but this shtick wore thin really fast.

i really loved the use of kid noises for the guns during the battles .. 'peeeuuuw peeeeuuuw peeeeeuuuw'

hehe me too. the sort of stupid, non-clever yet completely amusing joke this movie had in spades

The LEGO ninjago movie Is genuinely funny imho. Writing is sharp and the voice acting is superb. Especially throreux as the evil lord garmadon

Lego Movie 2 is really good. It obv loses some compared to the first one which was such a surprise but I still really enjoyed it, also, it has some of best ending credits ever.

Agree with you on the ending credits, it's wonderfully animated and the Lonely Island song is great.

Found it a letdown from both Lego Movie I and Lego Batman personally. I loved some of the pieces - the overarching real world story was sweet and the final act were a lot of fun - but the first two thirds felt lacking in humor and momentum. But, in fairness, it was sort of impossible to follow up the first movie with something as good given that surprise.

ya all otm

That song is stuck inside my head.

took mk2 today to see it.
I was the oldest man in the cinema.
I laughed the most.
I absolutely loved it.

(if we had not watched LM1 yesterday then we would never have got the wonder woman invisible spaceship joke, nor several others … )

(Wonder Woman has had an invisible plane since 1941, btw!)

It's pretty wild that a) the first movie came out five years ago and b) five years ago President Business was if anything a slightly elderly Mitt Romney reference.
