Lego: The Movie

*Raph's Girl* · 06-18-2013, 07:22 PM

Ok so...here's the thing. In 2014 we're getting a theatrical Lego movie that's one big arse crossover. How big of a crossover? The JLA and the TMNT are in it!! It's also narrated by Morgan Freeman. This looks awesome!! The first trailer is out!

It's from the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs guys! Loved that movie!

I'm not gonna front, this looks pretty cray. I just hope it's not another Wreck it Walph situation where the cameos aren't as great as they could have been.

Sonic's was awesome.

Sweet! Can't wait to see this!

*Donatello19* · 06-18-2013, 08:07 PM

You don't even understand how excited I am for this! Although I do have a bad feeling that the licensed characters (Batman, TMNT etc) will most likely just make cameos, I'm still going to see this on opening day. And this is stop motion, right? If so, that's absolutely amazing. I can't wait to see what other cool things they'll do with the stop motion in this. The main character seems like an annoying male stereotype right now, but I guess we'll see how he turns out.

*The Stryker* · 06-18-2013, 08:09 PM

I really hope this doesn't turn out to be an unfunny piece of garbage like Wreck-It Ralph.

What I saw though was pretty funny. Intrigued. I really hope Shaq plays himself.

*Donatello19* · 06-18-2013, 08:12 PM

I really hope that the turtles will play a part in the story...it seems like a perfect opportunity for them to since their new movie is coming out the same year.

dudeabides · 06-18-2013, 08:13 PM

They sure know how to sell their movies making a certain green reptile the most visible of the 4.

But.....why? They're clearly there as a joke I wouldn't be surprised if that's the only scene Michelangelo appears in.

I actually think it would be dumb if they tried to make the guest stars the focus of the movie it just seems pointless. Tell an original story with your original characters.

*Donatello19* · 06-18-2013, 08:15 PM

I just noticed that Mikey is the only turtle in the trailer. I wonder if the others are in the movie...

Also, is it wrong that I'm more excited for this than I am for the new TMNT movie?

Not saying they should be the focus of the movie, I was just saying that it would be cool if they contributed to the plot somehow instead of making a 2 second cameo, just like how Batman helped out the "original characters" in the trailer without him being the focus of the entire movie.

Trailer looks really great. I am a little weary about the cameos tho, I can see the whole movie centering around that Emmet guy with the cameos being mainly small, unspeaking roles. still looks really entertaining tho.

*The Boston Ninja Turtle* · 06-18-2013, 11:54 PM

CAN.NOT.WAIT.....love cloudy and this movie looks like it will just be fun...almost like a kids dream come true

*Wildcat* · 06-19-2013, 12:09 AM

Wow this seems like its gonna be epic. 1980s Space Guy lol.

Even besides the licensed franchises there alot of great LEGO themes/sets they could use from the past.

*Zulithe* · 06-19-2013, 12:29 AM

MAN! I really wanted to post this

Should have known RG would always find it first. LEGO is awesome.

*Bauer536* · 06-19-2013, 01:08 AM

I saw the trailer. I'm actually looking forward to this.

My only thing I'm weary about are not the cameos, but the main characters themselves. The main protagonist sounds like a complete moron, and I don't think I will be sympathize with him. Plus, the other original characters look weak. It's just that Batman scene that won me over.

Hoping we get to see something TMNT related that contains dialogue from the turtles.

InsaneZane · 06-20-2013, 08:54 AM

That cameo is hilarious! Now they need their own LEGO TMNT Movie or Video Games

Konchadunga · 06-21-2013, 01:47 PM

Everything about that trailer was awesome except for Pit Bull.

Also, I liked Wreck it Ralph, but no doubt it wasn't as great as it should have been. I'd argue this already looks better in that the pre-existing characters like Gandalf and Batman actually act like themselves, get good lines, and have a point in the plot, but I dare say the underdog hero thing is played out and in need of retiring? It might be okay here if they're subverting it with an underdog antihero, but we'll see. I'm still going to see this, provided the ticket doesn't cost three times what it's worth.
