  • Опубликовано: 29 мар 2024
  • 10 years ago, The LEGO Movie surprised pretty much everyone by being one of the best films of 2014 and proved to be a critically and financially successful franchise going forward. Today though, after a string of poor decisions and box office failures, the future of the franchise is looking rather bleak.

      I was honestly kinda worried, when they announced a Spider-Women spinoff right alongside their announcement of ITSV 2; especially with how Sony's been milking their Spider-Man villain universe that is infinitely _less_ successful than Spider-Verse. But I'm glad that they made the right choice in the end and prioritized the main film series over the spinoffs.

      This is why I hope, for Nintendo's sake, that this "follow-up" to the Mario movie is a sequel. I know that we're getting spin-offs for Luigi and Donkey Kong, but I don't want them just yet. All these people saying "We're gonna get Rosalina, and Wario, and Waluigi, etc" have no idea how much they're putting the cart before the horse.
      Let's get a sequel that will be infinitely better than the first movie because Mario and Luigi are going on an actual adventure together.

    The Lego Movie was the definition of "capturing lightning in a bottle". It's a movie that nobody was anticipating the level of success that it had both critically and financially. So you can feel the pressure from the filmmakers and the studio to catch up with the success but seemed to not understand what made the first movie so great in the first place. The Lego Batman Movie did it so well but unfortunately Lego Ninjago and The Lego Movie 2 kinda misunderstood it, that last two movies seemed like the movie that everybody feared that The Lego Movie would've been like if it was treated the wrong way and that's a shame as Lord and Miller were the writers of the The Lego Movie 2

    Takanuva was going to be in The Lego Movie 2 as a counter for Rex since he is the Toa of Light. Emit's own shoulder angels. whenever Rex would try to get Emit to do something bad, Taka would convince him not to. but Taka was cut because he might have interfered with the plot too much.

    From seasons 11-16, the episodes are 11 minutes instead of 22 minutes
    Season 11: first half is fire themed, second half is ice themed (ice chapter is the better one, but the whole is kinda bad)

    I could not have agreed more when it came to the ninjago film. Sometimes I forget it even existed due to the writing of the film and the characters that honestly disappointed me when I was actually excited for the film and just pretened that it was never made. At the same time tho, I get that it did and wanted to bring in new viewers to the fandom, I do also feel that shouldnt have been as an insult to the those who were fans of the fan base before the movie. The very few things that I liked (and were even somewhat similar to the show), was that not everything was lego, which I loved about the show. It felt new and different that was almost like a breath of fresh air when it came to lego animated shows. But thats just me.

      The reboot/what comes after march of the oni is also pretty cool.
      I loved prime empire and the one with Wojira.
      Also crystallized wasn’t the best, but I enjoyed watching it.
      Also dragons rising seems awesome as well.

    Hot Take: I enjoyed The LEGO Movie 2. It is Mike Mitchell's best film, but that doesn't mean I trust him to direct another film from a famous IP after what he did with Kung Fu Panda 4.
    Also, the one thing I love from the sequel more than the first is the villain.
    Lord Business is a decent threat, but the character kinda lacks depth and acts just as another control freak villain. Yes, we later find out the character is inspired by the boy's father, who doesn't want him to play with his legos, but other than a line, he mentions that nobody ever told him he was special, he's not as intresting as the main characters.
    Rex Dangervest is not only a funny and threatening villain, but we already know him. SPOILERS, if you never saw the film, Rex is a future version of Emmet, in which his timeline, nobody rescue him while trying to save his friends. Stuck inside a dryer for years while watching all his friends dancing and remembering all the times everyone called him out for not being tough, made him bitter and change his whole identity. Remember, Emmet was lonely even before becoming the special, he had no friends, no family, just him, and a pet plant. And after finally making new friends and saving the world, he believed his friends abandoned him because they didn't bother to search him, which is why he created a time machine to save his past self, to make him the tough person Lucy "would be proud of" and provoke ourmomageddon, so everyone will get trapped in the bin of storag, and get a taste of what was it like to unable to move in one place.
    He's one of the few villains I wouldn't mind if he had won, because he has the right to revenge, but that also allowed Lucy and everyone else to see their errors of their ways (Lucy trying to be a tough person and ignoring his past, the master builder's being tough for the sake of survive, and the gang and the systar system trying to make everything awesome and ignoring the cruelity truth that not everything is awesome) and change for the better.
    I know I sound like I'm overanalyzing a sequel people just found to be okay, but it's true

    The Lego Batman movie might not have IMO been as good in plot as The Lego Movie 1, but the humor still makes it worth watching, and anyone who defends the other aspects have perfectly valid opinions. The Lego Ninjago Movie, on the other hand, is not even worth watching, though it at least led the 2 new fans from it into one of that show's best seasons. Also, I decided not to watch the second part because of how worse it is.
