The Lego Movie - Drunk Monk - 07-14-2014
Amusing. A little overwhelming at first, but once it settled on a story line, it had it's moments. I was hoping it would capitalize on the different brands a little more. The Green Lantern/Superman and Star Wars shticks were funny. I would have enjoyed it more in 3D. I would really enjoy a 'making of' featurette. Everything is Awesome is Mark Mothersbaugh's best song in years. I can't remember if there was a sword fight or not. There were pirates, so there must have been some swords.
The Simpsons episode Brick Like Me should be viewed immediately after seeing the Lego Movie.

I thought I saw only snippets of this on the film so I was waiting for it to come out on DVD. While watching it, I realized I saw almost all of it on the plane. Seeing it again made me like it less. Watching it with droopy eyes made it much better.
I agree with DM about the Star Wars stuff. The pony stuff was worse on second viewing. Knowing the ending didn't help either.
I would definitely like to see a making of movie for this one. I suspect most of it is just CGI rather than hand animation.
Did you catch that Simpsons episode? - Drunk Monk - 07-29-2014
It'll make the Lego movie better. srsly.
Simpson Ep accomplished - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 07-31-2014
Hmm, a story about a father coming to grips with his daughter growing older. I wonder why that would appeal to DM?
I think the Simpson story was much more succinct and poignant than the Lego Movie. And funnier.
Couldn't agree with you more on that point. - Drunk Monk - 08-06-2014

Ah, the millennium falcon. I laughed, too.
Just saw the 'Inside Lego' doc on Netflix. They sure make a lot of legos. But i also learned what Lego means. Look out Jeopardy.

...save us the trouble of Googling it or watching that doc.
