There seems to be an ever active conveyor belt of licensed LEGO games – covering everything from Marvel comics to Star Wars to Harry Potter – but they’re so joyously funny and full to the brim with fun references for fans, that this is one ever-expanding franchise we’re happy to encourage. So with the release of new virtual building block adventure Lego: Dimensions, which references and affectionately lampoons all manner of popular culture, we thought we’d take a look through some of the best in-jokes featured in the games so far. We all must have through thisat some point: who are the guys building the Death Star in Star Wars? Because if they’re anything like the builders we have on planet Earth, it’s no wonder there were flaws in the plan (no offence builders).
In the first cutscene of Return of the Jedi in the LEGO game, Darth Vader arrives at the Death Star and is greeted by the admiral. Across the way are a team of builders, slacking off, spinning on chairs and sipping coffee instead of getting to work fixing all those holes that lead directly to the space station’s essential power core, and that are just big enough for an enemy ship to fit down with ease. It’s no wonder it blew up, really. In the film Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, upon opening, the Ark releases evil spirits that kill defilers of the ancient relic by accelerating their ageing process, and thus, disintegrating their life force. In the LEGO game, it releases a disco ball that forces all the characters to dance to the Star Wars theme. Oh, don’t worry, it does kill them in the end, but there’s a good 20 seconds of seeing enemy soldiers throwing some serious shapes to the theme that plays at the end of A New Hope. What’d be worse: dying horrifically or being forced to dance till the end of time?
It’s too tough of a choice to make on a Friday… Remember the scene in Jurassic Park where the car falls down on top of them, and Timmy goes: “Well, we’re back in the car again”? The LEGO game takes it to a whole new level. The car parts fall off, and land around Alan and the kids, building the car back up again. When the camera pans out, they’re actually sat in the car, as if they’d just driven down the tree. There’s even a little LEGO build completion noise when it finishes assembling. It’s like meta comedy, where LEGO not only take the mick out of the film by exaggerating the quote, but mock themselves also. Can’t help but love it. How infuriating was it in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, when Mr. Lovegood is attempting to fool the trio into staying at his house long enough for the Death Eaters to arrive, and he’s just so tactless about it? Well, the LEGO game captures this perfectly. When Hermione hints at wanting to see Luna, Mr. Lovegood goes up stairs and dresses up in her clothes, making a horribly bad attempt at tricking the heroes.
Watch the level here, and the scene is at 7:03. Even the most casual Lord of the Rings fan will remember the drawn out death of Boromir, in which he takes three arrows to the chest whilst defending Merry and Pippin, before finally dying (and it’s all really sad). Well, the LEGO games doing what they do best, turned that harrowing moment of bravery from tragedy into comedy. We’re not going to lie, it’s a little less epic, but a small bit of humour never hurt anyone, did it? Well, except Boromir… and we bet that banana has seen better days as well. For those outside the loop, the early LEGO games didn’t have speech in them, so the characters would make gestures to explain what they were saying. Obviously, they needed to come up with a way to show Darth Vader saying the infamous line “I am your father”, and this is what they did. Holding up a family photo of two people Luke would have no way of recognising. How brilliant is that? To be fair, it was probably the best option at the time.
