Eind 2015 komt The LEGO Movie wel weer terug in de videogame LEGO Dimensions. Dit artikel is een Begin. Je kan Brickipedia helpen door deze pagina te bewerken.

First, seeing it 3 times in 3 days, plus buying the LEGO Movie Video Game for both PS3 and 3DS (review to come later) and playing the PS3 version, and the ongoing news, reviews and accolades that the movie keeps getting from pretty much everywhere.
The “Everything is Awesome” song is now permanently lodged in my brain — it doesn’t help that they keep playing it throughout the video game. And then to culminate it all, yesterday I went to The LEGO Movie Experience that made its debut yesterday at LEGOLAND California. If you haven’t watched the LEGO Movie yet, and don’t want to find out one of the major spoilers, read no further. Come back after you’ve watched the movie. Okay, now that that’s done, lets get to this. Like I said when I wrote my Non-spolier review, I still have a lot to write about this movie. One thing I didn’t like that much in the movie was its biggest spoiler — entering the real world. I get that it taught a valuable lesson of creativity over keeping things just so, but I felt that it pulled you out of the story. I would have preferred if we never entered the real world. Even if remnants of it (band-aid, “kragel,”etc) were in the LEGO world. However, if they had not added that real world element, The LEGO Movie Experience would not have been possible.
In the movie, the “real world” is basically an Adult Fan of LEGO’s basement LEGO room. And what a room! A full town layout in the middle, castle, western, and space themes along the wall, a corner that looks very much like my desk with all the “nuts and bolts” drawers full of LEGO and various LEGO kits and creations on display. But of course Finn — the son — isn’t supposed to play with any of it. Those are all Dad’s collection — not toys! any of us die-hard AFOLs have LEGO Rooms of one sort or another. Our rooms vary in collection size and how much our roommates or families allow it to exist. Not all have rooms like Will Farrell’s character in the movie, but I know quite a few who do — me included. And some have the “my collection” and the “kid’s collection.” Most who do will allow their children to borrow from them, but there is a definite line. Even my brothers (who I took their LEGO when they grew out of it) like to play with my collection (they are 35 and 27 by the way) when they visit and sometimes I bristle silently (or not so silently) when they mess up my system.
You can see the “Magic Portal” tube in the back of the room. But, despite all that LEGO can be, it is first and foremost a toy. If and when I have children they will definitely be allowed to play with my LEGO, and they will have their own. Of course I’ve never been one that leaves huge LEGO displays out. For one, leaving displays out permanently causes them to get dusty and color fading can happen. For another, I don’t have the room to leave large things out. I never know when I’ll need the space for a commission. I’ve been known to take over the dining room table when the project is too large for weeks. So leaving a large model or display up, at least at this point, is not in the cards for me. As an added bonus for the grand opening, they had a special guest — Jadon Sand, “Finn” of the LEGO Movie. He was on hand to tell of his experience working with Will Farrell and being in the LEGO Moive. During the question and answer part, I asked him if he wanted to be a Master Builder. H
e said yes, he definitely does. When I got to talk with him and his mom later he said he would like to be a Master Builder, Director and Writer. I also asked him what his favorite theme was and he said he loves the Harry Potter sets. He even treated us to a rendition of “Everything is Awesome.” I took lots more pictures, you can see them on Flickr as well as these pics by Miro. I was fortunate enough to get in as Media, because when I emerged from the building it was to a massively long line. Some of my fellow SandLUG members were in line for over an hour and a half! I would have taken more pictures, but as the public came in, and it got more and more crowded, I felt it was time to leave. One cool thing I got was a picture with Jadon that his mom took It was great meeting Jadon Sand and seeing the awesome models that were used in the movie. And check out this Awesome video LEGOLAND made for the opening. If you get a chance to come to LEGOLAND California, be sure to check this out. I
’m not sure for how long this will be there, but I imagine it will be for quite a while, especially considering the popularity of the movie. 😉I am a fully grown man and I’m not ashamed to admit I went to see The Lego Movie with two other fully independent adults. And we had a great time. Initially drawn in by the jokes and the creative animation, I was pleasantly surprised by what I took to be a biblical narrative: we are intended to create and steward resources in ways that bring joy and other benefits to other individuals, society, and creation. In addition to that primary narrative, I also interpreted a limited government, free market theme. All these elements taken together make the movie an entertaining and uplifting hour and a half. Although I am very tempted to just write praise for the imagination of the animators, the cleverness of the jokes and the tremendous cast, I want to focus on one of the underlying themes that comes through as the plot unfolds: a command-and-control society squashes human flourishing and creativity.
President Business, voiced by Will Ferrell, is the antagonist in the story and wants to make everything perfect. In his quest to perfect society he creates a surveillance state, controls the media, and has a final scheme that will complete his centrally designed goal. Analogous to the command-and-control structure of Soviet-style communist governments, what starts from good motives quickly turns evil. In order to achieve the perfect society, the Lego peoples’ creativity has to be curbed. The free-wheeling, creative figures known as the Master Builders are driven underground or rounded up by President Business and his robot minions. What the Lego citizens realize – and what has been true of centrally controlled economies the world over – is, as Winston Churchill is credited with saying, Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. The resistance knows President Business’s plan for perfection will actually be just a “sharing of misery.”
To stop President Business, Emmett, an average, everyday Lego man finds himself leading a small group of Master Builders. Along the way, Emmett encourages his friends to not only exercise their creativity but also to work together. What does he never expect Master Builders to do?…You are so creative…but you don’t work together. Emmett and the Master Builders’ story is a celebration of the fact that we are made in the image of a creative God and we have enormous creative potential ourselves. Only God can create something out of nothing, but we can, and are called to, create something out of something. We participate with God in creativity. Different people are given different gifts, but all are called to use creativity in developing their callings and carrying out their work. This creativity doesn’t take place in a vacuum. God is a creative God, but he is also a relational one. In Genesis he says, “Let us make man in our image.” Just as we image God’s capacity for creativity, we image his capacity for relationships as well.
And so we use our creative gifts in relation to other people, to serve them. As John Bolt writes in Economic Shalom, We do not work as solitary individuals in isolation but always as participants in an economy, a social order. This truth plays out in the movie as Emmett recognizes that his friends are unique. When the Master Builders work together in ways that complement their differences, they can achieve much more than when they work alone. In the real world, we see this creativity flourish in a market system. When people are allowed to freely trade and create, taking advantage of both their unique gifts and those of others, society is better off. Markets allow the Master Builder in each of us to flourish as God intended. While the theme of free creative expression is a good one, the movie is not a full-throated endorsement of limited government. It seems to highlight the free exchange of cultures and ideas (which is good) rather than the free exchange of scarce resources, which should also be encouraged.
