While we all eagerly await The LEGO Batman Movie, Warner Bros. is moving ahead with The LEGO Movie Sequel, but there’s now been a director shake up. In February 2015, we reported that Rob Schrab, who had previously directed episodes of Community and The Mindy Project, would be making his feature debut on The LEGO Movie 2. However, it now turns out that he’s off the project, and according to THR, the studio has brought in Trolls helmer Mike Mitchell. It’s a bit of a discouraging move when you look at their respective filmographies. Yes, Schrab hadn’t done a feature film before, but he had lots of experience with TV comedies. Then you look at Mitchell, whose best film is Sky High. However, his resume also includes Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, and Surviving Christmas. So there is some cause for concern. That’s not to say that The LEGO Movie 2 will be a bust. Raphael Bob-Waksberg, who is behind the acclaimed animated series BoJack Horseman, wrote the latest draft of the script and Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who wrote and directed the first LEGO Movie, are still on board as producers (although I assume most of their attention right now is on the Han Solo spinoff).
Hopefully, Mitchell carries the winning attitude of the first movie into the sequel. I’m also curious what the “creative differences” were with Schrab that led to him leaving the project and Warner Bros. bringing in Mitchell. While The LEGO Movie 2 is still a couple years away, my expectations for it remain as high as ever, so I wish Mitchell the best in trying to match the magic of the first movie. The LEGO Movie 2 is currently set to open on February 8, 2019. If you need your LEGO fix before then, The LEGO Batman Movie opens next Friday. View More In Kids & Family The first-ever full-length theatrical LEGO movie follows Emmet, an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which Emmet is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared. This film is awesome, one of the best films ever made for children, or for people who have a mental age of 7 years, like me sometimes.
But don't let this stop you from not watching it. I love the Lego Movie, it's hilarious and creative. However, the Lego movie has just one minor issue. It's got two story lines. Which are very confusing, and you will see what I mean when you see it. don't let this stop you from not watching it. if you don't recognize where the story lines are,you're going to have a laugh. It had me in tears of joy from the start until the finish. Go and see the film, enjoy it. If you don't laugh, clearly, you need to see it again. 'Everything is awesome' In this film...in my opinion the way they made the characters and sets look real as if it we're stop motion was amazing and not only this the movie that is recommended for all ages surprisingly has humour for the elder generation...however this movie has the sinister underlying message that I feel is touching in a way which is 'parents aren't able to see their children's creative potential which is shown through the live action sequence and it also is able to show the older generation how to correct this which is shown by having the same clothing as mr business the super billion and the dad until the blaze comes if showing the dad in a 'white' shirt where White represents purity and change...overall I think this movie has a powerful message but also on the friendlier side is fun for all best movie of the year so far...
Wow amazing for all ages Just watch it“The Special is here! Er... where is here, exactly?” — Emmet's line when entering the game “I am so pumped up!” — Emmet's second line when entering the gameLemme at those instructions!” — Emmet's third line when entering the game is one of the Fun Pack characters in . He appears in for the franchise. Emmet has been working most of his life on the construction site as an instruction worker in the city of Bricksburg. He longs to be popular, but his co-workers hardly notice he is there. He lives life by the book--literally--and builds things only from the instructions and because of this, however, he is mostly boring and uncreative, except for at some moment of inspiration, like his inventing the "double decker couch". He isn't a fan of adventure or danger either (similar to Bilbo Baggins), both of which give him reason for "freaking out". One day, however, he stumbles upon the Piece of Resistance while going after Wyldstyle, which makes the Master Builders mistake him as being "The Special", which means he must stop Lord Business from gluing the world together with the Kragle and From that point on, he is caught in a desperate struggle between the powers of order and imagination by Lord Business and the Master Builders
, respectively--as well as his self-acceptance in being special in his own ways. In the final battle, Emmet convinces Lord Business that creativity isn't messy or weird, and that it is okay for the people to build brand-new ideas from all the things Business himself had made, which makes him special, too, just like everyone is special. Moved by Emmet's speech and touched by being considered special, Business applies the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle, which soon causes the Kragle to explode, deactivating all of his robot minions and unfreezing his victims (though the real "victims" were saved when the Man Upstairs cleaned the glue off them). He then became Wyldstyle's boyfriend and was seen sitting down along with the Master Builders and Lord Business at his double-decker couch. He was in Cloud Cuckoo Land for a break dancing competition with Wyldstyle, Unikitty, and Metalbeard. After Wyldstyle was declared the winner and Unikitty complaining aside, they witnessed Metalbeard being sucked into the vortex with his treasure chest, and saw Gandalf and Batman falling on top of LEGO Movie Batman, as well as the slap fight between the two Batmen then he and Unikitty actually agreed to join the trio to find their missing friends, but before they can join up
, the vortex sucked the three main heroes up. “There is something awfully familiar about you, mister dino-wrangler man. I feel like we've met before.” — Emmet to Owen Grady — Emmet's second quote towards OwenAm I alright to call you Lucy?

We should to this again sometime.” — Emmet's second line when leaving the game “Well, looks like you've got things under control here. — Emmet's third line when leaving the gameI can see why Benny loves these things so much!” — Emmet when entering Benny's SpaceshipBut, I think someone might've doodled on your instructions.” — Emmet when seeing a giant character or when entering a mechThis just doesn't seem safe at all!” — Emmet's second line when in the vortex “Alright, let's cut loose and follow the instructions with pleasure!” — Emmet's first line when upgrading his vehicle/gadget
