Posted in Nintendo, Wii U, and tagged #LEGO Dimensions, sonicThe latest LEGO Jurassic World trailer reveals some in-game footage from the game depicting some of the important scenes of the franchise.
LEGO Jurassic World features the same iconic look of the LEGO games, and retains the series humoristic appeal. The trailer includes scenes from the first Jurassic Park movie as well as from Jurassic World, although the LEGO Jurassic World video game will include all four films. Following the epic storylines of Jurassic Park, The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park III, as well as the highly anticipated Jurassic World, LEGO Jurassic World is the first videogame where players will be able to relive and experience all four Jurassic films. The game will be available in June for the Xbox One, all-in-one games and entertainment system, the Xbox 360 games and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment systems, PlayStation®Vita handheld entertainment system, the Wii U™ system from Nintendo, Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system, and Windows PC. The Jurassic World movie, takes place twenty-two years after the events of Jurassic Park, at Isla Nublar, an island located off Central America’s Pacific Coast, near Costa Rica.
It now features a fully functional dinosaur theme park, Jurassic World, as originally envisioned by John Hammond. The park is owned by the Masrani Global Corporation, but attendance has been declining due to the lack of new attractions. Owen Grady, a member of the park’s on-site staff conduct behavioral research on the Velociraptors. At the corporation’s request, the park’s geneticists create a genetically modified hybrid dinosaur called the Indominus Rex, but it breaks loose and runs wild throughout the park, forcing the staff to consider extreme measures to stop it. There might be a million LEGO games, but they are definitely not going anywhere. There’s also a LEGO Avengers coming too. LEGO Jurassic World is being developed by Traveller’s Tales and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. It releases June 2015, for the PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii U, 3DS and PS Vita. The Jurassic World movie will be out in cinemas on June 11, 2015
We will bring you any new information on LEGO Jurassic World as soon as it becomes available.Title: The Lego Batman MovieRelease Date: February 10, 2017The movie industry is run by people looking to make a quick buck, rather than filmmakers looking to bring their creative vision to life. Making a movie as a means to sell another product has resulted in countless unwatchable movies over the years, saturating the marketplace. So when The Lego Movie was actually a genuinely good movie upon its release and not a marketing plot to sell toys to children, I was pleasantly surprised. It’s also why I wasn’t shocked, or upset when the spinoff Lego Batman movie was announced.While sequels and spinoffs are another issues plaguing the industry, Lego Batman feels like less of a cash grab and more of a testament to the success of the original Lego Movie. And what better way to reward fans than with a movie starring Emmit’s favorite superhero – and one of mine – Batman. It’s safe to say that Arnett’s performance as the sarcastic Dark Knight warranted the Spin-off – as well as the endless plot possibilities to plunder surrounding Batman lore – and he continued to deliver in the follow-up.
The tongue in cheek Batman’s promotion to the starring role did nothing to hinder his ability to make inappropriate jokes and dry comments if anything it’s enhanced it. While a lot of his best lines were spoiled by marketing – appearing in one of the many trailers – some of the best bits were the references. From satire filled scenes joking about previous, non-Lego installments of Batman – even playing old footage from the 1960’s movie – to throwing shade at DC’s Suicide Squad ( “Using criminals to fight other criminals is dumb.”), the animated comedy is filled to the brim with references to other films. So much so actually that it takes away from the film.The first half focus a just amount on the heroes and villains of Gotham, giving even C grade baddies like Calendar Man a shoutout, but apart from the Joker, really doesn’t take advantage of the rolls as much as they could. Instead of giving screen time to the likes of Billie Dee Williams (Two-Face) and Doug Benson (Bane), the latter half of the movie sees the Joker recruit non-DC villains that were banished to the phantom zone – Voldemort, King Kong, Sauron and even Gremlins – to help destroy Gotham.
Not only do these characters feel out of place, it just feels forced and like they’re pandering to the parents in the audience. The reason this upsets me is because the original Lego Movie didn’t look like it was for all audiences on the surface, but in reality, it wasn’t just a kids movie and didn’t try to insult you by pretending otherwise.Outside of the misplaced antagonist, the rest of the film contained all the beautiful cinematographic and choreograph aspects of the first installment. It will never cease to amaze me the things that filmmakers can do with stop motion animation and CGI, as each scene feels as realistic as possible for an animated film. Be it the Batglider screaming across the water or even the simplicity that is the characters walking, there are parts of the film that made me forget that I was essentially watching people play with Legos. The opening scene where Batman defeats all of his arch nemesis at once (and let’s face it, that’s not a spoiler for anyone who knows Bats) was a site to behold, as the entire thing was a joy to watch.
While Bruce Wayne has always been a brooding loner as Batman, the Lego Movie’s snide representation opened up ways of dealing with those feelings that previous installments have never ventured to, leading to the films interesting overarching plot. Everyone knows the origin of Batman, and how Thomas and Martha (MARTHA!) Wayne were gunned down in crime alley. But making Batman and subsequently Bruce Wayne, into a sarcastic ass made the approach to his grief unique, as instead of it hiding it below the surface as Batman, this flamboyant and arrogant version of the character (both as Batman and Wayne) is clearly in denial and doesn’t deal with it well. While Batman overcompensates by saying how awesome he is, singing his own theme song and shooting orphans with merch, Bruce Wayne his giant mansion alone eating microwaved lobster thermidor in his Batcave. His growth and eventual acceptance of a fear of losing loved ones again is a lovely way to have ended the kid’s movie, as Batman rarely gets a happy ending.
