Man clings to the side of speeding car... Nicki Minaj on the set of her new music... The Lego Movie (Nederlands: De Lego Film) is een Amerikaans komische 3D-film uit 2014 van Phil Lord en Christopher Miller met in de originele versie de stemmen van onder meer Chris Pratt en Elizabeth Banks. In de Nederlandstalige versie zijn de stemmen van onder meer Kees Tol en Georgina Verbaan te horen. De film bestaat grotendeels uit met de computer geanimeerde beelden van LEGO-gebaseerde personages en omgevingen, maar bevat ook een klein gedeelte live-action. In de film zijn in totaal 15.080.330 (virtuele) legoblokjes gebruikt. Leeswaarschuwing: Onderstaande tekst bevat details over de inhoud en/of de afloop van het verhaal. Aan het begin van de film slaagt tovenaar Vitruvius (stem Morgan Freeman) er niet in om een "Kragle" geheten superwapen uit handen te houden van de gemene Lord Business (Will Ferrell), maar hij uit de voorspelling dat een persoon aangeduid als "Special" het "Piece of Resistance" zal vinden waarmee de Kragle gestopt kan worden.
Jaren later vindt de doodgewone bouwvakker Emmet (Chris Pratt) dit Piece, maar hij wordt gevangengenomen door Business' handlanger Bad Cop (Liam Neeson). Ene Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks) redt hem en vertelt dat ze beide Master Builders zijn, die alles kunnen bouwen wat ze kunnen bedenken, zonder handleiding, terwijl Business alle creativiteit juist de kop in wil drukken. Samen met andere Master Builders binden ze de strijd aan tegen Business. Later blijkt dat het hele verhaal zich afspeelt in de fantasie van een met Lego spelend jongetje, Finn, wiens vader (ook Will Ferrell) vindt dat de creaties van zijn zoon te wanordelijk zijn, dat wil zeggen niet volgens de handleiding.The Piece of Resistance Our community, 1121 want it Our community, 1236 want it Super Secret Police Enforcer Our community, 980 want it Our community, 1088 want it Our community, 1047 want it Our community, 1414 want it Our community, 1143 want it Our community, 1372 want it

The theatrical attraction reunites Emmet and friends in an all-new short story combining dazzling 3D computer animation with "4D," real-world effects such as wind, water and fog. The resort built for kids delivered an appropriately kid-centric premiere with festive music, a taco bar and the introduction of new Park costume characters: Unikitty and Benny!
Celebrities strolled the red carpet before entering the LEGO Show Place Theater to celebrate the return of Emmet, Wyldstyle, MetalBeard, Benny and Unikitty. In 2014, kids around the world embraced the adventures of Emmet, an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the key to saving the world in "The LEGO Movie™," which went on to gross more than $400 million worldwide. But what happened after the movie? Fans can find out starting Saturday, Feb. 6, now that "The LEGO Movie™ 4D A New Adventure" has officially opened at LEGOLAND California Resort. Returning to voice their iconic characters are actors Elizabeth Banks (Wyldstyle), Nick Offerman (MetalBeard), Charlie Day (Benny) and Alison Brie (Unikitty). Actor, writer and comedian Patton Oswalt voices the scheming Risky Business, brother of movie villain President Business, a new character created exclusively for the attraction. When asked how it felt to join a "family" of well-known characters, Patton responded, "It's beyond flattering.
It's a clever, creative way of looking at, of all things, LEGO, and I was touched to be a part of it." Patton added that since Risky Business is a character that fans of "The LEGO Movie" haven't seen before, he approached his performance in hiding his character's true intentions "with the wiles of a LEGO coyote." Set after the events of the movie, the 12 ½-minute story finds the gang entangled in an Evil Secret Plot involving a mysterious theme park inspired by their adventures in "The LEGO Movie," one that requires them to call on the Master Builder skills of a surprise ally to save the day. "The LEGO Movie™ 4D A New Adventure" was directed by Rob Schrab, who is making his feature film directorial debut with "The LEGO Movie Sequel," set to open May 18, 2018. When it came to designing the attraction, he said a strong story was critical to its success. "We only spotlight them for a fraction of the amount of time," he said, "so it's important to get to the fun as soon as possible.
This is the first time Emmet, Wyldstyle and the gang meet since the film." Developed in collaboration with LEGOLAND owner Merlin Entertainments Group and Warner Bros. Consumer Products, the attraction was created by Los Angeles-based Pure Imagination Studios with input from Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the talented writer-directors who brought "The LEGO Movie" to hilarious life, along with producer Dan Lin. The result is a delightfully clever blend of the same sly humor and breathtaking, built-with-LEGO visuals that made the first-ever, full-length theatrical LEGO film a global hit among kids and adults alike. For Offerman, the opportunity to slip back into MetalBeard's shoes – er, bricks – was a welcome one. "I have worked with Rob on 'Childrens Hospital' and 'Parks and Recreation,' so it was like a nice reunion of old pals from summer camp," he said of making the attraction. "We just tried to make each other laugh with silly renderings of dead-serious pirate-y mayhem."
