Emmet, Wyldstyle and Friends Reunite in All-New StoryEmmet and his Master Builder friends return in “The LEGO® Movie™ 4D A New Adventure,” an all-new, theatrical attraction that combines dazzling, 3D computer animation with “4D,” real-world effects such as wind, water and fog. Set after the events of the blockbuster 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.” 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. “The LEGO Movie 4D A New Adventure” plays multiple times per day in the theme park’s Wells Fargo Fun Town Theater, which recently underwent a dramatic, Hollywood-style makeover, adding giant, golden Emmet statues, character handprints in cement and an interactive red carpet filled with special effects.

No clue how we can even make I happen since its been out of production for years!No single streaming service will offer every movie, but which of the big four Australian contenders has the broadest range of titles? We've rated Netflix, Stan, Presto and Quickflix to identify how many certified box office hits they offer. When Netflix launched last month, we examined how many of the movies that reached #1 in Australian cinemas were available on both the Australian and US versions. Below, we've taken the same list and checked which titles are available across Netflix Australia, Stan, Presto and Quickflix. We've also updated the results for Netflix, as it has changed its movie offering ever so slightly since launch. All results are from each service's own internal search engine as of 15/4/2015;
keep in mind that offerings can and do alter over time. Conclusions are below the data, so just keep on scrolling. There are all sorts of fascinating trends in this data, but the most stark and obvious fact is that, just like Netflix, nobody has a really good spread of the last few year's worth of hit movies to offer either, which reiterates the point that there really is no one service that rules them all. Getting a little more specific, there's not even a clear "winner" across all years. Presto "wins" 2014 by a slim margin and 2013 by a much wider margin, but then absolutely falls off a cliff in terms of popular available movies. Stan picks up the slack for 2012, and Netflix whomps everyone when it comes to the movies of 2011. Then there's poor old Quickflix, which maintained an absolutely consistent level of movie availability, albeit not one that's a stunning advertisement for its subscription streaming service. Not a single one of the titles in this list is available.
To be fair and absolutely accurate, if you search for many of these movies on Quickflix's publicly facing search engine, a huge quantity will come up as available for streaming. The issue here is that these are, without a single exception, "Premium" streaming titles. Premium streaming in Quickflix-speak means that they're a rental title. The correct comparison there would be to services such as iTunes and Google Play, not Netflix, Presto or Stan. Still, everyone performs badly if you're after box office hits, with nobody even having half of a given year's movies. There are countless titles that absolutely nobody has — in the case of last year's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that's arguably a good thing — but as services for delivering popular box office fare, nobody's got a whole lot of crowing to do. One final note of caution: I originally started putting this list together using the services of JustWatch, because in theory that's exactly the right tool to work out which movies are across which services, only to find fairly early on that its data isn't always reliable either.
Specifically, at the time of checking, JustWatch reckoned that nobody had streaming rights to 22 Jump Street, which rather surprised me, having watched it just recently on Netflix Australia. Yes, I sometimes watch terrible Hollywood schlock fare, but leaving that aside, it also revealed to me another area where almost everyone needs to improve their streaming services, and that's search. Netflix is a little better and quicker than either Stan or Presto, and while Quickflix has a nice responsive engine, it seems to think that The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe is related to just about every movie on this list. I, for one, fail to see the connection. At the same time, doing all that searching within each service's own search engine did reveal that for a lot of the movies that were sequels or part of a series, you'll fare much better for older movies. That makes sense given the low entry cost for these streaming services, as it's reasonable to assume that the rights on older movies would cost considerably less than those of recent box office hits.

Leavesden studios in London and now a new casting call for the movie has emerged on a casting website.
According to Acting Auditions, the studio is currently looking for actors, extras and crew members. Surprisingly enough, Mad Mad: Fury Road helmer George Miller is listed as a producer on the project. Miller was previously rumored to be in talks to direct another Superman standalone movie for Warners. However, the director later revealed that he would not be directing a blockbuster in the near future in order to focus on other, smaller projects, but it seems that the studio still found a way to get him involved in the universe. Additionally, Amber Heard is mentioned in the casting call in the role of Mera. While these kind of reports tend to be very hit or miss, it’s more than likely that the actress has indeed joined the cast of the movie, since it was recently reported by various trades that she was in negotiations to play the Queen of Atlantis. Green Lantern is also name dropped in the casting call even though there were reports claiming that wouldn’t be seeing the superhero until Justice League – Part 2.
