THE LEGO MOVIE: 10 YEARS OF AWESOME - (Retrospective)

I just love how in The LEGO Movie Chris Pratt plays Emmet and Charlie Day plays Benny while in the The Mario Movie Chris Pratt plays Mario while Charlie Day plays Luigi.

the lego movie is basically the matrix for kids

I love how that clip with the ninja was supposed to be a joke but then it came true after the movie came out.

The first Lego Movie was a banger but the sequel didn’t meet the expectations of the first movie. It was fine but it’s not that impactful, but I did find a slight enjoyment from it.

No wayyyy YOUR THIS UNDERRATED???

I can’t believe it’s been 10 years already!

What a beautiful tribute to my favorite movie. Couldn't have said it better myself. Thank you.

I'm one of the rare people who enjoyed the second part more than the first, and your video helped me understand why my opinion isn't as popular. I liked the first movie, a lot, but nothing felt like a plot twist in it. That versimilitude was shattered as soon as I saw the first "relic." The plot twist being"*Gasp!* LEGO is a TOY?!" didn't even register as a supposed twist, and I didn't feel that playing into the tropes served the story, but it was a fun ride nonetheless. Meanwhile, I liked how we got to fully embrace that they were toys in the second part, I somehow did not realize that Rex was voiced by Chris Pratt as well, "Not Into Gotham City Guys" and "Not Evil" played on repeat in my house, and the twist at the end how the entire gimmick of the movie was born out of the brother's love for his sister got me good.

This video was excellently produced, I’m sure you’ll gain much bigger following if you keep improving, I’ve subscribed :)

Thanks for that look back! For me personally the Ninjago Movie is another highlight. It was the first of the Lego movies I watched (and my first contact with Ninjago) and Justin Theroux as Lord Garmadon alone is worth a million rewatches. 🙂

This film is one of my favorite movies of all time and my 4th favorite animated movie ever made behind the Spiderverse movies and How To Train Your Dragon. Every frame of this movie is a treat for the eyes and the story is just great. And it's absolutely hilarious to boot.

I saw this and realized this guy has less than 100k subscribers. What the fuck, this guy is great he deserves WAAAY more than less than 500 subscribers.

This movie is 10 years old already? I feel old. :(

Now, after Warner Bros lost the movie license for lego; it's kinda suspicious that lego has mostly made more sets with Universal IPs, like Despicable Me, Troll's, Fast and the Furious, Super Mario... Just sayin' it can't be a coincidence

Fantastic essay.

I’ve heard that there’s a new Lego Movie coming in October of this year called Piece by Piece about the story of Pharrell Williams.

hey algorithm this video is so engaging i am very engaged

What a great video! Loved your insights - thanks for sharing!

How has it been 10 years already!?

When you really think about it, this movie is THE MATRIX but for all audiences. Normal not special average joe finds out his whole world is controlled by external forces and that he is in fact a slave. He meets a badass female character who eventually becomes his love interest, is trained by a wise older mentor, and with time learns to believe in himself and bend the world to his will to fulfill a prophecy.
