The Lego Movie

Spaceship! Yeah, this was a pretty funny movie, and I definitely had a soft spot for that retro space dude – those Lego sets were my favorite when I was a kid, and just like we see towards the end of the film, I would constantly make battleships using those pieces. Most of the other best laughs come from Batman, brilliantly played by Will Arnett. The best joke of all though is that the “moral” of the movie basically follows the voice of people my age and above, who grew up making our own stuff, and who constantly decry how today’s Lego sets are nothing but paint-by-numbers licensed toys.
