The LEGO Movie Sequel Has Release Date of May 26, 2017

February 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The LEGO Movie sequel that we’ve been reporting about now has a tentative release date of May 26, 2017 according to Box Office Mojo. Warner Bros. has already recruited screenwriter Jared Stern (Wreck-It Ralph, Mr. Popper’s Penguins) and Michelle Morgan to start working on a script for the follow-up to The LEGO Movie. There is no word on who will be directing the sequel but Phil Lord and Christopher Miller has stated they would like to produce the second movie.

As we also reported a few days ago, there will also be a LEGO Ninjago movie by Warner Bros. that will be released in the future and there were talks about which movie would be released in theaters first. Now that there’s a date for sequel, we can probably assume that the Ninjago movie will be coming out first with the sequel still three years out.

The LEGO Movie has been tops of the box office for the past few weeks and it looks to stay on top this weekend even though there are some movies coming out this week like Pompeii and 3 Days to Kill. Early forecasts show that The LEGO Movie will still stay on top after this weekend. It has already made over $200 million worldwide and it doesn’t look like it will slow down anytime soon.

Could LEGO Ninjago Movie Hit Theaters Before The LEGO Movie Sequel?

February 19, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last year, we reported that a LEGO Ninjago movie by Warner Bros. will be heading to movie theaters. A few weeks ago, we also reported that the studio has already started working on a script for The LEGO Movie sequel. The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that the Warner Bros. will soon decide whether to do go ahead and do a sequel for The LEGO Movie as well as the Ninjago movie at the same time and if they do, they have to decide which one will come to theaters first. Dan Lin and Roy Lee, who helped produced The LEGO Movie, will join directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller as the producers for Ninjago. Charlie Bean who directed Tron: Uprising on Disney XD will direct the Ninjago movie. Dan and Kevin Hageman, who wrote Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu for Cartoon Network, will also be involved in the new movie.

Warner Bros. has rights to only one sequel for The LEGO Movie so The LEGO Group could go to another studio if they wanted to. By adding another film from the LEGO Universe, this will help establish a stronger bond between the companies.

There are no details at this time of what the LEGO Ninjago movie will consist of but we can expect the same type of action/adventure style that the cartoon series has plus throw in the humor that the show provides. Although Ninjago is a theme focused mainly to younger males, Dan and Kevin note that 30% of Cartoon Network’s audience is female so there … Continue

LEGO The Hobbit Legolas Greenleaf Polybag Included with Blu-Ray Combo

The Hobbit The Desolation of Smaug - LEGO Legolas Polybag

The One Ring has revealed the box art for The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug home video release. The Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital Combo Pack of the movie will also include the LEGO Legolas Greenleaf (30215) polybag. There’s no mentioning of which retailer will have this box set with the polybag included but signs point to Target. Last year, Target sold the same combo pack of An Unexpected Journey with a Bilbo Baggins minifigure so it seems likely that they will do the same thing for the second part of the trilogy.

LEGO Green Lantern Minifigure Coming Soon?

February 18, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There’s been much talk over the interwebs over the past day of one of the pictures our good friend Joe Meno, editor of BrickJournal, took while attending the 2014 American International Toy Fair. This picture is of a Green Lantern LED Lites and is speculation that a minifigure version of him may be coming out in a future set or polybag. This version of the highly sought character is the same as in the LEGO Batman 2 DC Super Heroes Video Game and is different from the one that was given away at the 2011 San Diego Comic Con

There have been rumors that we would probably see a Green Lantern this year but nothing legitimate has come out as of this time. On another note about the LED Lites, all of the other characters that are shown in the image all have minifigure equivalents now that the Flash is out so that might add to the speculation.

LEGO Legends of Chima Lion Legend Beast (70123) Review

February 17, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Hello Readers Of The Brick Fan. My name is Dave, I’m an AFOL from Central California. I am writing a review as a guest on Allen’s news and review website. Firstly I’d like to give a big thanks to Allen for allowing me to contribute set reviews to his blog and allow me to get a little more exposure. Now a little more about myself. I’ve been playing with regular LEGO ever since the Age of 2, and I’m 25 now. I primarily focus on MOCing in the less popular “Constraction” style of LEGO (i.e Bionicle, Hero Factory, and other figure building lines). My MOCs can be found on deviantART or Flickr. As a Reviewer, I look at sets primarily as a MOCer and from the standpoint of how a set can be utilized for its parts as well as trying to appreciate the build of the set. I like to use a basic “Pros Vs. Cons” style of reviewing. However, for the sake of writing here on Allen’s blog I will also be using his scoring system. Thank you for reading my reviews and I hope you find them helpful.
