a special one, with heart of red

english teacher when he pauses the movie:

“Benny gets everyone back to bricksburg with the power of autism.”
There is nothing else beyond this point. All else is irrelevant in the face of true comedy.

Fun fact: octan has been a fake lego brand since 1992

“With the power of heterosexuality”
“With the power of misogyny”
“With the unstoppable power of autism”

i love how this video is:
talks about the main point of the video
“this one detail in the movie is so cool”
continues to talk about the main point

"after everyone hugs and congratulates themselves on ending capitalism, we are immediately met with an even bigger threat. wome-"

I think it's also really interesting how Emmett is completely oblivious to the redundancy of voting machines until he says it out loud, as if President Business is the only President there has ever been for quite some time.

I would have never thought I'd ever see "Communist Propaganda" and "Lego Movie" be in the same title of a youtube video, yet here we are.

I remember watching this in theatres, the movie hits the ground RUNNING with its comedy, the theatre was laughing out loud before our main character is even introduced.

A scene that was skipped here was the submarine-building scene. Everyone is building their own thing without cooperation, causing it to later explode.

as an autistic guy, i can confirm we become incomprehensible when allowed to engage in our hyperfixations

0:54 I genuinely thought for a few seconds that the LEGO movie was an advert for kragle/krazy glue

Barbie had 3 times the budget, 10 years of hindsight, and 1 times the Will Ferrell

the birds being not real in this film is a reference to the fact that birds aren't real irl

I wish you'd mentioned that Lord Business's cape is actually a giant red tie, like the one a businessman would wear

"A dystopia, with a carefully crafted image of a utopia" is a crazy line

When we were being taught about 1984 in highschool. At one point during analysis of the book I had an epiphany and I said out loud that the story, themes and messages in 1984 reminded me a lot of the LEGO movie. I then went back and rewatched the movie after finishing the book and it all made so much sense. The LEGO Movie is the true movie adaptation of 1984

2:47 insane tone shift

I love it when benny's like
"it's spaceshipin' time"
and spaceships over all those guys
