Lego Movie Details
So, we already had a chance to hear that Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller are in charge for directing Warner Bros’ Lego movie, which is kind of perfect choice, since they make such a good and creative team together.
And, we also know that they “impressed both WB and Lego execs”, or, at least, that was a rumor couple of days ago.
But, today we’re here to share some interesting details that Phil Lord revealed in an interview for Collider.
“I don’t know how we’re exactly going to execute it, but I would say the vast majority of the film takes place in an immersive all-Lego environment.” – Lord said, and continued: “So it’s going to star mini-figs and we’ve created these really cool characters and a really nice character story between these mini-figs. And it’s going to take place in a universe that’s made entirely out of Lego to the point where if there’s water or clouds or like a big explosion, that will be made out of animated Legos.
And our goal was to make it look like a super charged stop-motion. Something like if Michael Bay kidnapped Henry Selick to make a movie for him. We found a way to incorporate all of those worlds into having one uber world basically so that we can include all those kind of classic set pieces that you’re used to seeing. We always sparked to the idea that you could make a super large scale brick film. Have you seen those brick films online?
