The three blockbuster (lol) LEGO movies are way better than they have any right to be. I love them all.
Seems like Unikitty and Wyldstyle are getting more of the spotlight this time around, which is cool because Emmett is funny but otherwise a completely boring one-note hero (which is kind of the point).

Made a crappy phPBB forum once ... once.
Looking forward to this.

Like others here, I loved the first, it really shouldn't have been that good but it was so much fun. Fingers crossed on this one.

Trailers that give away too much. Looks good though

My kid's watching cartoons, and I literally just had my fingers in my ears, singing, "LA LA LA I CANT HEAR ANY OF THIS LA LA LA," when the trailer come on about 5 minutes ago.

These are fun and look great. Glad they went with this animation style over the shit they used like 10 years ago.
Using all the licenses like in Lego Batman is unique too.

Well I have to say overall this movie is a really fun time.
It might be a bit weaker then the 1st one in parts, but as a package is a worthy follow up to it. There were some great laughs and a few unexpected surprises.
I’m not going to post any spoilers (tagged or otherwise) until some more people have had a chance to see it, but if you enjoyed the 1st you are very likely to have a good time with this one as well.
There are a few small things I could nitpick, but I’ll go into that once more people have seen it and posted impressions here.
I will say that it starts right where the 1st one ends, so if you want to see it as some sort of 1 piece epic, you can rewatch the first and then run straight to the theatre for part 2.
Can’t wait to rewatch it and pick up on some stuff I may have missed the 1st time.

Yay I’ll have at least one other person to talk about it with,
I’m not going to say anything until you post that you are back, as I don’t want to influence your opinion one way or the other.

I liked it.
It wasn't as good as the first, but it held its own. I just feel like some of the humor was forced, kind of how it was in the Lego Batman movie. But I really liked the last 20 minutes, and I'm looking forward to the Blu-ray release. I hope they can come up with a good idea for a 3rd movie, and close it out as a trilogy.
I'd give it a B.

Caught this yesterday. I thought it was awesome, and a fitting sequel. Retained the feel and format, but also managed to add to it.
I never really understood the exact relationship regarding whether the lego figures were "real" or all just a story in the kid's imagination from the first movie (they sort of swing it both ways). It bugged me before, but now I realise that it's meant to be slightly ambiguous.
It was actually juggling a LOT of themes and was surprisingly thoughtful.
