International Trailer for The Lego Movie

2 hours ago | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

After yesterday's brief but great trailer for The Lego Movie, and international version with new footage has gone online.  Reading over other responses to both trailers, some are pointing out that The Lego Movie is a giant toy commercial, and that's true, but it doesn't really bother me as it would for some other movies.  Perhaps it's because Lego has eased us into accepting their creations as animated entertainment through Telltale's video games, which feature animated and humorous cut scenes.  Also, even blockbuster movies that aren't based on toys are designed to sell toys.  But mostly, it's because The Lego Movie looks like tons of fun, and I have full faith in directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, a duo that delivered two of my favorite movies of the past several years: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and 21 Jump Street. Hit the jump to check out the international trailer. »

'The Lego Movie' Goes International

2 hours ago | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Yesterday we saw a domestic trailer and poster for Warner's The Lego Movie and now the international division offers up an trailer of their own. I only watched a sampling of the first one, but this one is different as I'm not hearing Morgan Freeman's voice. I guess this movie could be fun, but I'm worried they'll have to stick so close to a PG-rating so as not to diminish Lego's brand status that it will lack any measure of comedic bite. The joke with Batman saying sometimes he works in "very, very dark grey" just isn't even worth a chuckle let alone an actual laugh. The Lego Movie follows Emmet (voiced by Chris Pratt), an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average Lego mini-figure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic »

'The Lego Movie' Trailer Builds Excitement for New Kind of Toy Story

5 hours ago | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

It's easy to be naturally skeptical of a movie based on a childhood toy, but now that "The Lego Movie" trailer has been unveiled, we're eating our words just a little bit.

Our hero is Emmett, a little yellow Lego man voiced by the hilarious Chris Pratt of "Parks and Recreation" and the upcoming "Guardians of the Galaxy." In a case of vastly mistaken identity, Lego leader Vitruvius, voiced by Morgan Freeman, calls on Emmett to save the Lego universe from Will Ferrell's President Business. (Vitruvius looks awfully like a religious figure, with a long flowing beard and robes.)

Emmett doesn't know what he's doing, but luckily there are plenty of superheroes to step in, like Batman, Wonder Woman, and even a Ninja Turtle or two. Then there are the rogue characters that seem pretty tantalizing, like Nick Offerman's weird pirate Metalbeard, Liam Neeson as the president's tough right-hand man, »

New Poster for The Lego Movie

6 hours ago | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Teaser poster for The Lego Movie

Following on from the awesome trailer, we have the first poster for The Lego Movie, and while it doesn't even hint at the massive cast of characters we will see in the movie (we have already seen Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and 1/4th of the Teenage Muntant Ninja Turtles. Who else does Warner Bros. have up it's sleeve?), it does a good job of whetting appetites until 2014.

Emmet (Chris Pratt) is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which he is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared. Will Ferrell, Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson, Will Arnett, Elizabeth Banks, Nick Offerman and Alison Brie join Chris Pratt to form the cast of the first-ever full length theatrical Lego movie, »

The Lego Movie Trailer Has Arrived Online

7 hours ago | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

The bad news about the first trailer for The Lego Movie is that the title screen suggests it's no longer called "The Piece Of Resistance". The good news is that it includes Superman, Batman, Michelangelo (the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle and also the painter), Abraham Lincoln (fingers crossed for a Daniel Day-Lewis voice cameo) and many more.The film sees Chris Pratt voice Emmett, an ordinary figure mistaken for the great Master Builder and recruited to prevent an evil tyrant from gluing the Lego universe together. He'll have help from Morgan Freeman's Vitruvius, Will Arnett's Batman and encounter characters voiced by Elizabeth Banks, Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson, Alison Brie and Nick Offerman.The Lego Movie is due in cinemas on February 14, 2014. It's directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the guys behind Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and then the live-action 21 Jump Street. We're hoping that this »

'The Lego Movie' teaser has Batman, Ninja Turtles and Morgan Freeman

11 hours ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

Finally, one movie is doing what all of the other can't seem to. Batman and Superman will be appearing in the same film. That's not all, though. You can also count Wonder Woman, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the 2002 NBA All-Stars in for the action.

What could possibly bring all of these people and characters together, for one movie? Legos, of course. That's right, "The Lego Movie" is real and it's coming to theaters February 7, 2014. In addition to an impressive list of characters, the CGI movie comes with a great voice cast. 

Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Morgan Freeman, Nick Offerman, Liam Neeson, Alison Brie, Will Ferrell and Charlie Day all have roles in the movie. The most impressive credit in the movie goes to Will Arnett, though. Arnett will provide a voice to Batman, in what may be the best casting ever.

Superman & Batman In…’The Lego Movie’ Official Teaser Trailer

12 hours ago | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Justice League may be a bit of a way off, but who cares when Warner Bros. have included both Superman and Batman in The Lego Movie. If you were worried that this was going to be merely a huge commercial for the awesome building bricks, then you need to think again my friend, as Warner Bros. have assembled a perfect team and cast to bring this comedy to life. The directing duo behind Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and 21 Jump Street, Chris Miller and Phil Lord, are at the helm, while Chris McKay is co-directing. McKay certainly has experience with comedic toys thanks to his work on Robot Chicken. I absolutely love the animation style Warner Bros. have decided to go with.

If that trio weren’t enough, the voice cast is also impressive. Chris Pratt takes the lead as reluctant hero Emmet, who must face up against the »

Trailer for ‘The Lego Movie’

16 hours ago | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Transformers and Battleship were just the beginning. The latest Hollywood trend of turning toys into movies continues with The Lego Movie. But before you start crying out cursing Hollywood for ruining your childhood, you might want to take a look at the official trailer, which was just released by Warner Bros.

The film is written and directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who in case you don’t know, are the minds that brought us Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and 21 Jump Street (both pretty good movies). The movie also has Chris Pratt from Parks and Recreation and future star of Guardians of the Galaxy in the title role, and judging from the trailer, he does a very funny job. Other voice talent for the movie includes Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Alison Brie, Nick Offerman, Morgan Freeman and Will Arnett as Batman.

'The Lego® Movie' Trailer: Will Ferrell, Charlie Day & More Assemble

16 hours ago | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

Hey if a bunch of movies based on "The Transformers" toys can make over $2.6 billion, why wouldn't every toy we've ever played with try to have their way with our wallets at the box office?

In some of the most overt-product placement since the kids in the "90210" reboot drank all of that Dr. Pepper, "The Lego® Movie" will arrive in theaters February 7, 2014. Written by the "21 Jump Street"/"Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" team of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, "'The Lego® Movie" looks like it will have a plot similar to "The Muppets" and "Wreck-it Ralph" where we follow one hero in a cool world, this one filled with Legos.

Given that Warner Bros. owns DC Comics and its related heroes, it's no surprise that the likes of Batman and Superman show up in this brand new teaser trailer. There's a new poster, too:

Trailer for The Lego Movie - Must Watch

16 hours ago | www.themoviebit.com | See recent TheMovieBit news »

So the first trailer for The Lego Movie has fianlly dropped, and............well, best you watch it for yourself. This looks incredible, with an absolutely mind blowing cast of characters (I can't believe this the first time we will see Superman and Batman on screen together). I love how the animation style actually looks like a movie made of lego, and the humour is brilliant. It comes from Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and 21 Jump Street directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, so we know they can bring the funny. There is also quite a voice cast assembled (heh...) for this, with Chris Pratt, as an ordinary mini figure called upon to save the lego world, rubbing shoulders with Morgan Freeman (as a god-like figure, naturally), Will Ferrell, Alison Brie, Liam Neeson, Will Arnett, Nick Offerman (best known as Ron Swanson, the best thing about t.v. show Parks and Recreation), and Elizabeth Banks. »

Nick Offerman is 'Axe Cop,' Fox officially confirms

17 hours ago | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Though several trailers for Fox's upcoming animated comedy "Axe Cop" have been shown using his voice for the title character, the network is only now officially confirming that Nick Offerman is indeed the axe-wielding lawman.

TV Guide reports that Offerman, who is also an executive producer on the show, was unable to receive credit due to his contractual obligations to NBC's "Parks and Recreation" -- until now.

Fox was set to credit "Axe Cop" for the voice of Axe Cop, but they can luckily scrap that silly idea. "We had this huge game play," Animation Domination High-Def head Nick Weidenfeld says. "But now we can finally talk about Nick being involved. I wouldn't have made the show if it hadn't been for him. He's so integral and important to the 'Axe Cop' story."

Weidenfeld says that it was Offerman who e-mailed him about the "Axe Cop" comic book, »

Warner Bros. has released the first exciting trailer for The Lego Movie, which is being directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. This is the same talented team that brought us 21 Jump Street and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, and it looks like they are doing an amazing job with this Lego movie. I love what I'm seeing in the trailer. The style they chose to bring Lego to life is exactly what it needs to be.

The film features the voices of Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Morgan Freeman, Will Ferrell, Liam Neeson, Nick OffermanAlison Brie, and more. The trailer also features some of the Lego characters we'll be seeing in the film such as Batman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, NBA stars, and lots of other great characters. This could be an epic movie.
