Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The creators of the Bionicle trilogy never wanted to show what a Matoran's, Toa's or Turaga's face actually looks like behind their masks. Every time a maskless character is seen, it is usually a side or back view. The small fire drones seen in Matoran Vakama's shop do seem to have Matoran faces, but they never face the camera long enough for the viewer to be able to get a good look at them. Unfortunately however, this decision to make the faces a mystery caused a critical continuity issue. When the Toa find the comatose Turaga Dume in an underground tunnel, he has his mask on - yet later Makuta Teridax is revealed to have stolen it from him months ago, and in fact, it is he who wears Dume's mask throughout the film. more
Goofs:
Continuity: When the Toa get out of the Vahki Transport in the Coliseum, Turaga Lhikan lags way behind. The next shot shows that the Toa have already raced forward. Then, in the following shot, Lhikan is seen among them, lagging slowly behind again. more

When I first saw Bionicle 2: Legends of Metru Nui, it was the best CGI movie that I have seen in a very long time. I never thought that there were even Toa before the Toa we know, and also I found out that they later turn into Turaga when they lose their power, such as when Lhikan turned into a Turaga and the Toa Metru turned into Turaga after they gave up their power. Also, I found out the answer to a mystery that has been one of my Lego goals to solve; where did the Kanohi Vahi, the Great Mask of Time come from and who created the mask?; and finally, the major villain, which I have decided to reveal, is quite possibly the greatest mystery in the movie; Makuta. How is Makuta involved in Metru Nui, why is he in this time period, and finally, how did he get involved with Turaga Dume in the first place as "sworn to protect the Matoran"? Anyways, it was a great movie in my opinion. I give it a 100 on my scale of 1 to 10.(I have heard that they are to release a third Bionicle movie in 2005.)
