It just means when you get people who know the material well, they're gonna make it a great film if they know what to do with it. It doesn't mean DC has to sell to Disney, it doesn't mean critics are biased against DC. This movie has such a stronger emotional impact than anything the DC cinematic universe has done with its last three films. It also makes me mad, because the film proves that WB is just sitting on a character's pile of good material to work with, and they don't know what to do with them in their real films. Seriously this movie had a smile on my face except for the parts when it really hit home for me. And it produces a fantastic message for kids, as well as a touching tribute to fans of Batman. It utilizes it's imagination of Legos to it's potential. It hits all the emotional beats just right with all of its themes. The special relationship Batman has with the Joker. His isolation and loneliness, his fear of becoming part of a family again. The focus of the film actually deals with to me a critical factor of Batman.

But In other words, the script is a hilarious tribute to arguably one of the greatest superheroes of all time, and surprisingly the most emotional. You almost miss too much because they cram so many funny nod ons and jokes you wish they had spread em out a little bit. They use it to their advantage here, they praise and mock everything great, and everything terrible Batman has gone through over the years. It sounds like I'm talking about fan service because yes, it is most of the time.

I swear there was almost a reference to everything you remember about him, from Detective Comics all the way to Batfleck. In a similar fashion, this movie encompassed everything you know about Batman, and I mean everything. We thought to ourselves a Lego movie would never work, it sounds like the ultimate marketing sham Hollywood could ever put out to sell toys, but it became one my favorite animated films of all time why? The first movie blew me away because it not only worked as a story, but it encompassed everything a fan of Lego remembers. It has the humor, the action, the animation, and surprisingly again the heart. Just like the movie before it, the LEGO Batman movie surprises yet again with a fun piece of imaginative work. Sorry fans but this blew all 3 of the cinematic universe movies out of the freaking water. This is the best theatrical film based on DC property that WB has put out in years.
