Upcoming LEGO movie?

[horsepastriesa]

So apparently there's going to be a LEGO movie. And it's gonna have...voice actors. LEGO games are well known for their silent slapstick, and it's not very often that there's actual speaking in the games. Usually it's just grunts or babbling. The only time I can think of where they speak in words is LEGO Island, and the voices are just...bleugh. Do they speak in that Cartoon Network show that's going on now?

Also, Will Arnett plays Batman

They've had LEGO movies for a while now, though they're mostly short films.

Also, they've started talking in the games since LEGO Batman 2.

As for how I feel about this... can't be as messy a film adaptation as Battleship.

Battleship was just an opportunity to have a movie about a submarine, wasn't it? It was never going to have anything at all to do with the game (except its branding).

Thus why it fails as an adaptation.

Natch. But was it ever actually an adaptation at all?

Personally, I'm looking forward to Lego:Lord of the Rings, even though it's basically going to be an interactive adaptation of the films with the original voice acting.

I'm honestly surprised there hasn't been a FarmVille movie yet.

I actually kind of like the humor Lego puts out in their productions, even with voice acting (e.g. The Empire Strikes Out, or at least the last five minutes of it that I saw). I hope this is good, whatever it is.

I was worried about the voice acting in Lego Batman 2 but it was well done and didn't take away any of the charm from the previous games.
