Reasons why the Batman Lego Movie is arguably one of the best movies of 2017
- Batman blankly says the lines of “Man in the Mirror” by Michael Jackson and claims it as his own quote.
- Uses every opportunity to call Robin “Master Dick” and still manages to keep a U rating
- Patrick Stump writes and performs a heavy metal song both praising Batman and outing him for tax evasion
- Proceeds to make 3 Suicide Squad jokes/references with 2 of them calling it stupid, then proceeds to use it’s plot for twenty minutes
- Kite Man is there
- The Bat Family bond by blowing up the Eye of Sauron
- Voldemort, the Wicked Witch, Daleks, Jaws, the Gremlins and the raptors from Jurassic Park are all there for some reason and it’s never explained
- The Justice League throw a party without Batman and he gets sad
- “you’ve been union jacked”
- Mentions Iron Man to remind you that Lego also has the rights to them
- Puts in loads of pop songs to remind you that Lego bought the rights to them too
- Actually makes a reference to Dick Grayson being able to speak Romanian
- Has a genuinely amazing soundtrack
- Is great and honestly if I had the money I’d have already seen it 5 more times
Bonus: Voldemort’s actor (Ralph Fiennes) played Alfred, but they got another voice to do Voldemort.
- has zoe kravitz voice catwoman only to have her make three or four cat puns/noises and that’s it
