EVERYTHING IS STILL AWESOME!

The LEGO® Movie 2: The Second Part

Burbank, CA, March 19 – It’s time to go where no brick has gone before when “The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part” arrives on 4K UHD Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack, DVD Special Edition and Digital. The much-anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed, global box office phenomenon that started it all, “The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part” reunites the heroes of Bricksburg in an all-new action-packed adventure to save their beloved city.

Reprising their starring roles from the first film are Chris Pratt (“Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Jurassic World”) as Emmet; Elizabeth Banks (“The Hunger Games” movies, “Love & Mercy”) as Lucy, aka Wyldstyle; Will Arnett (“The LEGO® Batman Movies,” TV’s “Arrested Development”) as LEGO Batman; Alison Brie (TV’s “GLOW,” TV’s “Community”) as Unikitty; Nick Offerman (“Fargo,” TV’s “Parks and Recreation”) as MetalBeard; and Charlie Day (the “Horrible Bosses” movies, TV’s “It’s Always Sunny in Philadephia”) as Benny. They are joined by Tiffany Haddish (“Girls Trip,” “Keanu”) and Stephanie Beatriz (“Short Term 12,” TV’s “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”) as new characters Queen Watevra Wa’Nabi and General Mayhem, respectively, and Maya Rudolph (“Bridesmaids,” TV’s “Big Mouth”), as Mom.

“The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part” was directed by Mike Mitchell (“Shrek Ever After,” “Trolls,” “Sky High”) and produced by Dan Lin, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller and Roy Lee, the team behind the LEGO film franchise since “The LEGO Movie,” and Jinko Gotoh. The screenplay was written by Lord and Miller, the Oscar-winning producers of “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” from a story by Lord, Miller and Matthew Fogel, based on LEGO Construction Toys. Trisha Gum was the animation director.

SYNOPSIS

It’s been five years since everything was awesome and the citizens are now facing a huge new threat: LEGO DUPLO® invaders from outer space, wrecking everything faster than it can be rebuilt. The battle to defeat the invaders and restore harmony to the LEGO universe will take Emmet (Chris Pratt), Lucy (Elizabeth Banks), Batman (Will Arnett) and their friends to far away, unexplored worlds, including a galaxy filled with fantastic planets, strange characters, and catchy new songs. It will test their courage, creativity and Master Building skills, and reveal just how special they really are. Read the entire PRESS RELEASE.

REVIEW

The other day we received The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part from Warner Brothers and soon after its arrival we called our in house critiques to invite them over. Our twin grandchildren were thrilled to have the opportunity for a private viewing of the newest release with Poppa and GiGi. After all, they are huge fans of movie night popcorn and anything Lego. They hurried over and after the popcorn was popped we all settled in our seats for what promised to be a fun time.

Once again, I must compliment Warner Brothers’ animation team on a great ensemble of characters and the visually stunning color and graphics in this release. As viewing veterans of “LEGO”, the twins reacted with lots of laughter and giggles thanks to the funny dialogue that the characters deliver with perfect timing. It’s always sweet music to our ears to hear their joy. Enamored they demanded an encore performance so we grabbed another bag of popcorn and hit play once again.

We are sure that this title, like its predecessor, will see lots of time in our DVD player. But that’s okay! We all enjoyed this movie and the memorable movie night we had watching it. Thanks to its entertaining script and excellent animation, we believe that this title offers great entertainment value for any Lego lover and look forward to watching it again in the future.

A DECADES-OLD BATTLE RESURFACES
AS WARNER BROS. HOME ENTERTAINMENT AND THE LEGO GROUP RELEASE

“Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the DVD I am reviewing in this post. However, the opinions I share are my own.”

LEGO^® NINJAGO™ Masters of Spinjitzu: Season 7

Featuring All 10 Action-Packed Season Seven Episodes from Cartoon Network’s Hit Animated Series Ahead of Upcoming LEGO NINJAGO Theatrical Movie

BURBANK, CA (June 22, 2017) – At the ruins of the Monastery of Spinjitzu, a mysterious adventure begins as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment and The LEGO Group release the complete seventh season of the popular Cartoon Network animated series, LEGO NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu: Season 7. In this exciting NINJAGO season, Kai and Nya finally learn the truth about their long-lost parents, Master-in-Training Lloyd tries to fill in for a weakened Wu and an all-new Samurai X returns.

The LEGO NINJAGO Masters of Spinjitzu: Season 7 two DVD set has a list price of $18.94 but is currently available for $11.99 on Amazon, $12.96 from Walmart, $12.99 at Target and $13.70 on eBay. This release includes all 10 action-packed episodes as the Ninja encounter new enemies, Krux and Acronix.

It is shortly after the Day of the Departed and all has returned to normal in Ninjago. While the Ninjas are back at the museum cleaning up the mess they left behind, Master Wu waits alone at his old monastery. Soon, there is a flash of light and a stranger mysteriously appears who turns out to be an old enemy. Wu and the stranger engage in an epic battle which we soon learn is the finale of a fight that began forty years ago between the Elemental Masters and the Hands of Time.

Who are the Hands of Time? Krux and Acronix, two fallen Elemental Masters who could once control time itself before Wu and Garmadon barely managed to strip them of their time-shifting powers and transfer them into four-time blades! Wu and Garmadon sent the Blades into a temporal vortex and Krux and Acronix followed, leading our heroes to think the threat was over in Season 7 of LEGO NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu.

LEGO NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu – Season 7 on DVD includes ten 22-minute episodes:

The Hands of Time
The Hatching
A Time of Traitors
Scavengers
A Line in the Sand
The Attack
Secrets Discovered
Pause and Effect
Out of the Fire and Into the Boiling Sea
Lost in Time

Master Wu Brings It!
in Season 7 of LEGO NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu

Much to our grandchildren’s euphoria, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided us with a copy of LEGO NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu Season 7. With great anticipation and excitement, we started disc 1, the grandkids’ enthusiasm was palpable as the first episode began. We all spent the afternoon watching the season from beginning to end together. The kids educated us on the great characters names and their special abilities to whoop Lego butt! Personally, I really enjoyed the graphics and subtle humor sprinkled throughout this captivating form of art. The very clear and understandable dialogue of the characters made viewing very enjoyable and was much appreciated.

The strong storyline and the well-executed plot of each episode made for an entertaining afternoon. We all enjoyed the steady pace and vivid imagery that we found consistent throughout. When we asked the opinion of the grandchildren on a scale of 1 to 10 explaining that 1 was poor and 10 was outstanding. They gave it an even 20! Which they explained meant that it was double outstanding. They will be watching these DVDs plus the several other Lego themed DVD’s that we have over and over while they wait on Season 8. We never tire of the great Lego characters and their awesome adventures.

Have Fun and Unwind With LEGO® Scooby-Doo!: Blowout Beach Bash

July 28, 2017 By Paula 1 Comment

Scooby-Doo! and his pals Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy are no strangers to solving spooky mysteries filled with all types of ghouls and goblins. This time is no different. As Scooby-Doo! and his friends are on their way to Blowout Beach for a real swinging beach party in the Mystery Machine, the Ghost Pirates threaten to ruin the gang’s good vibes. It is up to Scooby and the gang to get the party back on track, without missing a beat.

LEGO Scooby-Doo!: Blowout Beach Bash from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is a fun new direct-to-DVD computer-animated comedy, mildly spooky, mystery film. Scooby, Shaggy, Velma, Fred, and Daphne get LEGO-ized for this animated mystery. Using the familiar voices of the Mystery Gang actors, it’s a seamless transition from animated characters to the little toy mini-figures. Even with the limitations of the Lego bricks and mini-figures, the animators have managed to provide some suspense and frights. Although this feature includes a wild roller coaster ride, almost scary-looking ghosts that glow, crashes, some swordplay, and chases this production is still within the limits of mild cartoon action and fine for those who understand the difference between pretend and real.

LEGO^®Scooby-Doo!: Blowout Beach Bash! features a veteran voice cast: Frank Welker (Be Cool Scooby-Doo!), Grey Griffin (Be Cool Scooby-Doo!), Kate Micucci (Be Cool Scooby-Doo!) and Matthew Lillard (Be Cool Scooby-Doo!). The film was executive produced by Sam Register (Teen Titans Go!), Jill Wilfert (The LEGO^® Batman Movie), Robert Fewkes (LEGO^® DC Super Hero Girls), Jason Cosler (LEGO^® DC Comics Super Heroes: Gotham City Breakout) and directed by Ethan Spaulding (Justice League: Throne of Atlantis) from a script written by Emily Brundige (Teen Titans Go!) and Aaron Preacher (Comedy Bang Bang). Rick Morales (LEGO^®Scooby-Doo!: Haunted Hollywood) serves as producer.

This all-new original movie LEGO^®Scooby-Doo!: Blowout Beach Bash is available on DVD, Blu-Ray combo pack, and digital HD.
