The Live-Action/Animated LEGO Movie is Coming 2014

How’s this for under-the-radar weekend news: Warner Bros. is moving ahead having its live-action/animation hybrid LEGO movie, which will hit screens in 2014. According to Variety, the pic will probably be made up of eighty percent animation, being handled by Animal Logic, the Aussie-based vfx house behind Happy Foot and Legend in the Parents: The Owls of Ga’Hoole, that may mean superbly made and realistic… LEGO blocks showed up at existence? Particulars are scarce round the project for the moment, but Variety runs lower the principals involved behind the curtain: “Lego” has existed development at Warner Bros. since 2008, when the studio began coping with the toymaker around the family comedy good popular fundamentals with Serta Lin and Roy Lee creating as well as the writing team of Serta and Kevin Hageman attracted onto pen the script. This Season, Warners triggered the “Cloudy Getting possible of Meatballs” team of Phil Our god and Christopher Burns to produce and direct… Warners recently triggered Chris McKay, director of Adult Frolic in the water’s stop-motion animation/comedy “Robot Chicken,” for everybody as co-director on “Lego” underneath the almighty and Burns. Which means that although, yes, a LEGO movie sounds patently absurd — Battleship stood a vague real-world set-up, and Ouija conjures spooky supernatural goings-on, in minimum — you might relaxation easy knowning that people behind the wonderful Cloudy getting possible of Meatballs as well as the amusing popular culture-skewering Robot Chicken are in work. Intriguingly enough, Our god and Burns (presently concentrating on 21 Jump Street) formerly known for their LEGO movie as happening “in a global… entirely built of LEGO” which will appear like “super charged stop-motion.” However, you tell me. We’ve got Candyland, Battleship — heck, why not an Uno action epic? The gritty Yahtzee crime thriller? Is LEGO picture any longer promising in comparison to relaxation in the real (or imagined/inevitable) game/toy adaptations already coming?
