THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE
If Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice left a bad taste in your mouth, Warner Bros. makes it up to you with a different kind of Batman this year. Batman has been LEGO-fied in The LEGO Batman Movie. Will Arnett (Netflix’s “Bojack Horseman”) lends his vocals to the Caped Crusader, as he did in The LEGO Movie. Only Batman has a bit of a problem. He lacks a sense of humor and he’s not one for the whole we-can-do-it-as-team thing. Being a vigilante you can only do so much on your own. Changes are happening in Gotham City and if Batman is going to save the day, he may have to LEGO of the solo act and work with others for a change.
Picking up where Phil Lord and Chris Miller left off, filmmaker Chris McKay populates this animated hit with lots of callbacks, references and other bric-a-brac (which is perfect because this LEGO movie is full of bricks!). Arriving on Blu-ray and 4K UHD, audiences get plenty of supplements. We have four animated shorts, plus a special look at the upcoming LEGO Ninjago movie; deleted scenes and trailers; and finally four featurettes (the best of which may be the one entitled “One Brick at a Time” – a short but comprehensive look at the making of the film).
