What Makes Lego Batman The Most Faithful Batman 

Joker may be crazy enough to take him on, but the IRS? No, thank you!

Monopoly encourages tax evasion now, in their ads.

Don't worry, his roommate Bruce Wayne pays for him

That's why he's so rich.

I just seen the movie not to long ago with my little brother. He quote this line all the time. Which make sense since it is fire.

He says dick not sick

The typical nickname for richards is Dick.

He says dick not sick

He says dick not sick

It would be to my understanding that Bruce Wayne says the name "dick" as opposed to "sick."

Bruh

What could be more effective?

"Dad, you sound like batman"

@@lasercraft32 **gasp**

This so much. Its what alot of studios that make live-adaptions of animes/games fail to understand. Some things just dont translate super well to live action.

fr look at spiderverse

Disney needs to hear this

@@_patrycj_ so sad to think the entity that paved the way for animation respects it so little

@@PuddleStewsay that to Disney lol

So lego batman is just composite batman

@@Man_Aslume pretty much, imagine like a multiverse but as person but that’s canonically EVERY famous Lego character in short

@@DaRealMikeyBruh.5o17 nothing could stop them

Except the Batman Who Laughs

​@saywhatnow2173 that also is part of this composite Batman.

You forgot tax evader

And ignorer of orphans until he adopts one because of said ignoring

​@@TheyCallMeDio eh they already said billionaire

@@TheyCallMeDio not even joker fucks with the IRS

​@@magicianslucky602 that's what makes batman batman 🗿

It's a shame that we won't get any more LEGO movies from Warner Bros. This LEGO Cinematic Universe is probably the only shared Universe I would have ate up that wasn't Marvel.

I mean, Lego Dimensions had all those characters minus Godzilla

​@DisneyVillainsFan 16 wait, why? I'm not updated on the status of LEGO movies

@@cameronweaver2013 because discovery bought Warner brothers

Absolutly insane that both these movies turned out to be as genuinely good as they did. Like they're movies made out of fucking LEGOS and they're genuinely incredible movies.

Cinema Therapy did one as well

Don't miss the Cinema Wins essay "Everything Great About the LEGO Batman Movie," either!

Wow 1.5k likes, but I mean, I stand by my statement.

I don't love Spider-Man 2018, it's okay imo, the combat is a carbon copy of Arkham but worse, the story is weak, QTE all over, but sure swinging around is really fun(even if it has way too much handholding) and it has cool graphics. I don't get how it pays homage to several Spider-Man stories, like Arkham Asylum did for Batman, if you think borrowing then butchering stories is paying homage then idk what to tell you, plus the really uninspiring enemies/villain and how similar it felt to the Arkham games, if I didn't know Insomniac I'd thought the game was made by Rocksteady ex-pats.

@@MaxIronsThird 🤓

@Tootsy7 I don’t get why so many people are suddenly hating on Spider-Man PS4, it’s pretty much what Arkham Knight should’ve been IMO (aside from the stuff that’s distinctly Spider-Man and not Batman).

​@@legometaworld2728 cause these ppl treat it like as if there were no good solo spiderman games existed before that and Spiderman'18 single-handedly made spiderman great. Web of shadows / Shattered dimensions / ultimate spiderman were so much better than Spiderman'18 in terms of story and execution and marvel games under Activision were good but are treated like they don't exist and these guys give high praise to insomniac spiderman like the next coming of christ when it's just mid or average.

@@legometaworld2728 Arkham Asylum/City >> Spiderman 2018/Arkham Knight

Yes, yes, yes. I thought part of the point of them sticking kid sidekicks into superhero stories was to, in a sense, put the fans in the stories they love so much. Like, "Wow! I get to fight crime and save the day, too!"

JESUS CHRIST, YES. It is like Richard "Dick" Grayson is Jason Todd, who i like very much, but Dick is literally the golden boy of DC. There has been multiversal confirmation that any universe without Dick is 200% darker. The family depends 45% on him, 45% on Alfred, 10% extra that they share between them, and the last 10% is divide with Bruce and the other kids not trying to kill each other. Dick is a amazing human being, at a level that leaves even Superman behind, but the live action versions treat him like some fucking edgelord.

Is it just me or is the whole "special rivalry" part of the movie seem really... really G A Y? Like, I was surprise Joker and Batman didn't kiss and get married at the end.

U mean Gotham? But isn't that one show , what about the other?

"Dark brooding and edgy" Very nice lego 2 reference

@@Killerbee4712 That was an accident lol-when was that said in the movie? I watched it like once and don't remember much.

@@ob2kenobi388 Oh lmfaoo, "dark brooding and edgy" is the theme lego 2 tries to mock. Remember how duoplo takes over and the lego people have to like escape into an apocolypse world, everyone's acting edgy and dark and manly and emmet's like too innocent?

Also the joke of "Did you make those last ones up?"

@@jahrusalem3658honestly cause the condiment one was where they lost me, but they were right. It was worth the google.

@@shanel4294 condiment king was a playable character in LEGO Batman the video game 3 Beyond Gotham or whatever it's called, which came out before the movie I believe. That's the only place I've seen him before but I'm not a big Batman fan, just a big lego fan.

@@Charliesbowtie Ah a fellow fan of duplos

Exactely my thoughts, its so goofy and hilarious while also having a serious side that's hidden beneath the sarcasm, kinda like real life, where people joke about their problems and emotions, but obviously not batman he doesnt feel any emotions but rage

Mine is Mask of the Phantasm but this one is up there

"The Most Faithful Batman adaptation ever". WTF? Really. What the even fuck? Lego Batman is not even close to being a most faithful Batman adaptation ever. It is just a parody of Batman, nothing more, nothing less. Check Batman Animated Series if you need more faithful Batman adaptation.

@@Qaosbringer Parodies can be faithful. Look at DBZ Abridged

To be honest .. I don't like the Nolan Trilogy that much. Christian Bale was neither a good Bruce Wayne, too much American Psycho Vibes, nor a good Batman . He was okay in Begins, especially with Scarecrow. The Dark Knight was carried by Heath, and after Batman gunning himself through half the city in his tank/bike I thouhgt thats no Batman .. Had no chemistry with the worst Catwomen after Hale Berry and Mumbles just pissed me off ..

I hope you’re lying about this, because if it was true then we must protest.

Fuck, we need that movie

It's genuinely amazing that there hasn't been a sequel

Why did they not do the sequel?

I love them as friends so sick of them being "rivals" or not getting along in live action

Damn I was 18 and I loved it but I also had the first Lego sets like 17 years ago

@Blue Azure Wow, I'm 18 right now lol. First year of uni. So you'd be 24 now right?

​@@gazem_3211 you should totally rewatch it. It was meant for audiences of all ages! It's still holds up super well

lol @ maybe

I hate the fact you made me realize the movie released 6 years ago.

Cartoon logic makes that way easier to do Also not being in the same room as Zach Snyder

BTAS maybe?

@@BJGvideos To my memory not really but again there's a lot that happens there

Well those penguins he used to shield himself from Poison Ivy probably died. (I’m just gonna imagine they were evil penguins tho 🐧 🔪)

@@BJGvideosBTAS Batman has killed at least one person. Sort of. There’s an episode of Justice League where Deadman possesses Batman’s body to shoot an assassin that was trying to kill one of the JL members, and while the shot hits a non-lethal body part, it throws the person into some exposed wiring and electrocutes him to death. Even though Deadman was controlling Batman’s body, Batman was VERY upset about the incident.

Michael Cera was Robin??? Holy shit he was way more vibrant than I thought he'd be

Most likely an unpopular opinion but this movie is proof why Will Arnett should be cast as Shadow in Sonic 3

@@branegrumps9247 Or the guy in sonic adventures fandub, that guy works too.

@@ekamsingh1640 oh Ryan? I mean probably, if he's a voice actor

I watched it when it came to theaters with a friend and it was the best experience ever

have you seen the animated series?

@@alchemistofsteel8099 I've watched batman beyond and a few others but I see ur point

Goes to show what having a touch of character in you instead of always being dark and broody does huh?

"children can be cruel"

​@@Anarqismo😮 67 rff😂

Who always pays his taxes? NOT BATMAAAN!

Yeah, and the Ninjago movie wasn’t really faithful to the actual series that I enjoyed when I was in elementary.

Tbh all of the movies are better than Lego Movie 2 imo.

@@yams8445 I'd say Lego Movie 2 was better than Ninjago because that movie was not at all faithful to the actual show, practically spitting in the fans' faces at some points. At least The Lego Movie 2 had fun worldbuilding and Rex.

@@volt42rein my opinion the lego ninjago movies really good on its own. If it was cannon to ninjago it would have been hard for people unfamiliar with the show to understand whats going on, making the target audience pretty small. I also enjoyed seeing a different take on ninjago and for the most part I loved their redesigns. AND! without it we wouldn't have gotten the MASTERPEICE that is the oni trilogy

⁠@@coolboy2256It's crazy how the Ninjago Movie (which was kinda mediocre, in my opinion) indirectly led to two of the greatest Ninjago seasons of all time.

"The Most Faithful Batman adaptation ever". WTF? Really. What the even fuck? Lego Batman is not even close to being a most faithful Batman adaptation ever. It is just a parody of Batman, nothing more, nothing less. Check Batman Animated Series if you need more faithful Batman adaptation.

@@Qaosbringer The best parody comes from a deep love of whatever is being parodied. Yes, he's a parody but in this parody they make the single most complete conceptualization of the character. TAS is phenomenal and carrying basically that batman into justice league animated is so good. However, it only really touches on an aspect of a character that's almost a century old. It doesn't acknowledge how goofy the silly man in a bat costume can be, it doesn't take him to the depths of edge that he's descended into, it is more fantastical than the Nolan films but more grounded than the Adam west series. Kevin Conroy is and always will be the voice of batman in my mind because of those shows. TAS is an absolute timeless classic with many episodes that blow the Lego batman movie utterly out of the water in terms of quality. Lego batman came to be only because the creators clearly loved this character in his entirety and endeavored to take every aspect of that character into their adaptation. And, frankly, this is one of the few realms this works: a ridiculous world where a multitudinous batman fits right in. Lego batman is less a character in his own right and more a brutal condemnation of a few limited takes on the character (batman always wins, batman always works alone, batman is so dark and edgy, batman can't ever grow as a character) but he's also an incredible love letter at the same time. A take on this character that encapsulates more than any other take I've seen and embraces everything about him that multiple generations of people have come to love. So I'll absolutely agree that TAS is a much better work of art but Lego batman is the most faithful adaptation.

I mean where else can you see Batman stealing the hyperdrive from the Millennium Falcon 😂😂

lol

But I still think it's funny that they do that. I mean where else can you get a movie where Joker teams up with Voldemort, Godzilla, Sauron, Wicked Witch of the West, King Kong and others in beating Batman. As just a simple throwaway joke, it absolutely works

I think he was in the intro. Kind of a blink-and-you'll-miss-it. But they did make a minifigure for him on the toy side.
