Plot[edit]

Following the events of the first film, Finn's sister Bianca has been invited to share their father's Lego collection; in the LEGO universe, this is represented by the arrival of Duplo aliens. Emmet Brickowski builds the aliens a heart as a token of friendship but one eats it and playfully demands more. Lucy and the Master Builders interprets this as an attack and retaliate, and the ensuing battle destroys Bricksburg. Emmet tries to assure Lucy that 'Everything can still be awesome.'

Five years later, Bianca has taken some of Finn's LEGO creations and other toys to play with.^[9] In the LEGO universe, the Duplo army's invasions have turned Bricksburg into the post-apocalyptic wasteland Apocalypseburg, hardening its citizens. However, Emmet remains upbeat and wants to move into a dream home with Lucy, who tells Emmet he needs to adapt to their new harsher world. Emmet himself is also troubled by visions of an impending cataclysm dubbed as 'Armamageddon'. Soon, a mini-doll named General Mayhem arrives and proclaims that Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi of the Systar System wants to marry Apocalypseburg’s leader. Mayhem's forces capture Batman, Lucy, Benny, MetalBeard, and Unikitty after they argued who was the leader. They are taken to the Systar System, where Batman eventually agrees to marry Wa'Nabi, while the others are being tempted to remain, which only Lucy resists.

In pursuit, Emmet converts his house into a spaceship and travels through 'the Stairgate' – out of the basement – and is saved from an asteroid field by rugged adventurer Rex Dangervest. Emmet begins to toughen up by mimicking Rex, hoping to impress Lucy. Lucy and her friends are taken to a spa; while seeing them being 'brainwashed', she escapes to find Emmet. Meanwhile, Rex and Emmet evade Wa'Nabi's forces and find Lucy. Deducing that the wedding is a front for Armamageddon, Emmet devises a rescue plan: Lucy will switch off the music defending the Space Temple where the wedding will take place, and Emmet will destroy the reception cake, encased in a temple, to stop the wedding. As Lucy fights Mayhem, she learns the Systar System never meant to antagonize Apocalypseburg, but merely failed to communicate their desire to coexist in peace – in the real world, Bianca simply wants Finn to play with her. They also hope that the wedding to bring about peace. She also discovers that Queen Watevra Wa'Nabi's original form is the heart Emmet gave the aliens and her friends are not brainwashed, but enjoying the Systar System. Realizing Rex has sinister motives, Lucy tries to stop Emmet and show who she really is, but Emmet doesn’t believe her and destroys the temple.

In the real world, Emmet's destruction is carried out by Finn angrily destroying Bianca's LEGO temple wedding cake. Emmet realises his mistake but is seized by Rex, knocking Lucy onto a shelf. Aboard his ship, Rex reveals that he is an embittered version of Emmet from the future; abandoned for years underneath a nearby clothes dryer after crashing in the asteroid field, he became Rex – 'Radical Emmet Xtreme' – and built a remote time machine to save Emmet. As revenge for being neglected while the other toys were played with, Rex has tricked his past self into bringing about Armamageddon. When asked what Armamageddon really is, Rex explains what is happening in the real world right now; Bianca and Finn’s mother halts their bickering and asks them to put away their LEGO sets, representing Armamageddon (as in 'Our momma gets in'). Rex then throws Emmet under the dryer where he had been abandoned to make him become himself after Emmet refuses to give up on his friends. Everything in the LEGO universe begins to crumble and fall into the dark hole of the Bin of Storajj, represented by Finn and Bianca taking their creations apart and putting them in storage bins. Being unable to accept that this is the end, Lucy urges everyone to sing 'Everything's Not Awesome', which Finn hears and then rebuilds the heart for Bianca, thus reviving Wa-Nabi and inadvertently restores the LEGO universe, allowing Lucy to rally the others into escaping from the storage bin in various spacecraft to save Emmet and stop Rex. Emmet and Lucy overpower Rex and sabotage his time machine with a heart bomb. Rex redeems himself as he and his timeline fade from existence when Emmet refuses to be like him, and Emmet and Lucy reconcile.

In the real world, Finn and Bianca's mom has a change of heart upon seeing them reconciled and watches them play with their LEGO creations together. The LEGO universe is transformed into a mishmash of the restored Bricksburg and the Systar System called the peaceful 'Syspocalypstar'. Emmet's dream house is rebuilt and gets an original album of 'Everything Is Awesome', revealing Lucy on the album, much to his surprise.

Development[edit]

On February 3, 2014, Jared Stern was hired to write the sequel, along with Michelle Morgan.^[24] On March 12, 2014, Deadline reported that animation co-director Chris McKay would direct the sequel with Phil Lord and Christopher Miller as producers.^[25] On April 10, 2014, it was reported that McKay wanted to have more women in the sequel than men.^[26] On July 28, 2014, it was reported that Chris Pratt wanted to reprise his role as Emmet. It was also reported that Will Arnett might return to reprise his role as Batman, but had not decided yet.^[27]

In October 2014, Warner Bros. scheduled The Lego Batman Movie for 2017, and The Lego Movie 2 for May 25, 2018.^[28][29] On October 25, 2014, it was reported that Lord and Miller had signed on to write The Lego Movie 2.^[30] On October 30, it was announced that Australia-based animation studio Animal Logic was in talks to produce the next three Lego films (though the deal was not finalized at the time) and the New South Wales government would make financial contributions to all the films.^[31] On November 12, during an interview with BBC News, Lord and Miller revealed that there would be more female characters featured in the film.^[32]

On February 24, 2015, the sequel was titled The Lego Movie Sequel and Rob Schrab was announced as the film's director, replacing McKay as director as he was scheduled to direct The Lego Batman Movie instead.^[33] By November 2015, Miller announced that the first draft of the script was completed.^[34] Subsequent rewrites were provided by Raphael Bob-Waksberg,^[35] Dominic Russo^[36] and Matthew Fogel.^[37] By February 2017, Schrab had been replaced by Mike Mitchell, reportedly due to 'creative differences'.^[5] Production started in Canada on October 2, 2017.^[38][39] In an interview with Collider, producer Dan Lin confirmed that Lord & Miller were rewriting the script during production. Also Lin said that due to the success of competing Disney musical films like Frozen and Moana, the sequel was going to have more songs incorporated in the film.^[40]

The production of the film took advantage of Animal Logic's latest update to its trace renderer, Glimpse, to improve on-screen detail and depth-of-field.^[41]

The film is dedicated to Charie Miller, Christopher Miller's mother, who died on December 27, 2018, before the film was released.^[42]

Writing[edit]

The Lego Movie 2's narrative starts after the events of the first film, just as Finn's toddler sister Bianca starts to play with Duplo blocks and tries to take over Bricksburg. In the intervening years, Bianca has taken more of the Lego sets to incorporate into her own creations. The animation team recognized that girls would likely not only use Lego bricks but also incorporate other materials, such as fabrics and paper, creating a challenge for their rendering team. They wanted these elements to appear as if a child was manipulating them through their stop-motion animation process. They explored multiple design styles for each playset that is within Bianca's room, the 'Systar System', and developed new animation approaches for some of these styles, including using fewer frames as in inbetweening.^[16]

They also incorporated the Lego Friends line of toys aimed at girls, which include mini-dolls like General Sweet Mayhem. However, unlike traditional Lego mini-figurines, the Lego Friends' mini-dolls do not have the same articulation, for example, having no separate leg movement or wrists that rotate. The production team, working with Lego, did not want to create walking and movement patterns that did not match the articulation the real figurines could do, and came up with creative solutions for animating these in the film. This also created a challenge for at least one song and dance number; production brought in a choreographing team to help plan out the dance taking into account for the restrictions of movement for the mini-figures. For Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi, the production team decided to simply assign a pile of random Lego bricks for her, but required that each of the forms that she could shape-shift into used only those bricks from that pile.^[16]

Among a concern between the creative leads was how to represent the Lego universe. Miller stated that they see each of the Lego films taking place in the mind of a child, with both The Lego Movie and The Lego Batman Movie occurring within Finn's mind. With The Lego Movie 2, both Finn and Bianca's imaginations drive events, and the creators opted to leave parts of the film vague if the scene was based on Finn's version, Bianca's version or some combination. However, in some scenes they wanted to be clear it was Finn or Bianca's view influencing the events, and thus provided clues such as the type of dialogue given by the main characters to figure out whose imagination was at work.^[9]

Among the mini-figures within the film is one based on Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Lord and Miller had considered figures that would be unexpected within the film, with Ginsburg as one of their ideas. They received Ginsburg's blessing for this appearance, though she did not perform any voice work for this role. Subsequently, the Ginsburg mini-figure will be made as part of the movie's toy line.^[43][44]

Casting[edit]

On March 23, 2018, it was reported that Tiffany Haddish had been cast in the film to voice a new lead character, while returning actors would be Chris Pratt as Emmet, Elizabeth Banks as Wyldstyle, Will Arnett as Batman, Channing Tatum as Superman, and Jonah Hill as Green Lantern.^[10]Stephanie Beatriz and Arturo Castro were announced to be part of the film on June 4, 2018.^[12] Castro was replaced by Richard Ayoade in the final film. During San Diego Comic Con 2018, it was announced that Pratt would also voice a new character in addition to Emmet, Rex Dangervest, who is based after Pratt himself.^[11] In November 2018, Maya Rudolph joined the cast.^[15] In early January 2019, it was revealed that Jason Momoa would reprise his role as Aquaman from the DC Extended Universe. Gal Gadot was to also reprise her role as Wonder Woman from the DC Extended Universe, replacing Cobie Smulders from the previous film,^[45] but Smulders ended up returning shortly before the film's release.^[18]

Daniel Radcliffe was originally set to voice a look-like of his Harry Potter known as Larry Potter, but his scene was ultimately cut. It was revealed by Mike Mitchell that Radcliffe's cameo was deleted due to not wanting to risk anything that would upset the Harry Potter fandom. The character was replaced by Larry Poppins (another look-alike character based on a British media icon).^[46]

Music[edit]

Following the same attempt to create an earworm with the first film's 'Everything Is Awesome', the producers of the film created a similar song for the sequel, called 'Catchy Song', which principally features as its only lyric the repeated phrase 'This song's gonna get stuck inside your head'. The song was written by Jon Lajoie, produced by Dillon Francis, and sung by T-Pain and That Girl Lay Lay. According to Lajoie, he found that 'Everything is Awesome' was 'annoyingly catchy', and the only way that they could outdo that was 'Dial the 'annoying' up to 11!

Mark Mothersbaugh, who composed the first film's soundtrack, as well as the score for The Lego Ninjago Movie, returned to compose the score for the sequel.^[47]

On June 4, 2018, the first poster was released along with an announcement that the first trailer would be released the following day.^[52] The second trailer was released on November 20, 2018, along with the second poster.^[53] On Black Friday 2018, Warner Bros. released The Lego Movie on YouTube in its entirety for one day only, with a trailer for The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part attached.^[54] The third and final trailer was released on December 19, 2018.

Sets[edit]

Reception[edit]

Box office[edit]

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part grossed $105.8 million in the United States and Canada, and $85.5 million in other territories, for a total worldwide gross of $191.3 million.^[4]

In the United States and Canada, The Lego Movie 2 was released alongside What Men Want, Cold Pursuit and The Prodigy, and was originally projected to gross $50–55 million from 4,303 theaters in its opening weekend.^[65] The film made $1.5 million from Thursday night previews, and when combined with advance screenings held at 550 theaters on January 26, 2019, made a total preview gross of $2.1 million. After making $8.5 million on its first day, weekend estimates were lowered to $31 million. It went to debut to $34.1 million, finishing first at the box office but marking a 50% decline from the first film. Deadline Hollywood attributed the low opening to franchise fatigue due to the release of two spin-offs prior to The Lego Movie 2, as well as Warner Bros. promoting the film using similar marketing tactics from the first film, leading audiences assuming the sequel derivative and indistinguishable from its predecessor.^[66][67] It also failed to outgross its competition with How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.

Critical response[edit]

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 85% based on 272 reviews, with an average rating of 6.96/10. The website's critical consensus reads, 'While it isn't quite as much fun as its predecessor, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part fits neatly into an animated all-ages franchise with heart and humor to spare.'^[68] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 65 out of 100, based on 51 critics, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'.^[69] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of 'A–' on an A+ to F scale (down from the first film's 'A'), while those at PostTrak gave it an average 4 out of 5 stars; social media monitor RelishMix noted online responses to the film were 'great'.^[66]

Jesse Hassenger of The A.V. Club called the film 'lovable', giving it a grade of B and writing 'Like Brad Bird's recent Incredibles 2, it follows up a dazzling animated original (all the more dazzling for earning that designation despite being based on a toy line) with some big ideas that don’t cohere with the same streamlined magic as its predecessor.'^[70]TheWrap's Yolanda Machado commended the screenplay and directing and wrote that the film 'expands on the original's premise, adding new worlds and characters to the growing LEGO universe, while also crafting a story that is timely, inventive, hilarious and perfect for all ages.'^[71]

Chris Nashawaty of Entertainment Weekly says that while it was better than most other films it didn't recapture the surprise of the first film, saying 'Everything is still awesome. Just a little bit less so.'^[72] For The Hollywood Reporter, Michael Rechtshaffen wrote that the film brought 'little that's fresh or funny to the interlocking brick table despite boasting a script penned by originators Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.'^[8]

Accolades[edit]

The trailer for the film was nominated for a Golden Trailer Award,^[73] losing to Toy Story 4.

Future[edit]

During an interview with Moviefone on February 7, 2019, Pratt expressed his idea for a potential third film in the series.^[74][75]

Featuring songs and an original score from painter, singer, and Devo co-founder Mark Mothersbaugh (The Royal Tenenbaums, Pee Wee's Playhouse, Shameless, and House of Lies), the soundtrack for the computer-animated adventure-comedy Lego Movie, directed and co-written by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, with whom Mothersbaugh worked on 2009's like-minded Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs and the 2012 big-screen comedy reboot of 21 Jump Street, features 28 '80s-infused, appropriately quirky cuts, and boasts four versions (including the Tegan and Sara-helmed flagship rendition) of the infectious earworm of a theme song 'Everything Is Awesome.'
