The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part | 2/8/2019 | Big Space Musical

So at least 1.5B between this, Ninjago and Lego Batman? I wonder if they'll manage to keep the budgets in the same 60-70M area.

Phil Lord And Chris Miller CONFIRMED To Write THE LEGO MOVIE Sequel

Hopefully they'll direct it as well.

Hopefully they'll direct it as well.

Could do so much more.

[GuardiaStar]

Awesome! I heard are they going to have a ninjago film? Or was it Batman? I'd like another Lego Movie sequel with everyone to be honest

All of them.

“Well I don’t want to give you spoilers but we were really interested in what happens to that boy who’s in the meta story in the first movie when he’s four years older. When he’s an adolescent how does that change his point of view? And it’s nice to have the characters start in a different place from the first movie. Emmet, for example, was in an existential crisis of having seen another dimension and was questioning the whole point of his existence.”

 

Lord Miller reaffirm they aren't directing

[Ray G]

Ninjago seems like a movie that was in development for a while and they then realized they could retrofit it into this new franchise and double the gross. I'm expecting only some tentative connections between that and the rest of the franchise.

What will be Miller and Lord's next movie?

Has this guy got any animation experience? Eh...

As a matter of fact he does.

 

He has done a number of great Community episodes including this one:

 

 

This is a great choice in my opinion.

Alright, I was just making sure he did one of the animated Community episodes haha.

 

Guess he's a good choice if Lord/Miller don't want to do it.

[Avatree]

I'm liking the new name.

He wrote Monster House

Speaking as someone who has no experience in animation, I'm obviously an expert.  Directing animation is different(like completely different), but to me it seems like it's probably a little easier.  You make sure the story is right and the voice acting is where you want it and then oversee what the animators are doing.  They are the ones that are doing all the heavy lifting anyway, right?  You can tweak little things to make it just right and continue to mold it as it goes along.

Check this video from about 22 minutes onward. It gives a look into how an animated movie is made. This is the bullet points version shown at Universal Studios (in a pretty entertaining stage show)

Opens a week earlier at May 18, 2018. http://www.thewrap.com/lego-batman-lego-movie-sequel-arriving-ahead-of-schedule-ninjago-delayed/

 

As Warner Bros. continues to build a strong slate of animated tentpoles, the studio has set release dates for three LEGO features — an untitled LEGO Batman movie will arrive earlier than planned on Feb. 10, 2017; “Ninjago” is still under construction has been pushed from fall 2016 to Sept. 22, 2017 in the U.S., with international dates to follow; and “The LEGO Movie Sequel” will open one week earlier than originally scheduled on May 18, 2018.
​

The announcement was jointly made by Warner Bros. executives Dan Fellman, president of domestic distribution, and Veronika Kwan Vandenberg, president of international distribution.
