Lego Poster Analysis

Image
The shot type is an eye level medium long shot. The star vehicles are Emmet, Batman, Wildstyle, Vitruvius, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Unikitty, Green Ninja, Superman, a 90's Lego Spaceman, President Business and MetalBeard. Emmet is an average looking Lego construction worker from the Lego City franchise, he looks so average and normal because of the choices of the producers. By looking so normal, the movie portrays the message to the audience that anyone can be special, even the most average people. Children who play with Lego City toys would be attracted to this character because of his appearance as a Lego construction worker. Parents would be attracted to this character because of the message he brings by looking the way he is, and would want their children to understand this message. As well as this, He is voiced by Chris Pratt, who is known for his role in The Office, this would bring attention to the movie too. Wildstyle wears a black hoodie and has black hair with dyed ...

Mock Dirt

Q1. Non diegetic music is tense and this creates tension for the audience Diegetic Dialogue like "Hi guys this is Jake ... Ummm kilo..."

With sounds they have realistic

Links Between The Lego Movie & The Matrix

Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the intertextual relationship between The Matrix and The Lego Movie (10 marks) The pros of stealing the ideas and characters from another movie is that you do not have to be imaginative with coming up with your own ideas. The Lego movie copied the entire plot from the Matrix; including both of the settings being in a completely imaginative world. Both movies have an average guy who becomes a hero, a leader who is captured, and once both of them 'die' and come back to life they are able to do anything. With the Matrix being successful, this means the Lego Movie would be successful. The Lego Movie producers did not need to use their imagination to come up with ideas as they had this template already created.  The disadvantage of copying another movie is the threat of copyright. The company would lose a lot of money and would have to remove the movie from everywhere had they been copyright struck. It is lucky that the Lego Movi...
