A LEGO Brickumentary

This is honestly my favorite documentary that we have watched this year in this class. It was much different than the other things that we have watched so far. It had a positive and upbeat tone and was entertaining through its run time. I really connected to me on a personal level too because I was always into Lego as a kid and I still enjoy building them to this day. I love the fact that Phil Lord and Chris Miller were in the film talking about The Lego Movie which I adored and I also think they are two of the best young filmmakers working today. I always said that when I made enough money because Lego is in I would buy giant sets and build them in my basement. It was insanely cool seeing how much Lego means to so many people. The film itself though I thought was very well made and i particular like how they handled that narration. I liked the fact that they used a mini fig with the voice of Jason Bateman to narrate the action. My favorite part of the film in terms of content is seeing the lady who built the gigantic Lego Rivendale from Lord of the Rings win the peoples choice contest because I could see the amount of detail and work she put into building in. This is definitely my favorite documentary we have watched all year and that is due to the fact that when watching a documentary I rather be inspired then depressed.
