First Teaser Trailer for ‘The LEGO Movie’
Warner Bros. has released the first teaser trailer and poster for Phil Lord & Christopher Miller’s upcoming animated feature The Lego Movie. The film centers on a perfectly average LEGO minifigure named Emmet who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person in the world and is called upon by a group of strangers to save the world from an evil tyrant.
This trailer is so good it even makes a Pitbull song tolerable! The animation looks stunning, the vocal cast (Chris Pratt, Will Ferrell, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Nick Offerman, Alison Brie, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman etc.) is top-notch, and all of the jokes and gags land perfectly here.
The film hits theaters February 7, 2014.
The 3D computer animated adventure tells the story of Emmet, an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey for which Emmet is hopelessly and hilariously underprepared.
