Video games offer entertainment . The Lego Movie like most games allows the players to enter a frictional world that means they can escape from their everyday life.   Q9: The poster campaign for the lego movie follows the genre codes and convections of the film . the main popster with several cats members contains a tagline .the story of a nobody who saved ever yone - that sums up the appeal of the film . in this case the appeal is the audience can follow an ordinary hero who is like them and watch him triumph

The Lego Movie : Revision

The Lego Movie   20/06/18 LO: -To use Intertextuality in The Lego Movie         -To include how The Lego Movie is marketed         -To use and explain Postmodernism        The term Intertextuality refers to the process of creating references to any kind of media text via another media text.

Company brought in Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (of 21 Jump Street and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs fame) to create a genuinely funny and clever movie. How has it laid the foundations for future success?  The benefits of this Lego film are not just limited to the supportive spending of adults either. What makes a children's movie such an enduring legacy is that it firstly finds its excitable audience in the cinema, then the young viewers eagerly snap up a DVD that can be viewed several times over and will probably sit in the DVD collection for years. How has it got heart? They do it to laugh, to cry, to get angry, sad and to experience the millions of shades of emotion that lie in between these broad categories . How is it all about ‘you’? We mentioned above the core theme of the movie: the difference between those who create and those who build,
