Your Childhood Hates You

You didn't expect a Back to the Future reference?You can thank Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (the year's top box-office draw in the U.S.) and G.I. Joe (which also made a couple of bucks) for instigating this.

The trades report that Warner Brothers and producer Dan Lin (behind such other "Sure things" as Justice League: Mortal and that Tomb Raider reboot we've heard diddily-dick about since it was first announced) are moving forward on a movie based on the Lego toy-line. I know what you're thinking. "I was worried they weren't ever gonna make it for awhile there!"

Details on the project are being kept closely guarded besides the intention of it being a blend of live action and animation. I can imagine how this was pitched to the WB executives: "We'll do it like Avatar - except for kids!"

Maybe it will be presented in IMAX 3-D and the audience can build their own Lego sets during the screening.

Hopefully I can bludgen myself with a 3-D Lego block if I get dragged to it.
