.lego batman 2: As good as every Batman movie has been so far, we’ve got enough of the dark and brooding Batman. Even if “The LEGO Batman2 ” was genuinely funny at times, it was still an incredibly dark superhero movie not meant for kids
This is part of why “The LEGO Batman Movie” remains such a special and refreshing entry in the Batman mythos. Not only does it feature one of the best Batman performances, thanks to Will Arnett, who stole every scene in “The LEGO Movie” he was in; it is colorful, visually interesting, and it gets at the heart of the Dark Knight without the need to be super depressing.
And if you like superhero movies for their references, there are few Easter eggs as good as the movie montage in “The LEGO Batman Movie,” which is outright hilarious.

A Different Kind of Caped Crusader
The thing that makes “The LEGO Batman Movie” stand out is it is a rare Batman movie that not only asks why Bruce Wayne keeps putting on the cowl, but it answers its question and explores who Bruce Wayne is without Batman.
In the first act, Batman manages to capture virtually all the major villains in Gotham and put them in jail, which means he finally has some time to relax and be himself.
The problem is he has no idea what to do with himself when not fighting bad guys. He tries having expensive Lobster Thermidor dinners and watching movies at home, but he finds that nothing satisfies him. Nothing Alfred tries to do, even adopting a young kid, can make Bruce come out of his brooding shell.
Indeed, this is the first Batman film (until Robert Pattinson’s emo Batman) that confronts the idea of Batman as a coping mechanism for a deeply emotionally troubled Bruce Wayne, who has not been able to heal from his parents’ deaths.
This leads to “The LEGO Batman Movie” a rare Batman movie.
where the titular character has a proper character arc and changes by the end of the film. realizing he needs to open up to others and change his loner behavior — not unlike Robert Pattinson’s Batman realizing he needs to be a symbol of hope and not just fear.
Indeed, this is a movie that pokes fun and genuinely criticizes the kind of a loner, brooding portrayal of the Caped Crusader we’ve seen time and time again in films, showing it to be incredibly dumb rather than inspiring and cool. Plus, the movie is hilarious, and its meta jokes all land well.
Even though the movie was great, got good reviews, and did well at the box office, there was never a sequel.
What Happened To The Man In The Cape?
Chris McKay told Collider about a “LEGO Batman” sequel that was never made. He said that Dan Harmon and Michael Waldron were writing it, which is a good sign and a big loss for moviegoers:
“The structure was like ‘The Godfather, Part II.‘ It was a story about Batman’s relationship with the Justice League. Superman now, as well as the beginnings of the Justice League and Batman’s relationship with Superman then.”
McKay told Collider that rights issues were the reason why “The LEGO Batman Movie 2” didn’t happen. So, Warner Bros. lost the rights to make a movie about LEGO, which Universal quickly bought up.
If there is one good thing about all of this, it’s that Universal can now do what Warner Bros.
