"The Lego Movie What if…?" - What if Robin attended Batman's wedding?
If the Lego movies are supposed to be a connected cinematic universe, what they should've done was brought back some of the other characters. For instance, if Batman and Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi were to be married, I felt Batman should've introduced Robin and Batgirl to his soon-to-be wife. But here's what I can think of down below.
ROUGH STORY CONCEPT
It's 5:15pm, and everyone in the Systar System has gathered for Batman and Queen Watevra's wedding. Robin would be allowed to attend as the guest of honor (Batgirl can appear too, but I just don't know what she'd do other than accompany Robin). Before the wedding even happens, I think Robin would be shocked at first by Queen Watevera's appearance, but would still be happy that he's gonna get a stepmom. And at the wedding, after Ice Cream Cone announces, "Does anyone have a reason these two should not be married? Speak now, or forever hold your peace.", Robin would warn Batman about Emmet, who destroys the wedding, causing Queen Watevera to break apart. Now, I don't know what would happen when Robin and the others end up in the Bin of Stau-rajj, but I do know that sometime after Queen Watevera is resurrected, I would want Robin and his new stepmom to spend some quality time during the ending of "The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part".
So yeah, nothing too lengthy as my last "What-If", but still a good concept for what could've been done had Phil Lord and Christopher Miller been smarter about using additional past Lego movie characters.
The time has come, and The Lego Movie has finally reached its 10th anniversary. When I learned about the movie early in 2013, I was fully invested in this movie and I had to see it; and see it I did, in theaters on its initial date. I was even collecting a variety of sets of the movie and playing and completing its tie-in video game after I got it on DVD a month prior. Long story short, it was awesome as the phrase was used in the movie itself. As The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, I grew distant from it and never revisit it until now thanks to the upcoming Despicable Me 4 this year.
Anyway, to tribute The Lego Movie, I made my take on what the "2-Film Collection" Blu-ray could have been like had it been released prior or on its 10th anniversary.
I based the front off the front cover of the 2-Film Collection DVD while the "2-Film Collection" banner for the Blu-ray was based off this one from a Blu-ray triple pack of The Lego Movie, The Lego Batman Movie and The Lego Ninjago Movie.
For the back cover: The background was straightforward while tedious while adding the synopsis and other listings had made the attempt long when looking up the reviews and back covers. The bottom was gonna be the same as the top, but I had difficultly from the limitations and lack of font similar to the jargon regarding the digital code details and disc specifications. Adding the characters was by inspiration from the Space Jam 2-Film Collection's back cover with Bugs Bunny and Tweety Bird on the back. The Lego Movie 2-Film Collection DVD and Space Jam 2-Film Collection were also the inspiration for adding the screenshots on the top.
It's a wonder why we never got an actual Blu-ray double pack of this duology. Hell, even when The Second Part released on home media.
