The two go hand in hand:
Decent bricks = decent sets
Ever since this juniorisation rubbish has been in the bricks have become big
ugly and...err (whats that last one?). Or is it the other way around, since
the bricks have become big and ugly and <insert description> the sets have
become less interesting.
I get the impression with the likes of Lego Media getting so much TLG
resources, that one day soon in the future, you go and order a set composed of
"virtual bricks" and put them together into a "virtual model". That way you
can have however many of any particular piece you wanted.
My opinion: leave the movie making to movie makers, 95% of them can't get it
right so what hope does a toy company have.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
I'd probably still go see it anyhow, on the hope that they have special mini-
figs available.
