‘The LEGO Batman Movie’ TV Spots: Batman Has All The Good Ideas
While DC Comics fans are patiently waiting to see what Ben Affleck can bring to the big screen with his first outing as director, co-writer and star of a new solo Batman movie, this spring will bring the Dark Knight to theaters in a much different way.
The LEGO Batman Moviebrings back the building block version of the Caped Crusader (voiced byWill Arnett) that debuted inThe LEGO Moviea little while back, but this time all of his comic book counterparts are on the scene too, includingMichael Ceraas Robin,Ralph Fiennesas Alfred andRosario Dawsonas Barbara Gordon, aka Batgirl. Now two newThe LEGO Batman MovieTV spots show that Batman has some trouble working with partners. Watch them below!
This movie is pulling out all the stops when it comes to the roster of DC Comics characters facing Batman this time. In addition toZach Galifianakisas The Joker, we’ll also be hearingJenny Slateas his sidekick Harley Quinn (who slams a car with her hammer above), Two-Face (finally played byBilly Dee Williams), Bane, Penguin, The Riddler, Scarecrow and tons more.
WhenThe LEGO Batman Moviewas announced, I wasn’t sure that the character could sustain his own movie, seeming better utilized as a supporting character. But everything we’ve seen in the trailers so far indicates that this could be just as good if not better thanThe LEGO Movie. The spirit of the creative nature of Phil Lord & Chris Miller’s big screen take on the building block toys is intact, and the comedy is top notch.

In the irreverent spirit of fun that made The LEGO® Movie a worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that ensemble—LEGO Batman—stars in his own big-screen adventure. But there are big changes brewing in Gotham, and if he wants to save the city from The Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up.
