  • Two Movies, two results. Why is the Lego Movie so much better than the Emoji Movie? I'll at least scrape the surface here.

    I might as well clarify for those who don't have the patience to watch the first minute of the video: The reason that I am comparing these two is that one of these was the direct result of the other. The Emoji Movie exists because The Lego Movie exists.

    The fact that Emmet is a construction worker is actually an integral part to the story.

    I'd have to disagree with your summary of the plot of The Lego Movie. Yes, there's a "ordinary guy finds himself and saves the day" thread, but the true core of the movie is that the whole Emmet portion is an allegory for a child having conflict with and then connecting with his father. That's the true plot, and although it's not an untapped trope, it's definitely not as common, and the notion that the epic adventure is an allegory rather than something that the father and child actually go on is pretty unique.

    • @mochachv
      @mochachv 2 роки тому +57

      Another reason it worked is because the product being advertised, legos, are mainly targeted towards children and people with creative and wild imaginations, the enemy of that was a mature father wanting to be serious and rework things to make more "sense" and whatnot. The father and child conflict in parallel to legos who built wild, fun things and legos who wanted to keep things safer and more "sensible" was perfect in another sense, that you could either build the real world into a smaller lego world or you could go nuts with your imagination and build to the limit of your ideas. The fact it had also considered both builds as equally important was amazing. Not only did they represent legos as fun for all audiences, but they also told a heartwarming story. Lord Business' redemption arc was short but it worked out because he was also an allegory for a father who was originally serious and shot down ideas his child had, but then he started to understand the child and play with him. Overall this movie was just a 9999999/10 beautiful never done before complete masterpiece

      Are you high? That's just the ending part. It's more of an addon to the story later on. Like a big reveal. It's not the point of the whole story. While watching it, you don't just think "oh, yeah this is a son having relationship problems with his dad". Before the reveal all it is an analogy of creativity/freedom vs perfection and basic key standarts.

    I disagree with the idea that Emmit doesn’t fit in within the LEGO movie. He fits in so well that he is boring and no one remembers him. Instead of doing the usual thing and having the hero always be on the outside, it has the hero be completely and utterly normal, unlike the Emoji Movie

      That's called the "Everyman" trope -- a normal character who explored the extraordinary. So Emmet fits this trope very well because he's a regular construction worker who was living in a society until he ended up being a "chosen one". He becomes one of the "extraordinary" at the end.

    You forgot to mention the brilliant satire included in The Lego Movie. It doesn't take itself seriously, which is why it's so great. The characters of bad cop and Vitruvius are there to make fun of the fact that the actors who voice them typically play characters with similar personalities, the movie's plot line is making fun of the fact that many movies feature the same "chosen one goes on an adventure" story structure, the "everything is awesome" song is meant to make fun of the fact that movies tend to use generic pop songs on their soundtracks, as well as serving as a satire on pop music itself, and the character of emmet is meant to poke fun at the fact that the protagonist of a movie always has some sort of Quirk, something different from all the other characters. Long story short, The Lego Movie was poking fun at cinematic tropes, which made for a legitimately enjoyable watching experience. The Emoji Movie, on the other hand, was nothing more than mindless product placement and plagiarized ideas.

    The Lego Movie was so good because the entire movie was the real life kid's imagination. It was his story, and he was playing it out with the toys. It's all so believable, that the creativity, plot, and cast are the way they are, is because the writers of the story wrote it as if it was all pulled from an actual lego game a kid made up. And they did it perfectly.

    • @Bjork4s
      @Bjork4s 5 місяців тому +1

      The fact that the filmmakers pulled out a lot of crossovers from different universes makes it even better. Most people (myself included) likes to play Lego sets and just put a bunch of random characters in it. For example, me playing with the Lego Millennium Falcon and somehow put Lego Batman and Dumbledore in it. And here in this movie, we have a Millennium Falcon with Han Solo, Chewbacca, and Lando riding it meeting Batman in one scene and me sitting there watching it be like "Yeah, that's how I played with them". Or in The Lego Batman Movie where Joker somehow teamed up with Voldemort, Sauron, Godzilla, and others non DC characters to beat Batman. That's like the most accurate thing in how to play with your Legos 😂

    I think what made the Lego Movie so good is the fact that at the very end of the movie, it shows that Emmit's whole life is just a child playing with his toys, and that all this is just its imagination. It makes it seem like the kid really made this whole story up all on his own! Especially how there are all these figures from random sets thrown in here, like Batman, and how Cloud Coocoo land is extra pieces from a bunch of sets.
    Meanwhile in the emoji movie, the emoji's are pretty much alive and are doing thing on their own. The kid isn't imagining them or anything, they just kinda decide to exist.

      Joel Hornburg no one should have memories of emojis. Sony basically said "oh hey kids nowadays use those emotions on their phone? well lets make a movie so that they will relate." The worst thing that a company could do is make a marketing campaign about emojis and sadly more and more companies are doing this. It is extremely cringy when you use an emoji like once or twice a week and then that's what you are associated with. Its just companies trying to see what kids are into nowadays and its for some reason its something that kids rarely use that Sony decides to make a movie on. Some kids don't even have phones. I feel bad for the people that will grow up with movies like this.

    Not to mention: You can actually make stories and scenarios out of LEGO, because they're designed to have that sort of creativity -- and the minifigures allow you to act them out in the first place.
    Emojis, on the other hand, were designed to be nothing more than props for text messages. There's no character, there's no scenes to build out of them. It's just texting. That's it. Not a whole lot of story to be written there.
    Admittedly, they probably _could've_ made a good movie about the inner workings of a phone, but emojis might not hold the amount of potential required in order to be such a movie's primary focus. Maybe as a running joke, but _definitely_ not the focus.

It’s a really nice homage to the product and to the huge amount of people who make stop motion lego videos

      What are you talking about? I assume you mean that *you* didn't want a Lego movie because if not, then you're just wrong.
      Let's put what I'm saying this way.
      Kids play with Lego, both new kids and kids who have gotten older are fans of Lego.
      The Lego movie has a very clear target demographic.
      Kids barely know what emojis are, teenagers use them ironically. (Most of the time)
      Most adults despise emojis
      So who is the target audience of a film about guy trying to get a birch who judges him based off of the emojis he uses???
      Or could put it another way
      Kids play with Lego. They make their own stories with Lego. They are a fan of Lego.
      Of course they would like to see it brought to life.
      The Lego film was a good idea.
      And we'll, we all know why no one likes emojis.
      The main point is that, trust me, kids and people who used to be kids wanted to see a film dedicated to Lego.
      (Even if you didn't)

    The Lego Movie has so many great background moments with the characters if you're paying attention.
    Batman mentions to Lucy in this scene here that "He's the hero you deserve." To which Emmet is confused, despite having feelings for Lucy, he believes in that moment that Batman isn't talking about him, which is why Emmet turns around, thinking he's referring to someone else. To which Lucy moves Emmet's face meet hers as a way of saying 'It's you, you doofus."
    I don't know it was just a humorous moment of character consistency to show that he's still pretty naive, or that if Emmet genuinely believed that he wasn't good enough for her, but either way, good stuff!

    I remember when I first heard about the movie, I was thinking about a film in which a man is made entirely out of emojis who can’t settle on one thing, and the face emoji is really the only main character, thing to be normal in the real world, but stuff like a ghost emoji scaring the person interviewing them in a job interview, rogue emojis that just take out part of the structure for good, and the fact that it seems only the face actually has an interest in anything outside of the man’s body could make an interesting task to overcome, and in the second act, the man believes he’s failed and exiled himself, only for the other emojis to realize something is wrong and wonder what it is. He has to show them how the world works, and develop niches for each one so they don’t get bored, ultimately making him more efficient at what he does than a normal person of his physical features, and he can settle down into a comfortable life, with a deeper understanding of both the parts that make up his body and vice versa. (Ok, a bit of that was tacked on, but the basic first act was the same as a good few years ago. Also, I hadn’t seen any trailers of the movie or really any of the graphics when I made this idea.)

Due to the fact I’ve seen it before, I was rather impressed at the fact that the filmmakers decided to go for it in both. Plus, I loved when Ninjago Movie used some more real world elements, like water and the jungle. It felt like when a kid puts their toys in the backyard and uses the grass as a jungle. But yeah, I would say that the LEGO Movie story wise was way superior to the Emoji Movie.

    I think a really good point on what is wrong with the Emoji Movie is how it handles the concept of a tiny fictional world acting as a parallel to the real one.
    In the LEGO Movie, the world of LEGOs acts as a unique window into the real human world that built it. The different lands are divided, separated, and kept perfectly in line, just like how "The Man Upstairs" likes them, with a place like Cloud CukooLand being a dump for random creations made by Finn. We learn a lot about Finn through the way how much of the characters act, and how their reactions to Lord Business, a stand-in for his Father, mirror how he feels about his Father, how he doesn't appreciate the unique creativity that he wants to show. The Plot revolves around this conflict of the humans, yet they are only properly introduced part-way through the third act. The film was so good at letting us understand WHY they are like that that the fact we only saw them in the flesh for a brief moment, we understand everything perfectly.
    In the Emoji Movie, the connection with the kid to the phone is evident, the phone affecting his life in reality happens constantly, and the conflict in the phone fixes the conflict in reality. The problem? We know virtually nothing about him! Barely anything they do in the phone tells us about what he likes or does or acts. Gene doesn't even act as a good representation for him, either, as his conflict of standing out too much in a society that demands conformity barely is a factor in the real world. Hell, we even go through his photos and nothing is really learned from him. And in the end, what does this all lead up to? The emojis ask a girl he likes out for him. That's it. What about her does he like in her? What is their history? Do they send texts constantly? Maybe his chat history can tell us more about his character? Wait, her name is his password for his phone? ... That's... kinda creepy...
    Basically, there is so little focus on how the kid is as a human, that LEGO movie gets right and the EMOJI movie fails at, and I feel that's a big problem.

    • @Fleshi_Guy615
      @Fleshi_Guy615 2 роки тому +31

      Now, the emoji movie could work if they actually tried.
      What could be more interesting is if we never got to see the kid, but information we learn about him from his phone activity could be an insight to his struggles, like putting together a puzzle. It wouldn't make sense for gene to mirror the kid, as he is a random emoji, but it would be interesting for us to get a window into the kids struggles through pictures, texts, search history, subtle clues that tell us whats really going, AND maybe the kid could have a more interesting, serious and relevant problem that isn't getting a date with this girl he has a crush on (which is kind of a stupid boring and generic plot)
      But this movie is stupid. So that would never happen.
      Also i hate animated movies about the internet anyway. They are always terrible, because doing a movie about the internet means you have to personify different aspects of it and it usually ends up being stupid and embarrasing. Looking at the internet from the perspective of an out of touch adult writing the script makes the internet seem like its some cesspool of people making cringy references and self absorbed attention seeking users. Your are bound to make dated references because it takes years for a movie to even be made. When the characters explain the way the internet works, you get this vibe that the writers don't really understand this place themselves, and it just feels uncomfortable, like someone from the outside looking in at this weird culture they don't want to get involved with.
      I can't exactly it properly, but I really hate movies that acknowledge the internet like this. The only animated movie I've seen that seem s like it was written by people who are part of the internet and portray it in a realistic, albeit comedic way is the Mitchells VS the Machines.
      SO BE LIKE THEM MORE OFTEN, SONY.

    They made "The Lego Movie" for 60 Million USD. They are rolling in that money.

    The issue with the emoji movie, put bluntly, is that it was far too heavy-handed and self-referential. The LEGO Movie didn’t shove the fact that it was legos down your throat or try to sell you stuff- it was subtle. Its universe retained a sense of general realism. The movie does a great job of taking a cherished childhood toy and shaping it into a masterpiece of cinema. The emoji movie, however, is solely based upon a tiny, insignificant portion of most American’s lives. It even manages to be questionably offensive towards teenagers. Emojis just aren’t a loved enough thing to make a movie about.

    In my opinion, Just putting these two near each other should cause them to repel each other and explode with the power of a Tsar Bomba, that's just how polar opposite they are in my opinion. One great movie, and one literal AD montage cashgrab thingy.
    The video was great, though. Finally, someone that calmly explains how horrible Emoji Movie is instead of being infuriated by and yelling at it (and it's creators).
