| 5 | [[folder: Main Story]] |
| 6 | * Opening prologue |
| 7 | ** The title cutscene on Foundation Prime has bricks combining to form, among other things, [[Franchise/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy the number 42]]. One of the other things they form is the [[https://brickset.com/sets/10214-1/Tower-Bridge the Tower Bridge LEGO set]]. |
| 8 | ** The ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' portion of the opening cutscene is structured almost exactly as it was in [[VideoGame/LEGOTheLordOfTheRings its own]] VideoGame/LEGOAdaptationGame, with the only real difference being that Gandalf keeps his hat. |
| 9 | ** Wyldstyle recognizes both Batman and Gandalf when they drop into the ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie LEGO Movie]]'' world, as both exist there as Master Builders. |
| 10 | * [[Film/WizardOfOz Follow the LEGO Brick Road]] |
| 11 | ** The level's name is an obvious reference to "Follow the yellow brick road," a line spoken by the Munchkins in the source material. |
| 12 | ** A cart blocking the trio's path is mentioned to belong to the Horse of a Different Color, who is seen to the left of the road. |
| 13 | ** During the first battle with the Wicked Witch, Wyldstyle comments that her broomstick seems to be [[Theatre/{{Wicked}} defying gravity]] somehow. |
| 14 | ** One of the obstacles on the way to the Witch's castle is a talking tree. He gets summoned again in the ''Portal'' level to deal with some turrets. |
| 15 | *** Depending on what characters are active, Batman may suspect that the talking tree is somehow related to Poison Ivy, while Gandalf may wonder whether it is an Ent. |
| 16 | ** Connecting the Arcade Machine to an Arcade Dock in the hidden Munchkin Town area allows you to play ''[[https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toobin%27 Toobin']]''. |
| 17 | ** The minikits in this level are picnic baskets containing the objects that the Wizard gives Dorothy's friends at the end of the film: A diploma, a medal, and a heart-shaped clock. |
| 18 | * [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Meltdown at Sector 7-G]] |
| 19 | ** The level title refers to where Homer Simpson works in the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. |
| 20 | ** Springfield's Foundation Element is the Inanimate Carbon Rod, the same one seen in the show's opening and [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS5E15DeepSpaceHomer the one that Homer lost the title of Employee of the Month to.]] |
| 21 | ** After crash-landing in the Simpson house and interrupting a CouchGag, Gandalf turns on ''The Krusty the Clown Show''. |
| 22 | ** A Micro-Manager in the sky section of the level is destroyed by [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS7E5LisaTheVegetarian a roasted pig flying through the air]]. |
| 23 | ** As the Micro-Manager the trio is hijacking crashes into the power plant, Homer mutters in his sleep [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS25E20BrickLikeMe "It's not selling out, it's co-branding!"]] |
| 24 | ** Similarly, once he gets captured he mistakes Lord Business for [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS8E1TreehouseOfHorrorVII a space alien]]. |
| 25 | ** In the power plant, Mr. Burns puts up a sign saying "323 days without otherworldly invasion" before changing it to 0 days. ''LEGO Dimensions'' was released on September 27, 2015; 322 days prior to the game's release, on November 9, 2014, was the airing of the ''Simpsons''[=/=]''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' crossover "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS26E6Simpsorama Simpsorama]]", the most recent canon ''Simpsons'' crossover episode at the time[[note]]A. While the later episode "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS26E22MathletesFeat Mathlete's Feat]]" did feature a ''Franchise/RickAndMorty'' crossover short as its CouchGag, it being a couch gag in the first place immediately renders that crossover non-canon and B. not long after the release of ''LEGO Dimensions'', "Cue Detective" firmly cemented the canonicity of "Simpsorama" with a single scene of Marge's revisiting Bender's inert body in the Simpson family basement.[[/note]]. |
| 26 | ** Using the Chroma keystone, the Joker revives the large Joker-Bot from ''[[VideoGame/LegoBatman LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes]]''. |
| 27 | --->'''The Joker''': Ready for round two? |
| 28 | ** Somehow, you can take the [[Series/DoctorWho TARDIS]] from Mr. Burns' office to [[spoiler: ''[[WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones Bedrock]]'', of all places]]. |
| 29 | ** A minikit in the power plant can be obtained by breaking five barrels of [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS8E21TheOldManAndTheLisa Little Lisa Slurry]]. |
| 30 | ** The [[SuspiciouslySimilarSong replacement music]] for the level seems deliberately composed to be more bouncy and Elfman-esque as a tribute to [[Creator/DannyElfman the man himself]], who originally wrote the main titles. |
| 31 | * [[WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}} Elements of Surprise]] |
| 32 | ** The Elemental Phase keystone introduced in this level utilizes three elements used by the ''Ninjago'' protagonists: Fire, Lightning, and Earth, with Water swapped in for Ice. |
| 33 | * [[Series/DoctorWho A Dalektable Adventure]] |
| 34 | ** As a FunnyBackgroundEvent, Gandalf interacts with the TARDIS console and electrocutes himself into Gandalf the White before [[StatusQuoIsGod electrocuting himself back into Gandalf the Grey]]. |
| 35 | ** Some monitors throughout the level show a string of numbers (17:16 23.11.63) that represents the original airdate and time for [[Recap/DoctorWhoS1E1AnUnearthlyChild "An Unearthly Child"]]. |
| 36 | ** In the space station "Dave" there is a skeleton contained in some water. Opening it with a spinjitzu switch [[Recap/DoctorWhoS34E11DarkWater reveals a Cyberman]]. |
| 37 | ** After rescuing Clara, she asks you to "run you clever boy, and remember me," repeating the final words of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E13TheNameOfTheDoctor her other temporal incarnations]] which served as ArcWords during Series 7. |
| 38 | ** A few walls on "Dave" have "BAD WOLF" scrawled on them, the ArcWords for the first new series of ''Doctor Who''. |
| 39 | ** In the cemetery, there is a cracked wall that, when broken, reveals a crack in the universe that dispenses one of the level's minikits. |
| 40 | ** A computer in the Weeping Angel portion of the level requires you to type [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E3Gridlock YA]][[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E11Utopia NA]]. |
| 41 | ** Some screens in the Weeping Angel section play the [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E4TheTimeOfAngels security footage]] from the ''Byzantium''. |
| 42 | ** The bonus area is the ''[[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E4TheGirlInTheFireplace S.S. Madame de Pompadour.]]'' You get there by opening [[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E12ThePandoricaOpens the Pandorica]]. |
| 43 | *** In the same area, there is another crack in the universe visible on one of the walls. |
| 44 | ** Surrounded by a group of Weeping Angels, Batman hits a lever with a batarang to drop the trio to safety, leaving the Angels staring at each other much like what happened in [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E10Blink their first appearance]]. |
| 45 | ** During the battle against the Dalek Emperor, he may tell his underlings to "[[AC: Secure the [[Recap/DoctorWhoS25E1RemembranceOfTheDaleks unlimited rice pudding!]]]]" |
| 46 | ** After bringing the main trio back to Vorton World, The Doctor scans the gateway and sees that it's being used like a [[Recap/DoctorWho20thASTheFiveDoctors Gallifreyan time scoop]]. |
| 47 | ** A [[Recap/DoctorWhoS25E1RemembranceOfTheDaleks Special Weapons Dalek]] is the last one the Dalek Emperor throws at you. It later reappears to try and send Vortech through a portal. |
| 48 | ** The minikits for the main level form the telescope from "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS28E2ToothAndClaw Tooth and Claw]]". |
| 49 | ** An Arcade Dock in this level allows you to play ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xybots Xybots]]''. |
| 50 | * [[Franchise/TheDCU Painting the Town Black]] |
| 51 | ** The minikits in this area are the same ones used in the ''VideoGame/LegoBatman'' games, which are in turn {{Palette Swap}}s of the ''VideoGame/LegoStarWars'' minikits. |
| 52 | ** In the opening scene, the [=LexCorp=] Building from ''[[VideoGame/LegoBatman Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes]]'' is prominently visible. |
| 53 | ** An Arcade Dock near the gate to Barad-dûr allows you to play ''VideoGame/{{Paperboy}}''. |
| 54 | ** During the initial confrontation with Sauron, the Dark Lord refers to Gandalf as "Gandalf Stormcrow" (''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' establishes that "Stormcrow" is a derogatory epithet given to Gandalf by his enemies) and Wyldstyle makes plans to use the name "Stormcrow" after she tires of "Wyldstyle" (''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'' establishes that "Wyldstyle" is an alias and she changes names when she gets bored with her current name). |
| 55 | ** Among the items summoned during the BossBattle with Sauron is a cart, which Gandalf recognizes as "[his] old cart." [[https://brickset.com/sets/9469-1/Gandalf-Arrives Indeed it is.]] |
| 56 | * [[Franchise/BackToTheFuture Once Upon a Time Machine in the West]] |
| 57 | ** In the very first seconds of the level, you can very faintly hear the "[[WildWest old west]]" version of "Everything is Awesome" from ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'' that Vitruvius was playing on his piano. |
| 58 | ** One of the townsfolk you help in the first section is [[Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII Seamus McFly]], who's stuck in a pile of manure -- a fate normally reserved for the Tannen family. |
| 59 | ** Confused by Doc Brown asking "When am I?", Batman asks if he hit his head. Doc Brown hitting his head is how he thought of the Flux Capacitor, the ''Back to the Future'' Foundation Element and the device that makes time travel possible. |
| 60 | ** In order to impede the trio's attempts to reach him, Lord Vortech summons [[Series/DoctorWho The]] ''[[Series/DoctorWho Valiant]]'' to crash and act as a wall. |
| 61 | ** A [=DeLorean=] Treadmill during the boss battle against Vortech takes you to [[Film/BackToTheFuturePartII Hill Valley 2015]]. |
| 62 | ** The [[WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}} MechDragon]] is summoned to deal with Vortech's eagle form. |
| 63 | ** [[Franchise/{{Batman}} The Batwing]] and [[Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheReturnOfTheKing Grond]] are also summoned to assist in the fight against Vortech. |
| 64 | ** An Arcade Dock in the beginning of the stage allows you to play ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber_(video_game) Timber!]]'' |
| 65 | * [[VideoGame/Portal2 Aperture Science Enrichment Center / GLaD to See You]] |
| 66 | ** Prior to the level, X-PO describes the foundation element as a "delicious and moist" cake, directly quoting a line from "Still Alive", the game's theme song. |
| 67 | ** The doors and behind-the scenes areas are based on those of the original ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'', while everything else follows the ''Portal 2'' aesthetics. The High Energy Pellets from the original Portal also appear in a few rooms. |
| 68 | ** Homer gets summoned to destroy some blockage, while [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsonsMovie stuck on a wrecking ball]]. The animation that plays is identical to the scene from the movie, down to the ball suddenly jerking to the left after appearing to have stopped moving. |
| 69 | ** In the first main backstage area, you can find the [[EasterEgg singing turrets]] from ''Portal 2''. |
| 70 | *** Hoopy the Hoop also appears in this scene, however it only becomes visible by executing a tricky camera angle. |
| 71 | ** To serve as a distraction during the boss fight, the player has to summon, [[UnexpectedCharacter of all things,]] [[spoiler: [[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey HAL 9000]]]]. |
| 72 | ** Scattered around the level are radios that, if struck, play the Latin version of the "Still Alive" theme which was heard in the original game (the original version of the song, however, is not heard). |
| 73 | ** In certain test chambers, Doug Rattmann can briefly be seen behind cracks in the walls and ceiling. |
| 74 | * [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Riddle-earth]] |
| 75 | ** When Gandalf identifies that they are in Middle-earth, Wyldstyle asks if he meant Middle-Zealand. Middle-Zealand is one of the realms in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'', as a joke on how ''Lord of the Rings'' was filmed in New Zealand. |
| 76 | ** The minikits are boxes with treasure sticking out, taken directly from ''[[VideoGame/LEGOTheLordOfTheRings LEGO The Hobbit]]''. |
| 77 | ** To break apart the debris blocking the entrance to Minas Tirith, you have to summon the Animal King turret from the ending sequence of ''VideoGame/Portal2''. |
| 78 | ** One minikit in this level requires you to smash 5 [[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries Riddler Trophies]]. |
| 79 | ** [=GLaDOS=] outfits some orcs with personality core helmets, based on the simpler design from the first ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'' game. |
| 80 | ** Before the Balrog appears, a [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail small white rabbit]] hops in front of the door. |
| 81 | ** One of the items summoned to defeat the Balrog is [[WesternAnimation/LegendsOfChima the Fire Lion]]. |
| 82 | ** You can travel in the TARDIS from Minas Tirith to [[spoiler: [[Recap/DoctorWhoS33E2DinosaursOnASpaceship the Silurian spaceship]]]]. |
| 83 | ** An Arcade Dock in this level allows you to play ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vindicators Vindicators]]''. |
| 84 | * [[Film/Ghostbusters1984 The Phantom Zone]] |
| 85 | ** The background music is a recurring piece from the first film. |
| 86 | ** While tangentially related to the amount of ghosts (i.e. "phantoms") that appear in the ''Ghostbusters'' world, the title refers to the prison dimension used on [[ComicBook/{{Superman}} Krypton]] for criminals such as General Zod, who is the boss of the level. |
| 87 | *** Becomes HilariousInHindsight as the Phantom Zone would be a pivotal location in ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoBatmanMovie'', which itself would later be featured in ''LEGO Dimensions'' as a Story Pack. |
| 88 | ** In the opening cutscene, some ghosts can be seen hijacking an ice cream van from ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'' and its accompanying toyline. |
| 89 | ** A movie theater in the level announces that it's showing ''Ghost Smashers'', one of the working titles for ''Ghostbusters''. |
| 90 | ** The bonus area for this level involves the RMS ''[[UsefulNotes/RMSTitanic Titanic]]'', as it appeared in ''Film/GhostbustersII''. |
| 91 | ** A [=DeLorean=] Treadmill in the bonus area takes you between June 16, 1989 (''Ghostbusters II'''s release date) and April 13, 1912 (One day before the ''Titanic'' sank) |
| 92 | ** Climbing to the bow of the Titanic reveals two skeletons in the [[Film/Titanic1997 famous pose of Jack and Rose]]. |
| 93 | ** You summon the [[WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie Double Decker Couch]] to climb the broken staircase in Ghostbuster HQ. |
| 94 | ** An Arcade Dock in the Firehouse allows you to play ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RoadBlasters RoadBlasters]]''. |
| 95 | * All Your Bricks Are Belong to Us |
| 96 | ** The title refers to "''All your base are belong to us''," a [[MemeticMutation rather memetic]] quote from ''VideoGame/ZeroWing''. (While Zero Wing wasn't made by Midway, the quote was likely chosen to represent gamer culture as a whole.) |
| 97 | ** The first section of this level is based on ''VideoGame/{{Defender}}''. |
| 98 | ** A hacking minigame in this section resembles a VideoGame/PacMan maze, complete with four viruses starting next to each other. |
| 99 | ** A [=DeLorean=] Treadmill in this section takes you between February 23, 1981 (''Defender''[='=]s release date) and September 27, 2015 (''Lego Dimensions''[='=] release date). |
| 100 | ** The area the [=DeLorean=] Treadmill takes you to is the GSA Base from the 2002 reboot of ''Defender''. |
| 101 | ** The second section is based on ''VideoGame/{{Gauntlet}}'', containing the same AnnouncerChatter and [[CriticalAnnoyance low-health sound]] as the original game. |
| 102 | ** If Gandalf or The Wicked Witch are low on health, the announcer may inform the player that "Wizard needs food badly," referring to one of the original game's playable classes. |
| 103 | ** The third section is based on ''[[VideoGame/{{Sprint 2}} Super Sprint]]''. |
| 104 | ** The fourth and final section is based on ''VideoGame/{{Robotron 2084}}'', with the characters moving parallel to the ground to mimic the original game's viewpoint. |
| 105 | * [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Mystery Mansion Mash-Up]] |
| 106 | ** The way Shaggy and Scooby leave in the Mystery Machine during the intro cutscene is reminiscent of [[WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou the original Hanna-Barbera cartoon]], with the van only seen from the front, back, or profile. |
| 107 | ** One of the first minikits in the level requires you to dig up and rebuild [[Recap/ScoobyDooWhereAreYouS1E8FoulPlayInFunland Charlie the Funland Robot]]. |
| 108 | ** Inside the mansion is a portrait of the Explorer, from ''LEGO Minifigures'' Series 2. |
| 109 | ** The mooks that the mummy ([[spoiler: Lord Vortech]]) summons during the boss section come from ''Pharaoh's Quest'', a discontinued 2011 LEGO theme. |
| 110 | ** Trap doors and moving walls inside the mansion are lighter than the rest of the background, referencing the original cartoon's frequent use of ConspicuouslyLightPatch. |
| 111 | ** The music used in the caves and inside the HauntedCastle are both taken from the Howling Peaks cave and chalet music from ''VideoGame/ScoobyDooAndTheSpookySwamp''. |
| 112 | * Prime Time |
| 113 | ** The minikits for this level are explicitly ''Film/JurassicWorld'' fossil crates. |
| 114 | ** The [[VideoGame/LegoBatman Joker-Bot]], [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Balrog]] and the [[Film/Ghostbusters1984 Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man]] attempt to take a swipe against the heroes. |
| 115 | ** The bonus area is [[WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie Cloud Cuckoo Land]], with various characters such as [[ComicBook/TheJoker the Joker]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}} Master Chen]], [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Sauron (in his box from)]], and [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} the turrets]] hanging out. |
| 116 | *** A tower in Cloud Cuckoo Land is topped with the head of a giant LEGO-built minifigure, specifically [[http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=3723-1#T=S&O={} this one]]. |
| 117 | ** An Arcade Dock in this level allows you to play ''VideoGame/MarbleMadness''. |
| 118 | * The End is Tri |
| 119 | ** The level starts [[GravityScrew on the side of]] [[WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie The Octan Tower]], then moves through [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Isengard]] and the rooftops of [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Gotham City]]. These three locations come from the homeworlds of the Starter Pack characters. |
| 120 | ** Besides the Octan Logo pasted on them, this level's minikits are the same ones from the first VideoGame/LegoAdaptationGame, ''VideoGame/LegoStarWars''. |
| 121 | ** The bonus area for this area takes place during [[Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheFellowshipOfTheRing Bilbo Baggins' 111th birthday party]]. While Bilbo himself has already left, Merry and Pippin are on dishwashing PunishmentDetail. |
| 122 | ** At Bilbo's party, the Locate keystone can be used to summon a jukebox that plays "[[Music/HueyLewisAndTheNews The Power of Love]]" from ''Film/BackToTheFuture1''. |
| 123 | ** During the fight against the Tri, one of the items that comes crashing down onto the arena is [[WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie Wyldystle's Super Cycle]]. Ironically, it needs to be Master Rebuilt to progress in the fight. |
| 124 | ** An Arcade Dock at the start of the level allows you to play ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blasteroids Blasteroids]]''. |
| 125 | * The Final Dimension |
| 126 | ** The minikits in this level have CHI symbols on them, indicating that they come from the ''WesternAnimation/LegendsOfChima'' World. |
| 127 | ** A hidden area in this level is the [[WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}} Destiny's Bounty]]. |
| 128 | ** One of the objects you summon to destroy Vortech's "green square" is a Rocket Sentry from ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'', albeit a modified quad-rocket version. |
| 129 | ** Among the many people teaming up to stop Vortech is [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Mystery Inc.]] This means that they are taking part in defeating a cosmic being planning on bringing about the end of the universe. [[WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooMysteryIncorporated They actually went through something similar before.]] |

| 133 | %%Please try and add what you can to this folder! |
| 134 | * ''Film/Ghostbusters2016'' |
| 135 | ** Paranormal Beginnings |
| 136 | *** The first cutscene opens with The Joker driving past Aldridge Mansion in the [[Franchise/BackToTheFuture DeLorean Time Machine]], and Doc Brown chasing after it. |
| 137 | *** When Erin, Abby, and Holtzmann meet with the Aldridge personnel, Marty [=McFly=] Jr., [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Velma]], and [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} Chell]] all pass by. The [=DeLorean=] and the Mystery Machine also drive past. |
| 138 | ** Ghostbusting! |
| 139 | *** [[Series/DoctorWho The Twelfth Doctor]], [[Film/JurassicWorld Owen and Blue]], [[WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie Emmet]], and [[Creator/MidwayGames Gamer Kid]] all appear at the subway station after Patty's introduction. |
| 140 | *** Patty reads [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime The Enchiridion]] while waiting to report her sighting to the Ghostbusters. |
| 141 | ** The Mercado Building |
| 142 | *** The receptionist who shares an actress with Janine exclaims, "We got one!", when asked to reserve a room with a view. |
| 143 | *** The boiler room has a secret area set in yet another part of [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} Aperture Science]], including the cake room seen in the ending of the first ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}''. |
| 144 | *** In the cutscene when the level ends, Bad Cop / Good Cop is covering crowd control. |
| 145 | ** Breaking the Barrier |
| 146 | *** A movie theater marquee advertises ''Ghost Smashers III'', a nod to a working title of the original ''Ghostbusters'' and the fact this is technically the third ''Ghostbusters'' movie, and ''Groomsmen'', apparently a GenderFlip of one of Creator/PaulFeig's, Creator/KristenWiig's, and Creator/MelissaMcCarthy's ''own'' movies, ''Film/{{Bridesmaids}}''. |
| 147 | *** The parade float scene is altered to include both an [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime Ice King]] and a [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Dr. Eggman]] float. The arrival of the Eggman float causes the music to change to his theme from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure''. |
| 148 | ** The Battle for Times Square |
| 149 | *** A poster advertising a "Musical on Ice" features the Ice Skater, from ''LEGO Minifigures'' Series 4. |
| 150 | *** Another poster beside it advertises a movie called [[Film/MissionImpossible1996 "Really Tough Mission".]] |
| 151 | *** One minikit requires you to summon a smaller version of [[Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial E.T's mothership]]. |
| 152 | *** One of the bonus side areas accessible using the Vine Cut ability is a florist's shop, referencing a scene cut from the final film. |
| 153 | ** The Final Showdown |
| 154 | *** During the ghost dimension part of the level, the player can earn a minikit by rescuing [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Dorothy]]. |
| 155 | *** During the post-credits cutscene in the Story Pack, [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Velma]] and [[WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}} Lord Garmadon]] can be seen behind Kevin during the news report. |
| 156 | *** Also during the post-credits scene, [[WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie Emmet]] affixes the Ghostbusters sign to the firehouse when they move in. |
| 157 | |
| 158 | * ''Film/FantasticBeastsAndWhereToFindThem'' |
| 159 | ** Accruing Interest |
| 160 | *** ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} can be seen during the opening cutscene, briefly surfacing from the water as people get off the boat. |
| 161 | *** A secret area in the vault section is [[Film/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallowsPart1 the Lovegood House]], almost identical to its appearance in ''[[VideoGame/LegoHarryPotter LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7]]''. |
| 162 | ** Grand Opening |
| 163 | ** A Walk in the Park |
| 164 | *** During the opening cutscene for this level, [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Scooby and Shaggy]] are disguised as jewelry store mannequins alongside the niffler. |
| 165 | *** When Newt Scamander attaches wings to a car to make it fly out of the way, he hopes the idea won't catch on. Of course, 70 years later [[Film/HarryPotterAndTheChamberOfSecrets Arthur Weasley]] has a flying Ford Anglia[[labelnote:*]]Which incidentally appears in the game as Harry Potter's vehicle[[/labelnote]]. |
| 166 | *** In addition, when Jacob says the word Abracadabra, Newt warns him to be careful how he says it, referencing the killing curse ''[[Franchise/HarryPotter Avada Kedavra]]''. |
| 167 | *** A secret [[Series/DoctorWho TARDIS]] access point takes you to [[spoiler:the halls of the ''Series/RedDwarf'']]. |
| 168 | *** Thanks to the Locate keystone, [[Film/TheGoonies Sloth]] gets to ride on a stampeding erumpent. |
| 169 | *** During the level's end cutscene, [[Film/TheWizardOfOz The Wicked Witch]] [[BewitchedAmphibians turns Langdon into a frog]], with one of her flying monkeys close by. |
| 170 | ** A Trial with Style |
| 171 | ** Demiguise Double-Cross |
| 172 | *** In the opening cutscene, Modesty Barebone is shown holding the Spooky Girl's teddy bear, from ''LEGO Minifigures'' Series 12. |
| 173 | *** Some of the patrons in ''The Blind Pig'' include [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Saruman the White]] and [[Series/DoctorWho an oddly-animate Weeping Angel]]. [[BrickJoke The Wicked Witch reappears, along with a frog (most likely Langdon).]] And [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Two-Face]], for some reason. |
| 174 | *** While haggling with Gnarlack, Newt offers him the One Ring, causing Gollum to appear and attempt to snatch it. When Gnarlack refuses it ("I got five"), Newt pulls out a Red Brick, the cheat unlock mechanic in all [[VideoGame/LegoAdaptationGame LEGO Adaptation Games]] including ''LEGO Dimensions''. |
| 175 | *** [[Film/{{Gremlins}} Greta Gremlin]] gets summoned using the Locate keystone to distract Gnarlack during his boss fight. Unlike most examples listed here, she is not a blink-and-you-miss-it cutscene [[TheCameo cameo]] and is actually present during a playable portion, although the player characters cannot interact with her. After Jacob punches out Gnarlack, [[AbhorrentAdmirer she switches her affections to him, much to his discomfort]]. |
| 176 | *** A hidden TARDIS pad takes the player to S.T.A.R. Labs from Series/TheFlash2014, able to access both the main cortex and [[spoiler: Reverse-Flash's]] secret room. In place of the 2024 newspaper, the [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS13E13TheOldManAndTheKey "Old Man Yells at Cloud" paper]] appears instead. |
| 177 | ** Obscurus For-Sure-Us |
| 178 | *** On a billboard near the start of the level is the Flamenco Dancer, from ''LEGO Minifigures'' Series 6. |
| 179 | *** As the chase heads into the subway, some MACUSA Aurors Apparate onto the scene and proceed to [[PaperThinDisguise clumsily disguise themselves]] in front of the crowd of onlookers. The wizard transfigures his hat into a hard hat, while the witch transfigures her hat into a bunny hat (like the one worn by the Bunny Suit Guy from ''LEGO Minifigures'' Series 7), Lord Vortech's helmet, and Franchise/{{Batman}}'s cowl (among other things) before her irritated colleague turns it into a hard hat. |
| 180 | *** [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Dorothy]] is among the aforementioned crowd, and she later splashes the wizard with a bucket of water (hey, it works on wicked witches!) while his back is turned. The annoyed wizard assumes that ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} (who is also standing nearby) splashed him and vengefully [[ForcedTransformation turns him into a fish]]. |
| 181 | |
| 182 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoBatmanMovie'' |
| 183 | ** The Energy Plant |
| 184 | *** Using the Phase Keystone during the battle lets you summon [[Film/JurassicWorld a pterosaur in its nest]], [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings a catapult]], and [[VideoGame/LEGOCityUndercover Hayes' farm, with Chase McCain in his farmer disguise]]. |
| 185 | *** A [[Music/Animals1977 floating pig]] appears above the power plant. |
| 186 | ** The Fortress of Solitude |
| 187 | *** The Music/JohnWilliams ''[[Film/SupermanTheMovie Superman]]'' theme is used in a puzzle. Notably, the fact that the theme includes a repeating sequence is actually part of the puzzle, as it means that one of the switches (each of which plays a musical phrase) has to be hit twice. |
| 188 | *** Using the Phase Keystone while heading towards the Phantom Zone Projector lets you summon [[WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie a crossbow from The Old West, a chunk of a Bricksburg construction site]], and [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} a piece of a test chamber involving a conveyor belt]]. |
| 189 | ** Arkham Attack |
| 190 | *** Prior to starting the level, Batman is asked to help some role-playing Arkham staff assemble a life-size [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Balrog]]. Fittingly for this game, he teleports the real deal in instead. |

| 193 | *** Using the Phase Keystone during the fight with Franchise/KingKong lets you summon [[Series/TheATeam B.A. Baracus' van and a crate of TNT]], the ''VideoGame/{{Defender}}'' Spaceship, and [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} a bunch of Weighted Storage Cubes and a single Turret]]. |
| 194 | *** Batman, Robin, and Batgirl pass [[Series/Batman1966 another Dynamic Duo]] while falling off of Wayne Tower. |
| 195 | *** After Robin notices Film/{{Gremlins}} attacking the Scuttler, he exclaims, "[[Recap/TheTwilightZoneS5E123NightmareAt20000Feet There's something on the wing!]]", while the picture {{Art Shift}}s to DeliberatelyMonochrome, and a SuspiciouslySimilarSong to ''Series/TheTwilightZone1959'' theme plays. |
| 196 | ** The Phantom Zone |
| 197 | *** For whatever reason, the Phantom Zone holds [[Film/JurassicWorld numerous ACU Troopers]][[note]]ACU Troopers are also used as ''Jurassic World''[='=]s enemy {{Mooks}} in the Mystery Dimension BonusStage[[/note]] and a version of ''[[Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheReturnOfTheKing Minas Tirith]]''. To progress, the player must ''assemble Grond and use it to destroy Minas Tirith'' -- namely, what the ''bad guys'' were trying to do in the source material. |
| 198 | ** The Final Showdown |
| 199 | *** Using the Phase Keystone during the battle with [[Franchise/HarryPotter Lord Voldemort]] lets you summon [[WesternAnimation/{{Ninjago}} the Titan Mech]], [[Film/Ghostbusters2016 the Ecto-1]], and [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime a candy crossbow]]. |

| 219 | ** The character in peril is Cave Johnson, uploaded into a personality core. In an early draft of ''Portal 2''[='=]s story, Cave Johnson was to appear in a similar form, and you would have to power him down to progress. |

| 237 | ** The Level Pack's minikit is the [[Recap/DoctorWhoS32E4TheDoctorsWife makeshift TARDIS console]]. However, due to an error, the game displays it as the standard level's telescope. |
| 238 | * ''Film/Ghostbusters1984'' Level Pack |
| 239 | ** The Level Pack is based on the plot of the original ''Ghostbusters'' movie. |

| 269 | ** In order to reach the Lich, Finn has to use the Locate keystone to summon [[Recap/AdventureTimeS5E1FinntheHuman the body of Simon Petrokov and a frozen mushroom bomb]], which thaws and explodes to reveal a hole. |
| 270 | ** Part of the level involves going through the [[Recap/AdventureTimeS1E8BusinessTime gauntlet dock.]] You get a minikit for destroying all of the weapons on it. |
| 271 | * ''[[Film/MissionImpossibleFilmSeries Mission: Impossible]]'' Level Pack |
| 272 | ** The pack adapts the events of the [[Film/MissionImpossible original film]]. |

| 276 | *** The [=PerfEcto=] can be seen sailing down a canal. |
| 277 | *** Ethan encounters the TARDIS while trying to find a pay phone, much to his confusion. The Doctor actually peeks out after Ethan leaves. |

| 287 | *** This is followed by a LEGO variation of the first ''Sonic'' title screen, but since Sonic doesn't have a finger, he wags a ring instead. |
| 288 | ** The first section of the Level Pack is, naturally, GreenHillZone. |
| 289 | ** Between each level section is a special stage; Aesthetically, they resemble those from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2'', while the background has the alternating fish and birds from [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 the original]]. |
| 290 | ** During the cutscene after the end of Green Hill Zone, Eggman briefly juggles the six Chaos Emeralds he has, just like he did in the BadEnding of ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1''. |
| 291 | ** The second section of is [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Emerald Coast]], even starting with the killer whale chasing Sonic. |
| 292 | *** Sonic builds the [[VideoGame/SegaSuperstars Sonic Speedster]] out of a speedboat resembling its water transformation in ''Racing Transformed''. |
| 293 | *** Dr. Eggman almost calls himself Dr. Robotnik, his original name in North America. |
| 294 | *** During the Emerald Coast boss fight, Sonic mentions that Eggman's plan is as fake as his mustache, referencing an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJyQ_H8Bc0Y unused Omochao line]] from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2''. |
| 295 | *** Also during the boss fight, Eggman calls Sonic a "cocky needlemouse", referencing [[http://info.sonicretro.org/Mr._Needlemouse his original prototype name.]] |
| 296 | *** Sonic similarly refers to Eggman once as "Fatty Lobotnik", an early name for the character during the first game's development. |
| 297 | ** The third section of the level pack is the [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 Death]] [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles Egg]], where Dr. Eggman summons [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 Robo Sonic]], [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles Mecha Sonic]], and [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehogCD Metal Sonic]] using the Locate keystone. |
| 298 | *** Upon arriving here, Sonic calls Dr. Eggman "[[VideoGame/SonicColors Baldy McNosehair]]." |
| 299 | *** Prior to summoning Robo Sonic, Eggman says "[[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Get a load of this!]]" He then says it again before summoning Mecha Sonic and points out that he already said that, referencing the tendency for him to repeat his boss lines in ''Sonic Adventure''. |
| 300 | *** After Sonic defeats Robo Sonic and Mecha Sonic, Eggman respectively calls the robots a "bolt brain" and an "automated idiot", two insults previously said by his counterpart from the ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfSonicTheHedgehog'' cartoon. |
| 301 | ** In the post-boss cutscene, one of the dimensional rifts contains a UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis and [[VideoGame/CrazyTaxi a taxi that nearly swerves into Sonic.]] |
| 302 | ** The fourth section is based off of [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 Metropolis Zone]]. Sonic even points this out in-game. |
| 303 | *** The two robots Sonic has to destroy in this section are part of the [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure E-100 series]]. |
| 304 | *** To provoke them, Sonic builds an Eggman Item Monitor. Breaking these in the original Genesis titles caused you to take damage. |
| 305 | ** The fifth section is based off of Marble Zone. |
| 306 | *** A portal in this section sends out [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles the infamous barrel from Carnival Night Zone]]. Another one sends out [[VideoGame/SonicR the Tails Doll]]. |
| 307 | *** Omochao makes an appearance, and tries to help Sonic out as best as it can, [[AnnoyingVideoGameHelper but proves to be more of an annoyance than an asset.]] |
| 308 | ** The sixth section is based off of Labyrinth Zone. |
| 309 | *** When Big mentions this is where a Chaos Emerald is in the preceding cutscene, Sonic flashes back to the drowning music, complete with a brickified version of his ''Sonic 1'' sprite. |
| 310 | *** Also during this cutscene, Shadow is shown [[VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog holding a gun]]. Knuckles [[TakeThat knocks it out of his hand into the vortex]], to Shadow's annoyance. |
| 311 | *** The Labyrinth Zone's design is heavily based on the [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog4 Lost Labyrinth Zone]]. The music that plays in the area is also taken from that level. |
| 312 | *** A buildable portal within Labyrinth Zone takes you to the [[WesternAnimation/AdventureTime Breakfast Kingdom]]. |
| 313 | *** Batman, Gandalf, and Wyldstyle make brief appearances in the post-section cutscene. |
| 314 | ** The final section of the Level Pack is a return to the Death Egg. |
| 315 | *** The first boss fight here is, of course, the Death Egg robot. Sonic isn't too amused by its presence, though, and mentions that this is [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 the fourth]] [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog4 time Eggman's]] [[VideoGame/SonicGenerations used it]]. |
| 316 | *** When Sonic goes Super towards the end of the battle with Chaos, he shouts that he's taking him down "[[VideoGame/SonicAdventure like it's 1999.]]" |
| 317 | * ''Film/TheGoonies'' Level Pack |
| 318 | ** The Level Pack is based on the original film, starting from the point where Chunk is kidnapped and meets Sloth. |
| 319 | ** Some of the cars in the race seen in the main titles include BA Baracus' van, the Mystery Machine, the Ecto-1, K.I.T.T., and the [=DeLorean=] (with hover conversion).[[note]]For bonus points, ''The Goonies'' shares the ''Back to the Future'' Trilogy's Executive Producer, Creator/StevenSpielberg.[[/note]] |
| 320 | ** Sloth accidentally activates a switch that brings down some Shower Gremlins.[[note]]''The Goonies'' shares the ''Gremlins'' movies' writer, Creator/ChrisColumbus, and executive producer, Steven Spielberg.[[/note]] |
| 321 | ** The player saves Brand and Andy from the octopus by [[spoiler:repairing a boom box and making the octopus dance]], evoking a DeletedScene in which [[spoiler:Data uses a Walkman to save his friends from an octopus]]. (Some televisings of ''The Goonies'' put this scene back in.) As a DiscontinuityNod, the couple agrees that this is [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain too stupid to ever speak of again]] -- though Data declares that he'll still tell everyone, foreshadowing an OrphanedReference that somehow didn't stay on the cutting room floor. |
| 322 | ** Francis Fratelli loosely quotes Music/CyndiLauper's "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" ("I guess those Goonies *were* good enough...") after the player defeats him. |
| 323 | ** A trapped Mouth sarcastically claims to be "filming a music video with a bunch of pro wrestlers", in reference to several Wrestling/{{WW|E}}F Superstars appearing alongside most of the original Goonies in the music video for "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough". |
| 324 | ** Some of the Goonies' banter in the final sections of the level reference past events in the movie, such as Brand owing Data's sister a new bike, and Mikey recalling the money he took back from the wishing well. |
| 325 | ** A TARDIS station in the fourth section of the level takes you to [[Recap/DoctorWhoS4E3ThePowerOfTheDaleks the planet Vulcan]]. It also includes a LEGO-fied version of the First Doctor's [[Recap/DoctorWhoS4E2TheTenthPlanet regeneration]] on an InUniverse TV, and the original [[Recap/DoctorWhoS4E9TheEvilOfTheDaleks Dalek Emperor]]. |
| 326 | ** After the Goonies escape the cave, B.A. Baracus, Marty [=McFly=], Michael Knight, Doc Brown, and some Gremlins join the welcoming party. |

| 341 | ** As in ''Portal 2'', there are monitors scattered around the adventure world that have Wheatley's face on them. Destroying all of them gives you a gold brick. |
| 342 | ** [=GLaDOS=] will comment about the various upgrades that can be paid for with studs, then suggest you may have thought that the facility was powered by wishes. Creator/EllenMcLain played a FairyGodmother in charge of a facility that granted wishes in ''Wish It, Inc.'' |
| 343 | ** At one point when exploring Old Aperture, a recording of Cave Johnson saying he's not made of glass, and asking Caroline to commission a wing made entirely of glass, is played. Said wing was the broken one [=GLaDOS=] had to clean up herself MUCH later.[[note]]The line itself is one that went unused in ''Portal 2''.[[/note]] |

| 353 | * ''Midway Arcade'' World |
| 354 | ** After clearing George's mission, he mentions that the only way his rampage could be topped would be if somebody rampaged across the entire world, a sly reference to ''Rampage: World Tour''. |
| 355 | * ''Film/Ghostbusters2016'' World |
| 356 | ** A passerby will wonder if there's a world where "we're the ghosts, and the ghosts bust us," similar to the premise of the episode "Flip Side" from ''WesternAnimation/TheRealGhostbusters''. |
| 357 | *** One of Holtzmann's quests[[note]]Requiring use of the Rip keystone to repair a strange mechanism in the firehouse basement[[/note]] takes players to a ghost-based New York featuring the Pulsebusters, which are identical in spirit to the Peoplebusters from the aforementioned episode. It also takes them to the world of the original ''Ghostbusters'' movies. |
| 358 | ** Similar to the Eggman and Ice King parade balloons from the story pack, Times Square has a parade balloon shaped like Franchise/{{Sonic|TheHedgehog}}. Unlike the Eggman and Ice King balloons, however, Sonic parade balloons do exist and have been featured in the real Macy's Thanksgiving Day parades (which the parade in ''Ghostbusters'' is based on). |
| 359 | * ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' World |
| 360 | ** One hidden golden brick involves playing through the [[Recap/AdventureTimeS2E16GuardiansOfSunshine Guardians of Sunshine]] game. It even ends with Finn entering the combo move to defeat Silly Sam. |
| 361 | ** Using the hidden TARDIS station takes you to an area inspired by "[[Recap/AdventureTimeS5E14SimonAndMarcy Simon And Marcy]]". [[spoiler:You find yourself 996 years in the past, where Simon sends you on a quest to find ingredients to make chicken soup for Marcy.]] |

| 363 | ** Exploring the basement of the Ice King's mountain allows the player to find Fionna's Crystal Sword (Ice King being the one who created Fionna and Cake). |

| 365 | * ''[[Film/MissionImpossibleFilmSeries Mission: Impossible]]'' World |
| 366 | ** Some missions are directly inspired by the sequels' plots, such as [[Film/MissionImpossibleII curing the man-made Chimera virus]], or [[Film/MissionImpossibleIII claiming the allegedly dangerous Rabbit's Foot]]. |
| 367 | ** The knock that Kittridge uses at the end of the "Knock-Knock" mission [[spoiler: to order fast food]] is the opening theme from ''Film/TheTerminator''. And if you die during said mission, Kittridge's cry of "Agent? Agent! AGENT!" will be [[Videogame/MetalGearSolid rather familiar...]] |
| 368 | ** Kittridge delivers one particular mission briefing from a phone booth, harking back to Film/MissionImpossibleGhostProtocol. |
| 369 | ** One of the Australian civilians claims to have heard about a sanctuary for [[Creator/JohnWoo doves that fly in slow-motion]]. |

| 375 | ** It's raining in the Ministry again, and Arthur Weasley mentions that Reg Cattermole "isn't himself lately". |
| 376 | ** You can reveal Number 12, Grimmauld Place, and it expands outward from the row of houses like the films. |

| 378 | * ''Series/TheATeam'' World |
| 379 | ** The airport by the gateway has the series' theme music playing in it. |

| 383 | * ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' World |
| 384 | ** The portal to the Sonic the Hedgehog World is modeled after the iconic loop-de-loop from [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1 Green Hill Zone]]. |

| 386 | *** Paying to rebuild the workshop will also prompt Omochao to start singing part of the refrain from [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure "Believe in Myself"]]. |
| 387 | ** Knuckles' mission is called [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles LEGO Dimensions & Knuckles]], itself a reference to the internet meme of adding "''& Knuckles''" to the end of unrelated video game titles. While fighting, he also quotes a few of the songs from his levels in Videogame/SonicAdventure2. At the end of the mission, he says anyone should think twice before taking the Master Emerald from him, including anyone who’s a [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 bat]]. |
| 388 | ** He may also remark how he might have needed [[WesternAnimation/SonicBoom a bandage]] if a Badnik had gotten him. |
| 389 | ** When you talk to Amy, she laments how people treat her like a damsel for [[VideoGame/SonicCD getting kidnapped by a robotic doppleganger of her crush]] and forget about how [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure she reunited a bird with its family]] or how [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 she helped break Sonic out of prison]]. She later mentions how she infiltrated the Egg Fleet to rescue Froggy and Chocola, referencing ''VideoGame/SonicHeroes''. Also, at one point while fighting Eggman’s badniks, she shouts [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 “Have no fear… Amy Rose is here!”]] |
| 390 | ** Shadow's mission [[Videogame/SonicAdventure2 quotes his promise to Maria, and regularly makes references to "fakers".]] He also drops some of his A-Rank quotes like [[VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog "Hmph.

| 393 | ** Eggman's mission references his infamous "Yosh!" and "Get A Load Of This!" lines from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' and ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'', and is about gathering Sonic's favourite food, chilli dogs. In addition, he references [[VideoGame/DoctorRobotniksMeanBeanMachine his Mean Bean Machine]] when you pick up a certain chilli dog, and another line has him go [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure "No way! I can't believe this!"]] because [[VideoGame/SonicUnleashed Orbot]] unfriended him on [[BlandNameProduct Eggbook]]. |
| 394 | ** Omochao will mention the [[Videogame/SonicGenerations Time Eater]] when wondering what happened to one of the restorations. |
| 395 | ** One of the restorations is an Eggman-themed carnival ride, featuring a voice-over by Eggman himself. He says "[[VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog You know what they say, the more the merrier!]]" when you get on the ride, quotes multiple boss lines from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'' while riding, and sometimes sings a part of his theme song from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' after the ride is finished. |
| 396 | ** You can find the Hidden Palace Zone, and completing a puzzle will result in Eggman trying to steal the Master Emerald, only for it to [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 drop on the floor and shatter.]] |
| 397 | ** The Death Egg Zone sub-area is primarily based on the ''VideoGame/SonicAndKnuckles'' version, but also features the gravity-flipping switches and background music from [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 Crazy Gadget]]. |
| 398 | ** The Ice Cap Zone music is based on ''VideoGame/SonicAndKnuckles'', but if you activate the snowboard race, the music will change to that of another [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Ice Cap Zone]]. |
| 399 | * ''[[Film/Gremlins1984 Gremlins]]'' World |
| 400 | ** Certain civilians will mention their stock broker telling them to invest in "canned food and water pistols", a {{Bowdlerised}} version of something the Brain Gremlin advised a stock broker to tell their clients in ''Film/Gremlins2TheNewBatch''.[[note]]The original quote said "shotguns" instead of "water pistols".[[/note]] Other lines mention [[Film/{{Gremlins}} a man dressed as Santa getting stuck in the chimney]] and [[Film/Gremlins2TheNewBatch plants being unauthorized in the workplace]]. |
| 401 | ** One gold brick has you activating Mrs. Deagle's motorized chair escalator, sending her flying out of her bedroom window. This is how a Gremlin killed her in the original film, but this time she survives. |
| 402 | ** If you look at the clock tower, it's stopped at 10:04 PM, a reference to the fact that the set from ''Back To The Future'' was reused for Gremlins. |
| 403 | * ''Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial'' World |
| 404 | ** The gateway is based off the entrance to E.T.'s spaceship. |
| 405 | ** During a puzzle that re-enacts the frog rescue scene, you will turn on a projector screen that shows a film called "A Boy's Life". A Boy's Life was the codename of the E.T. film when it was in production. |
| 406 | ** A teacher worries how "Principal Ford" will react to the broken school sign, in reference to a DeletedScene from the movie, in which Creator/HarrisonFord portrayed Elliot's principal. |
| 407 | ** For one gold brick, you have to break ten bowls filled with orange lego pieces. If you're a candy fan, you'll realise that they represent packets of Reese's Pieces, the candy that led E.T. to Elliot. |
| 408 | * ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoBatmanMovie'' World |
| 409 | ** While in this Adventure World, or in any of its Story Pack Levels, DC Comics Batman changes into the ''LEGO Movie'' version of the Caped Crusader. He can change into this everywhere else once you get the "Always Batman" Red Brick. |
| 410 | ** Once you've renovated Gotham's clock tower, a gold brick inside requires you to put together 3 computers with the Batgirl logo in the center of the room. These are pretty clearly meant to represent Oracle's command center. |
| 411 | ** After rebuilding the Batgirl computers, you can use a [=DeLorean=] treadmill to travel from February 16, 2017 (the day the LEGO Batman Movie Story Pack was released) to June 8, 2025, some time during the events of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. Going downstairs and unlocking a secret hatch will reveal Barbara's costume, which resembles that from ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamKnight''. |
| 412 | ** A comic book fan will complain about being unable to get into the store because it's been closed. Once you get it open, he thanks you and hopes they have all [[ComicBook/TheNew52 fifty-two new issues]]. |
| 413 | * ''LEGO City'' World |
| 414 | ** One NPC remarks that she hasn't visited LEGO City in three or four years, the latter number a reference to Chase [=McCain=] joining ''LEGO Dimensions'' about four years after ''VideoGame/LEGOCityUndercover'' came to the UsefulNotes/WiiU. |
| 415 | ** Races in this world use music from ''LEGO City Undercover'', instead of the music that accompanies the other worlds' races. |
| 416 | ** Whenever Chase tries on a new disguise, the jazzy chords that accompanied the finding of new collectibles in ''Undercover'' play. |
| 417 | * ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' World |
| 418 | ** The gateway to the Powerpuff Girls world has a box of "everything nice" and a bottle of Chemical X next to it (as seen in the show's introduction), along with a miniature version of Professor Utonium's house. |
| 419 | ** Princess boasts that she has 480 Gold Bricks, the cumulative total for all Year One levels and Adventure Worlds. |
| 420 | * ''Film/{{Beetlejuice}}'' World |
| 421 | ** Some of the carnival games and decorations -- including a high striker with a devil's face on top, and a head with bat wings and a merry-go-round hat -- take inspiration from the scene where Betelgeuse saves the Maitlands from an exorcism. Lydia refers to the carnival as "Beej-themed", utilizing one of the animated WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}}'s nicknames. |
| 422 | ** The player can help Delia build a model of Betelgeuse's snake form's face. |
| 423 | ** The FetchQuest for the pieces of Lydia's camera has the ''[[Film/TheSixthSense Sixth Sense]]''-esque name, "I Shoot Dead People", which also recalls when she took a picture of the Maitlands dressed as {{Bedsheet Ghost}}s. She explains in the game that her camera broke after a dog tripped her at the bridge -- possibly the same dog that caused the Maitlands to swerve into the river the last time they attempted to drive across the bridge. |
| 424 | ** The Quest for repairing the Waiting Room has the title, "[[Theatre/{{Evita}} Don't Cry For Miss Argentina]]". At the beginning, she complains of a 13% increase in sandworm attacks, quoting a newspaper headline Betelgeuse reads the first time he appears in the movie. |
| 425 | ** After Barbara notices Adam missing, she exclaims, "I hope another dog hasn't attacked him!" |
| 426 | ** The inside of the model of the Maitlands' house shows how their den looked before Delia redecorated it -- albeit with some posters for Betelgeuse's "bio-exorcism" service, which the player can destroy. |
| 427 | ** The Restorations in the model town recreate the aftermath of the Maitlands' demise, with a bridge boasting a hole in its cover, the couple's car flipped upside-down in the river[[note]]B.A. Baracus can help fish it out.[[/note]], and a buildable funeral scene. |
| 428 | ** A fly trapped in some melted chocolate gives shrilly cries of, "[[Film/TheFly1958 Help me, help mee, help meeee!]]" |
| 429 | ** The model town's exit sign reads, "[[RuleOfThree Home Home Home]]", which Barbara chanted in order to teleport herself and Adam out of the model graveyard, and back into their attic. |

| 435 | * Raven summons Betelgeuse by saying his name three times. |
| 436 | * Starfire visits Oz to the accompaniment of actual music from ''The Wizard of Oz'', instead of the covers that ''LEGO Dimensions'' previously used. She also quotes/mimics the Wicked Witch of the West a few times. |
| 437 | * Cyborg exclaims, "Hey, you guuuuuys!", when meeting the Goonies. He also tries to help re-enact their movie's closing scene, in which the Goonies watch One-Eyed Willie's ship sail away, [[spoiler:but his rocket boots accidentally blast a hole in the ship.]] |
| 438 | * Robin sings "Untitled Self Portrait" while confronting the gargoyle. |
| 439 | * The end credits have Music/PuffyAmiYumi's English theme to the 2000s ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' animated series play in the background. |

| 442 | [[folder: Vehicles and Character Interactions]] |
| 443 | * Vehicles and Gadgets |
| 444 | ** The first alternate skin for the Batmobile is the black-and-red color scheme from the 1960s ''Series/Batman1966'' series. |
| 445 | ** The unlockable skins for Benny's spaceship reference three classic LEGO Space themes: M-Tron, Ice Planet 2002, and Classic Space Police. |

| 448 | ** One of the skins for the Companion Cube is the Discouragement Redirection Cube, which its second upgrade functions like. |

| 450 | ** The third skin for Cyborg's Cyber-Guard is based on his design from ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans''. |
| 451 | ** Just like in ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartII'', the Hoverboard goes to a stand-still if it crosses over water while in its non-upgraded form. |
| 452 | ** One of the unlockable skins for [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer's Car]] changes its colour scheme to resemble [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS4E9MrPlow Mr. Plow]]. |

| 458 | ** When Sonic rides the Tornado, rather than sitting in the pilot's seat, Tails appears to pilot it while Sonic stands on the wing, the same way he rides it in the main Sonic games. |
| 459 | *** The first, second and third alternate skins of the Tornado are based on the [[VideoGame/SegaSuperstars Tornado Racer]], the [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Tornado II]]/[[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 Cyclone]] and the plane's [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2 original design]] respectively. |
| 460 | ** E.T.'s Phone Home gadget summons Elliot on his bike, which can fly when ridden, referencing the most famous scene of that film.

| 461 | ** The Sonic Speedster's three alternate skins give it the color schemes of Metal Sonic, Shadow and Super Sonic respectively. |

| 467 | ** The IMF Scrambler bike has a light-up skin that makes it look rather like the vehicles from Film/{{TRON}}. |
| 468 | * Character Interactions |

| 472 | ** If he starts driving the Batmobile, Emmet will declare that he is now "dark and brooding". During ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie'', Emmet tried to say he could be dark and brooding like Batman when they met, only to be distracted by a rainbow. |
| 473 | ** Doc Brown will recognize Homer if the two are together, a reference to Doc Brown's cameo in the pre-show queue video for ''Ride/TheSimpsonsRide''[[note]]Which replaced ''Ride/BackToTheFutureTheRide''[[/note]] at Ride/UniversalStudios. |

| 480 | ** If Superman is with the Doctor, he'll [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial nervously]] dismiss the idea of being able to time travel, most likely reference to the infamous ending scene from ''Film/SupermanTheMovie'' in which he somehow turned back time by flying around the world fast enough to spin the Earth backwards. |
| 481 | *** Either that or the fact that Silver Age Superman ''could'' time-travel, though he couldn't interact with anything while in the past. |
| 482 | ** Aquaman will use a paraphrased line from Gollum's fishing song if the two are together. |

| 500 | ** If E.T. jumps in the Sonic Speedster, he (very slowly) says: "[[Anime/SonicX Got to go fast]]." |
| 501 | ** K.I.T.T. will mention to Sonic that Shadow wanted to buy him once, either a reference to his [[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/sonic/images/9/94/ShadowTrans.jpg vaguely KITT-like vehicle]] in ''Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed'' or the vehicle mechanic from Shadow's story in ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006''. |

| 540 | * When solving a puzzle, Gandalf may mention the [[http://lotr.wikia.com/wiki/Blue_Wizards Blue Wizards]], or refer to himself as an [[http://lotr.wikia.com/wiki/Wizards Istari]]. |
| 541 | * Legolas has the ability to rail grind, referencing when he slid down the Oliphant's trunk in ''Film/TheLordOfTheRingsTheReturnOfTheKing''. |
| 542 | * The Red Brick for the Simpsons Adventure World is named "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS3E19DogOfDeath All Hail King Homer]]", and it turns the player characters to gold much like Homer in the scene it's named after. |
| 543 | * The Twelfth Doctor may, when faced with a puzzle situation, shout "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS34E5TimeHeist Everybody shut up! I need to think! Shut up, Shut up! Shuttity up, up, up!]]" Similarly, he reaffirms his statement from that episode that "The eyebrows say I'm in charge here" when faced with something that directly involves one of his abilities. |
| 544 | * Not only are all incarnations of the Doctor up to the Twelfth Doctor playable from his minifig, but every time the Doctor dies, he will "regenerate" into the next incarnation of the Doctor. If the player has chosen to play as the Second Doctor and dies, he will respawn as the Third Doctor, then the Fourth Doctor, and so on. |
| 545 | * In a nod to their original weakness, moving the playable Cyberman into a gold item will cause it to take damage. |
| 546 | * During a loading screen, Gamer Kid may ask where the flight rings are, which references the VideoGame/LegoAdaptationGame practice of spawning rings of studs to collect when the player is put into free-fall. Naturally, this practice also happens in-game, but only in story levels and Adventure Worlds, not the loading screen. |
| 547 | * Parseltongue gates use the glowing interaction dot from the ''VideoGame/LegoHarryPotter'' games, rather than the white circle used everywhere else. |
| 548 | * One of Harry's idle animations has him [[Literature/HarryPotterAndThePrisonerOfAzkaban take out the Marauder's Map and read it, only to get distracted by Scabbers.]] |
| 549 | ** Another idle animation has him try to catch a Golden Snitch, only to [[Film/HarryPotterAndTheSorcerersStone accidentally swallow it.]] |
| 550 | * Ethan Hunt sneaks past security cameras by [[Film/MissionImpossibleGhostProtocol hiding behind a projector screen]]. |
| 551 | * Marceline sometimes leaves by reciting the incantation used to open a portal to the Nightosphere. |
| 552 | * A good number of Sonic's fighting moves (particularly his ThreePointLanding move) are taken from his appearances in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros''. The name on his Level Pack box is taken from one of his victory animations ''Brawl'': "Sonic's the name, speed's my game!" |
| 553 | * When being placed on the Toy Pad, Sonic may exclaim, "[[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Oh yeah! This is happening!]] ...that sounded better in my head." |
| 554 | ** He may also exclaim "[[Anime/SonicX Gotta go fast!]]" |
| 555 | ** When removed from the toy pad, he may exclaim "I'm Outta Here!", the line he says during the NonstandardGameOver of ''VideoGame/SonicCD'' |
| 556 | * When faced with a puzzle he can't solve, Sonic will say, "[[VideoGame/SonicHeroes Shoot. Not my day.]]" |
| 557 | ** If he can solve it, however, he'll say, "[[VideoGame/SonicRiders All right! Bring it on!]]" |
| 558 | ** He may also say "This won't be like [[VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles the bouncing barrel in Carnival Night Zone, right?]]" if faces with a puzzle he can't solve. |
| 559 | ** After solving a puzzle, Sonic may exclaim "[[VideoGame/SonicUnleashed That's gotta]] [[VideoGame/SonicColors be an "S" Rank]] [[VideoGame/SonicGenerations for sure!]]" |
| 560 | * If Sonic is left idle, he will become impatient and start tapping his foot, like in the classic games. Continued idling will have him recline on the ground, ala ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2''. Even more idling will have him fall asleep and dream of himself running, with his sprite from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1'' appearing in the dream bubble. |
| 561 | * When travelling through a portal into another dimension, Sonic may quip: "Where am I? A [[BonusStage Special Stage]]? Where are the Rings? ''There's usually Rings!!!''" |
| 562 | * In his adventure world, Sonic may quip: "Man, [[VideoGame/SonicR I can really feel the sunshine. It's brightening up my day!]]" |
| 563 | * Sonic wears a lifejacket when entering water, [[VideoGame/MarioAndSonicAtTheOlympicGames much like how he did in water-related events at the olympics.]] |
| 564 | * The life gauges for each franchise are different, and some relate to the franchise in a special way. |
| 565 | ** Sonic's life gauge is represented with 1-up monitors from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1''. |
| 566 | ** Chell's life gauge uses Weighted Companion Cubes from ''Portal''. |
| 567 | ** [[Series/DoctorWho The Doctor's]] life gauge is represented by two overlapping hearts in place of each other character's single heart, referencing how Time Lords have two hearts. |
| 568 | ** The life gauges for ''DC Comics'', ''Lord of the Rings'', and ''LEGO Movie'' characters use the same designs as their corresponding LEGO Adaptation Game. |
| 569 | * LEGO Movie Batman's Detective Mode ability works almost exactly like the one seen in the ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries''. |
| 570 | * Sometimes LEGO Movie Batman's Merch-Gun shoots apparel with the logo of the animated series ''WesternAnimation/TheBatman''. |
| 571 | * Andy's boom box plays an instrumental sounding similar to "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough", which also accompanies some parts of the ''Goonies'' level and Adventure World. |
| 572 | * When Betelgeuse finds a Gold Brick, he exclaims, "We've come for your Gold Bricks, Chuck!", a variation on his demand to Charles Deetz for Lydia. |
| 573 | * Ethan can breathe underwater; a reference to the underwater scene from ''[[Film/MissionImpossibleRogueNation Rogue Nation]]'', where he had to hold his breath for six minutes. |
| 574 | * Ethan has little suction cups that he uses to [[Film/MissionImpossibleGhostProtocol climb up special blue walls]]. His right suction cup also tends to lose grip occasionally. |
| 575 | * If left idle, LSP will either [[Recap/AdventureTimeS4E2FiveShortGraybles sing "These Lumps"]], or [[Recap/AdventureTimeS4E12Gotcha don a plastic bag dress and some cherry lipstick]]. |
| 576 | * One of Green Arrow's idle lines is about needing to update the picture on his business cards, since he's still wearing "that old Robin Hood style hat". |
