History Funny / TheLegoMovie

** Taken UpToEleven in one scene where they specifically give Bad Cop a chair to kick around for a minute before punting it and dropping it on top of another officer.

* The interaction between Superman and Green Lantern, with the latter constantly fanboying over his hero and the former being annoyed to no end. [[UpToEleven Their universe takes advantage of this]], producing one of the funniest lines in the film's penultimate climax:

[[AC:...and [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters Everyone]] [[CastOfSnowflakes Else]]]]

'''Emmet:''' ''(Sadly)'' It's a double-decker couch. Which I now realize... is not super helpful. But, you know, it does have cup holders, and the seats flip up with the coolers underneath.\\

** Possibly a [[GeniusBonus]] here; there is a well known children's book called "Emmett's Pig."

'''Robot''': Yes.\\q

'''[[DeadpanSnarker Wyldstyle]]''': [[IdiotHero I don't think he's ever had an original thought... in his life]].\\
'''Emmet''': ''[chuckles]'' That's not true! One time, I wanted to have a bunch of my friends over to watch TV... ''[as a TV is formed out of thin air]'' [[LampshadeHanging ...not unlike this TV that just showed up magically]], and not everyone can fit on my one couch. ''[forms a couch]'' And so I've thought to myself, "Well, what if there was such a thing as a bunk bed, ''but as a couch''?" ''[adds a couch to the top]'' Introducing [[AwesomeButImpractical the double-decker couch]]: [[{{Adorkable}} so everyone can watch TV together and be buddies]]!\\
'''Wyldstyle''': ''[{{Beat}}]'' That is literally the dumbest thing I've ever heard.\\

** Take a look at Emmet's bookcase during that scene. ''All the books are instructions''.

* When Emmet comes across the Piece of Resistance, he suddenly states aloud his instinct to touch it as he nears it. Naturally, the movie plays up the dumbness of the situation by having the Piece softly whisper, ''touch the piece, touch the piece.''

** Careful examination of when Emmet causes ''the entire saloon'' to stop what they're doing and stare, a cowboy swinging on a chandelier ''stops mid-air.''
** When Wyldstyle and Vitruvius are talking in the bar, watch Emmet in the background. He takes a drink from a bottle and makes a face that just screams "Yuck!".
* When Emmet falls through the mysterious portal to oblivion, he ''keeps falling,'' basically to the point of an implied offscreen OverlyLongGag while the rest of the Master Builders are saving the world.

* Emmet raving about how great President Business's rule is, mentioning all the awesome things his company has made-[[BreadEggsMilkSquick music, dairy products, coffee, TV shows, surveillance systems, history books, voting machines]]...
-->'''Emmet:''' [[ExplainExplainOhCrap Wait a minute]].

* In The Old West, Wyldstyle is explaining the situation of Lord Business and the Master Builders....except that Emmet's paying [[DistractedByTheSexy too much attention]] to ''her''.

'''Emmet:''' ''(Sadly)'' It's a double-decker couch. Which I now realize...is not super helpful. But, you know, it does have cup holders, and the seats flip up with the coolers underneath.\\

** And when Emmet manages to get off the table and onto the floor, he lets out [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction a very quiet "Ow."]]

''SmashCut to Emmet, still falling in the abyss'' \\

-->'''Vitruvius''': "Most Master Builders spend years clearing their minds enough to catch even a glimpse of The Man Upstairs, and yet [[TooDumbToFool your mind is so prodigiously empty]] that there was nothing to clear out to begin with!"

-->'''[[FauxAffablyEvil President Business]]''': "Let's all remember to follow the instructions (''quietly into the microphone'') ''[[BlackComedy oryou'llbeputtosleep]]''. And don't forget about Taco Tuesday this week!"

-->'''Bad Cop (nervously):''' I know you do, sir. Now please, please don't.

* During the scene where we first see his office tower, President Business has his robots surrounding him giving them papers to sign. He ends up getting distracted by one of them and [[FunnyBackgroundEvent accidentally draws on a robot's face.]]

'''Emmet:''' W-Wild.... st..\\

'''Emmet:''' I-is that your real name?! So.... on your birth certificate, it says Wyldstyle?\\

* The frustrated noise Wyldstyle (and her horse) make when Emmet reveals he [[DistractedByTheSexy wasn't listening.]]

--->'''Vitruvius''': ...and be the greatest, most interesting, most important person of all times. [[PropheciesRhymeAllTheTime All this is true... because it rhymes]].

---> '''Vitruvius:''' (''talking super fast'') ''Alright you're gonna have to write all that down because I'm not gonna remember any of it, but herewego!''

** "Emmet, you didn't let me finish earlier...because I died."

** When Emmet attaches his head to the wheel and saves them, Vitruvius is going to hug Emmet...but he hugs a pig instead. It's adorable though.
** When giving roles for his plan to infiltrate Lord Business' tower, Emmet puts Vitruvius on ''look out.'' Cut to Vitruvius 'looking' through a pair of binoculars and announcing that there's no enemies...at a wall.

--> '''Vitruvius''': (attaching [[CowTools a fish to a magic wand]]) Your training begins now.\\
'''Robo-cowboys''': (banging on the door) Hey, piano-man! Open up!\\
'''Vitruvius''': [[OhCrap Your training begins]] ''[[VerbalBackspace later!]]''

-->'''Batman''': I only work in black! ''*{{Beat}}*'' And sometimes very, very dark gray!

-->'''ComicBook/{{Batman}}''': "[[{{Pun}} We'll wing it]]."\\

'''Batman''': "[[DontExplainTheJoke It's a bat-pun]]."

'''Guard:''' I see. Is that last name "Butt," first name "Your," or-\\

'''Guard''': Oh my gosh! ''(collapses in pieces)'',\\

'''Batman''': Dang it.\\

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wdzFZrmba4 Batman's reaction to Cloud Cuckoo Land]]

'''Batman:''' What do you think? A spaceship is just going to appear out of the blue-'' [Cue Franchise/StarWars theme as the Millennium Falcon appears]''-[[BrickJoke ARE YOU KIDDING ME, THE SAME BIT!?]]

* Batman manages to land on a police cruiser in mid-air, and rebuilds it into a ''baby carriage'' so it ''falls down!''

'''Robot''': Yes.\\

'''Wyldstyle''': [[HypocriticalHumor You just said the word "no", like, a thousand times]].\\
'''Uni-Kitty''': And [[HypocrisyNod there's also no consistency]]!

'''Uni-Kitty''': ''(smiles sheepishly)'' Sorry.

-->'''Metalbeard''': Rule 1 of the sea: Never place yer rear end on a pirate's face!

-->'''Benny''': Cool, Talking Computer! Please disable the shield system!\\
'''Computer''': Of course.......There are no movies in your area with that title.\\
'''Benny''': ''[=UGGggghhhh!=]''

'''Computer''': Disabling shield.\\
'''Benny''': WHAT?!

-->'''UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln''': "[[HistoricalInJoke A house divided against itself]] [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere would be better than this!]]" *flies away on a jet-powered version of his seat*\\
'''Emmet''': "Hey, Abraham Lincoln, you bring your space chair right back!"

-->'''Emmet:''' (''reading from his instructions'') Drink overpriced coffee!\\

'''Emmet:''' (''{{Beat}}'') Awesome!
** The fact that the coffee place is literally called [[ShapedLikeItself "The Coffee Chain".]]

-->'''Superman''': (After being placed in the [[HiveMind Think Tank]]) At least it can't get any worse....\\
'''Green Lantern''': Hello neighbour! Looks like we're room mates! How crazy is that?\\
'''Superman''': Does anyone have any Kryptonite that they could give me?

'''Green Lantern:''' (falls onto the gum) Oh, my gosh! My arms are stuck! My legs are stuck as well!\\

* Wyldstyle hijacks the camera that was filming "Where Are My Pants?" to tell all the Lego worlds what Emmet's done through huge, mounted monitors...we cut to Middle Zealand, and find that they're only listening to a messenger on horseback reading what she's saying out of a scroll! ''In falsetto!''

--->'''Wyldstyle''': "Found your pants, series is over!" ''(throws pants at the main character)''

* The medieval fantasy world is called ''[[Film/TheLordOfTheRings "Middle]] [[UsefulNotes/NewZealand Zealand".]]''. Even New Zealanders loved this joke considering how much the local tourism board loves to promote the connection to the films despite it being a British property.
* Superman trying to hit on the Statue of Liberty. Truth, Justice and the American Way!
* In a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, when Emmet, Wyldstyle, and Vitruvius get knocked off of their wagon and land on the train, the pig that was riding with them misses the train completely and ''[[RefugeInAudacity explodes into sausage links.]]''

"It...kinda is." \\

-->'''The Man Upstairs:''' (incredulous) You ''accidentally'', '''''expertly''''', '''''CAREFULLY''''' took the entire top off of that tower?

** The Poleesh Remover of Na'iil. It's just nail polish remover. And an old Band-Aid (aka the Cloak of Ban Da'id), which Lord Business hears is very painful to take off. The latter example even has a FunnyBackgroundEvent as two henchmen have significant trouble handling it after Lord Business tosses it away.

* Any of the on-screen cards with text on them, made with, you guessed it, Lego, such as "8 1/2 Years Later" or "5 hours later", etc.

----> '''Vitruvius:''' "[[FiveFiveFive 555]]-3492... Mmmm... just listen to those rich molasses."

--->'''Batman:''' So they [the directors] got Will Arnett to voice me. Guess that means [[Film/BatmanAndRobin Clooney]] [[OldShame passed.]]

** Emmet lands and continues screaming. ... and continues screaming. ...... and gets up, weirds Wyldstyle out, and proceeds to chase her screaming!

--->'''Batman:''' What kind of lame-o name is [Lucy]? That's like that name of a bank teller, or a preschool teacher. [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece Boy, did I just date myself with "bank teller"]]. ''[stagehand comes on screen and laughs]'' I'm not that old.

*** The scene ends with the decor wall toppling over the characters on the set and [[ByWallThatIsHoley missing them all thanks to the windows' placement]] (except [[CreatorCameo Phil Lord]]). [[http://img.ifcdn.com/images/e87cd5358ee1e7df618d7062c68da372e3c6fcf2363ad3c7bbef663c3b7c5ca5_1.webm Unikitty's face is priceless]].
** Batman and Emmet are taking a break between takes on the pirate ship set, and Batman says he'd like someone to invent arm-rests. ... like, not the chair, JUST the arm-rests! That he can take to a concert....

* The characters "auditioning" for the movie, which can be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4RT2tBtetc&feature=youtu.be here.]]

'''Batman''': Ah, you don't want me in your movie. I'm not into it and uh-\\
'''Casting Director''': You know maybe we should just get Superman do it. ''(Superman comes into frame from left gleefully smiling as someone off-screen whispers "Yeah, yeah!")''\\
'''Batman''': ''(pulls out a batarang)'' I'm Batman.

* {{Beat}}*\\

** Bonus points for this line from Batman: "Those guys were so lame. All they did was play "Space Checkers". Plus it turns out that hairy one's a ''dudes''. The metal one too. All dudes."

** When the above line is said, there is a board full of other amusing rules, such as "Never release the Kraken" and "Never wear pants on a Tuesday"!

** Bonus points for this line from Batman: "They're all ''dudes''. Even the hairy one and the metal one."

* During the meeting of the Master Builders, Vitruvius can't tell the difference between Gandalf and Dumbledore, much to both wizards' chagrin.

--->'''Vitruvius:''' Thanks Dubbledore *points at Gandalf* and Gandalf *gestures at Dumbledore.*\\

'''Dumbledore:''' It's ''pronounced'' "DUM-Ble-Dore."

'''Batman:''' Pow! Wham! Ka-zap!\\

[[AC:{{Franchise/Batman}}]]

* Emmet falls down into the Old West and continues screaming ''for ten seconds straight'' after hitting the ground. He stops when he gets up though.

* When Wildstyle and Emmet arrive in the Old West, she throws a CACTUS at him.

** When she and Emmet arrive in the Old West, she throws a ‘’cactus’’ at him for ruining the prophecy.
