The LEGO brand will go along with potential Nintendo projects as known brands inside a studio which is on a current animation-specific hot streak. Universal has scored huge with the Illumination brand as the French studio supplanted DreamWorks Animation as the proverbial “second-only-to-Disney DIS” animation giant. Save for a periodic Space Jam ($250 million in 1996 on an $80 million budget) or LEGO Movie, WB’s feature animation department is better known for Quest for Camelot-ish misses. If I may be optimistic for a moment, I might argue that LEGO at Universal will be under less pressure to keep a studio’s entire animation branch afloat, as was frankly the case with Warner Bros.Īs much success as Warner Media has had with original and established IP before it was cool ( Batman, The Matrix, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc.), they’ve continuously struggled with theatrical animation.

The LEGO Movie and The LEGO Batman Movie sold themselves as a cultural event for adults and kids. When your original toons make more than the IP-specific toons, that’s a problem with the IP. Not only were these massive comedowns from their predecessors, they were less than Warner Bros.’ Storks ($183 million in 2016) and Smallfoot ($214 million in 2018). But LEGO Ninjago Movie earned just $123 million on a $70 million budget in late 2017, while The LEGO Movie 2 earned $191 million on a $99 million budget.
