30 movies that need the Lego treatment so bad it’s wrong

18. The Matrix

Premise of the movie: The Matrix, created in 1999, still has some convinced to this very day that we are all living in an alternate reality. This is a franchise, but it’s the first movie that is by far the best and most successful.

The Matrix follows the story of computer hacker Neo, who learns that the world he lives in isn’t real. In the real world, everyone is connected to machines. Our world is an alternate and computer generated reality to make us enjoy some of life. Learning about the real world is just the first stage for Neo, as he learns he is The One to lead the war between the resistance and the machines.

Why it needs the Lego treatment: Lego would offer a different version of the two worlds within The Matrix. The Lego world is the one created by the humans, who control everything that the Lego people say and do. It would take on a similar aspect to The Lego Movie, which turned out to be a young boy’s imagination.

It’s very uncommon to see animation and live action together. Lego opens the door in a way that is easy to understand and follow. The movie would take the computer and science out of The Matrix and add in imagination and creativity.
