30 movies that need the Lego treatment so bad it’s wrong
17. American Pie
Premise of the movie: American Pie was the movie that would kick start a six-movie franchise that had almost every teenager laughing out loud during every moment. It was a coming of age tale about a group of teenage boys who wanted to lose their virginity by prom night.
You’d be hard pushed to find someone who hasn’t watched at least the first movie. That first one is still by far the best and shows the tale of true friendship. After all, none of them are going to let each other fail in the pact.
What follows is a guide to ‘how not to do things’ involving failed to chat up lines, an incident with laxatives, and a weirdly odd scene with a warm apple pie.
Why it needs the Lego treatment: A Lego version would need to hold true to the original story and keep the tone of the movie, adding some of with its own Lego-style jokes along the way. Think of a story on how the Lego characters are supposed to lose their virginity without certain parts.
But why this movie in particular? It’s the iconic coming of age movie of the late 90s and early 00s. It’s a teen comedy that no other movie has been able to replicate yet. Any remake would be an embarrassment, except for one that poked fun through the use of Lego.
