11. Gone Girl

Premise of the movie: Based on the novel of the same name, Gone Girl tells the story of Nick and Amy Dunnes. In the public eye, they look like they have the perfect marriage, but that view soon shatters. When Amy goes missing, the police instantly suspect Nick and start unraveling the deceit and mystery behind closed doors.

It’s a tale of secrets and lies, delving deep into the minds of those hurt and betrayed. The movie also makes it clear that evidence isn’t always so cut and dry in a “murder” trial.

Why it needs the Lego treatment: It’s only a new movie, but that is just one notch against it for the Lego treatment. There are so many others.

Could you imagine Nick’s past being explored with questions about his Batman days? For those querying this, Nick is played by Ben Affleck. There could even be Daredevil connects within the movie, especially with the fact that there’s an attorney character.

Then there’s always Neil Patrick Harris’ connection to Batman, with his character Music Meister in Batman: The Brave and Bold. This opens further abilities to combine franchises to deepen the story and offer another connection between the characters other than Amy.
