30 movies that need the Lego treatment so bad it’s wrong
25. Deadpool
Premise of the movie: This R-rated movie was the most controversial creation of 2016. Some parents expected a fun superhero movie for their kids, only to get an anti-hero movie with sex and foul language.
The movie told the story of Wade Wilson, a former Special Forces operative and now a mercenary. After finding the love of his life, he learns that he has cancer. Rather than die, he goes through experimental treatment that leaves him disfigured but with some serious super powers. His quest is one of revenge and for treatment, but it takes him down a dark, anti-hero path.
Why it needs the Lego treatment: Deadpool is the only superhero that hasn’t shown up in the Lego universe yet. All the others have been included, but Deadpool is continually overlooked. He’s one of the best, never really fighting for what’s right but for what he wants. There’s a selfish element that touches on some of the actions that most humans would do if found with super powers.
On top of that, Deadpool is a comedic genius. He speaks his mind and doesn’t care who he offends. Adults loved the chance to see a superhero movie made just for them. They’d jump at the chance of a Lego movie created purely for their entertainment.
