LEGO movie storyline announced

Believe it or not, a LEGO movie is in the works and its coming from the directoral minds of Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs and 21 Jump Street). The untitled movie has already started pre-production and is said to be "really weird in a great way. It's crazy." A story based on the LEGO toys might be hard to imagine but lets see what Lord and Miller had to say.

"It is the story of basically a young man who doesn't have a creative bone in his body and has to always build things from the instructions. He's an 'instructions worker.' In the Lego city, they build buildings, and it turns out in this universe it's illegal to build apart from the instructions," Lord said. "So what he finds out is that he's actually descendant from these like super creative Jedi-type people who are called 'Master Builders' and he has been charged with saving the universe from being frozen together by an evil bad guy, so over the course of the movie he has to unlearn all of that lame-o, uncreative stuff and learn how to build without all of the instructions in order to save the universe."

From this description it definitely has what it takes to be off the wall crazy. We'll have to wait and see whether or not this will be crazy is a great way. What do you think? Genius idea or reaching for ideas and pulling back nothing?
