>>9221830The problem is that there's two types of settings in LEGO, I call them 'brick-built' and 'realistic'.
Realistic is where only the characters appear as minifigures, but objects like vehicles and buildings are normal. Ninjago, Chima, Nexo Knights, even City Adventures.
Brick-built is where (almost) everything is LEGO, and things like 'master builders' exist. Characters can swap/lose hairpieces, things break apart into LEGO bricks and in general it's all a lot more lighthearted and slapstick. Here's where the Ninjago Movie completely differs: It's related to The LEGO Movie more than the series. In the end it's a story of a boy experiencing an adventure through the use of LEGO minifigures, which the autistic Ninjago fanbase can't grasp or handle. Other themes that are brick-built are licensed series like Jurassic World, Star Wars and Marvel.
