The directors who gave us “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” have been tapped to help bring the Lego movie to big-screen.
Phil Lord and Chris Miller are in final negotiations with Warner Brothers to write and direct a feature film about the popular building blocks toy.
The plot is being kept under wraps, but it will be an adventure in the Lego world mixing live action and animation.
In order to get the job, Lord and Miller prepared a presentation that not only had to pass muster with Warners executives but also with executives from Lego. Lego has been extremely protective of its product and is reportedly very involved in the process.

OK. Hold on…Be right back.
I had to follow the masthead link back to make sure that I wasn’t spoofed and this was actually the website for The Onion.
A LEGO MOVIE?
So…will the sequel be The TINKERTOY Movie??
