50 free The Lego Movie trivia questions with answers. Everything is awesome, and everything is in here. This quiz covers The Lego Movie (2014) and the three films that followed it: The Lego Batman Movie, The Lego Ninjago Movie and The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part. Fifty questions run through Emmet, Wyldstyle, Vitruvius, Lord Business and the Kragle, the Man Upstairs twist, the voice cast, the Australian studio that animated it all, the song that got an Oscar nomination and the box-office numbers that ended Warner Bros.' run with the brick. The easy questions ask what the Kragle really is and who voices Batman; the hard ones want the film's working title, the 1989 short film the Magic Portal tube pays tribute to, the name of the Phantom Zone's warden and which director was replaced twice on the sequel. It suits kids who know every line, parents who caught the jokes aimed at them and anyone who still cannot get the song out of their head. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the four films, the franchise and the song, and each question carries the sentence that backs it up.
