And an (unfinished) fandom wiki! And memes. Can’t have a fandom without memes.

I guess you could say it’s the same fandom but not really as Ninjago

How does it feel to have created a whole fandom inside a fandom?

Because I just got here and I'm McLovin' it lol

I mean, I'd say we pretty much meet all the criteria

We've got AUs, fan lore, Canon OCs(think Wes Weston from Danny Phantom) art, even a few spinoff fics, and almost 150 members on the discord.

me from a year ago would be loosing their shit if they saw this.

So, one of the best ways to watch/rewatch the movie is frame-by-frame (or at least, slow-mo). The movie is actually super pretty, especially the set design. And, in classic lego movie style, all smear frames usually use lego pieces, which makes some very fluid and smooth quick-action.

But when you slow it down, coupled with the fact The LEGO Ninjago Movie is a little... loose with rules-

You get the most hilarious freeze frames and expressions. Which I naturally screenshot-ed to share with all of you today, first because I was bored and it sounded fun, then because I was laughing my head off.

So, below are frames from specifically that promo video (the quality is a little fuzzy which honestly just makes it even funnier)- and one day I’ll start posting some of the screenshots I found from the movie itself, once I actually organize that folder because I keep finding new ones.

Enjoy.

Starting with the green bean himself-

a very >:( boy

Next up, his dad, who just loves to stretch a lego leg much further than it’s supposed to.

Good sir please put your helmet back on-

Sir your leg-

Following Sir-I-Don’t-Care-About-Physics, we’ve got-

Behold. The majestic Water Ninja.

And don’t forget her brother!

‘Why’d my sword melt’

I think this is the angriest we see him in the whole movie, and it’s not even in the movie

Right after, we got m!Zane doing his best! :D 

But that one’s kinda tame, right? WELL- m!Cole’s got you covered, because his little scene includes the distortion effect from the shockwave his hammer makes

Sir, that’s not a hammer, that’s a pickaxe-

Oh dear mother of mayhem what happened-

And then we’re back to spinning-

Side note, the spinning smear frames are actually quite pretty and the effect they make when on normal speed is super cool

And then we have m!Jay, who just-

YEET. But at least he stuck the landing- oh. Oh dear. Buddy, are you alright-

Heyyy bud, I can’t tell what’s your hand and what’s your leg. You’re just a pile of googly gob. But at least you don’t break physics when you spin- no, wait, he does.

Sir, you are a lego, I’m not sure you’re supposed to bend that way.

Aw fiddlesticks, he can’t hear us, he’s having too much fun

Aaaaaand onto Koko! Look at how amazing she looks-

Well, mostly amazing. Add that one to the expressions chart!

But hey, we’re done! Surely there’s not more freeze-frame worthy moments-

Wait, Master Wu, what are you- NO! PUT THAT LEG BACK THE WAY IT’S SUPPOSED TO OR SO HELP ME-

*Sigh* Can’t catch a break, huh. At least his nephew is-

...well, not the worst expression I’ve seen. He’s at least not breaking physics, so he’s-

m!Lloyd Montgomery Smith Garmadon, you are a lego, your leg is not supposed to touch your back, put it back-

m!KAI-

STOP ADDING EXTRA LEG-

FOR THE LOVE OF- okay, okay, we’re calm, we’re almost done, nobody else is gonna do anything crazy, it’s gonna be fi-

Thin ice, m!Nya, thin ice. Bent too far forward over your front leg, but you landed in a sick split, I gotta give you style points. 

Okay. NOW they’re posing for the title card, so nobody’s gonna do anything crazy-

Garmadon, what are you-

NO-

SIR, YOUR LEG- STOP IT WITH THE LEG- GARMALEG ALERT, SOMEBODY STOP THIS MAN

LOOK WHAT HE DID, HE SCARED THE HAIR/HEAD RIGHT OFF OF m!COLE!

Seriously, these legos...

But now we’re done for real (until I eventually make a movie screenshot post)

I hope you enjoyed these priceless screenshot freeze-frames as much as I did.

Lego Ninjago Movie New, Secret Promo Video. 

Boi, if only the Movie would have been this cool.

If this reaches 1500 notes I will contribute to the cause by attempting to (probably poorly) draw him in the Onceler jacket 

I've effectively nerfed myself from ever becoming popular on tumblr because my url is an obscure lego character, and thank god for that

“The LEGO Movie is a cosmic horror” was not what I was expecting to see on my dash this morning but it had me cackling

was explaining to my mom on the phone the concept of a cosmic horror and she hit me with the one hit k.o. of "oh you mean like horton hears a who?"

- The two museum curators are actual timeless beings (again, not that far off, at least on the ‘time’ thing)

- He keeps seeing the same kid at school multiple times- the same sunglasses, a different clothing style but always in purple/pink- and swears the whole ‘clone theory’ is true but surprise, nobody believes him

- The nice flower shop owner is/was a pirate in a past life

- He does not trust Lloyd’s cousin’s boss. She’s good, but there is something about her that just gives him the heeby-jeebies

- He saw a grey tabby at a pet store once and just stared for 20 minutes until Nya and Lloyd (wearing a hoodie to disguise himself so he wouldn’t get kicked out) dragged him away

- He’s convinced the noodle chain in the city is the cover up for a gang or something

- Hates mason jars with a passion. Doesn’t know why, but has managed to argue about it for an hour. Nobody won that debate

- Hates tar even more than glass jars. Nobody knows why. Neither does he. But he does not trust it.

- Thinks Dr. J has an apprentice that stole White’s blueprint designs once. Dr. J said he’s never had an apprentice before, but he’s lying, he knows it

- Someone introduced him to Gravity Falls and other code-related shows. It did not end well for anyone but Red

- He now sometimes writes in code, and it’s even harder to decipher his weird half-awake notes right after visions

I am wondering... After eating the forbidden pocky sticks... What kind of conspiracies about things in general had Red come up with that are actually be true but nobody believed him until he somehow managed to prove it?

not in order, but some notable ones:

- Multiverse theory

- some higher power controlling them(this one actually has an angsty AU)

- Mothman and other such cryptids

- Garmadon is actually a demon from another universe(partially true)

- Wu is almost a god

and bold of you to assume he was able to prove any of them
