#TheLegoMovie on Blu-Ray #giveaway #US
Who is ready to get awesome with The LEGO Movie?!
The first ever full length LEGO adventure is coming to blu-ray on June 17th and I am giving you the chance to win your own copy now!
If you haven’t seen the movie yet it is an original 3D computer animated story that follows Emmet, a rules following, average LEGO minifigure who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. He is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on a quest to stop an evil tyrant – a journey that he is under prepared for.
Chris Pratt stars as the voice of Emmett and Will Ferrell stars as the voice of his primary adversary, President Business who has a hard time balancing world domination with micro-managing his own life. Starring as Emmet’s fellow travellers are Oscar winner Morgan Freeman, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett and Nick Offerman – what a cast right?!
We were able to catch this movie while it was still in the theatres and had a wonderful time! The kids were constantly singing the “everything is awesome” tune the whole time afterwards. I laughed so much in this movie – Batman cracked me up at every corner! I loved how they brought our kids favourite LEGO characters to life.
To help celebrate the launch of the movie, you can now make your own mini LEGO video! Check out the You Tube channel here.
Residents of the US, 18 years of age and older can now enter via the Rafflecopter form below. (Please no P.O. boxes – thanks!). GOOD LUCK!
Disclosure: I am partnering with Warner Bros. Home Entertainment to bring you this giveaway via materials supplied through them. All opinions expressed are my own.
