  Hmm, as far as I know Universal was supposed to do something similar to the LEGO
Movie, not make a documentary on a guy.

How do you know that, though? Do you work for Universal Studios?

That would actually be pretty cool if you do. I know someone who does, but I
haven't spoken with them about this movie.

  The effect of a documentary showing off a guys greatness is it will promote the
him not LEGO.

It will promote LEGO, though, by sheer virtue of Pharrell's popularity.
I can't say I'm personally a fan—just not big into music in general—but
he's got quite a following. Perhaps the LEGO Group will even release a set
in his honor.

Or it could be a total flop and a waste of money, but we won't know until
after it's been released. I'm hoping it does well; the guy deserves better.

I can understand if you feel that LEGO has become overly commodified, but those
concerns are better addressed directly to the LEGO Group and Universal Studios
rather than in a forum full of music lovers.
