Storyclock Research Log

The LEGO Movie

By Seth Worley

The LEGO Movie

For today's Storyclock Research Log, we analyzed THE LEGO MOVIE, written by Phil Lord and Chris Miller! As usual, we watched the movie and used the Storyclock Notebook to visualize the film's structure in the form of a clock.

 

 

Remember, this isn't proof of some kind of master plan on the writers' parts! We provide these Storyclock Research Logs as inspiration to help you get through whatever draft is consuming your life and soul at the moment! In the words of Adam Savage, ALL 👏 CREATION 👏 IS 👏 ITERATION. Keep your chin up and remember the words of Vitruvius (who, yes, we called Gandalf in the Storyclock above) (and yes, we misspelled it):

The only thing anyone needs to be special is to believe that you can be. I know that sounds like a cat poster, but it's true.

As verified purveyors of cat posters, we approve of this message.
