This is an interesting story I ran into. Seems like Fox News (the news network) is claiming that the Lego Movie is anti-capitalist, and trying to spread a "liberal agenda" to our kids, telling them that big businesses are bad. This is because the villain is the head of a large corporation. Wether you care about the movie or not, and regardless of your political views, what are you thoughts on this claim? If I got any information wrong feel free to notify me.

Edited by Ninjas are scary: 2/13/2014 2:26:31 AMThere are many series/movies where the main villain/antagonist is the head of some powerful corporation. E.g. Superman. I myself have not seen the movie, but seeing as how they seem to claim that LEGO, a company that has been around for many years, seems to now support anti-capitalism propaganda. Now, the fact that they are self-advertising in the movie is another deal. It IS their movie after all. It is inevitable to see so many LEGO's, LEGO logos, and LEGO pieces in a LEGO movie. Part of why they made the movie must have been for sole advertisement purposes, I'm sure.
