threat and horror
Anxieties over perceived loss of creativity are illustrated by a very mild sequence in which a Lego minifigure is swept into a Lego whirlpool.
language
Bad language includes ‘shit’, ‘butt’, ‘booty’, ‘damn’, ‘God’ and ‘hell’. Other terms are obscured and unidentifiable.
sex
Mild sex references and innuendo occur in song lyrics, such as use of the term ‘pimp’ and references to ‘getting lucky’ and ‘honeys shaking rumps’.
discrimination
Brief discussion of the Black Lives Matter movement is illustrated by a sequence in which protesters chant ‘Hands up, don’t shoot’ in reference to racist police violence. In another scene a person makes a disparaging reference to ‘girl songs’.
drugs
During a scene depicting a meeting with Snoop Dogg, the room is visibly smoky, and Lego characters begin to act in a manner that may suggest intoxication; however, there is no sight or mention of marijuana. Song lyrics contain a reference to ‘bad trips’.
theme
There are brief references to bereavement. In another scene, Williams speaks briefly about struggling to fit in and feeling anxious and overwhelmed by school during his childhood. The tone is not upsetting, however.
