Battle of Bricksburg

The **Battle of Bricksburg** (also known as **Taco Tuesday** and **Freedom Friday**) was a huge rebellion battle from the Warner Bros. movie, *The Lego Movie*. It deals with the people of Bricksburg and the Lego Universe fighting against Lord Business who is using the Kragle to make everything perfect.

## History

### Background

It all started when the people of the Lego Universe were united together and built things freely the way they wanted to who were known as Master Builders. However, the ruler of the Lego Universe, President Business was angered and confused by all of it. Believing that they were all destroying and ruining all the perfect things he made. So President Business became Lord Business and created boundaries between the different worlds in the Lego Universe to make it perfect. But in order to make sure everything stayed perfect forever he decided to use a dangerous weapon known as the Kragle, which was actually just a bottle of glue. After he and his robots stole the Kragle from it's guardian, Vitruvius and blinded him with a laser pointer, Vitruvius told of a prophecy that one day a special person would find the Piece of Resistance needed to stop the Kragle, which was actually just the cap from the glue bottle. Lord Business then formed a robot army and hired Bad Cop to hunt down and find all the remaining Master Builders and placed them in the Think Tank which is a prison room at his office headquarters, the Office Tower. But others managed to escape and went into hiding through tunnels in the boundaries. After that, Lord Business had the rest of the people follow special instructions he made from the ideas of the captured Master Builders in order to get the people to follow his way of perfection. Then planned to use the Kragle by hooking it up to a machine called the T.A.K.O.S. and use it on the entire Lego Universe to enforce his views of perfection on a day known as Taco Tuesday.

### The Battle

8 1/2 years later, a regular construction worker named Emmet Brickowski who followed every single rule and instruction given to him accidently finds the Piece of Resistance after following a Master Builder named Wildstyle who was Vitruvius' old student and was searching for it in some caves and it became stuck to his back after he touched it, thus becoming the "Special". Emmet then has strange visions and is knocked out, when he wakes up he is captured by Bad Cop who questions him about the Piece of Resistance, the prophecy, and the other Master Builders who were in hiding. But since Emmet wasn't a Master Builder he didn't know what Bad Cop was talking about. Then when Bad Cop and the robots try to melt the Piece of Resistance off of Emmet with a laser pointer, Wildstyle shows up and saves Emmet from them. Then she builds a bike and they both race away from the Bad Cop and the robots to the wall for the secret tunnel but not before Wildstyle finds out what kind of person Emmet is. When they arrive at the Old West, Wildstyle gets upset with Emmet for not being a Master Builder. They then put on disguises and go into a western town where Wildstyle explains to Emmet everything about Lord Business, the Master Builders, the Kragle, and the Piece of Resistance then she realizes Lord Business' plan on Taco Tuesday. Emmet and Wildstyle then find Vitruvius at a Salon where Wild style shows Emmet to Vitruvius who tries to teach Emmet how to be a Master Builder but he can't come up with good ideas but after learning that Emmet has seen the Man Upstairs through his vision they decide to meet up with the other Master Builders at Cloud Cuckoo Land. However, Bad Cop the and robots find them and chase after them to get Emmet but Emmet, Wildstyle, and Vitruvius escape by riding a wagon pulled by pigs. During the chase, the wagon's wheel breaks off so Emmet puts the wheel on his head and helps maneuver the wagon which allows them to escape the robots. But then they end of on a train and are chased by Bad Cop who places a tracker on Emmet and destroys the train's bridge with his flying car which causes Emmet, Wildstyle, and Vitruvius to fall into the canyon but they are saved by Wildstyle's boyfriend, Batman who defeats Bad Cop uses the Batwing to go through the sun, Middle Zealand, and then up a rainbow to Cloud Cuckoo Land. There they meet Princess Unikitty who brings them to the other Master Builders at the dog. But when Emmet is presented to the other Master Builders he gives a speech on how they can stop Lord Business by storming the Office Tower. But a robot pirate named Metal Beard arrives and reveals all the dangers of the Office Tower then questions Emmet how they could get it. Which makes Emmet reveal to that he's not a Master Builder which makes all the other Master Builders very displeased which makes them all leave. Suddenly, Cloud Cuckoo Land is attacked by Bad Cop and the robots because of the tracking device on Emmet. They all capture most of the Master Builders then Batman gets rid of the tracking device on Emmet then Emmet, Wildstyle, Vitruvius, Batman, Unikitty, and a astronaut named Benny build a submarine to escape the robots and Clous Cuckoo Land and into the ocean. But Bad Cop and the robots capture the other Masters and destroy Cloud Cuckoo Land then Emmet and his friends' submarine gets destroyed. Bad Cop and the robots believe that Emmet is gone and search the ocean to make sure, when they can't find him they report to Lord Business about it who is places the other Master Builders in the Think Tank. However, Emmet and his friends survive the submarine's destruction by hiding in Emmet's Double Decker Couch that he made onboard the submarine which Lord Business' robots completely overlooked. Then Metal Beard arrives and bring them all aboard his ship and claims that Emmet's ideas might help stop Lord Business.

So Emmet comes up with a plan to sneak into the Office Tower and put the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle. To do that they will make a normal spaceship that the robots use to get into the Office Tower, use Lord Business' real world relics to make disguises, have Benny and Metal Beard to disable the Kragle's shield using the man computer, have Vitruvius provide lookout, have Batman and Unikitty distract Lord Business and the robots in the board room, so Emmet and Wildstyle and place the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle. However, Vitruvius warns them that when the Piece of Resistance is united with the Kragle it might explode. The plan works out well and during the plan, Emmet and Wildstyle start to bond then Wildstyle reveals to Emmet that the reason she was looking for the Piece of Resistance was because she wanted to be the "Special" and that her real name is Lucy. But just when Emmet is about to place the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle, he and his friends are all immediately captured. When they are brought before Lord Business, Vitruvius fights both him and his robots off but gets killed by Lord Business killed in the process. Then with his last words, Vitruvius reveals to Emmet and his friends that he made of the prophecy but before he could explain why he dies. Lord Business then imprisons Emmet and his friends and removes the Piece of Resistance from Emmet's back with a exacto knife while also revealing that nobody every considered him special. He then drops the Piece of Resistance into the Eternal Abyss, leaves to attack Bricksburg with the Kragle on the top flour of the Office Tower, sets the Think Tank to self destruct with the other Master Builders, and also fires Bad Cop since he has not use for him anymore. Lord Business then commences Taco Tuesday where he attacks Bricksburg with the Kragle and his Micro Managers. Meanwhile, Emmet gives up hope and belief that he is the "Special," but Vitruvius's Ghost appears and reveals to Emmet that he made the Prophecy so that the whoever found the Piece of Resistance would believe in themselves. Emmet then regains his confidence, puts Lucy in charge of stopping Lord Business, and drops himself into the Eternal Abyss to stop the self-destruction and retrieve the Pieve of Resistance which frees all the Master Builders and saves them from being destroyed. Emmet's friends then go to stop Lord Business with Lucy getting an idea to inspire the people of the Lego Universe to fight along side them. To do that Emmet's friends take over the TV station and Lucy broadcasts a message through the Lego Universe inspiring the people to become Master Builders to and fight back against Lord Business by using Emmet and his ideas as a symbol of hope and declaring Taco Tuesday and Freedom Friday. However, the robots arrive to attack Emmet's friends but they are stooped by Bad Cop who joins Emmet's friends. Then Benny builds spaceship for them all to fly to Bricksburg and fight off Lord's Business' robots alongside the citizens of both Bricksburg and the Lego Universe and all the Master Builders. Meanwhile, Emmet ends up in the real world and finds out that the whole fight between him and Lord Business is based on the conflicting ideas over Lego sets between a boy named Finn and his workaholic father who is the Man Upstairs. Back in the Lego Universe, Lord Business uses the Kragle on the citizens of Bricksburg and has all his Micro Managers stop the people including Emmet's friends. When Finn helps Emmet get back the Piece of Resistance and sends him back to the Lego Universe, Emmet becomes a full Master Builder and fights back with a construction mech to save his friends who later fight alongside him. When Emmet confronts Lord Business and fights off his robots from the roof of the Office Tower, he later offers Lord Business a hand in friendship and a request to join him stating that the reason the people are building these new things with his stuff is because they're inspired by both him and each other. He also states that he doesn't have to be the bad guy and complements him for being so special. Meanwhile in the real world, Finn convinces the Man Upstairs to do the same thing. After a hug, President Business puts the Piece of Resistance on the Kragle which later explodes and destroys the roof of the Office Tower which causes all the Micro Managers to shut down thus ending the fight.

### Aftermath

Afterwards, Emmet is hailed as and hero and he and Lucy start a relationship with Batman's approval. President Business then uses the Kragle antidote on Bricksburg which frees everyone. Meanwhile, the Man Upstairs allows both Finn and his sister to play the Lego sets. Which causes aliens from Planet Duplo to invade Bricksburg thus causing the Brother vs. Sister War.
