- TriviaWhile the documentary suggests the young filmmakers making the BrickFilm "Melting Point" were editing the final parts of the film when the documentary was released, this was unfortunately not quite the case. In fact, the director was near radio silent on the film's progress until 2017-- a good four years after they announced the film on Kickstarter-- releasing a short BrickFilm explaining what happen to the film: it was too ambitious of a project and he would rather stay creative by becoming a writer. Since then, he has not made any more BrickFilms, however his book remains available on Amazon. He has gone on record saying he will release the scenes he already had filmed, most of which have still yet to be released. Additionally he offered refunds to anyone who contributed on the Kickstarter who requested one. It is unclear whether refunds were successful or not.

Everything You Need to Know
A Lego Brickumentary (2014)
*** (out of 4)
Jason Bateman narrates this somewhat long-winded by highly informative documentary about the history of LEGOs and why everyone loves them so much. The documentary covers how the company got started, the early troubles with fire and then goes into detail about how the company evolved over the decades to become a global phenomenon. We get interviews with fans, master builders as well as people who have a dream job of creating new models.
If you're a fan of LEGOs then you'll certainly love this film as it really does tell you everything you need to know about the company and its fans. The documentary does a very good job with the history but it also gives you a good idea of what they plan on doing in the future including how they got fans involved with what they come up with . We get to see some of the amazing large creations that superfans have come up with as well as some of the fan-made movies.
