10. The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

There may be some questions over how a LEGO Movie sequel can work after the fourth wall-breaking revelation at the end of the first movie (which was one its most magical moments), but the success of that movie and the LEGO Batman spin-off made this inevitable. And at least the Batman movie suggested the universe could continue even with the reality of the characters' existence demystified.

This time out, the characters are surviving in a post-Taco Tuesday apocalypse when an intergalactic invader appears and kidnaps most of Emmet's friends forcing him on a journey to return them from the Systar Universe and out of the clutches of the evil Queen Watevra Wa-Nabi.

The fact that it's got girl power all over it and the name of the enemy universe all-but gives the likely twist away, but the opportunity to spend more time with Chris Pratt's Emmet (and his new character Rex Dangervest, who's a walking parody of most of Pratt's other heroic screen roles, hilariously) is more than enough to justify the hype in itself.

Release Date: 8th February 2019
