(#7) As We Learned From The 1960s Batman Film, Shark Repellent Is A Must-Have
Did the kids who watched The Lego Batman Movie understand the shark repellent reference in the film? Unless their parents are total psychos, they probably haven't had to sit through the original Batman movie with its men being turned into salt (or whatever it was) and magic spray that can fend off man-eating sharks. It truly was a joke that took almost 50 years to pay off.
(#9) The Joker's Sick Rides Get A Nod
What's up with the Joker and cars? In the original cartoon, the Joker had a rad car with his face on it called the Jokermobile that didn't make structural sense (But who cares?). Then he had a cool shag-carpeted car in the '60s and, briefly, an oversized Dodge sedan in the '80s. After that, you may remember that he hung his head out the window of a cop car like a dog in The Dark Knight, and drove a nutso purple Lambo in Suicide Squad. That's a lot of information! In The Lego Batman Movie, every time the Joker is seen riding in a car, he's riding on the side fender for some reason. Does he know there are seats in cars or is this a part of his kooky, anarchic lifestyle?
(#3) Batman's Family Photo Is A Quick Reference To His Backstory
It's hard to make a Batman movie without telling his origin story. As opposed to guys like Green Lantern or Iron Man, Batman's origin is sort of his whole thing. The Lego Batman Movie references the murder of Batman's parents - they are about to see a movie next to Crime Alley - with a single photo, which is very cool. Kudos, Lego!
(#10) There Was A Mention Of The Parade The Joker Threw For Himself In The 1989 Film
Early on in the film, the Joker's many plans to destroy Gotham are being dissected and there's a one-liner about the time he threw himself a parade featuring the music of Prince. For those of you who are too young to remember when the Joker did something so fabulous, please go check out Tim Burton's 1989 genre-defining Batman film. If only there could have been a Lego version of Bat Dance.
(#15) That Bust Of Shakespeare Tips Its Hat To The Original Entrance To The Batcave
If you're a Batman superfan, then you know that he kept a secret button that opened a door to the Batcave inside a bust of Shakespeare, the Dark Knight of the theater. Look closely at the photo room in Wayne manor and you'll see a bust of the bard hanging out towards the back.
(#1) The Opening Score Is A Nod To The Joker's Theme From The Dark Knight
If you paid attention to the music that was playing under Will Arnett's trenchant critique of the film's production company logos, then you may have noticed that it was from what many fans believe to be the greatest Batman film made thus far. The atonal brass and strings that give way to tribal drums that were laid under the moment belonged to none other than Joker's theme from The Dark Knight. It makes sense to use this track in the film because the Joker plays a big part in the narrative and it's just great music to jam to when you're planning some catastrophic evil.
