Lego Ninjago cartoon is actually quite good. Its on season 9 if i am not mistaken and the movie was pretty good too. Considering its an own brand - it's doing well.
Right? Let's see...
- GI Joe
- Transformers
- He-Man
- She-Ra
- Might Max
- Power Rangers
- Bionicle
- Ninjago
- Care Bears
- Street Sharks
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Those are just off the top of my head. TV shows (and in some instances movies) that existed to sell toys.
Well, I guess I can't necessarily disagree since your explanation requires admitting things that cannot be proven. I can say that I don't "feel" more inclined to purchase LEGOs, movie or not, then before. I see lots of the Ninjago show on Netflix because my daughter likes it, but I don't buy them that often and she doesn't ask for them.
I guess I would say that any positive mental associations I have is for the entertainment factor as I liked the movie and the Ninjago show. It certainly hasn't resulted in a positive enough influence to make purchases. That's the focus of my comments, that the article that started this discussion seems off to me because it suggests that the LEGO movie is just a huge branding effort to convince people they must buy LEGOs. Your comments are much softer than that viewpoint so I think I'd be more agreeable to your viewpoint than the article's.
