When the list of Oscar nominees was announced Wednesday, the Lego Movie wasn’t on the list for animated feature film.
The movie’s director, Philip Lord, responded on Twitter:
After tweeting out the picture, he followed up by saying, “This is not a tragedy. Congrats to incredible crew and cast of The Lego Movie, who made a classic.”
The Lego movie certainly made money, grossing $258 million, according to IMDB.com. A sequel is in the works.
