The LEGO Batman Movie Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras 

The LEGO Batman Movie's SteelBook is a joy. It's a standout with its dominant yellow coloring, front and back, which is the color of a solid LEGO brick background with no seams or other pieces anywhere to be found. On the front, a mini figure Bruce Wayne, his face partially cut off at the bottom, holds up the Batman mask to a centered position. The DC logo sits near its customary top-left position and gives way to the words "Always be yourself...unless you can be Batman." The film's title appears in a Bat symbol above the mask, with only the word "movie" in white lettering outside. The rear side is a little less cluttered with only an enlarged Batman symbol appearing center, the same one from the front only a little larger. The spine breaks up the yellow with a long (~34x2) black LEGO piece running its length. The film's title appears in yellow, a little off-center towards the top. Blu-ray, LEGO, and DC logos appear above and a WB shield appears at the bottom.

Inside, the digital copy code is tucked underneath the left-hand side tabs. The Blu-ray and DVD discs are housed on the right, staggered-stacked. The inner print is a gorgeous two-panel spread featuring a grouping of monitors taking the shape of the Batman symbol, a massive array of visual delights above various LEGO pieces, all situated somewhere deep within the Bat Cave. A very small credits cluster appears bottom-right along with some additional logos and legalese.

The LEGO Batman Movie Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

What a SteelBook! A joy of simplicity, loud but tasteful dominant yellow coloring, a nicely offsetting black spine, and a cool two-panel inner spread make this one of this reviewer's all-time favorite Steels. The film is terrific and the technical and supplemental content rates very highly, too. Very highly recommended.
