LEGO video games: What franchises should be LEOGized?

[Reloy3]

I read last night that, because of the success of LEGO Star Wars, this summer will see the release of LEGO Batman and LEGO Indiana Jones. LEGO Jones will reproduce the first 3 movies in a style like the Star Wars games. It was unclear in what I read if the Batman game will be related to the movies or the comics (I would love a LEGO Batman: No Man's Land).

My Kids love LEGO: Star Wars, and I'm syched about the Indiana Jones game, and it got me thinking, what else would be fun LEGOized?

I would like to see:
various team comic book adaptations (JLA, X-Men, Teen Titans, etc.) because of the interchangability of characters.
I'd love a LEGO: James Bond series.
Also LEGO: Monty Python (because I loved the Holy Grail LEGO scenes in the Holy Grail DVD).
Your thoughts?

The Spiderman movies could be a lot of fun.

I am not sure, but I think Lego Harry Potter is in the works.

Lego Final Fantasy. It actually sounds a lot less far-fetched than Kingdom Hearts must have before it came out.

According to this month's Game Informer, the Lego Batman game is going to be an amalgam of all of the eras of Batman (except for the "BIFF! POW!" stuff).

There are Lego Harry Potter sets, and there were a few Harry Potter "Lego Workshop" games for the PC a while back (which are most definitely not the same thing), but I think Lego Harry Poter games might be a little ways away yet.

But they're the most likely after Indy and Batman.

It's not as though dopers are responsible for all 1,580,000 hits on google you get with that acronym.

heh I love lego stuff, the lego "Thriller" is still one of my favs

[CarnalK]

Wild Wild West? A little long forgotten but I think it'd be a cool Lego game.

Alien was suggested jokingly but AlienS isn't a crazy idea! Imagine extending Lego sub-jaws!

I see I've been beaten to the Lego Matrix, so I guess it's time to go see if I can go produce a Lego Waking Life.

[Ranchoth]

•Ruggero Deodato's Cannibal/Jungle Holocaust series.
•The "Guinea Pig" series
•Lego The Sims (I think this would bring about the end of the world, one way or another)
•Speaking of which...Lego Evangelion.

LEGO Star Trek would be good fun.

LEGO Terminator vs Predator vs Alien vs Freddy vs Jason vs Chuck Norris.

[Student Driver]

While LEGO's trend seems to be in licensing popular movie franchises, I think it'd be interesting to see a take on existing game properties.

LEGO Metal Gear Solid
LEGO Tomb Raider
LEGO Mario (as the Paper Mario series has shown, the franchise lends itself to new variants)

All could use LEGO properties as puzzle-solving techniques; sure, Mario could jump up and break a brick like usual, but if he was holding a LEGO piece, he could hold it over his head and jump, inserting it into the brick, and hold on or hoist himself up.
