I want to start writing a Lego film based on 'The Purge' Universe. I would like it to be 10-15 minutes possibly, focusing on a main character dealing with the horrors etc. whilst showing some scenes of action between other citizens. I want to know if anyone has any ideas to help me out! Thanks.

Well, when I think of the name 'Purge' I think of the trilogy of Purge movies. When you say 'Purge' universe, are you referring to that? If you are, then I would be interested in seeing what your take on the concept would be, because the idea of the Purge has a lot of potential, but the movies don't really use that potential to their advantage.
Yes exactly as you say. I want to create something using that particular concept however something less 'cliche' than a Hollywood movie etc.
Sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure how much I can help you with coming up with a plot, but I remember hearing someone say the the Purge would probably work well if it was made as a dark comedy. That might actually be an interesting take on the Purge. If you made it a dark comedy, you could still focus on the dramatic, and horrifying side of the story too.

Ooh that could be quite interesting. It would be quite hard to incorporate that but I think it'd work really well. I've never been too keen on comedy in Lego films as I always find it very cheesy and 'Laurel & Hardy-esque.' A dark comedy could actually work quite well though.
Literally any ideas you have, just throw them at me 
Thanks Will.
