Postmodernist Films:
Postmodernist film is a classification for works that articulate the themes and ideas of postmodernism through the medium of cinema. Postmodernist film attempts to subvert the mainstream conventions of narrative structure and characterization, and tests the audience's suspension of disbelief.
Features:
Intertextuality
Metafiction
Pastiche
Maximalism
Irony
Hyperreality
Paranoia
Fragmentation

 The Lego Movie fits this term because it has intertextual features in it such as Batman. It also fits because it features hyperreality, such as the ability in the movie to travel through dimensions. It features fragmentation too because of the Lego heros being rounded up in different dimensions by the villain.
