Lego Movie Featurette: Batman Misses George Clooney

A new featurette was released today in support of the upcoming LEGO Movie, which stars Will Arnett as Batman along with a host of other famous names playing characters both original and licensed. And in one bit, the LEGO characters are asked their opinions on the actors who were hired to voice them for the movie. It's a fun little bit, especially when Morgan Freeman has a monologue about the "sweet molasses" that is the voice of Morgan Freeman. But Batman's was a high point--wherein he laments not getting George Clooney (who played Batman in the reviled Batman & Robin) to play the part. "So, they got Will Arnett to play me," Batman tells the camera. "Which I guess means that Clooney passed." Check it out below.
