You really need to stop trying to force The Lego Movie to be a rip-off of Midnight Express. That picture you uploaded a few minutes ago is an example of "cherry picking". That's when someone picks very specific details to support what they're saying while ignoring other details that wouldn't support it.

For example, you tried to put in that the scenes with Emmet and Wildstyle "cashes in" on the scenes with Billy and Susan, but in those first two pictures, policemen arresting Billy and Susan. No policemen are arresting Emmet and Wildstyle. I could look at any of the Star Wars movies and put a picture of Luke next to Billy and a picture of Leia next to Susan, then claim that Star Wars "cashed in" on Midnight Express simply because four random people happen to be standing.
