Contexts of 2014 poster

What was happening in 2014? How do the products reflect the society in 
2014 when it was produced?

Lenny henry was the first black lego mini figure to be created showing a shift 
in society moving towards diversity and acceptance. contrastingly in the 
movie there are few black characters most of them being yellow showing 
the difference and baiased based on skin tone 

Wyldstyle does not uphold stereotypical gender roles which reflects the rise 
in feminism showing she is not a stereotypical housewife she is shown to be 
strong and independent 


Vitruvius is the only black character in the film showing the lack of diversity 
in the film itself
