We’ve loved LEGO NINJAGO since it first hit the bricks. Seriously. I’ve lost count of how many “Ninja—GO” shouts this house has heard. We’ve built, we’ve watched the show, we’ve battled, and we’ve read NINJAGO for years now. To say we’re excited that our favorite ninjas are hitting the big screen is kind of an understatement.

A new animated adventure in Warner Bros. Pictures’ LEGO® franchise, “The LEGO NINJAGO Movie” stars Dave Franco, Justin Theroux, Fred Armisen, Abbi Jacobson, Olivia Munn, Kumail Nanjiani, Michael Peña, Zach Woods, and the legendary Jackie Chan.

In this big-screen NINJAGO adventure, the battle for NINJAGO City calls to action young Master Builder Lloyd, aka the Green Ninja, along with his friends, who are all secret ninja warriors. Led by Master Wu, as wise-cracking as he is wise, they must defeat evil warlord Garmadon, The Worst Guy Ever, who also happens to be Lloyd’s dad. Pitting mech against mech and father against son, the epic showdown will test this fierce but undisciplined team of modern-day ninjas who must learn to check their egos and pull together to unleash their inner power of Spinjitzu.

Fill your decorating bag with your matching frosting to your cupcakes (you will have to switch the tip to a new bag for each color) and frost each cupcake by drawing flat lines across your cupcakes (think mummy) leaving an opening on the yellow fondant for the eyes.
