Finn seems to forgive his father for heavily scolding him and impeding on his creativity/special interest. In turn, Lord Business is suddenly forgiven by the whole LEGO universe. The second film makes it more vague whether Finn forgave his father, though, as Lord Business isn't positively portrayed during his few appearances in that one.

Bad Cop and Lord Business try to find Emmet, going as far as putting a tracking device on him and following him all the way to Cloud Cuckoo Land, and destroying that place in the process. He’s followed throughout the movie. He is okay in the end.

Not sure how much this counts or not, but a dad heavily scolds his son and impedes on his son's creativity. He rectifies his treatment towards his son, though.

Vitruvius is decapitated and dies (but he doesn’t die immediately). Emmet is briefly decapitated when he’s falling and hitting everything but his head comes back on. A Minifigure is nearly decapitated by robots during the Cloud Cuckoo Land battle. On that note, many robots are decapitated. No blood ever.

Lego figures don’t really have actual fingers or toes, which is joked about at one point in the movie where they describe humans as having hands that look like they’re made of sausages. As a result there’s no finger or toe injuries, though Lord Business at one point thinks that Emmet wants to physically give him his hand, but since he’s a Lego figure I don’t think having a hand removed would be painful, and it can just be reattached.

It is notable that a child playing with a set of his father's LEGO, arranged in scenes, is made to watch him gluing them back together, making them "not toys" anymore. Your mileage may vary on the opinion of gluing LEGO...

There’s a scene where the main characters are in a submarine and Vitruvius says “Why are my pants cold and wet?” making Wyldstyle think he peed himself, however it turns out it was because the submarine was being filled with water. It’s meant to be a joke and Vitruvius didn’t actually pee.

This is true in two ways.

1. The LEGO universe operates with a humorously chaotic nature. Characters will act in silly ways (played for laughs). Some sound effects will be onomatopoeias, e.g. the words "pew pew", "oink", and "meow", spoken by an off-screen voice.

2. Emmet has a psychedelic vision of the future toward the start of the movie, with quick and erratic transitions between shots, distorted colors, overlapping sounds and voices, and some quick flashes of bodily mutations involving LEGO minifigure parts and a LEGO minifigure's face spinning. Freaked me out as a kid. It happens when Emmet finds and touches the "Piece of Resistance" and lasts for about 30 seconds.

Yes and no. The audience is never directly addressed, but we see both the LEGO characters in the LEGO world and the boy and his father in the real world. So, it's a fourth-wall break from the Lego perspective, but not really from ours. At one point a LEGO characters sees his own world from the "real-world" perspective.

The Millenium Falcon gets eaten by a giant worm with no chance of escape and Lando Calrissian is in it, they never confirm if he outright dies and this film was made before his pansexuality was confirmed. Dumbledore appears at the end of the film and thus survived.

Vitruvius is portrayed as a "magical Black person who helps white lead" who dies first. The whole film parodies Hollywood cliches so you could argue this is satire but it's not explicit if that's true. There’s also a Native American with a feather headdress in the Wild West bar. The villain seems to somewhat appropriate Mexican culture with his “Taco Tuesday” celebration with sombreros. "Trinity syndrome" and the film fails the Bechdel test.

There is one sequence that plays this for laughs in which Emmet tunes out Wyldstyle’s dialogue in favor of “blah blah in angry at you but I think you’re cute” or something along those lines. Even then it’s a kind of G rated version where it’s not so much sexual as much as it is romantic tension
