Agreed! I also like how it feels like a mix of the 1920s - 30s yet also has a slight timeless feel in consideration to other modulars, like it feels modern yet classy. Build on!
This was the Modular Building that started it all for me. Was my first purchase and was honestly one of the best builds I had in a while. Granted I do like other modular builds more but it was just satisfying as an out of the whim purchase.
Greetings from South Africa! I remember going to a vintage cinema once when I was a young kid in the eighties. Although the cinema has probably long been demolished sadly, and replaced with a more modern building (probably not a cinema), it brought back so many memories! I agree that the interior is slightly sparse - for example I would have added a cash register at the concession stand, more movie posters against the back wall under the lights, more seats in the cinema itself, a full projection booth (instead of just a platform), as well as a multi level floor so that my minifigs don't look into the backs of each other's heads. I think you're a bit over-critical of the car though. I think it's great that Lego goes in different directions with the design of their vehicles, and within the constraints of what Lego is I think they did a great job. I'd have to say that despite the sparseness of this set (in its defense it was one of the cheaper modulars at the time when I bought mine) it remains my favourite. While I might not agree with everything in your reviews, thank you for giving us such objective reviews of Lego sets. Yours are always the first Lego related videos that I watch on TH-cam. (And apologies for posting this two years after this review video was released...)
Jang, i thank you for your reviews, because if i watch them, i know what i buy, plus i just like the videos and i love to watch them. So once again: THANK YOU JANGBRICKS!!!
Batman and Gordan are definitely meeting on top of the Palace Cinema! (1 of those floodlight things will have the Batman signature put over it.....! Right guys......heh heh
Great review, I bought and built this today. Spent about 8hrs sorting all the bags out and building. I must admit I never had an issue getting the palace sign flush. Looks very nice with the bike shop and cafe. Now just need to get town hall and the emporium.
Yeah. It seems they retire one for every new one they add. So the 2020 set will probably retire either the detective's office or they will kick out the Parisian Restourant, which has already been here for an extra year.
A separate projection booth and a sloped floor would make the second floor of this thing so much nicer, and if there was a booth, then you could set the roof access up as a ladder in the booth and reclaim some of the space taken up by that dumb second staircase.
Currently this is the only Modular Building I own (although I hope to get the Detectives Office and maybe the Pet Shop too) and it i absolutely my favourite of the ones i've seen reviewed. I love the style of it and it looks brilliant on display. I also think that the screening room is appropriate to the style of the building and the minimalist space that is available in these builds. I really enjoy the build of the projectionist's stand and camera as well as the seats.
This was my first Modular set. At the time I thought it was great. Looking at your review I see now that it is quite plain. Great review, as always, thanks.
I mounted the searchlights on the roof-giving more a reason for roof access than merely building maintenance. And I agree the limo needed some modding-I made the sides taller and worked understructure to fit bigger wheels and made the convertible cover raised a bit for the boot area to look more natural. And I ordered bricks n pieces to vary posters, marquee, what is showing on screen, to create velvet ropes and stanchions, and to add a third row of chairs.
I have just purchased this set. I love the outside design. The inside that is a different story. I may add a square building with same design for the outside, to add an extra few theatre rooms a downstairs and upstairs and make the concession stand bigger add toilets. So the building will be able to still be a corner modular but with the ability to extend down the street.
I love the movie posters, especially the 'Brick Separator' and 'Mystery on the Monorail'. In my city, the monorail actually runs straight past the cinema.
You can add a 2 x 1 blue plate to the bottom of the sign which will stabilize it and will straighten it up :) My 6 yr old added it when I showed him I was having trouble! Good luck!
Excellent review. The outside look of these modular buildings is always great, but the insides tend to lack in design... maybe it's because they're just a little too small.
I have this set,I have the same feelings about the projector not being in its own room. The car seems like a after thought. The first floor seems too empty too.
I have watch this review many times because I continue to be on the fence with this set. I love the exterior (not a fan of the car). First floor is pretty good but the 2nd floor is just disappointing. Adding to the fact that this is called Palace Cinema I really expect the 2nd floor to blow me away. I just can't decide whether I want to buy it and then modify or just do a MOC myself entirely.
Ya know, I was worrying that I wouldn't be able to figure out how to mix my Ninjago movie, Batman movie, and Creator stuff into a single city... but with the Forever Sorting 2 reference in Joker Manor and the Return of Brick Separator reference in Ninjago City, I think I'm going to be just fine pretending these all take place in the same lego world. :P
yea man i feel you i think lego should go the extra mile and take their time to really make these modular sets amazing. it looks like they only pay attention to the front and not to the back or the roof or the interior.
Is this loosely based on the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood California? Some of the elements remind me of it including the red color, spires, steeple thing, and the star tiles.
I just finished building mine. the car looks fancy, so I like that. Funny thing is that the LEGO people in the set own a better car than me! Anyway, this goes great with pet shop or that restaurant. LEGO should make a new set, like a mall maybe.
I should have got a better job so I could afford all these awesome sets like Jang can, haha. This is the first i've seen of this one, I really like it, love those old movie theaters.
I brought two theaters and turned it into a twin theater. But I'm still not happy with the over all look. So I'm going to incorporate my own adjustments - ex: I'm going to add more realistic looking theater seats I'll make from card board - then make a large bathroom area. Maybe then I'll make two more theaters from card board boxes and add them to the pre-existing theaters. Too bad I don't have a way of recording this. I am pretty good with my hands at building realistic theaters from card board boxes. I've doing this since I was a kid. It started with mom's old shoe boxes then graduated from there to bigger boxes. I'd make card board seats - a snack bar - bathroom - etc. All this made entirely from card board boxes.
What I love about these sets are how they look like buildings from the 1920s and 30s.
same
Jeremy Rivers yeah. Nostalgia rocks!
The Emerald Men agreed. Looks amazing
Agreed! I also like how it feels like a mix of the 1920s - 30s yet also has a slight timeless feel in consideration to other modulars, like it feels modern yet classy. Build on!
Jeremy Rivers yeah! Some of the the modulars I would say - such as the pet shop and town house - are before the 1920s, maybe even 1905 or so

Marchárl Jankowitz how is it over there
Marchárl Jankowitz that was the longest comment ive ever read
Ideas for future modular buildings for "Lego Street"
Classic Arcade
haunted house halloween attraction
Lego Street park
1980s computer shop
court

I wish they didn't retire SO many of these modular sets
Yeah, now they're so expensive, it's basically impossible to get them
Yeah. It seems they retire one for every new one they add. So the 2020 set will probably retire either the detective's office or they will kick out the Parisian Restourant, which has already been here for an extra year.
Soem Random Dude detective office is already gone :/

If I had this I would customise the inside like enclose the cinema room and place a door at the top of the stairs

I have it and its pretty cool
The best set out of all the modular building series :) This set tempting me the most even though I haven't planned to start collecting this series yet
This was my first Modular set. At the time I thought it was great. Looking at your review I see now that it is quite plain. Great review, as always, thanks.
same! I kinda hate it now
I mounted the searchlights on the roof-giving more a reason for roof access than merely building maintenance.

This has 1 of the best , if not the best exterior that Lego has ever made for modulars. It is phenomenal, epic, breathtaking.
I think it is actually not that good if you compare it to some of the orher modulars. The second floor is very plain
Alger Ong As a person who is a fan of movies, this set is pretty good.
I agree about the car. The front looks great. But from the side. What the heck were they thinking! Love the movie theater build.
I have just purchased this set. I love the outside design. The inside that is a different story. I may add a square building with same design for the outside, to add an extra few theatre rooms a downstairs and upstairs and make the concession stand bigger add toilets. So the building will be able to still be a corner modular but with the ability to extend down the street.
At least they didn't include any Lego cellphones in this set! That would have ruined the movie!
nice
Nice build Jang, great work as always!
Got this for my birthday!
It is HUGE!
Also nice video Jang!
This definitely should have come with a light brick for the screen or projector
The brick seperater 🤣
Minnie Figure
...
That's just precious
This was my first modular building I ever brought. Since then I have modified it. Still one of my favourites.
Me too!
LOL It’s my first modular to XD
Same here (as it being my first modular building)! Afterwards I got the Pet Shop.
Alan Noronha same
Awesome! Looks like it has good pieces.
love this set.😻😍 I've watched this video 8 times
If u buy 15 of the gremlin packs u can reenact the theater scene from gremlins.
I love the movie posters, especially the 'Brick Separator' and 'Mystery on the Monorail'. In my city, the monorail actually runs straight past the cinema.
I would love to see that! Minnie Figure to the rescue!
Just got this finished tonight with a friend. Looks good with the Parisian Resteraunt.
Can't top this
I'm getting this on Saturday love your videos jang
awesome review jang!
They went for a nostalgic look there. I wonder what a double size, modern style theather would look like....time to moc :)
I just simply love lego create because of the details of the set and you can cone t it
and the set
You can add a 2 x 1 blue plate to the bottom of the sign which will stabilize it and will straighten it up :) My 6 yr old added it when I showed him I was having trouble! Good luck!
3:41 Like at Regal Cinemas 1-6 at Western Old Orchard mall! Cool!
I love you're shows you made me get creative
to jang
I wold really like u to do a complete collection if the modular building all in on place and all connected
This set is amazing. I really want it for my moc
Is it just me or did you build the central arch on the top upside down?
i thought that to
Yes he built
what arch
LOVE THIS SET
I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!
I want that lego.All your Lego is amazing and beautiful:):):)
Did you know that the temple of the Ultimate Ultimate Weapon from the Lego Ninjago Movie also has illegal doors that bend the pieces
I'm hopefully getting that for Christmas
This set has a lot of detail. I lost some pieces to mine but overall it looks good on the outside
Excellent review. The outside look of these modular buildings is always great, but the insides tend to lack in design... maybe it's because they're just a little too small.
Nice one Jang
I got it for Christmas so I built it to add to my parisian restaurant, pet shop and detective's office
Nice review!!, one question, what backdrop do you use for your filming? Cheers
Waiting for this to arrive from lego shop@ home. ;)
Looks about funky on top. Having this set, I know it's not built properly here, but I'm sure Jang's got enough comments about this.
"'Let's all go to the lobby' and all that"
Cracked me up so hard
I have this set,I have the same feelings about the projector not being in its own room. The car seems like a after thought. The first floor seems too empty too.
Awesome!
Want this for Christmas
I’m getting this for Christmas
That's pretty awesome
Jeeez, really mailed it in on that car though. Can't believe that's an actual release.
I have this it is so awesome 😎
Good review
5:38 you attached that big bow with the daggers the wrong way, it is supposed to face up and not down
How come my palace cinema has arches facing upwards below the spire and yours are facing down??

I just can't decide whether I want to buy it and then modify or just do a MOC myself entirely.
I'm with you, I want this set from the outside, then when you get to the inside it all goes wrong. I think if I do buy this set I'll re do the inside.
Ya know, I was worrying that I wouldn't be able to figure out how to mix my Ninjago movie, Batman movie, and Creator stuff into a single city...
but with the Forever Sorting 2 reference in Joker Manor and the Return of Brick Separator reference in Ninjago City, I think I'm going to be just fine pretending these all take place in the same lego world. :P
jang you should order some of the printed tile pieces and mace a casino MOC
I like the starring:
Minnie Figure!
Hey JANG! You should make a movie theater for your city
JANG!!! YOU BUILT THE ARC ON THE TOP UPSIDEDOWN!!!
Well the 2nd floor is open to make it mimic and old style theater
this is really cool and how did you make such a big TH-cam channel did u just make it and it became popular
AWESOME!!!!!!!!
100% getting it tomorrow 😇
Realy great, i think i go buy iT to
3:52 Jordan MontaLEGOne
yea man i feel you i think lego should go the extra mile and take their time to really make these modular sets amazing. it looks like they only pay attention to the front and not to the back or the roof or the interior.
It looks cool
it looks BAD
i had this set and i built a 2 story house with an extra mini house with just 1 set!
11:05 for me the guy is Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic clothes xd
I like that set but i want you to do more
Your the best reviewer ever does anyone else think that
Fire 🔥🔥🔥
9:57 tan!
There's also a lot of metallic tan in this one
@@Brixxter M E T A L L I C T A N !
could you do a video of all the modular buildings together?
Is this loosely based on the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood California? Some of the elements remind me of it including the red color, spires, steeple thing, and the star tiles.
I just finished building mine. the car looks fancy, so I like that. Funny thing is that the LEGO people in the set own a better car than me! Anyway, this goes great with pet shop or that restaurant. LEGO should make a new set, like a mall maybe.
They already have a mall it is called the grand emporium
you should make a custom destroyer out of lego and try to make a working gun if you can please
* just for the people that didn’t know there is a exclusive the Lego movie poster sticker!
Can u still get the sticker?
I should have got a better job so I could afford all these awesome sets like Jang can, haha.
This is the first i've seen of this one, I really like it, love those old movie theaters.
Haha 0:38 have to keep everything perfect jang just like me!
I don't care that us tiny wheels and it's long but it is a cool old style gangster car and u haft to appreciate that
I'm getting this set soon
I think why they named it palace is because there is a very famous movie theahter in Copenhagen called Palads which translate to Palace
Jang can you make a moc on invasion from below nex and stringer?
Nice but i personally like the car. I wish I had this set lol
Lol? Is that funny 😑
Wow just wow
Can you please do a review on a architecture set like white house please
I brought two theaters and turned it into a twin theater. But I'm still not happy with the over all look. So I'm going to incorporate my own adjustments - ex: I'm going to add more realistic looking theater seats I'll make from card board - then make a large bathroom area.

will you show a fast building video on some of your sets
I would put the consteshon stand with the ticket stand
I came up with a backstory for the actress "Minnie Figure" that ties this set into my city, Deuson City.
