Twilight, simply because seeing the anguish of the vampire-loving teenage girls as they're sparkly idols become children's toys would hilarious.
I went with the Starcraft option, though there are a lot of other things that I could list that I would have liked to see made into a Legos.
Zelda is one of the main ones I would like to see done, and I've been suggesting that from the age of 10, so it actually seems like it would be a natural choice. Colorful locations (especially large dungeons and castles, which is what Legos seems to be made for), lot's of peripheral but distinctive characters, and just a lot of things that Legos seems to use when making sets.
Maybe I'm missing something here, but I really don't get why Discworld is such a popular option. Don't get me wrong, I love the books, more than a lot of people I know, but most of the reason I like it is the writing (dialogue, the way things are worded, and especially the footnotes). Though I do like some of the character, it just doesn't seem like the most visually distinctive world (compared to some other options), which means that Legos wouldn't have a lot to go with.

'Colour of Magic' is TV special for Sky over here in England. For everything else...Ummm...get the Author in to check on what the developer makes up? Just to make sure its a justified representation.
I'm a bit confused. By Lego-ized, do you mean just a Lego set of the toy, or an actual game (like Lego Starwars?) For a game, I want to say Discworld, but then that would ruin it for me 
. Discworld needs a real game (on a current-gen consul) before a Lego game.
As for a toy set, then Discworld would still be my vote.I want to see how the Unseen University would be made into a set...

Yes, but they made plenty of harry potter movies and games before it, didn't they? I hope they just leave Terry Pratchett's work alone.Belladonnah said:
LEGO-ise Toy Story!
Also, the Marvel universe and DC universe in full. Instead of just Batman, have a full DC LEGO game, and imagine getting to switch around the Avengers. Funtimes.
Fallout would be funny to see as LEGO, as would the Matrix or Max Payne, but if you were going to do any slow motion over the top series you should do Wanted, by Mark Millar.

Yeah, I picked Twilight only because having your franchise LEGOized strikes me more as a last gasp for popular recognition than an improvement upon existing excellence. Although Twilight probably would be improved by being LEGOized - at least then the characters would have more depth. ^^;
While a Lego Starcraft (or maybe a franchise that could work as a Lego RTS like Lord of the Rings) sounds cool I would like to see any sort of Lego RTS; they may put the fun back in resource building.
However, I had to click Discworld. I'm just too much of a Pratchett fan; my head exploded from just the notion.
But are there any Discworld Lego Kits out there?
