: The reason is that they are not LEGO Gandalf and LEGO Batman, they are versions of Gandalf and Batman from universes that have no understanding of what a "LEGO" might be.

But this first clause is '''''precisely''''' wrong. They ''are'' LEGO Gandalf and Batman, namely, LEGO Gandalf and Batman from LEGO universes where the LEGO inhabitants ''believe they are not LEGO'''; they believe they're Batman and Gandalf from the original properties completely. This is what the Burton quote illustrates! They're not LEGO Movie Batman and Gandalf, of course. But this is a different statement. They're still LEGO! I also once again direct you back to the Portal issue when you're insisting that the ''Doctor Who'' sections were treated with different gravity. This is true here ''as well'', and we know that this is irrelevant here. I get that you don't like this comparison, but it's sufficient to show that extra care to a section, not simply redoing something that previously existed, doesn't entail that there was intent for it to "count". You need more than that. And the Sharples quote could be that! But I think the Burton quotes and the Mystery Dimension are more than enough to make this very very messy as far as intent is concerned. Is it enough to get R4 disqualification? I dunno. It is for me. But everyone has their own standards.
