The Lego Movie is out this weekend and is expected to make more than $50 million opening weekend.

That would give it the largest opening of 2014 so far.

If you're taking the kids to see it this weekend, here's something to ponder while the opening sequence pans over an elaborately-made virtual Lego world.

There are a total of 3,863,484 unique Lego bricks in the movie.

According to the film's production notes, many of those bricks were reused to create many of the film's scenes.

However, if you wanted to recreate the entire movie, you would need 15,080,330 Lego pieces.

In addition, a total of 183 different types of Lego minifigures can be seen in the film.
