But at the same time, it has the same characters and it's supposed to be set in the same saga of stories. They even go out of their way to barely use the "movie" Batman just so the game won't contradict the movie. And since there is now a great precedent for the spin-off media heavily pushing against many of the original set-ups, the first film is clearly becoming the odd-one-out.

As I stated above, while many worlds in the LEGO verse take the "brick" concept to various lengths, the difference in how they treat the DWU is the most notable part. There is nothing that we've seen so far that suggests an attempt to avoid or rewrite the DWU. This is the important thing.

Also, the Doctor isn't a master builder. He in fact doesn't recognise any of the characters in the game when he meets them, and furthermore he clearly has rarely left his universe before he helps the team defeat the Daleks and open the rift (or something like that). Pretty much, he's just the Doctor. In his levels, the only non-Doctory thing that he does is punch things (which is a level system that Dimensions just comes with).
