It looks like Blizzard and Legendary are getting this right.Isn't LOL popular enough or has enough money to make a movie too?

They might want to iron out the lore, first. :(

No, we need a TV show. A movie would be too cluttered and wouldn't feature enough champions. Most likely, it would either focus too closely on one person, or would be too unfocused to be understandable. A TV show could flesh out all of the different aspects of Runeterra, and focus on different champions every week.

League role isnt really for movie. Most stories are very short.

Orcs and humans? Again? I'm sick of orcs and humans in game, but apparently they needed to make a movie out of them only? No way I'm going to see that movie.

Also, WoW has a lot of decent lore to draw from and there are people who really care about it, but I'm not sure if anyone is actually passionate about LoL lore. Does LoL have any books, webseries, or official short stories? It just seems all over the place and very disconnected to me, basing a movie off that would likely not be a good decision.

After actually watching the trailer, it doesn't look too good. Cheesy plot, sort of cartoonish. That works well in WoW, "rule of cool" is what well, rules there, but for an actual movie I don't think it's going to come off the same way. Those footmen and orcs look too cartoonish/fake, and that closeup on the guy's armor makes it look like it's plastic.

I think it's more based on the original Warcraft RTS games, not the MMO

If we want a League of Legends movie, we need to wait as long for it as Warcraft fans (the original RTS games) did. In other words, a pretty long time
