A League Of Legends Movie

MeGaBiTz··11 votes·1,257 views

I'm really interested if RIOT can invest in making a movie , but not a short one like the cinematics , a real movie... And the story to be about a batle between Demacia and Noxus , will be really intersting , and i think you gonna have so many viewers. Hope you gonna understand the priority of making a movie , and just think about how many league players you have now, and how many viewers you gonna have. IT'S A BIG OPORTUNITY!

You're literally making this thread every month in all boards, aren't you...

Plus haven't you see the Assassins creed movie? Or the WC one? No matter how good they made the WC one, it was unfinished and not what it should of been.

Idk about wc but assassins credd was a tually pretty good; it actually stayed really accurate to the video games despite using different characters and minor changes.

Lacked pretty much everything. LAck most movies these days. Pointless to do a movie if you make them feel, rush and unfilled as a whole.

They should definitely give it a try. If I remember correctly (I think from the Jhin cinematic) their cinematics, usually lasting a minute each, only take a few weeks. But I think for a movie, they can make certain scenes not as detailed to fasten the process. I'm sure many non-LoL players would be intrigued as LoL's lore is actually pretty interesting,

I think the problem is the world of Runeterra is too big to really get someone invested in and tell a story about in 2hrs or less.

Only a book can describe the world well enough, a movie can just show pictures and leave you unaware of anything :d And become recent years is all about love stories and it will need to be more appealing to the teens and stuff, the movie will look like this

Champion X is our new main, Champion x2 is our second main, Champion X and Champion X2 love each other magically for no reason, Champion X3 is evil. Champion X and X2 meet Champion X4 and X5 and X6 and unite in a big friend group! Mid the movie Champion X4 and X6 fall in love, so we got 2 lovers couples, 78 out of the 120 mins of the movie will be drama with the couples, kissing, maybe a half naked sex or something, betrayal, then love again. Champion X5 dies or get injured badly by X3. X1 and X2 defeat X3 with the power of love. Movie ends X1 and X2 and X4 and X6 loving and stuff and having a happy end.

This is how the movie will look overall in the current "good movie" standards. Pretty much lore will be a minority. Not enough money for all champions or even 10% of them. Not enough screen time. Some minor action and magical CGI effects, lots of love/drama.

Do we really want that? IT kind of messes up the whole League feeling, both towards the champions we know and love and for the lore.

I think you're forgetting a big part of this whole "Movie Equation" thing you drew up; who's directing it. Not every director is going to make a movie that is supposed to be about action, magic, monsters, and fighting into some cheesy romance movie. In fact I'd hope to god that no director did that. I doubt that if Riot made a movie, they'd include lots of love/drama; Champions in League don't really have those connections and Riot (being the creators and such) realizes this.

Personally, I believe that a movie detailing the reasons why the Institute of War was created would be good; they could include a bit of backstory for big Demacian, Noxian, Ionian, or really any characters. And by that, I mean a movie that focuses around the city-state conflicts and the wars/battles they fight, and the Institute of War springing up because of it.

You're right. Okay here's what a good LoL movie will need and it will have my full support:

1 - Quentin Tarantino 2 - Robert Rodriguez 3 - Not telling them that Katarina exists so they don't add/mention her in the movie 4 - Reread 1 and 2.

That will be a movie I'd pay even 50 bucks to watch. :p

Problem is though that the Institute of War isn't canon anymore; the Rune Wars are still a thing and Ryze was involved in them, but the League and Summoners don't canonically exist in the world of Runeterra.

For the real LoL fans, summoners and league exists. No matter how they try to delete our existence! Q_Q

Summoners are the players and the League is the community of said players. We don't actually exist in Runeterra; we're just nigh-omnipotent demigods plucking interesting and/or powerful individudals from Runeterra and forcing them to fight in 5v5 MOBA deathmatches for naught but our own amusement.

That's what I said. They want to delete our abusing butts from history! What's next? League of Legends IRL! Forcing the summoners to fight to death to protect/attack a building ! :{

Problem was that it was pretty difficult to write a compelling story about such OP motherfork()ers like the Summoners without a lot of plot holes or fridge logic moments that would kill the premise behind the conflict itself. That and some of the newer champs kept having stories that would not plausibly land them in the League or wouldn't make sense for them to be under the control of such an organization, so they decided that having the League of Legends and the excuse plot it provided actually exist in Runeterra was holding them back so they got rid of it.

Just wait. A Noxian Tale part 2, will break your theory. I promise. If you don't know what I'm talking about I just posted a new chapter, there's a link to the main page. Sunday I'll be starting the new set of chapters , which will be something awesome (at least for me). ta ta: P

I tend to take one's own promotion of a work that has yet to be completed with a grain of salt but ok.

I can only self promote, sorry Q_Q You never gave me a chance anyway >_>

I'd like them to release books about champions' lores. I'm kind of a book nerd xD But yeah, a movie would be really amazing...as long as they don't ruin it. lol

(promotion time)

I'm doing a "book"! Soon gonna start part 2, feel free to check Noxian tale here on the boards! :p (if u aren't ready it already xD)

JUST SAYING, don't kill me! I need to promote my work somehow too Q_Q And and and half the EU rito support team likes it! so it's probly okay :-;

Evêñtfûl Hôrïzôñ1 votes

If only you could publish it and Riot could sell it...that would be epic! ^.^ Also, that sounds awesome. Good luck on your stories!

zrWQMdGHtY1 votes

Yet I'm left unnoticed by the devs and their recent changes on the lore hurt my tale badly. I think if they had a quick grammar edit, they could of released it in the merch store and sold pretty well, just because of the "league of legends official" symbol. But well.. We cant have nice lives, can we :{ Maybe in time I'll just have to rename the chars and release it as a NOT LoL fiction if the lore keeps going this drastic :{{{

Evêñtfûl Hôrïzôñ1 votes

RIP, devs no reply. Well, even if you couldn't publish a book, it's nice to see a well-made story pop up on the Concepts & Creations boards every once in a while.

######Oh lol, I just changed my name but it's says I'm still UntouchableNinja on the boards xD

zrWQMdGHtY1 votes

cough cough I mean, the viewer count is always the same, if they weren't just silent viewers but gave more feedback or up/downvotes, maybe it could of gotten to the main page of the boards (where all sections have a top list ect ect) and the devs might of noticed and maybe then they wont just say "we don't need u human we don't like" when I send them a job application :{ (this tale takes me so much time and I still cant find a job >_<) well... Ima go and try to promote on tweeter to my army of bot followers XD (16!)

Evêñtfûl Hôrïzôñ1 votes

I guess people are too busy meme'ing or QQing on the gameplay boards xD oh well, don't give up! ######SERIOUSLY, don't give up, I was playing an ARAM and our nexus had 50 HP left. We won because we didn't give up and we pushed to win the game.

zrWQMdGHtY1 votes

Then go read it ! (rofl) it's just 20 chapters! (cough 4 in the middle unfinished)

Evêñtfûl Hôrïzôñ1 votes

4 in the middle unfinished)

wat

It sounds pretty neat, but I'd have to find all of the complete ones and open 20 tabs xD Oh well, I'd do it for lore stories that Rito ignores. :)

Though I should probably get off soon.

zrWQMdGHtY1 votes

Find?

http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/XlKibnEB-a-noxian-tale-teaser-and-explanation

Everything is there o_o

And yeah. I am doing reworks, but started doing them as I wrote chapter 15 -20 and when I finished started the rest from 1 to 14, only 11 to 14 left, but they are still there, but not in a full state as they should (not directors cut, if it's easier to say it)

With some luck Part 2 will start Sunday. xD

Fugertech here again (seems to be a common occurrence, at least for the moment :^)), just dropping an opinion/statement off for you.

Ahem

As a fellow writer, I understand your plight (and I'll soon be checking out your story). You could always do what I did and just not go cannonistically; the lore was updated, but I still like to think about the Institute of War and all the parts of Valoran that were never really explored/mentioned. I've actually created my own little version of it in some of my stories (they're just harmless little fictions posted on fanfiction.net).

zrWQMdGHtY1 votes

Excuse me. But I don't like using the title writer for me, until I get that title given to me, by someone who can actually review and criticize the almost novel sized tale. Not that anything, but I never write a school report or an essay in my life, never less a book or a story or anything of the sort. And it's not, because I had no education or it was too bad, but I just didn't want to, because I knew I cant so I found other ways to finish my education. Which leads me to the part where, I did this, because I needed to do it.

So fellow writer isn't a correct term to use while speaking, about me and my work. As maybe you are a writer, but I am not :p But still, do enjoy the read. And this isn't modesty out of me, it's just a fact. And enjoy. Hopefully the 4 remaining chapters will be done until Sunday, together with the release of chapter 1 of the Part 2.

Cheers.

P.S. The grammar isn't perfect and there might by typos and such as I am not good at seen my own errors, no matter how many times I reread them, because I normally read with my imagination and not with my eyes, which makes me blind to the words/letters. Plus I am not a native latin alphabet user, which makes it obvious that I ain't a native English speaker.

as I said earlier, cheers and enjoy .

Not tryna sound like a weeb or anything, but I think an anime-style show would be the coolest and best way to go. Movies are too short and live action fantasy shows are pretty cheesy sometimes.

Arakadia1 votes

Battle of the Three Sisters, Noxus and Demacia, Ionian Invasion, Shurimian events with Xerath and Azir would all be really interesting.

CobaltTheMadMage1 votes

So really general consensus is it would be better off as a series of short films or miniseries for different subplots in the League of Legends universe rather than a single all-encompassing story- book, movie, or otherwise?
