Even though the Lego universe ultimately did fail, the franchise at least dropped a couple of solid efforts before fading into cinematic obscurity. The same can’t be said for Warner Bros.’ planned King Arthur universe. Released in 2017 and starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword certainly had promise as a standalone venture, with Guy Ritchie directing and Jude Law in a key villainous role. In reality, the movie was widely trashed in reviews and made a huge loss for Warner Bros. financially. All of which makes the studio’s plans for a six-film shared universe seem all the more ridicul
If players need more Pulsefire Tokens, they can buy the Pulsefire Pass for 1650 RP. In addition to immediately getting 200 tokens and 4 Pulsefire Orbs, they will unlock the ability to earn tokens by playing matches throughout the ev
With the season just halfway through, it can be argued that all five Cloud9 members are worthy of winning the Spring Split MVP. Each of them are dominating in their own way, but perhaps none are more deserving than Zven. Playing excellent both mechanically and mentally, Zven along with his support Vulcan have dominated the bot lane this season, and week 5 was no different. Zven played an excellent Varus against CLG, who Cloud9 unsurprisingly beat. What was surprising, however, was Cloud9’s choice of bot lane in their second game against Immortals. Zven actually played “support” Senna, while Vulcan went Tahm Kench, acting as the “carry.” This is a strategy similar to what Dignitas Academy employed in their matchup against Golden Guardians Academy, where AD carry Fenix went Senna and support Olleh went Galio. Fenix “supported” Olleh as he farmed with Ga
The organization’s roster is still pretty similar to the one that won those four titles. Along with Tactical, the only different face is Mads “Broxah” Brock-Pedersen, who replaced Jake “Xmithie” Puchero in the jungle before the 2020 Spring Split. Team Liquid is still the stacked roster they were before, and Tactical’s potential to become a homegrown star is a positive sign for the franch
The Lego Batman Movie came next, taking one of the most memorable characters from the original and going ‘full DC’ with a whole cast of superheroes. Despite lacking the same box office clout as its predecessor, Lego Batman earned much praise from audiences, and comic book fans were especially impressed by the lighter, heartfelt take on the Caped Crusader. Unfortunately, that waning box office was a sign league Of legends meta things to come for Warner Bros.’ Lego Cinematic Universe . The Lego Ninjago Movie followed shortly after Will Arnett’s Dark (Yellow) Knight spin-off, but to much less fanfare and considerably lower revenue, perhaps paying the price for a more niche Lego concept. A direct sequel to the original, 2019’s The Second Part , failed to reverse those fortunes and other planned projects were swiftly axed. More recently, the Lego company have shifted focus back to toys after their own dip in revenue and Warner Bros. lost the movie rights to Universal earlier this year. Turns out everything isn’t awesome after
In perhaps one of the biggest esports news drops of the year, Team Liquid shockingly traded franchise cornerstone Doublelift to Team SoloMid after a ninth-place finish in the LCS. Doublelift will be replacing Kasper “Kobbe” Kobberup as the team’s starting AD carry through at least 2
Not to be confused with Universal’s Dark Universe (which failed, incidentally), the MonsterVerse is essentially a modern interpretation of the aforementioned Toho franchise that saw Godzilla and an array of other monsters do battle, usually in a surprisingly flimsy urban landscape. The franchise began with 2014’s Godzilla reboot, and by purchasing the rights to various other Toho beasts, Warner Bros. signaled their intention to develop the lore of their MUTO world . However, the MonsterVerse only kicked off proper with Warner Bros.’ involvement in Kong: Skull Island , a reboot of the titular gorilla’s big screen st
James Wan’s The Conjuring was already spiritually connected to the sub-genre of jump-scare heavy modern horror releases in the vein of Insidious and Sinister , and Warner Bros. were no doubt hoping the effort would make enough money to produce a run of sequels. The Conjuring would indeed go on to frighten its way into fans’ hearts and spook the cash from their wallets, and it was only then that the widespread potential of The Conjuring not just as a film series but as a fully-interconnected movie universe became cl
When the event starts, players will get free access to a series of 20 Pulsefire missions. These challenges have a main objective or an alternate condition of just playing a certain number of matches. Once a mission is completed, it will unlock the next one in line and this continues until all 20 are finished. All missions reward 12 Pulsefire Tokens except for the first one which also gives a “Pulsefire Core” Summoner I
