What Happened To WB's FIVE Shared Universes

The Lego Movie was a big hit for Warner Bros. in 2014. Taking Emmet (voiced by Chris Pratt ) through a colorful brick world and encompassing characters from a multitude of franchises and brands, the long-awaited debut of the Danish toy company on the big screen was enjoyed by adults and kids alike. Once again, this success set off the shared universe alarm at Warner Bros. HQ and it wasn't long before a direct sequel and a multitude of spin-offs were green

This time, the whole representation of the champion is literally flawless. All of the armor pieces along with the mighty sword look believable to an extent where you can almost see them being used in a battle. The amazingly good cosplay is so perfect that you can take it for an LoL screens

class=The huge popularity of the game results in a fair amount of themed cosplay . There’re creators from across the globe who share their masterful visions with the community. Some of the characters recreated by them look so authentic that they could easily be life-size models of the in-game 2Xko Champions. And here’re some of t

With Marvel's cinematic universe proving so lucrative, it was only natural to explore the possibility of something similar with DC's comic canon. Warner Bros. had all the same tools at their disposal and had just come off the back of their incredibly successful The Dark Knight trilogy when the MCU was evolving into a box office juggernaut. At this point Zack Snyder 's Man of Steel was already in production, and it made sense to use this Superman reboot starring Henry Cavill as the starting point for a full DC Universe encompassing all of the publisher's biggest heroes and villains in one timel

Hashinshin (real name Robert Brotz) is renowned among NA LOL fans for his constant innovation. His name is a wordplay on "Hashashin", which was an assassin medieval organization during the Middle Ages in the Middle E

Here's where all of the Warner Bros. shared universes are today, and which of them actually succeeded. The concept of several different movie series all being connected by a larger shared universe umbrella is not new to cinema. The Universal monster movie franchise popular throughout the 1930s and 1940s is often considered the very first example of a shared cinematic universe, tying together otherwise disparate franchises such as Dracula , The Mummy and The Wolf-Man . In Japan, Toho's kaiju movies also formed their own connected fictional world, with Godzilla front and cen

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

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

• The clone now mimics Wukong's attacks and ultimate but deals 60/65/70/75/80% damage • Basic attacks: The clone will attempt to attack enemies Wukong has recently attacked. • Q: Empower's clone's next attack. • E: The clone gains the Attack Speed buff • R: The clone starts spinning and will knock up enemies that haven's been knocked up already • The clone mirrors Wukong's animation state on spawn • Attacks from the tower instantly kill the c

The idea is to aggro towers using your deep health pool while allies move in or even bypass the tower with the ultimate and take an ally along for the ride. Your primary goal is to keep teammates alive and drawing attention to yourself. Items like Thornmail and Dead Man’s Plate help with t

That’s why cosplayers most often feature Jinx’s classic appearance. Belgian creator Roxace is no different, but what makes her special is that she resembles Jinx even without heavy makeup. And once she takes the full form of LoL ’s champion, the resemblance becomes uncanny . Even with the plush shark instead of the proper wea
