Great news! I just learned that a few days ago, Alibaba Pictures, a Chinese film company, bought the rights to Warrior Cats. This means that there will in fact be at least one Warrior Cats movie, so long as the project doesn't fall flat. The release probably won't be for a few years, but it's definitely awesome news. I can share an article tonight. It's a little hard to do from my phone.

Here's hoping they don't ruin it!
Also, for those of you who don't trust outside links, this information is also available on the Warrior cat's website.
Do you think they'll cram it all into one giant movie or break it up into the story-arcs or even do a separate movie for each book or two?

They would have to break it up. Trying to cram that much story into one movie would just be an incomprehensible mess.

True but film-making companies have made similar incomprehensible messes out of treasured series Avatar the last Airbender

I feel like it'd be best to make it into a series. The first book has an ending that prepares you for more, and then After that, they can make one for Books 2 and 3, then 4 and 5, then have 6 get its own.

he kind of just disappeared after the forgotten warrior
I wonder if the Erin Hunters even remember him-he was the real forgotten warrior
hehe
anyway I know it's stupid but his name kind of annoys me ‘Sol’ means ‘sun’ in Spanish. Would you name a brown, black, and orange (I think) cat Sun? So why would you name one Sol? It's the same thing really. If his name is Sol he should be white or orange. I mean yes so he is partly orange but he shouldn't be BLACK AND BROWN mostly and be named AFTER SOMETHING THAT IS ORANGE/YELLOW BUT LOOKS MORE WHITE FROM EARTH
so yes
stupid rant there

I think another thing is that it's really easy to write Warriors fanfictions, at least for me. The way the whole Warriors universe is set up it's easy to make your own character and place them in it, too. And yeah Warrior cat names are real easy to make. Personally I didn't even like cats until reading warriors- I had a pet dog and thought dogs were the greatest things and cats sucked. Once I started reading Warriors I became obsessed with cats. I definitely liked to imagine the cats I soon got as warriors-i even attempted to write a warrior fanfic where one of them did become one.
I guess something else is Warriors was something new- basically wild cats that were social like dogs so dog and cat lovers would like it. Of course now there are so many Warriors rip-offs (i mean people write “original” fiction with groups of wild cats) that its pretty much the least original thing now. Warriors has fairly good plotlines, but the characters are either mary-sue or don't even have a real personality, so I cant understand how so many people can get so obsessed with the characters. Warriors probably has more reader x character fanfics than any other fandom

Honestly, I thought more people would reply to this rant. Maybe I just made too many liable points (totally not patting myself on the back there. Or, maybe they just didn't want to read the whole thing through.

I agree completely. It was basically asking for fanfics. Designed that way. Yeah, absolutely. Like I said before, it was asking for OC's.Well, I don't really know what to tell you there. What made you want to pick up the book? My point exactly. You took the words straight from my mouth.

I got tired in a bookstore so I sat in a chair and there was a book in front of me with a picture of a cat on the cover. I love cats so I picked it up and read through the first few pages and I was hooked on Warriors from that moment on…

Yeah, the movie will probably be really cool… and I don't know about you guys, but I was bullied for liking Warriors irl, and when the movie comes out, and it gains popularity… then those bullies might like it even though they bullied people for liking it before ;m; That would be really pathetic and aggravating, you know? And the other crowd would just like it ignorantly.
