WMG / The Loud House Movie

Go To

    Pre-release theories 

The Movie will be the Grand Finale.
The plot will involve Lola getting invited to the top beauty pageant in the country which is in Los Angeles, causing the Louds to go on a road trip. The ending of the movie will be a Time Skip to reveal that:
  • Lori and Bobby have 11 kids of their own.
    • Possibly the ones she imagined in that episode.
  • Leni got a cosmetology degree and is now the CEO of a major cosmetics company.
    • She's trying to invent a zebra-coloured mascara.
  • Luna grew out of her rock phase and is now composing classical music.
    • Technically, classical music is music from a certain time period, so unless she time traveled, she cannot compose that. However, she could conduct already written classical music or compose non-rock, although her rock "phase" has lasted years now, which means it's likely not a phase.
  • Luan ran away from home and joined the circus.
  • Lynn got a full-ride athletic scholarship - for golf.
  • Lincoln wrote a series of memoirs about his family.
  • Lucy is getting her doctorate in mortuary science.
  • Lola and Lana both became TV actresses on a show satirizing Full House.
  • Lisa discovered the cure for cancer and won several Nobel prizes.
  • Lily is a gamer.
    • Jossed. The movie's plot is about the Loud family discovering that they're descended from Scottish royalty.

The series will eventually have a Big Damn Movie.
  • The parents' faces will be revealed in their entirety.
  • It will be Live Action.
  • It will be more fantasy based.
    • Possibly involving Lucy? She's dealt with magic.
  • It will be a prequel showing the birth of Lincoln or one of the other siblings.
    • Jossed for the parents' faces part.
    • Lincoln's birth has already been shown but they could show it again in more detail.
  • Or, it could be a comedy film, produced by Nickelodeon Movies and Jam Filled Entertainment, and distributed by Lionsgate, and would have a mostly 80's-music soundtrack, filled with hair metal and new wave and Latin freestyle tunes.
  • CONFIRMED!

Post your movie ideas here.
  • The movie will be Darker and Edgier Deconstruction take on the series similar to Ed, Edd n Eddy's Big Picture Show, where Lincoln, being the Butt-Monkey, reaches a Rage Breaking Point, questions his relationship with his sisters, and what effect it puts on his psyche. Of course, the film would feature the family reconciling and learn about the importance of Forgiveness.
  • The movie will be a prequel, showing the younger years and births of all the Loud children, as well going deeper into events such as Rita and Lynn Sr.'s first meeting and Luna's first concert. Kind of similar to "The Powerpuff Girls Movie".
  • In the grand history of Slice of Life animated sitcoms that get a Big Damn Movie (Recess, Hey Arnold!, The Proud Family, etc.), we can probably expect the following plot points:
    • A vile villain whose machinations are either directly targeted against the Louds, something that stands in opposition of them, or something they just get caught up in.
    • A trip to an exotic location (or at the very least, something outside the usual sets).
    • Thrills, chills, spills, and action set pieces out the wazoo.
  • One of Lisa’s experiments leads to a global catastrophe that the Louds need to fix. Just an excuse for the tag line to be “1 Boy. 10 Girls. Now they have to save the world.”
  • On a family vacation, Lily gets taken either in a nefarious kidnapping scheme or through mistaken identity, like she’s a doppelgänger for a royal baby or celebrity actor. Either way, the Louds go on an adventure to get her back.
  • Or maybe....a story that has elements that wouldn't feel out of place in a Grand Theft Auto or The Fast and the Furious-esque story (albeit in a more Lighter and Softer way), complete with a Brock Lesnar Expy who is a Brutal Criminal and an older, tougher Evil Counterpart to Lincoln/Ace Savvy.
  • A rich Silicon Valley man partners up with Royal Woods (and the Louds) to have Royal Woods kick the habit of using fossil fuels and go on solar and wind power.
  • The movie's logo is shaped like a castle. Maybe Lincoln will meet a prince who looks exactly like him. The prince is an only child who wants to have siblings. Lincoln and the prince switch places so Lincoln can get away from his sisters and the prince can have siblings. Of course, things go awry.
    • All jossed. The movie's plot is about the Loud family discovering that they're descended from Scottish royalty.

Insert villain ideas for the movie here.

The Big Bad of The Movie will go through an Evil Cannot Comprehend Good moment.
  • The rich Texan (mentioned above) and/or Lord Tetherby will not understand why Lincoln would turn down the former's offer to join even after telling them how the others treats him like crap. Or it can be the family that turns down the offer of their dreams coming true if it means not seeing Lincoln again, with the rich Texan and/or Lord Tetherby not understanding why the sisters would feel remorse or why Lincoln would forgive them. Bonus points would be given for the Big Bad if they believe they only want Lincoln as The Scapegoat, by offering them their own whipping boys.
  • The Evil Counterpart of the Loud family will face a minor example of "Selfishness Cannot Comprehend Familial Love" of how the kids and the parents would sacrifice their dreams and goals to save one another.
    • Alternatively, if Lincoln's Evil Counterpart from the above WMG goes through a Heel–Face Turn, the others will not understand why Lincoln's Counterpart side with the Louds since they are total strangers. Or the counterparts won't wonderstand why the Louds will side with Lincoln's Counterpart if the latter is not related to the former.
      • If not, maybe Lincoln's Older and Eviler counterpart would be a Brock Lesnar Expy who is a very Exaggerated Blood Knight (albeit Played for Laughs, though).
  • Jossed.

Alternatively, there could be a Good Cannot Comprehend Evil moment by few or even all of the Louds.
The Louds are shown that they are capable of loving and caring for one another, despite its ups and downs. That being said, if the Big Bad are Evil Counterpart towards the Louds, the Louds might assume the family of Lincoln's Counterpart loves them deep down or believing it might be a case of Tough Love. Only to be shown that the Counterpart's not only doesn't really love them at all but even disowns them on the spot. This might give Lincoln's Evil Counterpart a Heel–Face Turn while the Louds learn that just because they're family, doesn't mean they have to be forgiven.
  • Jossed.

Guest stars for the movie.
  • Stellan, Alexander and Bill Skarsgard
  • Mark Hamill
  • Bill Mumy
    • Possible, as he's the father of Leni's voice actress Liliana Mumy, and he guest starred in the season 3 premiere.
  • Josh Keaton, Drake Bell and Robbie Daymond
  • Tom Choi and Will Yun Lee
  • Matthew Yang King
  • Richard Epcar with Jamieson Price (after all, it would be closest thing we can have Lord Raiden and Heihachi Mishima in the show)
  • Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson
  • Henry Cavill
  • Peyton Manning
  • Hugh Jackman
  • Karen Strassman
  • Linsday Jones, Kara Erbele, Arryn Zech and Barbara Dunkleman, aka Ruby, Weiss, Black and Yang of RWBY fame. Imagine them voicing Expies of their RWBY counterparts in the show.
  • Nolan North. After all, who couldn't resist to see Wade aka Deadpool and Cristina aka Luan to be in the same show?
    • Alternatively, Will Friedle.
  • Jason Marsden.

It will be revealed in the movie that there is a long-lost 12th Loud child.
This new character is female, is Lincoln's twin, and is named Liberty (in keeping with both the "L" names and the American patriotism motif of Lincoln and a shout-out to the fan community who have created a similarly-named character). They were separated at birth by incompetent doctors who were sued by Rita and fired. Liberty is, personality-wise, a lot like Lincoln, and after her introduction, some episodes will have her talking to the audience. She will also be the only Loud sister who doesn't gang up on Lincoln, instead siding with him or distracting the other sisters when Lincoln has screwed up.
  • Jossed. Lincoln couldn't have been separated with a sister by incompetent doctors because the First Lady delivered him.

List of characters that could die in the movie.
  • The Villain: Maybe he/she can fall off a high place.
    • Jossed. No one dies.

The movie will be the finale.
Very possible.
  • Jossed. The series was renewed for a sixth season. In addition, the movie's director has confirmed that the movie is set in between the show's fourth and fifth season.

The movie's plot will be about Luan falling in love with a Swedish comedian about her age.
The Swedish boy will be played by Bill Skarsgard
  • She already has Benny.
  • Well, other characters (Lucy, Lincoln) have had multiple love interests before, so this is still kind of possible. Albeit Luan and Benny HAVE actually kissed, and have been on at least one date; they seem to be serious.
  • Jossed. The movie's plot is about the Loud family discovering that they're descended from Scottish royalty.

The movie will be about Lisa rethinking her life and running away from her family. (It will also reveal how she became super-intelligent)
  • Jossed. The movie's plot is about the Loud family discovering that they're descended from Scottish royalty.

David Tennant is the film’s villain.
He’s listed in the cast on IMDB, and given that the plot involves the Louds learning they’re descended from Scottish royalty, Tennant may play an antagonist who is out to stop the Louds so he can rule with villainous intentions.
  • Jossed. The villain of the movie is played by Michelle Gomez and is named Morag. She is the stewardess of the Louds' ancestral castle who is annoyed by the family’s rowdiness and wants quiet. Tennant's character, on the other hand, is a ally.

There will be a twist villain in the movie.
Why else would they not reveal who the villain is in any of the teasers?
  • Jossed. Later trailers & clips establish that Michelle Gomez's character, Morag, will be the villain.

Morag's punishment
  • Banished from Loch loud, arrested, who knows?

Morag will have a Villain Song
Morag will reveal in her song about her backstory, and on why she wanted peace including getting rid of the Loud Family.
  • Confirmed! Her Villain Song is called "The Duchess I Will Be".

    Post-release theories 

If there's an another Loud House Movie, then Lincoln's Next Opponent will be none other than...

If there's ever another massive multi-player crossover like Nicktoons Unite!, that's not Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, then Lincoln, Morag, and Loch Loud will be the Loud House representatives for Player Character, Villain, and Stage respectively.

  • Lincoln will have his yo-yo, flying backpack, and Ace Savvy Persona as an alternate form.
  • Morag will have another Dragon Stone, likely thanks to Crocker, and her fight will be about hitting her while she's on her dragon and firing at players. Her boss theme will be an instrumental of "The Duchess I Must Be", and reason for joining the revived Evil Syndicate will be that she wants to rid the multiverse of the Loud Family - Lincoln especially, since they seem to be pretty intentionally dichotomic when you think about it - so peace and quiet can reign across all reality.
  • Loch Loud, pretty self explanatory really. Imagine Crockerized Dimmsdale and Ghost infested Amity Park, but with dragons instead.

The Loud ancestors died out at sea
They all appear to be the same age as their respective modern counterparts, so they never got to live out full lives. Given that the last time we see them alive is when they tried to sail home on a ship, it's likely that they languished onboard, were victims of a shipwreck, or worse: Aggie commanded their dragon to annihilate them to truly ensure that they never come back. At least they came back as spirits.
  • That just begs the question on HOW they got a family going in Royal Woods. Unless the Duke had a fling with a girl, who then got pregnant with his kid and kept the Loud name, this is strong but confusing at best. You know, because everyone else is a girl (in the case of his sisters) or married (in the case of his father). Unless said father got permission from his wife to have another consort or something, got her pregnant, and SHE continued the Loud name.

Alternatively, the Loud ancestors lived to a ripe old age, albeit in obscurity.
They simply appeared to their descendants in the same age as their respective modern counterparts as a form they are comfortable with.

Potential names for the Louds' 1600s ancestors.
  • Lori's lookalike: Lorraine
  • Leni's lookalike: Lenille, or Magdalena
  • Luna's lookalike: Lunake
  • Luan's lookalike: Luanelle, or Louise
  • Lynn's lookalike: Lynne
  • Lincoln's lookalike: Duke Lionel
  • Lucy's lookalike: Lucille (only certain one)
  • Lana's lookalike: Lanalle
  • Lola's lookalike: Lolatte
  • Lisa's lookalike: Lisarne, or Lisabeth
  • Lily's lookalike: Lilite, or Lillian
  • Rita's lookalike: Robina

The whole movie was All Just a Dream
Let's be honest, the entire dragons and ghosts thing is impossible in reality. Lincoln may have simply dreamed the whole thing, like it was done with "One of the Boys" and "The Butterfly Effect".
  • Ghosts have appeared in the shownote , and the extent of Lisa's Child Prodigy-ness is already something that's improbable in reality.
  • Magic has also been used in the show, so what's here in the movie isn't far fetched for the show at all. Plus the movie was explicitly stated to be canon by the show director and take place in the summer between Seasons 4 and 5, so jossed.

Kat, Lincoln's schoolmate had an ancestor that lived in Loch Loud 400 years ago, but also a family member that moved to America.
I base this on nothing but the fact that they use her character model for a constantly recurring side character in the movie.

White isn't the Duke's natural hair color.
According to Chris Savino, white isn't Lincoln's natural hair color. This, however, contradicts the various flashbacks and photographs of Lincoln's younger days, which show him having white hair. Though it could be true for the ancestral Duke, instead.
  • Probable, but unlikely, given that Lincoln called the guy out for having white hair and Angus didn't correct him on that in any way. So it's likely that he did have white hair, and it really is genetic.

Lori's ancestral counterpart's Verbal Tic is "actually", "legitimately", or "seriously".
After all, they don't have to act exactly the same as their present day counterparts, and so will likely have quite a few differences.

Morag had a Dark and Troubled Past
While most other past is unknown, besides being an ancestor to Aggie, Morag’s past was likely when she got abused by her parents, bullied by her siblings, and even laughed at by children in school.

Lolo is Lela's father or grandfather.
Because they're the only two dragons seen and Lolo was the ancestors' dragon, while Lela was temporarily the Louds' dragon.
  • Lela's egg was explicitly stated to be Lolo's. Who is also called a girl by Luna's ancestral double. So, confirmed, but gender inverted; Lolo is Lela's mother.

Lori's ancestral counterpart used an Instant Messenger Pigeon.
They had no telephones in the 1600's, so 1600's!Lori might have sent messages to a hypothetical 1600's!Bobby using a carrier pigeon.

The 1600s Loud Family are the direct ancestors of the doppelgangers from Fool Me Twice.
Lucille refers to Lucy as cousin and not niece or several times great granddaughter, implying that the current Louds are directly descended from the Duke's cousins. Given that the actors Rita and Lynn Sr. hired were dead-ringers for the Loud sisters it's likely that they were the several times great grandkids or nieces/nephews of the 1600s Louds. In addition 400 years is a long time for a family tree so there's also a nonzero chance that the old man hired to stand in for Lincoln could also be related.
  • Taking the last point further they could also be related to the people Lincoln thought were his real families during the portion of Not A Loud when he thought he was adopted.
  • NM: Except the Louds are EXPLICITLY stated to be FROM Scotland, and that Lynn Sr outright DID NOT KNOW where his family was from; unlike Rita. It makes no sense for the 1600 Louds to have had American relatives, when that would directly contradict both of these points and make their confirmed immigration to America pointless. If this were the case, Lynn Sr would have said, "My family's from here too, but I think we had relatives in Scotland."
    • Well once the cousins caught wind of the dragon banishing the Duke’s family perhaps they set off to search for them and got stranded in North America as well and given communication at the time they would probably be presumed dead if stranded for long enough. Shipwrecks are a thing you know.
      • NM: Then they're STILL from Scotland, and have even LESS reason to NOT know their origins than they did originally! Also, where did the Royal Family go? Why didn't the two families ever meet up again if they both ended up in America? Communication issues or not, two clans so similar to each other WOULD spread quickly and attract the Royal Family's attention. Why didn't the Cousins go back to Scotland and tell the people after corroboration of how and why the banishment happened; effectively killing the story and series' events? Especially since I imagine the Royal Louds still had their ship. The whole "they appeared young as ghost" thing doesn't apply here, because the director outright confirmed that the Royal Family settled in what would become Royal Woods, and only appeared as such due to those forms being their most remembered appearances. You basically need to surgically attach a pretzel to the plot JUST to make this work! Yeah, WMG, all for fun. But still!
      • Again, 400 years is a long time. Also "they appeared young as ghost" doesn't apply here because them living to old age in the new world doesn't preclude extended family coming to look for them. Also it would have made more sense for the 17th century Louds to have settled in Appalachia because thats where the Scottish settled during the IRL colonial period and Michigan wasn't settled by Non-French Europeans until the 18th century.
      • NM: What "makes more realistic sense" is irrelevant. The world and story say that they went to and settled in America. So, they went to and settled in America. The existence of an extended family not born of the 1600 Louds themselves completely erradicates and wreaks havoc on the story and plot, and only serves to make things more complicated than they need to be. Even the hypothetical existence of this family would only work under the "realistic" lense you just tried to put the movie and its mythos under. They went out to look for them, never even trying to take the throne, searched the Appalachia and died at sea. And again, that's only speaking hypothetically.
      • No, your counterpoint is irrelevant, extended family still makes them Louds so that doesn’t undermine anything and multiple people can be descended from the same person and yet be distantly related enough from each other to be strangers. Also I never claimed the extended Louds died at sea, I just said that the could have shipwrecked on the coast of say Cape Cod and given how slow communications we’re back then anyone waiting for them in Scotland would eventually presume them dead even though they’re alive and well on another continent. Lastly there’s more to America than just Michigan, it’s a big place, the show never claimed Royal Woods to be 350-400 years old and it’s entirely possible subsequent generations of the Loch Louds and Extended Louds to have made their way west over time.
      • NM: I never said you did. If you ACTUALLY read my previous point then you would have seen that I was giving you a hypothetical example of how your attempt to include an extended family to the 1600 Louds would play out with the ridiculous "realistic" lense you tried to put the plot and mythos under. Speaking of which, YOU were the one to bring realism into this, so my prior counterpoint IS relevant. Also, you ARE aware that the director confirmed that the 1600 Louds did settle in Royal Woods when it was once called Woods and before it was renamed Royal Woods, right? Link.
    • NM: As for why Lucille referred to them as cousins in their scenes, and not descendant or similar terms. I imagine it was either more of a save time/convenience thing due to the situation with Morag, or a less cumbersome or clunky way to refer to them as family. (I imagine saying descendant or other such terms like 19th/20th Great Grandson/daughter/nephew/niece would get pretty tiring or counterintuitive after a while.)
      • Doesn’t take long to say niece/nephew either… Also the 19th/20th Great Grandson/daughter could have worked as a one off gag. A similar gag was done in that Jimmy Neutron episode where they went to Egypt and found out that Libby was descended from a Pharoh.
      • NM: A gag in a serious scene crucial to the plot? I get what you're saying, and maybe done earlier would make sense, but still. Also, niece and nephew are gender specific terms, so using either would only be referring to either 11 or 2 people respectively. Unlike cousins or descendants, which are gender neutral and all encompassing. The former of which is only easier to use due to the shortness of it, and situation at hand. Whereas the latter is more of a mouthful to say repeatedly in quick succession, and more liable to waste precious seconds - however few that may be.
      • This gender thing is reading in too deep.
      • NM: Maybe, but it still stands and makes sense.

The Louds are like the Cahills from The 39 Clues: a large family that expanded into multiple branches.

NM: The Present Louds are all directly descended from The Duke, hence bearing the family name (I know it's possible for husbands to take their wives names, but still) with the possible addition of the White Haired Family from Not A Loud via one of his later X# Great Grandchildren. While other families or characters, like the doppelgangers for example, are descended from The Duke's Sisters.

  • Lucille referred to Lucy as cousin not niece, which would have been the term used if her and the others were directly descended from the Duke.
    • NM: Family call one another whatever they want. If I recall right, don't some places use cousin as a term for close people? Even if Scotland isn't one of those places, the Louds have never been conventional by any means.

     Sequel theories 

There will be a possible potential second movie.
While it wasn't confirmed if they be any sequels, like SpongeBob, they might be some plots that might happen in both sequels if the get announced.

The second film might focus on the Loud Sisters, where they try to save Lincoln after he gets kidnapped by a criminal.

There will be a possible potential third movie.
While it wasn't confirmed if they be any sequels, like SpongeBob, they might be some plots that might happen in both sequels if the get announced.

The third film might focus on Lincoln, as a teenager who is in High School, that will get kidnapped by a supervillain.

There will be a fourth film, if the series manages to outlive SpongeBob.

This one will involve a continuity reboot in which the Louds form a freelance crime-fighting group to fight Morag and other meances. Also, it will get a spin-off reusing the concept, with a Recycled Title.

Since the first movie focused mostly on Lincoln's personal issues, the next movie will focus on his relastionship with one of his sisters.
  • My money's on Lynn, as he probably has the most difficult relationship with her. The movie will focus on how hard it is for Lincoln to put up with her obnoxious Jerk Jock behavior and aggressive roughhousing, leading to him telling her off and, in a moment of anger, declares that his life would be better off without her. This would lead to a fight between the two and the rest of the movie would be Lincoln and Lynn's slow recovery from it and in the end, they forgive each other and reaffirm their bond.
  • What about Lori? Well she’s not safe from any sibling conflict with Lincoln either. The movie could also focus on how Lincoln is fed up with Lori’s aggressive and bossy behavior towards him. With the latter telling Lincoln that she wished she never had a brother. As the two continue their conflict with each other, the movie will end with them reconciling and accepting each other’s differences.
  • Lola? Also very likely. To say that Lincoln and Lola get into a lot of conflict would be an understatement. So it won't be too surprising for this movie to have Lincoln and Lola at each others' throats, only for the two to reconcile with each other in the end.

The sequel will actually be rated by the Motion Picture Association and use the current Motion Picture Association logo instead of the old one.
  • The film's credits featured the old MPA logo (complete with its production code number missing), likely since it didn't get a rating by the MPA. So the sequel can possibly fix this issue.
