my god cant anyone make a GOOD warhammer 40k movie. such a cool universe but all movie atempts have just been piss poor. ultramarines made me wanna cry. almost no fighting and when there was it was only for like 5 mins. need a movie that shows off a huge war. like a whole army of space marines or imperial guard vs an alien race. come on GW you can do it we know you can. maybe do a move set in the Horus Heresy NOW THAT I WOULD SEE.
@121617a It's a universe that is very difficult to pull off on-screen. Books can include hundreds of thousands of people in one screen without effort; movies aren't so lucky. Live action movies pay more for every extra they put on the set; animated movies are just plain difficult to do right with lots of characters and action (and they take forever). Ultramarines was a good attempt, but people expected too much from that movie.
@lingojac i see your point I know that it is hard but not impossible, i mean Lord of The rings proves it. I agree that ultramarines had some high of expectations but still, my opinion is that it could have been better. i mean my opinion is that they should have had less walking around, maybe used the cinema they used in the dawn of war pc game intro. Warhammer 40k is a great universe and i really feel that ultramaines could have done it more justice. It was the first try and now they can improve
Orks? Come on GW, we get that Space Marines and Orks fight but can we please have some other fighting? Like Tyranids smashing the hell out of some Tau. That I want to see!
This was not fan made. It was going to be a proper film by GW but it just didn't work out. For the time it was made, this was state of the art CGI so you can't compare it to the recent CG scenes from Dawn of War or Dawn of War II. It would/could have been great and I hope it will be bought to life again by the Ultramarine guys.
They haven't made any better quality G.W. / 40k inspired space battle scenes that i've seen since, either amateur-made or pro stuff. As for the rest, it wouldn't have been so bad for the time it was made; what was it, late 90's or something like that? try watching other CGI from that time, it ALL looked pretty crap by modern standards. Like I said though, someone really should make more 40k-based space battle vids of some sort, there's plenty of unexplored potential there.
@deathto5 that COLOUR (as it is spelt) is from the blood angels chapter , also known as the berserker chapter so named because of the blood-rage virus each and every member carries in their DNA (or gene-seed as the space marines call it) which means once they take serious damage the virus activates sending its host into a fit of rage and anger killing all things it comes into contact with . Most victims of the activated virus dont survive and the ones that do go totally insane.
@AnarchyInsanity completely wrong about the black rage virus it isnt activated by being wounded but from being in battle for pro longed periods of time or a blood angel seeing his battle brothers killed it also it boosts the space marines already enhanced perceptions such as strength,reflexes etc the ones that go insane and cant be controlled are put into the tower of the lost to live out the rest of their natural lives and the ones that can be controlled are put into the death company.
@NuclearFallout1i was wrong then but after much diliberation i also know that you to are wrong , the black rage is activated on the eve of battle , they get vision of their primarch (sanguinius) dying at the hands of his battle brother horus during the ending days of the horus heresey , these visions send the marines insane , these insane marines are inducted to the death company , and the ones that happen to survive the battle are executed by astorath the grim , who oversees death company .
Dunno when this trailer came out, but the intro movies and trailers for the Dawn of War series, nay, ANY Warhammer-related property that THQ made into a game make the ground and chapel scenes look positively dated.
It sucks that GW won't sell the movie rights to a known good film company such as New line cinema. I could see Peter Jackson directing this an if he did as good a job as LOTR then the movie would be fenominal.
The Space Marine movie GW released was ok. The marines died to easily from bolter fire and their voices needed to be alot deeper...they all sounded like worn out old men
i know what i mean't. And there is millions ofr necron tombworlds ALL over the universe, dormant, awake. I don't know but it will be impossible to ever truely wipe them out.
yeah but in each tomb world there is not many necrons compared to some other races like tyranids or orks. but still tyranids infinate. nothing outnumber tyranids.
Wrong, there is millions of necrons. Most people never understand the true ammount. Besides. If they wiped out entire armies billions of years ago, they can easily do it again.
Yeah, there should be less protection for IP in that anybody ought to be able to make a movie based on GW as long as they pay GW royalties - say 10% of revenues?! That seems fair to me - their IP is protected from copyright theft yet they lose exclusive creative control - the perfect recepie for a decent Warhammer 40,000 movie!! I wish Damnatus coulda come out though - fucking GW!! :-d
Seriously, with todays animation, anyone could make a visually Awesome Wh40k Epic, problem is, nobody does! Imagine Peter Jackson, or Quentin Tarantino: don't tell me the utterly hopeless, gore-filled battlefields and general madness of the future isn't right up their alley! Or M Night Shyamalan, the whole arcane mysteries angle, or... See my point? All it takes is someone actually making the movie!
Why aren't any movie makers jumping on the 'make a GW movie" bandwagon? GW rules the IP with unmovable force and want full control and ownership over anything published about it (just read there ip on GW main site and you'll know what i'm taking about). Todays movie writers and directors want to use there own ideas. This does not mix well, and so, the hollywoods in the world do not try.
They should get whats his name that produced Avatar. If that film does well then he should have the cash to fund a good WH40K epic. Maybe even buy out Exile films to make 'em cough up the rights..
they should get the peeps who did the FF7AC movie to do this and you know they'll keep faithful to the universe, GW has the funding but GW would want a film that is a dark and gritty as the universe is ment to be like in the novels etc BUT at the same time they'd be pissing off all the kids that buy their models and play the TT......they know they cant have it both ways, i think i movie would be a last resort for GW.........im hoping a see a Horus Heresy movie b4 im dead thou ...would be cool
Codex pictures did the Bionicle films, and they were pretty good and geared towards a younger audience. I have hope and some faith, but I won't be terribly disappointed if it fails. The way I look at it, 40k has really expanded since. The fanbase is way larger and they have gotten a lot more popular since then (DoW series).
but the issue is, and GW knows it is that the 40k universe is not a pretty place, if you read the novels its pretty dam dark and hopless....which is why i love it lol BUT......depending on who they gave a movie project too they'd have to keep it dark and gritty and gory and NOT aim it to the kids. Im glad they pulled the plug on this film, looks horrid but CGI back then was pretty piss pooor
Yeah, that's true. Read Emperor's Mercy? That's EXACTLY what you're talking about. First half; mainstream sci-fi. And then he gets thrown into...hell, AKA 40k. heheheh
Nah right now im reading threw the SOUL DRINKERS im just about the start Crimson Tears, lol kinda bad but im just reading other stuff till the 2 new HH books come out lol should be GREAT Thousand Sons fall.....there's is a tragic one thou...Magus was only trying to help.
yeh i saw that Nemesis in the coming soon section on black libary.....lol wish they would hurry up and get the site up again but yeh im not a fan of James, i got part the way into Deus Encarmine and....started reading Angels of Darkness insted.....i just did not find the way he wrote very...well....good, soooooooo im not sure how he'll make the Blood Angels in the HH novels
Might not be Blood Angels, though, look at Graham McNeill, he does Ultramarines, now he's doing Thousand Sons. Yeah, I mean, how long does it take to build a cooler website?
I think it's Ultramarines because, really, they don't have a lot of confusing history. Yay, they fought, they're cool, poster boys. Introductory course to 40k 101.
only started to read that/those books started with that female assassin from temple of assassins was being changed into a gene stealer well....being able to change into one anyway, the lab table the way it was described lol very grim...loved it. Think the movie should have been directed by the dude who did District-9 he knows how to do gritty and dark very well. and should be based on the Horus Heresy books. :) first 3 would be perfect opener even for noobs who know nothing of 40k....i think
lol she reads lots of Anne Rice which is good but......she has also become tainted by the twilight shit.....and she randomly asked about 40k so.......i gave her SALAMANDER to read.....HOPFULLY it'll do.
Depends, she might enjoy it. I'd put it at 75/25 chance. Twilight, huh? She needs to get off that shit...it's not because of that "hot actor", whatsisname, played in Harry Potter? Cause if it is, there's no one like that in 40k...thank the God-Emperor.
Personally, I loved Salamander. A bit hard to follow through the beginning, but hella good at the end. Left me screaming for more.
lol i know i know but she has pretty much finished Salamander now and she thought she would not like it and kinda hated it to start with but she really likes it lol.....the SEEDS have been planted brothers.....think i might give her somthing abit more simple to read like Heroes of the Space Marines or perhaps Tales of Heresy short tales so she gets a nice taste of the 40k/heresy period
Now your dating a Sister of Battle. Nice one my brother. Soon we will convert all these Twilight Heretics! Even if they don't like 40k, they must not read that shit!
Uh, why's everyone being such a bitch? It looks pretty good for a movie if it was really early in production/wasn't made by a big studio, if you think you can do better then go fucking do it or stop being such a bitch
One problem with GW's banhammer policy on other movies I see is that if the Ultramarines movie doesn't turn out well, we (the fans) are going to give them (censored).
Of course, if it's worse than this looks, then what can I say? They'd deserve every bit of it.
Something that 90% of 40k games and movie suffer from - they've copied the models but not understood them. Why have the marines doing a John Wayne walk for goodness sakes?
Too bad this movie only made it to the trailer stage and then died even though it looks like shit now but have no fear Game's Workshop is trying again with a CGI movie called Ultramarine's due sometime next year if it goes through hopefully
i agree the fire three heresy books are the best story ever n would make the best movies but ya know if thay did they would fuck it up or not do it justice
yea, guess it was all for the best. Still, I think that how gw keeps locking down on potential movies causes less directors or investors to be willing enough to attempt making a good movie.
In the end I agree - better have one solid 40k movie than an endless series of (censored)
anyone of the warhammer novels out there would be good to make a movie out of. personally..... space hulk would be good to make a movie.. anyone agree.
I think they should combine the first three horus heresy novels into one movie. like an actual movie with famous actors. the only downside would be that if it was popular, we'd get a bunch of douches trying to start playing the game
I know there are a lot of Warhammer players/fans who would like to see a warhammer movie but a sci-fi gore fest just isn't going to be a commercial success and no director would waste millions of dollars making what they think is a geeky tribute to tabletop game. I for one belive there is potential in the Warhammer universe as it is not only gloryfing war but things like religion and human rights are displayed as well. Give it up now guys although this trailer is the best I've seen. :)
That's true. I think they could do it, but they'd have to make it appeal to people who aren't fans already - maybe like the new Star Trek movie has done, and although Star Trek is considered geeky, the movie's been really successful.
Sci-fi gore fest? Do you understand how much story is behind Warhammer 40k, Dawn of War etc.? It's PERFECT for a movie. There hasn't ever been a movie made that is remotely similar to this.
It is possible but we all have the wrong thoughts when we hear warhammer 40K movie. We all think epic battle. They could make a movie for example about one or a few persons. For example, a stranded group of guard or space marines, an sort of thriller movie with an officer acting like an investigator and so finding chaos. I know I gave a few crappy examples but I just mean, it doesn't have to be epic battle. I think every fan would go as long as it is in the 40K spirit.
my god cant anyone make a GOOD warhammer 40k movie. such a cool universe but all movie atempts have just been piss poor. ultramarines made me wanna cry. almost no fighting and when there was it was only for like 5 mins. need a movie that shows off a huge war. like a whole army of space marines or imperial guard vs an alien race. come on GW you can do it we know you can. maybe do a move set in the Horus Heresy NOW THAT I WOULD SEE.

Nah right now im reading threw the SOUL DRINKERS im just about the start Crimson Tears, lol kinda bad but im just reading other stuff till the 2 new HH books come out lol should be GREAT Thousand Sons fall.....there's is a tragic one thou...Magus was only trying to help.
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Yeah, the new HH books will be killer.
Soul Drinkers, huh? Wait till you get to Hellforged. That's all I'm going to say.
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
im just about to read Crimson Tears. Untill the next 2 HH books come out THOUSAND SONS WOO
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Yup. Going to be good, A Thousand Sons and Prospero Burns.
There's Nemsis coming out next year from James Swallow...great author....title sounds....dark, at the very least. Can't wait.
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
yeh i saw that Nemesis in the coming soon section on black libary.....lol wish they would hurry up and get the site up again but yeh im not a fan of James, i got part the way into Deus Encarmine and....started reading Angels of Darkness insted.....i just did not find the way he wrote very...well....good, soooooooo im not sure how he'll make the Blood Angels in the HH novels
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Might not be Blood Angels, though, look at Graham McNeill, he does Ultramarines, now he's doing Thousand Sons. Yeah, I mean, how long does it take to build a cooler website?
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
lol true and yeh fuck knows how long it takes them, hooping this new movie will be good, even if it is the dam UltraMarines....
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Hehehehhe.
I think it's Ultramarines because, really, they don't have a lot of confusing history. Yay, they fought, they're cool, poster boys. Introductory course to 40k 101.
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
lol yeh they are on every dam box and yeh their daddy wrote the fucking book.....i mean codex so.....lol
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
I wonder what it would feel like to be in a stasis field....
Weird.
And only because I read the Inquisition War trilogy, and that was confusing.
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
only started to read that/those books started with that female assassin from temple of assassins was being changed into a gene stealer well....being able to change into one anyway, the lab table the way it was described lol very grim...loved it. Think the movie should have been directed by the dude who did District-9 he knows how to do gritty and dark very well. and should be based on the Horus Heresy books. :) first 3 would be perfect opener even for noobs who know nothing of 40k....i think
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
but have have to say i have not been reading them in any order but from DEAD SKY BLACK SUN i have enjoyed the UltraMarines books
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Yeah, that was pretty good. McNeill does a good job of all that managing a Chapter stuff.
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
lol got ym gf thinking of reading 40K.....just dont know what would be a good book to start her off with....want one that'll leave a good impression.
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Huh. Is she okay with blood, and is she a general sci-fi fan? If so, then Emperor's Mercy is the one.
DeltaSquad451 2 years ago
lol she reads lots of Anne Rice which is good but......she has also become tainted by the twilight shit.....and she randomly asked about 40k so.......i gave her SALAMANDER to read.....HOPFULLY it'll do.
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Salamander...now there was a good read.
For a 40k fan.
Depends, she might enjoy it. I'd put it at 75/25 chance. Twilight, huh? She needs to get off that shit...it's not because of that "hot actor", whatsisname, played in Harry Potter? Cause if it is, there's no one like that in 40k...thank the God-Emperor.
Personally, I loved Salamander. A bit hard to follow through the beginning, but hella good at the end. Left me screaming for more.

yoda2287 2 years ago
lol i know i know but she has pretty much finished Salamander now and she thought she would not like it and kinda hated it to start with but she really likes it lol.....the SEEDS have been planted brothers.....think i might give her somthing abit more simple to read like Heroes of the Space Marines or perhaps Tales of Heresy short tales so she gets a nice taste of the 40k/heresy period
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Now your dating a Sister of Battle. Nice one my brother. Soon we will convert all these Twilight Heretics! Even if they don't like 40k, they must not read that shit!
yoda2287 2 years ago 2
lol at least i dont have to clock work orange her and make her watch loads of 40k lol
brokenhalo2001 2 years ago
Start her off with one of the Space Marine Omnibus's Space Wolves are the Grey Knights.

Give her the Sisters of battle one. I Think its called Rising Sun or Something.

One problem with GW's banhammer policy on other movies I see is that if the Ultramarines movie doesn't turn out well, we (the fans) are going to give them (censored).
Of course, if it's worse than this looks, then what can I say? They'd deserve every bit of it.
Zirnitra012 2 years ago
I think that GW guys is simply perfectionists. They want best of the beast movie or no movie at all.
TonyHanin 2 years ago
Something that 90% of 40k games and movie suffer from - they've copied the models but not understood them. Why have the marines doing a John Wayne walk for goodness sakes?

Too bad this movie only made it to the trailer stage and then died even though it looks like shit now but have no fear Game's Workshop is trying again with a CGI movie called Ultramarine's due sometime next year if it goes through hopefully

I'm guessing this movie only made it to the trailer stage and then the producers abandoned it or gw didn't allow the full movie to be released
Even though it looks like junk it's still sad to see a 40k movie die T_T
LogEekumenAgination 2 years ago
imo it is a good thing it died would of been a insult to fans and a deathblow to 40k ever geting a good movie
Halo116897 2 years ago
yea, guess it was all for the best. Still, I think that how gw keeps locking down on potential movies causes less directors or investors to be willing enough to attempt making a good movie.
In the end I agree - better have one solid 40k movie than an endless series of (censored)

I think they should combine the first three horus heresy novels into one movie. like an actual movie with famous actors. the only downside would be that if it was popular, we'd get a bunch of douches trying to start playing the game

This comment has received too many negative votes show
This is just cut together from various WH40K FMVs, trailers, and whatnot.
As for 'a sci-fi gore fest just isn't going to be a commercial success', I refer you to Starship Troopers.
It doesn't have to have a deep story, or compelling characters. Just blow up a few planets and do some hi intensity combat scenes.
And you don't need a budget of 200 million, either.
Just whatever they do, no Uwe Boll, no Michael Bay. No Lucas, either, for that matter.

Michael Bay can take anything and run into the ground (example: Transformers 2...pretty much just pissed all over my fondest childhood memories)

I know there are a lot of Warhammer players/fans who would like to see a warhammer movie but a sci-fi gore fest just isn't going to be a commercial success and no director would waste millions of dollars making what they think is a geeky tribute to tabletop game. I for one belive there is potential in the Warhammer universe as it is not only gloryfing war but things like religion and human rights are displayed as well. Give it up now guys although this trailer is the best I've seen. :)
Soratris 2 years ago 3
That's true. I think they could do it, but they'd have to make it appeal to people who aren't fans already - maybe like the new Star Trek movie has done, and although Star Trek is considered geeky, the movie's been really successful.
cdplayerx50 2 years ago 3
Sci-fi gore fest? Do you understand how much story is behind Warhammer 40k, Dawn of War etc.? It's PERFECT for a movie. There hasn't ever been a movie made that is remotely similar to this.
TomZi11a 2 years ago 6
It is possible but we all have the wrong thoughts when we hear warhammer 40K movie. We all think epic battle. They could make a movie for example about one or a few persons. For example, a stranded group of guard or space marines, an sort of thriller movie with an officer acting like an investigator and so finding chaos. I know I gave a few crappy examples but I just mean, it doesn't have to be epic battle. I think every fan would go as long as it is in the 40K spirit.
