Announcing ULTRAMARINES - A Warhammer 40k movie

[rocketshipstud2]

7th legion imperial fists! / @ milwaukee

[louisgworld]

lol so many ginger people O_o

[Raptoid300]

Really, the story reminds me of the Ultramarines book (Graham McNeil), and Space Wolf (William King), new recruits getting their taste of action with old veterans doing something significant rescuing some shrine or person etc, they have the synopsis on the Ultramarine's movie website.

[kravcio]

bound to be awesome

[baubletop33]

STEELERS JERSEY!!!!!! YEAH PITTSBURGH!!!

[1llGhostll1]

beautiful trailer! it was better than decent. AND even if somehow the graphics became worse, they have DAN ABNETT help writing the story, and a bunch of others deeply involved in the 40k universe. They would have to try really hard to make this a movie I WOULDN'T see twice. :P

[MrPinkreaper]

Did a midget hold the camera? Ironic, that is the viewpoint some of the shots from the trailer should have; make marines look huge!

Fun films. Hopefully that'll enjoy what's coming up.

[Necronlord101]

They have the first official trailer for the movie on the official website. Doesnt look too bad.

[Adventchild8]

When was games day this year?

[Eimuxxx]

I'm Emperium forever

[Dragonslayer6001]

THE BATTLE OF MACRAGGE (dunno how to spell)!

[blargman5559]

@outiaw05 If I made a 40k movie, it would be about THE ANGRY MARINES! ALWAYS ANGRY ALL THE TIME!

[Unearnedendd]

Imperium scum...Death to the false emperor...

[Thebloodredsandman]

Will it be live action, or CGI?

[Majora48]

@Thebloodredsandman CGI

[Devon1991100]

@Thebloodredsandman CGI

[TENGproductions]

I WAS AT GAMESDAY 2009!!!

[KROUNES]

YEEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[triggerhappynumskull]

nerds unite guys this is our moment!!!!! XD

[arktheball]

@triggerhappynumskull *grasps hand, hoists said hand into air* " FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!!!!

[csicska2]

they will screw it. look at Prince of Persia or the most of films, made by games. there arent too much good films. awesome to make a film of w40k but dont hope too much. i hope there will be someone who will make w40k films well and not just the ultramarines

[APS1337TLY]

@csicska2 verty true usualy 99.9% of the time if a movie is made after a comic or a game or a book they fuck it up and make it look bad BUUUT if they pull it off it will be the best movie ever released in the history of movies!!!!!!!!!! everyone cross your fingers and hope the director knows what hes doing

[SkeletonSarge]

@APS1337TLY same with Halo look at the live action commercials it has huge potential to be a REALLY AWESOME movie if the directer don't change and modify stuff

[Majora48]

@APS1337TLY he dose

[foughtwolf]

@csicska2

Normally I would agree, but its being written by Dan Abnett, he has done A LOT of work for 40K before.

[Majora48]

@csicska2 dude this is more than just a video game like the crapy story of prince of pursia these are books table top games and video games ive look into this alot and i see nothing but an epic tale made for fans of the table top or books or video games

[Satyr910]

The movie has to be violent! i mean really violent!

[MultiNightbringer]

so when is it realised

[reapergrim4924]

They should have made Gaunt's ghost movie.

[BooshStudios]

@reapergrim4924 HELL YA DUDE!!



[DEATHSPACE2]

they put in romance in this movie im going to impale someone on a fucking spike.

[Majora48]

@DEATHSPACE2 lol they wont trust me

[AeonZelot]

1:The chick in red was perrty hot and what the heck...I'm looking forward to this as should all WH fans."FOR THE EMPEROR!!!!!" We will most likely hear that phrase more then anything.and seeing as its Ultra marins i'm guessing were going to see some tyranids. ;o

[geeh17]

Should have been Guant's Ghosts the movie

[doomjelly003]

Well that's 2 bits of good news...

1-Dude...a Warhammer 40k movie.

2-OMG female nerds exist! WE'RE SAVED!

[Gunshotinyahead]

no not ULTRAMARINES!!?? ELDAR?! anyone??

[kop4321]

They shoulda done Imperial guard they are more movie materiel IMO

[kingkong381]

@JKSeekerOfTheWind Space Marines of course! SMs are 8ft tall geneticaly engineered super humans in thick almost impenatatable armour and their weapons fire fist sized bolts that explode inside the target. Of course SMs don't exist :(. But if they did no modern army could stand against them. Plus the US Marines they've done nothing worth bothering about since 1945

[techmarine92]

CHAOS FTW!!!

[Moonkinkku]

Nerd power!

[stimar4]

i so hope it coms a 3D movie :D!!!

[johno428]

cool a movie go the ultramarines

[johno428]

OMG a movie shit that is AWSOME yes go the ultramarines

[dmspar70]

Pity its gonna be animated, was expecting proper live action. Bleh.

[khorne131313]

@dmspar70 if it wasn't animated then the awesomeness of wh40k would be lost with just special effects or people who are already in films and shows preventing "oh look it him from ....." or "hey isn't that ........... from .........."

[Kiyamlol]

they showed the exclusive trailer today at london expo and....

it was a dissapointment XD it was amazing how many people got up and left

[macchappy]

Good thing they have Dan Abbnet writing the script. he's pretty good about source material.

[Vassick1]

For me its got to have the Inquisition in it as well and also the Grey Knights there is so much scope for these films with so much history what about the fall of the Eldar,the Horus Heresy ,Imagine if James Cameron got behind it and made it 3D ,What about a Trilogy the possibilities are endless

[Sunmage96]

@Vassick1 Ohhh im so sure this will be a trilogy like LOTR

i hope this movie will be like LOTR because even if its a bit forgotten,it is still the BEST

like epic stories and music

[Bigkevuk]

sweet jebus, i love collecting and painting 40k stuff, but its the weirdos in this film that puts me off from going into Gw stores. Hope film is good,hope its not a weak piece of pish.

[wilddfire28471]

this will be sick

[blacksaphon99]

at 0:29 that is one big ass Titian

[stealthyspider]

I am not a fan of the rules but i LOVE the 40k back story. It is awsome. I have watched 40K grow over the years. I stoped playing after the second addtion but have always love the story. So so happy they are at long last doing a film. For once good on you GW.

[Irishfreedom]

I trust Dan Abnett's skill in writing because I have most of the Horus Heresy, but I'm worried that the movie might not be big budget. Think of how disappointing it would be if you went to the cinema and the whole movie was just a load of stop motion with warhammer models D;

[sabertoothray]

ultrasmurfs are so overrated..

[igorukr88]

should be space wolves instead

[n1hmrd]

There is only warrrrrr!!!

[Gothardt0078]

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment...

[jakoblangley]

I just had a nerdgasm :D x2 there is only war.

[countpuchi]

They should make the Origins of UltraMarines!!

[kingkong381]

@countpuchi Then it would just be a movie set in the Horus Heresy and not much excitement to it. Simply Great Crusade reaches Macragge and find their Primarch Robute Guilliman (say: Rob-oo-tay Gill-ee-man) and he joins them. Nope not much possibility of epic battles in that particular story as it was fairly peaceful. Maybe a movie of Guillimans life? Nope stick to normal 40k.

[6Dark6Mark6]

i just had a nerdgasm :D

[Kusezat]

I would love to see a HORUS HERESY MOVIE!!! This would be really EPIC!

Larger than Lord of the Rings!

LUPERCAL!!!

[crazygeek777]

i want a ork movie ;C waaaaagh?

[Atrodad]

@ outiaw05

these nerds dont deserve to se the movie...they dont know what they are talking about when it comes to knowing what you wanna see.

what you wanna se is a dreadnought firing of his assault cannon in a bunch of geanstealers for 1,5 hours.

ps.

love you idea thoug ;)

sound like a epic movie.

got goosebumps just by reading your input.

[sihsboy]

Was at games day, Loved this news when it came out. Only thing i want to say to fans, is please buy a copy and give it as much support as we can, then they'll make more. Don't download it :-p

[Capng123]

If Ultramarines gets me some big screen Tyranids, I'm in.

Otherwise I dunno... Vanilla Marines? Big, Blue and Bland. Bleh.

[dashawnthl]

@texasallstar6969 ...so true lol

[Rhazagal]

If it's PG-13 (or equivalent), it won't be worth seeing since it won't capture the dark grittyness of the 40K universe depicted in the Codices and novels. Anything above that rating might be worth it.

[Gothicboots]

@Rhazagal well there having Dan Abnett screen write, so I'm gonna guess its gonna have all dat stuff

[9302420]

they should make one about the Imperial Guard!

[dorgrim]

Are brits too lazy to actually pronounce THEIR language properly?!?!

[kingkong381]

@dorgrim No you americans just don't speak REAL English. As far as I am concerned you speak a language that is DERIVED from true English. Plus only stuck up snobs go about pronouncing everything correctly. These guys are being relaxed and then there are the different accents and dialects. Eg what americans call a "british accent" is an English accent with a south dialect. There are also different countries within the UK= Scotland (me), England, Wales and...erm... bits of Ireland

[dorgrim]

too many....brits...speaking...mus­t listen...to...some Dirks Bently....aaaarrgh!!!!

[BobinatorLulz]

Wow....of all the chapters.....GAY!

[outiaw05]

If i made a warhammer 40k movie it would be about the guard fighting chaos in the trenches, running low on batteries, battling there fellow fallen zombie guardsmen and even the chaos within themselves until finally the chaos space marines make there appearance when it seems all hope is lost. and then fly in the good space marines with some EPIC music and only a handful of guard left it would be an unforgettable nail biting ending. but theres a ton u can do with warhammer 40k like nids, necs, ect

[cutiepe2ce]

@outiaw05 lol i think i start with with orkz,eldar and tyranids first..IG

[geeh17]

@outiaw05 That is the shit dreams are made of m8, When i read space marine novels i don't get the chills when they appear, but when i read guard novels and then when it seems all hope is lost and a chapter of space marines shows up and just unleash this awesome fury of death from nowhere and send chaos scum running back to their denzis.... that gives me the chills, im usually as awestruck as the imperial guard are when the drop ships hit the ground.

[baddarn94]

@outiaw05 thats so oldschool it should be about space marines fighting necrongs or tyranids thats killin !

[locketom]

@outiaw05 damnit way to ruin the ending :D naw jkjk that would be pretty epic

[cjholly91]

1:03 - 1:05 ... dignity fail...

Anyways!

As excited as I am about this movie... all I have to say is... Really?! Ultramarines?! What's so ULTRA about them anyways? NOTHING.

[wendighoul]

@cjholly91 Dignity fail indeed! Everyone knows bolters go Dakka-Dakka-Dakka :P

[TheFoilGuy]

@cjholly91 you heard of what they did in the hourus heresy?

[Stuart0000X]

@cjholly91 Nice sound affects for the bolter gun from that guy, can see why so many enemies of the Emperor shit themselves when they fight Space Marines.

[shawty390]

you would think that they would do somtin with dark eldar

[BobbyMan21]

is world eaters good?

[Assasin457]

@BobbyMan21 World eaters good? they were once apon a time but know they are all about the compleat decapitation of the imperium of man

[disgustedofcrookfur]

0:29 imperator titan

[TheLordPlague]

i hope they wont fail Ultramarine movie.Otherwise,Warhammer's legasy is doomed.

[JLORD300]

i hate the ultramarines chapter

[thewowzer12]

at looked at it and it said SM versus the tau......... i mean i dont really care much for the tau. I think they should have done the horus heresy, or classic SM versus orks.

[fell060]

i wanna see a WORLD EATERS movie, they are my fav

[Piotrasdabadman91]

SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE..... i mean.... ye, i like em too

[TheTankzor]

Thousand Sons = better we shoot lightning

[IconOfSin24148]

True

I would like Thousand Sons personally though

Hope they do a Horus Heresy series or something

[agarside1000]

ME TOO MAN, A GAME WOULD ALSO KICK ASS.

[kingkong381]

@agarside1000 There is a game its called Space Marine and is currently in development

[mohedd]

Ultramarines, BORING. GW has an obsession with that particular chapter since day one and it has gotten dull, try other marine chapters maybe.

[bradd691]

kaululan

[IMPERIALxFIST]

im just thinking of the chainsword :P

[TuttiHeit]

Why always the gay ultramarines and not a cooler chapter?I would love to see the raven guard for example!Or IG for the better,a Todeskoprs movie would be smokin!

And honestly i`m scared that the movie could be so fitted to mainstream that it loses it`s flair!It`s WH 40 K and i want my fucking violence,but if i want to sell a movie less violence leads to a lower age classification and equals in more money!:-/

[disgustedofcrookfur]

todeskoprs

[disgustedofcrookfur]

wtf

[tberwick1]

The feller at 0:11 looks like a hill billy

[HighLightAccount]

geeks

[zenniz1992]

Warhammer 40k movie is full of potential.

[dragonwars33]

armageddon 3 would make a better movie... i said it. it would be so awesome. yeh and maybe the horus heresy to

[FatAndHealthy]

Oh, everyone's the gonna watch it. The problem is though, will it be showed worldwide? Especially here in Asia.

[cybernako088]

warhammer 40k is cool and all. but if you really want to give people a run for their money, i suggest explaining the horus heresy. mostly beacuse it gives the games its respect and awsomeness. yes i said it. bite me. oh and by the why finally we have warhammer in a movie TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH.

[TuttiHeit]

Just my opinion,the heresy is epic and would allow GW a series of movies with a great story!

[Cradlefan100]

This is fuckin fantastic news i paint space wolves but still a ultramarines movie dude I cant wait I hope its going to be very blood and gore infested but will be very interesting if it gose up for a bafter and if it wins even better

[Evrenovic]

haha, if you click at the link to the official site. You can see that it's going to be an animated film. They have actors lending their "Voices" and "facial expression". THIS SUCKS! We need a REAL movie, not an animated one!!! We can play the 40K games on platforms and PC to see animation. WE WANT A REAL MOVIE!!!!!!!

[AvoidingtheQuestion]

does it really matter what faction they are? In the end we're still gonna watch a movie about space marines fucking some aliens up.

[AvoidingtheQuestion]

if you really think about it the only other chapter they could of done (without a shit ton of back story) is the Blood Ravens. The Ultramarines are the perfect choice because they are the GW posterboys of 40k.

[SotonBen06]

HORUS HERESY MOVIE WOULD BE BETTER

[xXDeathItShallBeXx]

1:03 BEW BEW BOO BOO BEW BOO!!!

[coreslite0397]

i think it would have been better if they made it about space wolves or black templars or dark angels but no they make an ultramarines movie every one i know who collects warhammer 40k gets ultramarines

[tr4d3m4rk44]

Lol, I hate how they use Ultramarines for so many things.

[Caithness19]

Wolves are the next visible. The smurfs are the most. Besides, Black Templars would be better as "The Hardcor rival" than the protagonist's group. Of course, the rest of the world may fail to understand that no one is out-and-out good in this setting...

[Thor22289]

I hope the makers know that this people aren't some Star Wars fanboys who get excited by some flashing, sexy aliens and stupid "battles" with robots with no aim.

This people came frome the dark grim future, and they know only war.

So, make a good movie, or else...

[Stilllil]

GEEKS! :D on the other hand I think i CRAVE that movie as much as they do.

[DrunkenKangeroo]

if they do it properly it will be amazing, if they cut short on ANY aspect, it will crush and burn.

[279joseph]

they should make a movie for each main chapter like blood angels, dark angels, raven guard. E.C.T (blood angels should be next if they do that though :D)

[819Hazza]

I acctually was gunna make a warhammer 40k movie. :(

[metalomania91]

you can still make one ! the more the better brother!

[VitaminJ]

Do it phaggot! We need more 40k movies

[engared]

NERDS!

Looking forward to it but i doubt it will be up to the franchises full potential.

[fullfist]

I would like it to be CG animated.

If they fuck up this movie I'm gonna rip their heart out and show them how black and cold it is before they die.

[COMMANDERDUCK98]

wooahh look at that emporer titan#

[Harkonn3n]

MOARRRRRRR!

[whiteassassin13]

:32 damn thats all i can say

[DRAGLORD11]

YES!!!!!!!!!! better be good :)

[ike60099]

when is this coming out?

[alleman13]

It should have been space wolves but oh well

[alleman13]

Can't wait but if they fuck this I'm going to eat their grand parents rote on front of them then I will kill every single person who shattered my dreams about this movie

[jackal9i8]

@alleman13 can you keep a little for me and the parents. im proper drooling at prospect of movie =)

[yttihp11]

Surprise surprise it's space marines again. I used to like space marines but there to over hype now and they get all these new releases like space wolves ect. when other races need a bit more lime light e.g dark eldar

[shadowfox1112]

especially ultramarines, for the love of god, i see them too much. They shoulda made this about CHAOS or something else. Hell I would have been happier if this was about the damn imperial fists instead. but i'll probably go see it anyway in hopes of seeing the other races.

[ZakkLamm]

White Scars! White Scars! Ultramarines and Blood Ravens get too much spotlight!

[Caithness19]

The Imperial Guard would have been another good option, but Chaos is box office disaster idea.

[mainkilla]

@shadowfox1112 I would prefer Black Templars.

[theemporour]

0:32 look to the right of the girls shoulder

thats a BIG warlord titan

[2tone459]

that aint a warlord titan...thats the most badass titan of all, the Emperor class Titan!!

[mortuus8]

0:51

is that a tatoo on his head? what is it?

[Kaugummimat]

looks like it. For his sake i hope it's just a stick-on tattoo ... or paint.... or something thats not permanant...

[TELeeable]

They better not mess this up.

[TELeeable]

They better not "mess" this up. I meant to say f'''''' this up like really...

[ThePancakes9999]

whenever I talk to my friends about 40K they say they have no idea what im talking about, but now they shall see!!!

[OIKspr0duct1ons]

i think i saw me, in the back ground ah that was a good day

[nemitis0]

If there's going to be another 40k movie it has to be about the Inquisition, something like the Ravenor novels. I love the way Ravenor shows the darker side of the Imperium and the common civilians are like. Something like that would be amazing. I'm so glad there's finally going to be a 40k movie.

[coreslite0397]

i think they should have make horus heresy movies

[joshmek]

i would like them animated. Im not sure if they could do a series of full blown movies as long as the heresy.

[whitetyger00]

they already made a few 40k movies... they were terrible. I hope they don't screw up again because I'd rather more people come into the hobby after seeing the bad-assness of the Ultra-Marines

[DiplomaticGoomba]

like what i wasnt aware a single 40k movie existed

[Fistofmail]

@whitetyger00 The thing is when they made those movie they sucked cause they didn't have the technology we have today. Also they mite go at it the same way as Avatar i believe

[TechUnadept]

LOL PEWPEWPEW!

[pwnsaurus]

Honestly, I'd much rather see an Inquisition thriller, maybe something based on one of Dan Abnett's novels, but hey, the smurf marines is a good start.

[Dreamspawn1978]

oh dear I recognise quite a few poeple there....

[bonepyre]

I heard the Ultramarines are going to be fighting the Na'vi.

[DeltaSquad451]

@bonepyre

Chuckle.

[Noremac2020]

It's actually pronounced "Nazis"

[wicNKWD37]

@bonepyre Blue vs blue. Hmm wheres red?

[DevilMousey]

i support the na'vi way of freedom, but if they are going against astartes, lets just say the odds are very much against them.

[fireprism2]

Never got around to actually gaming with miniatures but I love the whole sci-fi background of 40k. The novels are cracking reads. But, ffs why dont they just make a Horus Heresy series of movies? There's enough epic battles and betrayal there to make something that even non gamers could enjoy.

[DireAvanger]

they should make a movie about the book of brothers of snake or something like that i read the book and it was really good

[TechUnadept]

@DireAvanger I thought a movie adaptation of the Blood Angels novels would have been awesome.

[Shadovv117]

serious! :O better not be otherwise it would be ruined completely

[mvskokeeman]

A hot chic????? No way!!! They must have paid her!

[spartan11333]

is this going to be in the theaters?

[superstrok99]

@spartan11333

nope, its too awsome for hollywood

[2REED]

Dude i play as the Black Templars it would be so much better if tey made a movie about them

[HaunterV]

BT's are less Iconic... they were't even talked about until 3rd edition where as the Ultramarines have been there from the beginning.

[animefan222100]

it probably would but acording to the backstory, the ultramarines are the strongest of the chapters

[davemadfish]

@animefan222100 cough grey knights cough

[SentientGameStudios]

ultramarine are the best chapter of space marines and they are the biggest army

so im glad they are.

for ultrama!

[Ellis307]

haha that guy at 1:04 looks like a homosexual solid snake from metal gear solid hahahha

[samtronx]

agreed what a little faggot

[GRUBTUBDUB]

Kid on the left at 14:00 is me! :D

[maxxouboss]

Need a movie produced by James cameron , like Avatar :)

Enjoy the film :)

[rockstrips]

1:38 does that guy hace the imperail engle tatoo in his 4head.....EPIC FAIL!

[darthslain]

guy at 1:04 doesnt know his lasguns from his bloters..thats going to be messy

omg the big guy with a beard and wearing blue armo
