The more I think about it, I wonder who the Marines will be fighting in this movie, and what people's reactions would be to the different races...
Orks - OMG They ripped off LoTR!
Eldar - OMG They ripped off LoTR with elves in space!
Necron - OMG They ripped off Terminator!
Tyrannid - OMG They ripped off Alien!
Dark Eldar - OMG They ripped off some b-grade horror movie that noone cares about!
Or if they featured Imperial Guard... "OMG They ripped off Saving Private Ryan!"
[QUOTE=LordLoss;19498360]Late this year I guess?[/QUOTE]
AFAIK they haven't even started making it yet, so it's probably not going to come out before 2012.

Anyone that complains has never been introduced to the genre of Sci-fi. Creating new interesting races is a total bitch.

Nevermind. Saving private Ryan was after warhammer, Everything else before.
I would personally say Warhammer is more of a rip off than DnD than anything else. Since Warhammer 40,00 is based on Warhammer.

Yeah, but what do you think most people will associate it with, first ?

Dungeons and Dragons.
Well, Everything but Dark Elder, They'll associate it with BSDM.

The whole point of that post is that there's definately going to be a big-ol' shitstorm similar to that, just like how when Dawn of War was released you had all the retards screaming "OMG THEY RIPPED OFF STARCRAFT! D:".
A movie about a Slannesh chaos legion would be awesome. I want to see the noise marines in action!

Hearing that made me want to bitch slap them really hard, especially since Starcraft was originally going to be a Warhammer 40k game, but apparently Games Workshop backed out, so Blizzard finished off the game differently.
Regardless, Warhammer was around first.

Am I the only one who thinks Starcraft 2 looks absolutely terrible?

I hate the cartoony look they gave it, what the fuck is up with all these cartoony looks in Blizzard games? Fucking WoW.
Other than that it looks like the first one I guess, more of the same (good stuff, but still more of the same). Oh and they want you to pay 150€ for the game, let's not forget that.

And then the other side ragequits since you are using Noise Marines.

Look in the right-most column of the invading army during the Siege of Minas'Tirith, you can see some.
It's pretty obvious this is going to be Tyranids or Chaos, groups that are clearly evil.

Dark Eldar, actually meh they are space pirates.
So yea, Tyannids or Chaos are the best bet.
Hopefully it is not chaos marines that they fight, but rogue legions.

I honestly hope they have to do a mission on a world where the IG and Orks are fighting, that way we can quiet the people who want people wielding flashlights and styrofoam armor fighting green creatures wielding More Dakka.
I personally believe nothing is more representative of the Imperium of Man then a Commissar.

tyranids aren't evil
they're just like an animal going off of instinct
IMO they're hungry

And what do you see most of in an Ork army? ORKS. You see this enormous wave of green-skinned space barbarians and tell the audience "Hey, those are Orks" you're going to get alot of "That's dumb Orcs are from LoTR :downs:".

There are huge differences between Green Orcs and Grey (Tolkien) Orcs.

Still, Tolkein pretty much invented Orcs in the first place.

Did Orcs even [I]exist[/I] before Tolkien? I know the Uruk-Hai were purely his invention.

Orks with power armor and massive guns driving land battleships are nowhere in LoTR.
Plus it's straight to DVD so the only people watching will be 40k fans.
