The movie was really quite boring and really corny. The few action sequences there are were alright and suitably gory but the marines themselves still aren't true to the lore.
[QUOTE=Angua;27009099]Well since it's out now, i decided to take a look at it, by no means have i finished watching it yet since i'm watching it right now, needless to say i have things to complain already, # 1 Why are their heads so large, usually when i think 'bout spece marines they're the stuff on the posters and so on may i picture an example , no really what happened did their armours shrink is that what it was? .[/QUOTE] I haven't seen the movie yet but that sounds like what happened with DoW. They had massive heads in DoW1, and they were pretty big in Firewarrior aswell.
The last few pages have dissuaded me from actually watching the movie, is it actually not that good, or do a few overbearing flaws just diminish the package as a whole? Because if it's the latter, I think I will watch it.
It is worth it to watch that movie, true it shows some corny and stupid things like they make almost no noise when walking (they should weight shit tons a lot) or sometimes computer animation (Now I'm talking about their faces) looks like it is straight from early 3d technology. But I'm waiting future 40k movies, I'd like to see more Imperial Guards/Navy warfare mixed up with space marines against orks, eldar, tau or chaos.
Worth a rent if it ever becomes widely available. Sub-par animation and graphics, as should be expected from a low-ish budget film, but otherwise quite faithful to 40k, barring technical limitations (sound effects not representing the true weight of space marines, and the poor animations making the marines and their weapons seem weightless being the brunt of my criticisms). Not something you should expect to excite you or even entertain you, but a good start for 40k movies, as has been previously mentioned. Also epic plot twist (the chaplain), I laughed at it when it happened. Oh and the soundtrack is often too quiet to even notice. It should have been more metal than orchestral in my opinion, especially during the chaos attack, when one of the csm screams his war cry, it was a perfect cue for an epic explosion of metal, but I was quite disappointed when only a slightly audible choir was heard
Metal music doesn't seem like it would be in its place in the 40k universe. Despite how well it could fit there. Anyway, I'm sure I'll see this movie someday.
Just watched this movie today. It was a lot better than expected. Animation obviously wasn't going to be Pixar standard, although to be honest the actual animation was good and for the most part the movie looked good, except for the faces of people. They seem undetailed and untextured. Voice acting was awesome. The gun sounds seemed to be a bit lacking. They were good but when the heavy bolters was firing, it sounded like it was only firing periodically. I quite liked the music. And yeah the story was awesome. I really liked this, I hope they make another one.
Ha, faces weren't good? I guess they relied too much on their face animation program thing they had, then.
I saw it the other night, and my god was it terrible.
