Space Marines suck, it's a casting nightmare, dont do em, youre gonna regret it
Mahreens in a live action show would work best as this inscrutable force of nature happening in the background. Show how goddamn terrifying they are, sure, but don't make the show about them.

MaximillianDood has called it Cameron's "Princess Mononoke" and that is almost enough to make me interested.

It's tough, any time an army shows up everyone (including the armies) is just fucked beyond belief!
And all xenos interactions are gonna be about armies?

I can see why a lot of scifi choose paramilitary investigstors or agents or ambassadors to be an external lens to their worlds

40k suffers from being such a vast setting with such different subsettings, in which horrific war-torn hellholes occupied exclusively by elite troops and aliens take up an enormously disproportionate amount of attention (because that's exciting but also that's what the table top game focuses on)
I was playing Darktide with buds and one friend was like "so are all the worlds in 40k like this? Just miserable industrial nightmares full of secret chaos cults boiling underneath?"
And like, no, they're not! But those worlds are very developed in the fiction, and the distant pastoral worlds that barely remember the Emperor and have no contact with aliens (until suddenly a Tyranid armada shows up and devours them) don't get much mention

It’s baffling to me Cameron keeps giving all his biggest roles in this franchise to the most boring, zero-charisma actors and putting all his AAA talent in the blue fursuits
"Eeuuuhh I don't know, Rick, that Inquisitor told us the Warp corrupts everything it touches, maybe you, maybe you, maybe you shouldn't just open a portal right into it"

Stephen Lang isn't boring. He's Langtastic.

Nerds have hope for a good live-action Warhammer 40K movie but I distinctly remember the internet poo-pooing the WarCraft movie before it was out. It's not consistent. Is it the Darktide game supplying all this good will?

Warcraft may have been the last of the truly awful adaptations of gaming properties
of which nearly every one had been truly awful up to that point
i heard the Tom Holland Uncharted movie wasn't great but i haven't seen it

Pfft, it turned out okay. Mediocre. Destined to sit alongside Masters of the Universe or Willow in cinematic Fantasy.
The point is people are hyped for Warhammer 40K brought to you by the neck-snapping Superman. The hype is unearned. Maybe it's pity hype after DC did Cavill dirty.

It’s not, like, terrible? But it so little resembles the games it doesn’t really feel like there was any creative passion driving that project at any point.
I know it’s a prequel, but it’s so far in the past of those characters it’s practically just not them. And Mark Wahlberg is so terrifically wrong for Sully.
“We need a tall, barrel-chested, older guy type that can pull off a mustache. Someone with real dad energy. A David Harbour/Ron Perlman/Tom Selleck type. Who ya got?”
“How about a tiny racist asshole with no mustache?”
“I’d be real angry about that if I gave a shit,”

No. No it did not. Those were entertaining. Warcraft was thoroughly boring.

I dont even know how you explain 40K to anyone outside a gaming community. What is gonna run through minds seeing this Amazon ad at the superbowl?
Yeah so its a tabletop game originally
Ah okay like uh Monopoly
Well...no...like wargaming
Oh like LARP?
OK well anyway so its in the future and theres all these aliens
Like Star Trek?
Well,
just have everyone pretend it's a Starship Troopers sequel

Do a The Thing/Alien remake with Genestealers in a Hive City.
Instead of the heroes getting away at the end, it's Exterminatus time, and a nice eulogy from someone on the battle barge about how The Emperor Protects as billions die beneath them.

The last video game thing Cavill was in was The Witcher and that was v good

excuse me
Mortal Kombat was a classic
i'm not sure you understand that "nearly every one" means there could have been some that weren't awful
No further questions at this time

Wow, China should get better movie film opinions.
but they're listening to every word I say
just like starship troopers everyone misunderstands the source material and thinks the empire is great
now i expect it might be okay at the very least
because these things are no longer made solely to market merchandise and are now made with some degree of effort toward quality
Ergo,
