Maxyalle That's why good CGI movies like Wall-E have $180 million USD budgets (around 130m euros). By my estimate that would be around 2 hours of video footage which is the regular movie length.
aeterna789 But still I'd hope to see a big budget hurler pick on this universe. Unfortunately GW turned down all movie adaptation offers from hollywood. Come to think of it, I wouldn't want to see it to turn out like starship trooper 2-3
Maxyalle its sad that thq went under so the war hammer franchise is being whored out to developers who are making really shitty games from its namesake.
This movie had Dan Abnett on the point of its writing team. The Ultramarines aren't a problem. I just wish that scenes like this had replaced Black Legion Astartes with human/mutant cultists. It would've been more trouble to animate, I fully respect that, but it would've been vastly more impressive for a small squad of Ultramarines to be holding their ground against thousands of slavering hordes of the Ruinous Powers. It certainly could contain members of the Black Legion, but I remember the glory days of the Lost and Damned, where a 20 to 1 ratio of cultists to Space Marines was a high estimate for the Astarte composition of a random Chaos warband. Space Marines, loyalist or traitor, are cheapened when they're represented in bulk, but they're also rather cheapened when there's nobody but them around to gauge casualties.
Alexander Anderson That would be the true if I was looking at a gameboard with seven Space Marines against thousands of cultists, where six lasguns/autoguns is all you need to reliably land piercing shots on Terminator armor and the average human is exactly as physically strong as the average Ork.
There is a Daemon Prince here, and those Chaos Marines are meant to be a distraction; they might have not even existed, just been a warp illusion to serve it's purpose.
+briandavion The weapon he used was a Crozius Arcanum which has an energy field projector in it that can disrupt matter. It is technology, not a psychic ability.
Those are the most satisfying Bolter sounds I’ve ever heard. It sounds accurate to the lore, as these are weapons that roar with thundering fury each time the trigger is pulled and a bolt round flies from the muzzle at high velocity.
If you wish to see a superbly animated 40K film with excellent voice acting, a decent story line and space marines with character, watch Space Marine from THQ. It even allows you to participate in the action as a player.
Fun fact: Both this movie and the *Space Marine* game deal with basically the same plot: Get the Chaplain/*Inquisitor* and the Relic/*Power Source* off world in a rescue mission after sending both cases a distress call. In also both cases it turns out that one of them was a daemon who possessed his body after killing him
How? He’s not doubting that the Emperor indeed protects, and he simultaneously praised the holy bolter, the instrument of the Emperor’s wrath. No heresy there, just a quick wit.
Johan Dale They all managed by different people, it was done by manager at my local store for us not nationwide. Most have table workspace to build and paint miniatures, and the built tabletops out for playing games. And let you hang out with everyone and chill. Pretty cool place.

+Blue Um, they are fighting the Black Legion, not the Thousand Sons. Though you are correct they are not Khorne Berserkers, they are just Chaos Marines equipped with close combat weapons. Not Rubric Marines.
Jack Percival this battle was staged by the force of chaos so that one of the supposedly deacesed ultramarine could come back and save everyone. Once inside their ship, the traitor would have sprung a chaos invation.
Agreed. To be perfectly honest I think this movie's only saving grace was the fact that they got Dan Abnett to write the screenplay. The overarching plot wasn't much and that it focused on the Ultramarines (considering the hate leveled at them after the last codex) meant that it needed someone of Dan's caliber to make it work. What I wouldn't mind seeing is the Eisenhorn trilogy or the Ravenor books made into movies. And possibly Ciaphas Cain into a tv series.
Action a little better than I expected based on other 40K film attempts, but wow, contemporary presentations of them don't ever seem to capture the sound of their voices up to par. They should be deep, grating, extremely intimidating and cold, in the way they were originally heard in the 80's; I think that would give them more impact on screen (the main point being, they are often hundreds of years old with their vocal chords worn from centuries of use and postponed aging. coupled with vox amplifiers and other implants). Also, I don't think an Ultramarine would ever dare make a snarky back-talk remark towards the phrase, "praise the emperor." It wouldn't matter what part of the lore, what chapter, what organization or world a 40K film took place in, if they just got the actual characterization correct along with a better sense of atmosphere and cosmic horror.
@@Inoffensive_name Yeah, I have. Black Library ones. And, as far as I'm concerned, their power levels vary or whether or not they have plot significance.
What most of these comments mean is ''I realise my opinion doesn't matter but I don't like ______ aspect of the movie''. I appreciate the hard work put into making it and think it's awesome. BURN HERETIC
What I like about this movie was the scenery like the Battlebarge, the battlefield to the Imperial fists and the shrine. the design on the space marines armor was nice to look at, some of the voices actors was really nice to hear. And the action scenes in my opinion was not the worst parts in the movie.
Standard bolt shells are 0.75 cal, functions a bit like a miniature rocket There's a bit of propellant at the back, the rest if I remember the schematics right was about half explosive charge and the rest a very dense material + extra touch sharp tip stuff for penetrating properties. So that the shell can explode inside. The armour is pretty strong, but it's also designed to retain mobility. Bolters are some of the strongest handheld firearms available to adeptes astartes, hence these results.
If those Black Legionaries were cultists instead of actual traitor space marines, this scene would make so much more sense. Oh well, at least the bolter sounds were on point.
+RafaelC015 The Black Legion, iirc, is the largest chaos legion and since they worship Chaos Undivided it'd make sense they'd make use of Berserker units along with other things like Noise Marines
+RafaelC015 This actually makes sense now if they added the scene after this. Their captain (who is now dead and possessed by a daemon) probably ordered the black legion soldiers to charge at them and are basically bait for the daemon-possessed captain to appear like he is saving them (when all he's doing is gaining their trust so it can infiltrate the ship)
RazgrizOne Chaos Space Marines of the Black Legion that are veterans of thousands of battles would not sacrifice themselves for a daemon that they owe no allegiance to. They themselves are seeking to become daemons and gain unlimited power, that is a little hard when they are self sacrificed for another daemon. You are referring to the attitude of cultists, not Chaos Space Marines.
+RazgrizOne why would a daemon even need to try to gain their trust? They were a fresh squad of marines that have never had such an encounter, did you not see all those dead imperial fists, pretty sure they had even more experience than the smurfs? These guys would have realistically not stood any real chance if the had gone up against the Legion and a daemon.
Well, crunch-wise they even don't have to be AP2, because well, crucnh-wise every weapon has some chance to punch through any infantry-grade or battlesuit armour. That means that as of 7-the edition even the humble laspistol had a chance of punching through terminator armour and dropping it's user dead. Don't actually have the latter chance now, since terminators are 2 wounds now, however now a sufficiently massed lasgun or bolter barrage could wreck a battle tank or even a titan. That's for crunch-wise. Fluff-wise armour tend to have weak spots that could be exploited. Par example, Imperial Guard's issue lasguns likely won't penetrate Chaos Space Marines' power armour's rigid bits (that made of reinforced armoured ceramite), however, lasgun shots on full power have enough penetration power to punch clean through the aforementioned power armour's joints and other weak spots, with, for example, shot to the neck joint capable for dropping the traitor Astartes dead instantly (the lasgun's beam penetrating the armour on the neck joint and then burning a hole through CSM's throat and spinal column).
ah ultramarines the film what a shit! give us the horus heresy! the fight between ferrus and fulgrim! the atack of the imperial palace and the charge of the imperial fist! The last fight of Russ with the 13th and of course the fight between sanguinus and Horus! Give us the true Alpha legion who fight for the chaos eradication (read the book "legion" for more precision)
I love 40k and spehss mehreens but this movie was crap, the low production value just didn't hold up, the thing about 40k is that its grand and epic, you can't pull that off with high production value.
on the contrary, it costs a lot of money to animate something like a warhammer series and have it look halfway decent. that said,I'd love to have a tv show about the horus heresy.
Saw this when I first got into 40k and will always enjoy hearing John hurt screaming 'burn heretics' but as a shameless advertising of a youtube creator for those who may or may not know, a content creator Richard Boylan, has been making an animation of one of my favorite stories Helsreach, with some beautiful animation and voice acting, I highly recommend giving his work some views.
For epic awesomeness: Step 1: Mute this video Step 2: Open up a new TH-cam tab Step 3: Find LORDE - Everybody Wants To Rule The World Step 4: Play both videos at the same time and watch this video. Step 5: En-fucking-joy
I just watched the whole movie and it was fking amazing! Most people that hate probably only watched the trailer or went with the prevailing public opinion, because this movie is well worth the 4 $.... Long live the Emperor
I actually paid alot more for it, and enjoyed it. Got the steelcase and the comic book. The only thing that saddened me was that the blu-ray version became available after I had gotten the dvd version.
oOMasterDjoOo 19. Nearing 20. Why do you ask? This movie is an abomination even for direct to DVD movies are concerned, and a shame that the W40K license is even associated with it.
oOMasterDjoOo Why would I ever enjoy a movie of this quality? It wouldn't matter if it was star trek or star wars, it'd still be a miserable movie. I'd at least expect it to be on par with the Clone Wars 3D show, which swung between good and decent, but was of far greater quality. But still, that's a guilty indulgent of mine. If I wish to watch cinema and completely enjoy it, I bust out by Godfather collection or Looper. It is a shame though we're unlikely to get a W40K movie on par with say, Star Wars, even Attack of the Clones would be better than this. Hell the DOW movie intros had more detail than this, same with Space Marine. (Although that's if there is even actors alive who could play W40K characters, it might have to be CGI simply because Ron Perlman is the only actor I can think of who looks like one.)
Spehss Mahrens, todeh the enemeh is at oua doar! We know oua duteh and we will do eet. We fight for our honor as Utramahrens, as SPESS MAHRENS, and we fight in the nehme of the Empra!
My biggest problem is... Ultrasmurfs... FUCKING ULTRASMURFS... Like people say they are the most successful chapter ever?.. I BEg TO DIFFER, Those guys lost an Emperor class-battleship, got practically consumed by the tyranids during the first Tyranid War and a bunch of other shit they've done AT HUGE COST TO THE EMPIRE. Should've just fucking sent the Space-Wolves... Or ANY chapter that didn't resemble the "Throw everything at it untill it dies" policy that Guardsmen use.
GSXRMarshall Oh yeah, the best chapter to get sucked off by Ward. Seriously, they're the most vanilla chapter ever. What's their specialty, huh? Being there, that's about it. Seriously, the Dark Angels have so much of a better story.
Sam Mullen I agree with you, mostly Legions/chapters have better story than the Ultramarines and the "dark" story behind the Dark Angels is by far too diferent than the other Legions/chapters.
Like fluff wise, they are the coolest, game wise, that's all a matter of how you play. But here's the crappy part, if you were to make a movie, like released in theaters and stuff, who else would the main character(s) be. The Ultramarines are sorta the embodiment of a space marine without the extra need for fluff, which is why they were the chapter in the Space Marine shooter. Enough people could watch this movie without raging about the fluff needed to get it going. However, it could work if an obligatory back-story scene was made. I have often thought about which chapter would be best suited for wold-wide film distribution and unfortunately the list is quite limited, because most people will not be die-hard 40k fans, so it would have to go with the Ultramarines or some successor chapter with no fluff attached to them.
***** I understand that. But if I can listen to Justin Bieber music for a whole two hours, watch My Little Pony for another three hours and play Ride to Hell Retribution, then surely I can watch this.

Par example, Imperial Guard's issue lasguns likely won't penetrate Chaos Space Marines' power armour's rigid bits (that made of reinforced armoured ceramite), however, lasgun shots on full power have enough penetration power to punch clean through the aforementioned power armour's joints and other weak spots, with, for example, shot to the neck joint capable for dropping the traitor Astartes dead instantly (the lasgun's beam penetrating the armour on the neck joint and then burning a hole through CSM's throat and spinal column).
Me and the bois defending the Harem Lord be like:
Did Dan Abnett write this one in one afternoon with a hanger-over?
Hello guys, i'm a fan of Warhammer 40k but I just want to ask a question, for clarification. Is that an Angry Marine I see in that bunch?
ah ultramarines the film what a shit! give us the horus heresy! the fight between ferrus and fulgrim! the atack of the imperial palace and the charge of the imperial fist! The last fight of Russ with the 13th and of course the fight between sanguinus and Horus! Give us the true Alpha legion who fight for the chaos eradication (read the book "legion" for more precision)
4 years later and I still don’t understand what you wrote...
"having a loaded bolter, would hurt either." best phrase ever.
I love 40k and spehss mehreens but this movie was crap, the low production value just didn't hold up, the thing about 40k is that its grand and epic, you can't pull that off with high production value.
on the contrary, it costs a lot of money to animate something like a warhammer series and have it look halfway decent. that said,I'd love to have a tv show about the horus heresy.
@The Jester - Fool Of Hearts Damn straight.
Nearly every sci-fi franchises has influences from Starship troopers
from the power armor to the hive-mind like aliens.
I prefer the more robotic voices
where it's very deep sounding and badass
IM BATMAN exactly
2:03 Dual wielding bolters
TRUE CHAOS
Saw this when I first got into 40k and will always enjoy hearing John hurt screaming 'burn heretics' but as a shameless advertising of a youtube creator for those who may or may not know, a content creator Richard Boylan, has been making an animation of one of my favorite stories Helsreach, with some beautiful animation and voice acting, I highly recommend giving his work some views.
Most badass Chaplain ever. Awesome skull helm too.
I doubt what's beneath it looks much different.
For epic awesomeness:
Step 1: Mute this video
Step 2: Open up a new TH-cam tab
Step 3: Find LORDE - Everybody Wants To Rule The World
Step 4: Play both videos at the same time and watch this video.
Step 5: En-fucking-joy
Dear Expax,
Please find attached one (1) internet that you have won today. Congratulations and enjoy your victory.
Do I get to put a tiny piece of paper held by some red thingy on my battlesuit armor? C:
Expax It shall be presented to you after we have confirmed that your victory was not achieved by heretical means. -:-)
thats creepy how well it syncs....
“Have you not a weapon”
“Saving my ult, bro”
I just watched the whole movie and it was fking amazing! Most people that hate probably only watched the trailer or went with the prevailing public opinion, because this movie is well worth the 4 $.... Long live the Emperor
I actually paid alot more for it, and enjoyed it.
Got the steelcase and the comic book.
The only thing that saddened me was that the blu-ray
version became available after I had gotten the dvd version.
0:29 and it was at this moment they knew they would win
Ah. The movie so bad that it's not even worth pirating.
Wyatt how old are you ? Simple question.
oOMasterDjoOo
19. Nearing 20. Why do you ask? This movie is an abomination even for direct to DVD movies are concerned, and a shame that the W40K license is even associated with it.
Wyatt Wilmot
Lol You guys are never happy. I could kill for that kind of movie when i was your age.
oOMasterDjoOo
Why would I ever enjoy a movie of this quality? It wouldn't matter if it was star trek or star wars, it'd still be a miserable movie. I'd at least expect it to be on par with the Clone Wars 3D show, which swung between good and decent, but was of far greater quality. But still, that's a guilty indulgent of mine. If I wish to watch cinema and completely enjoy it, I bust out by Godfather collection or Looper.
It is a shame though we're unlikely to get a W40K movie on par with say, Star Wars, even Attack of the Clones would be better than this. Hell the DOW movie intros had more detail than this, same with Space Marine.
(Although that's if there is even actors alive who could play W40K characters, it might have to be CGI simply because Ron Perlman is the only actor I can think of who looks like one.)
oOMasterDjoOo Im 26 now and I can happily confirm, this movie was shite. It could of been so much better, yet it wasn't.
this was like an endless video game transitional sequence on a Sega Saturn...
Chaos lost lot of armour saves. Blame the dice gods.
Ive actually watched a battle report where either a space marine or chaos kept rolling 1's as his saves...
I was wondering who rigged the dice... -_-
The Smurfs had the heart of the cards.......
Spehss Mahrens, todeh the enemeh is at oua doar! We know oua duteh and we will do eet. We fight for our honor as Utramahrens, as SPESS MAHRENS, and we fight in the nehme of the Empra!
My biggest problem is... Ultrasmurfs... FUCKING ULTRASMURFS... Like people say they are the most successful chapter ever?.. I BEg TO DIFFER, Those guys lost an Emperor class-battleship, got practically consumed by the tyranids during the first Tyranid War and a bunch of other shit they've done AT HUGE COST TO THE EMPIRE.
Should've just fucking sent the Space-Wolves... Or ANY chapter that didn't resemble the "Throw everything at it untill it dies" policy that Guardsmen use.
They are the best chapter so stop crying like a little bitch.
And that's why the Emperor sent them to the Eye of Terror to get Magnus back.
So he can be brutally spanked.
GSXRMarshall Oh yeah, the best chapter to get sucked off by Ward. Seriously, they're the most vanilla chapter ever. What's their specialty, huh? Being there, that's about it. Seriously, the Dark Angels have so much of a better story.
Sam Mullen I agree with you, mostly Legions/chapters have better story than the Ultramarines and the "dark" story behind the Dark Angels is by far too diferent than the other Legions/chapters.
Like fluff wise, they are the coolest, game wise, that's all a matter of how you play. But here's the crappy part, if you were to make a movie, like released in theaters and stuff, who else would the main character(s) be. The Ultramarines are sorta the embodiment of a space marine without the extra need for fluff, which is why they were the chapter in the Space Marine shooter. Enough people could watch this movie without raging about the fluff needed to get it going. However, it could work if an obligatory back-story scene was made. I have often thought about which chapter would be best suited for wold-wide film distribution and unfortunately the list is quite limited, because most people will not be die-hard 40k fans, so it would have to go with the Ultramarines or some successor chapter with no fluff attached to them.
"The Emperor protects" ... "And having a loaded bolster never hurt either"
Screw it. It was a fun watch.
0:06 best moment in the movie.
I must say, this movie does seem to be bearable to watch.
***** I understand that. But if I can listen to Justin Bieber music for a whole two hours, watch My Little Pony for another three hours and play Ride to Hell Retribution, then surely I can watch this.
***** Oh well. But don't worry, I won't lose my sanity at least.
***** I know. But hey, hope the Lord Inquisitor is better.
+AFK man
"Hope" It's our last hope. There is no one making a dark film. Unless it's the guy directing that lord inquisitor
its slow, but not terrible for being the only current warhammer 40k movie. the detail for the armored is beautiful.
>"Chaplain, have you not a weapon?"
The emperors faith is the only weapon I need
FOR THE EMPEROR!
Come to nurgles garden nurgle welcomes you
Hedsy .The plague lord Green skin?
crashnman well I do have green skin on account of nurgle but no I'm no ork
Burn heretic BURN!!!!
U wot m80 I'll 360 nurglescope u
No higher glory than being an Ultramarine.
Chaplain voice guy is an actual actor... Or he at least sounds really similar to a guy who is.
That's John Hurt... also there's Terrence Stamp, Donald Stumpter and Sean Pertwee.. Jon "Dr Who" Pertwee's son. All "real" actors.
The voice acting and the music was good.
How come that Dawn of War intro, a game cinematic from 2004, looks far more better then this?
Higher budget from more experienced people.
Unlawful Waffle You do realise who the cast in this movie consist of, right? I don't think a poor budget is the only reason.
"Higher budget from more experienced people"
Please sir, actually read my post before replying to it.
This is why Chaplain gets to wear the skull helmet
colonel Radec? the blue space marine ?
oh yeah i noticed that too. lol
At 2:15 yes the chaplain has a weapon but he is waiting for the emperor to roll the ethereal dice
I actually like this movie
it sucks that the Black Legion in this clip never chanted their warcry, "Death to the False Emperor!"
I enjoyed this movie. Good effort and a nice action scene.
Agreed. This was a decent film.
Yup.
Katsuki 愛 It could have been better but the fact it was Warhammer 40,000 made it worth watching.
+Future 11 Bravo Agreed, they should make a movie train about Warhammer 40k like with Star Wars.
Just got to love the line “Burn Heretics”
Well, I thought that was cool.
2:27 Fear not the psyker...
UNLESS YOU'RE A HERETIC!
How about a animation about the horrid battles guardsmen have to fight through?
I agree.
apparently some Croziuses can project power fields over medium distance to knock down groups of enemies. It's in the Lexicanum.
What consoles is this coming out for?
I... I don't even....
wigster600 That was the correct question.
dude... i am sorry but it says "A Warhammer 40,000 Movie" for a reason...
Dorvuzak Uzn He was insulting the graphics quality
DXQ The graphics are alright, I'm just hoping its not PC only
That lack of dust being kicked up by the heretic astartes in the background ~1:40.
The Chaplain cast the "Justin Bieber Spell" on those Chaos Marines
The cruel bastard
Ledon has some serious skill if he can fire a bolter one-handed.
