Trailers up!

You need to register to see it but its free and easy.

I didn't care for the cinematic effects on the cast. Reminded me of '70's Batman WAM! BAM! KAPOWW!.

..."The greatest of them all is the Ultramarines."- /gag

Better than expected, but you don't see much. But I do love John Hurt.

I'd watch it for the voice cast alone.

glad you liked it, my dad forgot the administrator codes so I don't have flash player and can't watch it

Ok, that was pointless.

Now I know the name of the film, the 40k catchphase and the names of some voice actors I've never heard of.

"and the greatest of them all are the ULTRAMARINES!"

bs. blandest, sure. most roman-esque, you betcha. most full of themselves, possibly. greatest? nope.

sucky teaser, didn't tease at all. they shoulda at least had a quicky montage of shots at the very end so you can see a little more than some old dude standing around

Weak and totally not worth the time.

Seriously, A trailer of Font effects?

Overall Meh.

Not too excited, but hey, might as well watch it.

Why the feth do I have to register to see the trailer.

Bollocks, I'll wait till its available more freely. They are not going to monetise my details.

The teaser was terrible with a hint of fail too.

After these reviews I am not registering, it will be on YouTube soon.

I will laugh if Damnatus is better.

That was more of a tease of a tease of a possible tease coming up.

/If I had John Hurt's voice, I would randomly prank call people and shout "We are being buried beneath the avalanche of your inadequacies, Mr. Creedy!".

Pfff waste of time, hardly a teaser. Lets look at some flashy font effects isn't what I call a teaser, more guns shooting and aliens exploding is more of a teaser.

Fail.

Ok, yeah. Considering the "Teaser" was a Marine just standing there, more of a cockblock than a cock tease.

Having said that:
1) The disfigured marine's face - holy smokes. For the first ever 40k movie, I was expecting them to play the "safer" route by having the handsome chizzled jawed marine hero you'd usually expect.
2) Voice acting - best voice intro into 40k ever. Colour me impressed.
3) Lets face it, Ultramarines are, quite frankly, awesome. You're just bored of them because 40k tends to be "The Ultramarines show. and friends". However, I've not seen that many Ultramarine 40k movies to be bored of this, so I'm not fussed.
4) I'm equally excited in this venture in not just how this movie turns out, but the concept - if it turns out to be a success, you may well see a future movie featuring your favourite manic depressive/crippling character trait chapter that didn't make it in the first cut!

I'm just sad that when I registered I had to put myself in the oldest age demo.

Now excuse me, there's some dang kids on my lawn.

A bit underwhelming. The render of the Space Marine was really nice and put some of my fears from the concept renders to rest - their proportions used to be really effed up. Voice cast looks good but we knew that already. The font blasting all over the place was kinda lame. There just wasn't a whole lot there. Then again, the first teasers for Batman Begins were bats flying in front of a bat symbol, so I've definitely seen more vague teasers.

It's a great work, continue in this way

(and don't listen to all the forever unsatisfied nerds )

You want a better teaser? Go watch the beginning of the Dawn of War games again.

I really like how its shaping up, but that was a really bad "Teaser". What was the point of registering for that garbage?

And the more importaint question, when are the new limited edition figures going to come out? Seeing some hook like this ususally means that the sales snacks arn't far behind.

QFT

I have to wonder from the comments if people are unaware what "teasers" are.

They're not going to reveal any plot information or anything really spoileriffic.

Thats twice now, once from searching myself, and once from your deeplink.

I'm assuming you are a kid then, as these actors are very well known.

Awesome, can't wait for more to show up.

That was the most stupid trailer I've ever seen

edit: Teaser. The most stupid teaser I have ever seen.

Lame

For me it's enough to hear that the voice acting is good and the animating is sufficient.

Greets
Schepp himself

Terrible.

Now that is a signature worthy quote if i have ever seen one.

And after watching the youtube link to the trailer i have to say it is looking better than the comments would have me believe.

Bald - check
Ultramarine - check
Screaming - nope

WTF? Poor showing indeed. I've come to expect more from GW. If they cannot complete the most basic of requirements I don't know what to say.

The Idea was to show people the basic CGI tech they are using, not to give away any plotline. I bet they are fighting Orks. Or Nids.
