See I knew I wasn't far off. People are too damned sensitive today.

having a current large proportion of percieved second class citizens (which the comment implies) makes a person MORE likely to be bigoted, not less, as the contact is more frequent and so is the percieved resentment. his statement was as offensive to me as a Pole for the reasons MajorTom stated. either way, he said he didn't mean anything in particular about it and i accept that. nuff said.

This is ridiculous; I had expected to be able to download this movie off of a torrent website early this week.



And "YES" I am not being serious.

Ditto for me... The explanation definitely softened the blow, but I still think it's best to steer clear of pidgeon holing a specific ethnic group to a specific form of manual labor. I dunno, maybe things are different in Holland, but in North America, that wouldn't fly. Banning was a bit overstated I guess, but I was genuinely shocked to see that on my screen written so casually with no qualifiers whatsoever. 'Saying they should get some Polish people on it because they will get the job done well and without grumbling is a COMPLETELY different statement than the first in my eyes. I said my piece though and won't derail the topic further - Now, back to wondering what the hell is going on with that movie lol!

So, while this is good news.....

The rub is, we're paying 8 pounds for shipping and it isn't even next day delivery or an equivalent.

Yeah we demand reparations for the stupidity of all of this. morons

Just got another mail, shipping changed to 2-5 days instead of 2-4.

I'm number 500000029‏, don't hurt me.

I'm 100003210 lawl.

Their numbering system is a bit.. odd.

Bassically all this means that if you pre-ordered the movie the only benefit to you pre-ordering it is that you were kept in the loop that you weren't going to get an earlier despatch. If you call maybe a few hours earlier a good enough reason that is.

Sci-fi movie page has the US release date for the movie: 13th of December.

Read it here: http://www.scifimoviepage.com/upcoming/previews/ultramarines.html

I just read the article. I'm hoping the movie arrives on or before the 13th. If the 13th is when it will debut in select theaters and I don't have the DVD by then I'll be little angry.

Nope... I do.

Anyway, the real reason for this post is there's another movie clip.

Pfff, was "shipped" 5 days ago but still nothing..............

If it has to come from bum town USA you'll have to be a bit more patient than that.

My order was shipped USPS Priority Mail on a Wednesday and I had it on a Friday. That's with the standard shipping offered with this item, no upgrades.

Please note that we are not Yankee Doodles, but limeys and uhm, I guess I'm a bog monster or something, but point is, it takes time to get to Yurp.

So the European region DVDs are also being shipped from the USA? I was not expecting that at all. What's more, originally I was expecting mine to be shipped to the US from the UK. This release is full of surprises.

I've got a feeling that it is complicated. Make that, overly complicated. If it was shipped from the UK I'd have it by now, seeing as I got a shipping confirmation last Tuesday.

Remember, they said to allow 20 days for shipping, not 5.

Apparently mine has shipped, go figure.

Anybody have any luck yet?

I got mine last week.

Enjoyed it immensely too. It's like a black library book. It's just 40k fan service. It doesn't try to be anything more and succeeds entirely because of that. There are tons of things you could quibble on but, for something that was made on a small budget, the love for the property comes through and it's just 90 minutes of escapist fun.

I liked it, and I knew it was a short movie, but it seemed so short! It definately left me wanting more.

I think i just got a boner watching this movie. no homo. i'll be buying soon. to all those piraters out there-download if you want but if you like it, please purchase, lets keep these movies supported and continueing

I have to agree - it was a very good fan movie, they kept it simple (so no plasma, terminators, etc) and the story had a good 40k feel to it.

All in all it was a good BL book, exactly as you'd expect from DA

still waiting for mine.
email said it was shipped on dec 8th...

My feeling, exactly. Good movie. I wish it was a full 90 minutes.

Got mine yesterday, email said it shipped on 9th of december.
Wonder what took so long?

Now I just have to watch it, and I hope its any good.

Mine arrived on the 22nd of December. Saw the movie, loved it.

Also, I actually found the plot twist surprising, but maybe I'm just naive.
