And please, as has been noted, this was a TEASER, NOT a TRAILER.
Enjoy!
True it was a teaser but I think people were hoping for a little more then font flashes and a mug shot. Maybe a little action sequence without having to reveal anything...let us know how awesome the cgi is going to be by showing some animation.

Now I know the name of the film, the 40k catchphase and the names of some voice actors I've never heard of.
Seriously? Some classic British actors there.
John Hurt has been in Hellboy among others, but his best recent film was The Proposition. His classic role was probably in Alien. Check out his filmography: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000457/
Terrance Stamp is also an excellent actor - you may have seen him in Smallville or The Phantom Menace. I personally thought The Limey was a brilliant film. Filmography: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000654/
Sean Pertwee is good, but probably a bit more on-dimensional as an actor - his biggest role is probably in Dog Soldiers. Filmography: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0675730/
Oh, the teaser was a waste of time. Looked OK, but gave us nothing!

The only movies that disintersted me more were the Twilight movies...

Since when were space marines old men? Seriously I know 75 year olds that look younger than that marine they showed. Is he going to use his power cane on some orcs?

Too much of a tease, probaly resulting in another tease, hopefully the movie itself doesnt look as horrible as old boy in the teaser, and I do mean old boy. That cat looks like he belongs in a nurseing home not in power armor!!

In fact it gets to the point where I think that GW employees have an unhealthy homo-erotic fixation with musclebound ugly old bald men...

Ill still watch it when it finally drops, but that was almost a waste of 1 minute. I did laugh at the greatest of them all is the UltraMarines. You know its because the CEO plays them is all

That might say a bit more about you then everyone else...
I have to admit though, that marine was rather old looking, especially with 'only' one service stud...
Oh well!

If you felt "teased" and left wanting more..... guess what it was probably a teaser.
Then I guess it's neither, because it's left me less interested. "the greatest of them all is the Ultramarines"? ... please
The proportions look good though, that I am pleased about. It's one of the things that annoys me greatly about dawn of war II compared to the first one... the space marines look really absurd.

Space Marines (all flavours)
Tau Empire
Tyranids

I'm still excited about the movie.... wait I'm more than excited, i'm like jacked up on mountain dew excited. I could have done without the white eyebrows.....especially if he only had one medal stud in his head. Geez...reminds me of some 60 year old National Guard Sgt. LOL. sorry my national guard friends.

I will laugh if Damnatus is better.
I don't think you can call the opinions on this site really reviews. Reviews would imply that someone has seen the whole film which I'm pretty sure nobody has. Give the film a chance when it comes out, We may well be surprised. And about the whole "greatest of them all" thing fluff wise they do have one of if not the most pure flaw free geneseed left to the imperium and they do have quite a few successor chapters based off that geneseed.
So in fact they MAY be the greatest of them all.

My bad.
They 'teased' people about the 'teaser' by hyping it up that they were going to show 'something' that was suppose to be amazing.
With the quote below -
The long-awaited teaser, featuring the very first segment of finished animation, will go live on the movie website on Saturday 29 May – but you’ll have to be registered and logged in to view it (and, to be ready, you can do so here).
We hope it’ll give you a real sense of the amazing quality of the animation, and the look of the film. But – not surprisingly – it won’t give away much more!
I agree with that the teaser wasn't the most action packed or anything like that. But who knows maybe there was issues getting the trailer that was supposed to come out finished in time or some craziness like that.

Or I hope they are planning on releasing a series of teasers. That this would just be the first to get us ... talking.

Was hoping for it to be a bit longer, but the graphical quality looks like it will be about on par with the intro to DoW2, which is all I could hope for in a movie.
