Some people are actually passionate. Like Adam Sandler doing annual vacations for his bros and calling it movie filming. Also Snakes on a Plane only stayed that way because Samuel L Jackson demanded it. Also Afro Samurai's very existence. Point being, a person can do a lot and cynicism for cynicism's sake is a waste of time. If you're convinced it's gonna suck why waste energy tracking it and getting incested instead of stuff that makes you happy as opposed to salty?

Constant overdose of stimulants leads to death. Jokes aside you once more ascribe motives to me and then want explanations? Why do you even ask? Do you actually want to understand or are you just not even sure on your own statements?
I'm still surprised that people expect an actor aka a professional meat puppet to enact any will of their own.
I think because we've specifically seen this actor give opinions on things he's working on, and even leave projects if he didn't like the direction it's going. He also has a history of liking the source material. So you're right in general, but I think this is a bit of a special case. Hopefully, at least.
All I fear is that it is merely a persona and a facade to capture the already starved elements, rather than forcing them out of spite to try and create their own new stuff, feels like it used to be a lot more fan creation in the past.
Games Workshop and Amazon are already both pozzed as fuck, so it's really impossible to be surprised by this. Anyone who didn't think this was going to suck is going to get a bit of a reality check.
The hobby itself is an innoculation against it. No matter how pozzed Game Workshop gets, they're main business is still selling toy models for an autistic wargame to males with a high disposable income.
There's no opening up the market or blue ocean strategies because the upfront cost to people is both the money and time you need to devote to sit there and paint models for said wargame which then takes hours to play. You'll never get normies to do that.
What I got from that article was "Henry Cavill, future divorce rape victim"
She's obviously from money if her sweet 16 party was extravagent enough to go on a TV show and she's already had some prestigious sounding jobs in Hollywood. Clearly a bimbo riding on daddy's success.
Someone quote the relevant passages. I don't feel like trawling through this vapid article. This chick is giving me Olivia Wilde and Amber Heard vibes, by the way. rofl
I’m not familiar with Warhammer very much but I would assume it’s a majority male hobby or a hobby that generally appeals to males? Is she the type to have the “women need to be in this hobby because there are too many males” mentality?
40k/Warhammer/tabletop wargaming is at best described as a money sink, at worse financial ruin waiting to happen.
There are a lot of different ways someone can engage in the hobby from simply building and painting models to actual battles vs someone else but regardless of what someone does it still requires having something to battle with.
Now there are several different scales at which people can play although the most common is the army level with individual soldiers either as stand alone models or sometimes grouped up into units where small "plates" can be used to place an entire unit on simply so you can move an entire cavalry group as one rather than having to move each mounted unit one at a time. Sometimes this is also important due to combat rules as the plate will be considered for attacking ranges in melee.
However there are also "larger" army options which include mountain sized vehicles named Titans. Now while there are Titans scaled to the common army models there are shrunk down versions so you don't have to lug around a 3 foot tall models that would be at risk of falling over and breaking. Essentially you just swap 1 inch tall soldiers for 1 inch tall Titans and play that way. There is also space combat which is a bit weird at times since space is 3D but whatever.
Regardless of what someone does with whatever models they go for it still all can cost an absurd amount of money.
It absolutely can cost an absurd amount of money but it is one of the open and future-proofed hobbies you can have.
A model from 30+ years ago can still probably be played today and will be able 30+ years from now if the world is still around. Even if Game Workshop lit itself on fire tomorrow there's still decades of rulesets, scales to play at, specialist games, skirmish games, etc and that's if you just want to play the game. You could easily just paint miniatures and never touch a single die or rulebook.

Pretty much what my dad did when he was into it. Mostly collected the fantasy stuff and even then only really a few pieces like a Skaven bellringer or something. Never intended to battle anyone and he was more than fine with that.
It's not that bad but it is a common sentiment that a drug addiction is a cheaper hobby than warhammer. The models, books, paints, etc required to play a game can easily go into the $1000+ range and that could just be for one army.
It's one of the few things still gatekept by nerds because no matter how much pozzed the parent company gets, at the end of the day it's an autistic wargame using models that you have to sit and paint for hours beforehand and you could never get a normie to do that.
God damn you are fucking dumb. It clearly states VERTIGO IS BEHIND IT WITH AMAZON. But you're such a stupid cunt who thinks you know everything and wants to believe you are correct, you can't understand this. And now, you may go back to sticking your enlarged clit into Taylor Lorenz's front hole.
I knew it was doomed already; it's an Amazon Studios project!
They picked up God of War, too... Such a shame.
Oh man i lost it when I saw the picture of her wearing glasses playing chess that looks like a professional third party took it.
That's hilariously staged to make her look less bimbo.

I believe ConPro has a stock answer for this situation.
Jurassic Crucification.

Good luck Superman.
He also dated several known beards. He's screaming from the closet, either as a gay man or a cuck bound and gagged with duct tape for instagram likes.

No doubt once Henry dumps her ass, we'll see the deep end.
W40K has had many shitty adaptations and games. One more won't make a difference.
Yeah but I want Street Fighter the Movie bad, not Netflix Resident Evil bad.
B-level camp is fun. Big budget, over-produced garbage is simply garbage.
Sorry boy, but we're in the infernal 20s.
The 20s really are infernal. And they vote.

Warhammer is the kind of hobby that you have to give more than you get out of it and derive fun out of it that way,
I’ve been meaning to check out the books. They look very interesting
Sounds like marriage.
If you were to simply burn your money in a bucket you'd probably still get a better return than spending/investing in 40k as a hobby.
That bad?

I’ve heard of efforts to infiltrate the hobby. Good to hear it’s being gatekept
Only because commies are broke.
Found this clip on IG that is quite apt given various things.

No idea if the site will like gofile being used but it's a good throwaway site for clips since things are auto deleted after 10 days of inactivity.
Warhammer is such a male hobby that its got more trannies than bio females it seems.
Uh huh. Its going to be fannytastic.
Eh, sometimes they produce a good first season. I'm not writing this off yet, it could still be fun.
Sounds to me like he's brought his cumdump onboard just so that he can say there's a woman in a high position. Based.
Looking at that photo, only one thing is going through my head.
Love this song.
I'll reserve judgement until the first trailer drops, it's already up in the air as it's Amazon.
Like he saved DC & Witcher?
The only thing he saves are the moments where he is on screen. I am reminded of Nicolas Cage.
She is not bankrolling anything. She only shot to fame/infamy by pointing out she was dating him and using his pics on her instagram account.
She isn't rich, her parents were. She is a pr piece at vertigo, which is partially paying for it. Read the article, faggot.
