so where's season two?
So where's season two?
GW hired the guy who made it, and every animation he's worked on since has been in production hell.
Astartes 2 is the Thief and Cobbler of movies
They basically paid him to stop because he was a 1 man show embrassing them with far better content than they could shit out.
James Worshop hired him so he wouldn't make more.
make a trailer for season 2
its just the patreon clips from years ago from the original season 2 before the guy got hired by GW
"none of these clips shown will be in season 2"
they're making it primaris slop
Such a good trailer. They seem to be respecting the original Astartes which is a good sign. The Secret Level episode didn't took a lot from it, but it wasn't bad
GW hired
More like they put a gun against his head and forced him to join them or they would make him delete his channel and all content.
probably a terrible decision on his part, if he just threw up a patreon he'd be clearing a million or two yearly with ease
If he threw a Patreon Games Workshop would sent death squads to his parents house. He would get litigated to oblivion before that too. They are too unhinged to let that pass.
if he just threw up a patreon he'd be clearing a million or two yearly with ease
Then they would sue him and do a cease a desist immediately.
Every single penny would end up going to GW. They're as sue-happy as the ADL.
Why did he give them silly shoulder pads and helmets in the animation?
They don't have a real case for infringement: its free, not affecting their market (negatively) and all his own production writing etc.
Power armor isn't a copyright, it's just logos or emblems and calling it astartes which he should have obscured from the start for plausible deniability. But even with that it's weak af and they would get horrible press to boot.
It doesn't matter if their case is weak, he would still have to show up to court and that's an expense. They win by forcing you to spend money to defend yourself.
All we want is the horrible press
Tucker Carlson duh
capitalism hates competition and they merced his ass
yeah and that would get him even more money on patreon & gofundme out of pity
They absolutely have a case against him since he is very obviously using their IP, character designs, and possible trademarks. Its completely irrelevant as to whether or not he's charging the audience money to view the content. The fact that he'd have a patreon specifically so you could give him money to have him make more only makes his case considerably worse.
The only reason companies don't pull down fan made content in general is because its dumb, not because they don't legally have the right to.
why can't they be cool and tactical like primaris?
This was lightning in the bottle that will likely never be equalled let alone topped. Especially by the already announced official Astartes Part 2. This is because GW's internal animation studio is full of low talent hacks. The closest anything has come to Astartes was Secret Level and it still couldn't top it with all the money and big studio backing in the world.
they're going to add cunts, blacks, and dialogue making it instantly lame
This is because GW's internal animation studio is full of low talent hacks.
I mean Syama's father was an animator himself and he grew up around that stuff. He had 20 years of experience with 3d stuff. Also self-taught. Dude is a monster of talent. 9 to 5 dudes simply can't compete.
Not worth getting blacklisted from the industry. Of course, he COULD go full indie and get his salary entirely through crowdfunding. But most artists would prefer to be employed by the industry. It's a pride thing, I guess
GW was getting tons of sweet fan films until they went ultrajew and ruined everything
go read the definition of fair use famalam
Not sure if fellas here watched, but I'm going to post it anyway: youtube.com
First time we've ever seen Malcador outside of books and lore I think
he did the recent space marine game thingy on Prime and GW released a trailer for Astartes 2. GW snapped him up and now he's getting a decent salary whilst creating kino and I'm happy for him. w
what's the problem here?
How would you adapt a daemonculaba scene?
2026
its literally at the end of the teaser trailer
retard.
what's the problem here?
op is a retard.
You might want to take your own advice there buddy.
copyright.gov
Sayama was the first person on Earth, like in literal history, to nail the movements of a space marine. Even some of the better DoW animated shorts didn't bring the rizz heavy weight of movement the space marines have in Astartes. It literally cannot be overstated how artistically and stylistically kino the the space marines move in Astartes.
thought so. carry on lads and lady's
true looks gay like capeshit
kill yourself
but its meant to look like toys because that video is literally created to sell plastic miniatures.
astartes doesnt look like that because its not meant to sell toys.
Garbage animation compared to Astartes. Literally not on the same level or the same universe in terms of artistic and stylistic merit. Official GW try to get by with a lot of noise and bluster and quite often a lot of horrifically bad and annoying camera shake. They are just not on the same level. Not even close.
Astartes sold more toys for GW than than that crap animated trailer could ever hope to.
thats not what i said or implied.
so i dont know what the fuck you are talking about
Its completely irrelevant as to whether or not he's charging the audience money to view the content
Purpose and character of the use, including whether the use is of a commercial nature
anon doesn't understand what an example is
how brown of an esl are you?
bro just upload it to youtube and earn adsense and take donations on patreon, that's totally not commercializing your project
Gew W got to the animator and forced him to be on their payroll and so took creative control over his projects. GW is one of the most litigious and greedy companies on Earth
They also bullied Alfabusa to stop making TTS and threatened to sue Arch Warhammer over having "Warhammer" in his name. This is the same company that tried to trademark the concept of "power armor" at one point.
I don't know what you are taking about
but its meant to look like toys because that video is literally created to sell plastic miniatures
Really Anon. Just take the L on this one.
I envy the simplicity of people like you. Everything is just so simple and uncomplicated.
what's the problem here?
Some people are simply used to certain kinds of high budget marketing campaigns where companies basically give people regular updates about the games or the movies they're making that when they see GW just being quiet for years and years they assume they've basically abandoned the project. Like a big movie studio like Warner Bros. makes a movie, their marketing budget is similar to the production budget which means lots of trailers, lots of trailers, actors doing the rounds on talk shows, youtube vlogs, bts footage, cross-company promotional events like Lambo making a custom car that appears in some motor magazine program and so on.
They also bullied Alfabusa to stop making TTS
good
it was shit and its fanbase was pure slop.
They also bullied Alfabusa to stop making TTS
I love TTS but this is bullshit. The reality is that Alfabusa was getting sick of making TTS for a long time (he was very vocal about it on Twitter), so the moment GW released that retarded anti-fan content statement (which they NEVER actually enforced), he used it as an excuse to cancel TTS without fans getting mad at him. I love Hunter the Parenting equally if not more, but Alfabusa giving up on TTS and using GW as a scapegoat for his own burnout is cowardly bullshit. Then again, fuck GW for unrelated reasons
donations
commerce
post isn't even coherent
If you start a patreon and specifically say shit like "Give me money so I can keep making animations", yes you are in fact commercializing your work. People aren't donating out of charity.
sometimes life isn't as complicated as people make it. I understand the complexities, I just don't care about it any more. I'm happier in ignorance to be honest, cynical as it is.
Trying to prove people wrong is just endless gripe. I'd rather say "haha yeah man, you rock on, well I like xyz" instead of convincing people to my train of thought.
Once you get comfortable in social rot you sorta find an inner peace of knowing you could rise above it at any point but just don't bother. A weird psuedo-superiority to it all, I suppose.
Honestly as a step back, my train of thought is probably not fantastic anyway so eh. Having push back from normies is helpful to a certain degree.
fucking hell dude, ever heard of paragraphs? what are talking about any more my friend?
Power armor isn't a copyright
Oh come on. If GW tried pursuing litigation not even something like a Disney could prevent being force to settle at absolute best. This isn't a case of a guy making a series that makes a couple visual allusions to the 40k universe. It was from the get go a 100% in universe story using existing iconography, designs and lore. You're beyond delusional if you think he could get away with doing this shit without their blessing, and he would never get it because it potentially steps on the toes of future GW projects using the factions and entities referenced not even getting into how much it makes 1st party GW projects look like amateurish slop.
fucking hell dude, ever heard of paragraphs?
lmao
okay just change it a little, blizzard was founded on stealing everyone else's shit that way
my comedy is lost :(

what's the problem here?
People with way less talent than him were trying to tell him how to animate and having his elite skill have to go through the inferior filter of official GW will simply make the final product worse than if they had just left him alone to do his thing. They own the ip and have all the leverage so they have final say. But the fact is him being forced to collaborate with inferiors at GW just makes it all worse for us fans that just want more kino Astartes. If it was prime peak Pixar or peak Blizzard or peak Blur Studios or peak Squeenix it would be different. But these are lesser talents than him that get to call the shots because they own the rights. It's why we can't have nice things. This all happened right after the first Astartes video released and helped send the IP into overdrive.
Sic semper tyrannis!
Never. They ran out of story. When all you've got is some OP motherfuckers killing normies, there's not many places for the plot to go.
that's what the precure staff did when they hired kazunori
there's not many places for the plot to go.
A little isn't going to do it because profitability isn't the issue, it's the damage his projects are doing to the property from a brand control perspective. If Petersen turned down the offer but kept trying to do anything remotely like Astartes he'd have so many court orders and lawsuits crammed up his ass he'd choke on them. GW had to get him under contract because otherwise each installment he released would be a significant blow to their brand credibility.
blizzard was founded on stealing everyone else's shit that way
And they settled out of court and almost certainly paid a fortune to not have to pay even more in lawyer's fees before getting an official court order to pay maybe even more. It's not like Blizzard was free and clear after the collaborative project that fell apart and got spun off into Starcraft became a hit.
It was from the get go a 100% in universe story using existing iconography, designs and lore.
it's not though, the universe and the Astartes themselves sure but the story, the antagonists etc are all fanfic.
A few rerenders and it's just generic power armor dudes fighting aliens that already don't exist in 40k lore
Now that the H.H. is done The only current era storylines Im really interested in are the continuation of the Watchers of the Throne/Vaults of Terra storylines and the Bequin/King in Yellow storyline (this is the big one)
There was a book "Awakenings" about a female Inquisitor (far and away my favorite faction) that was pretty interesting. But the main character feels a teeny bit too pre election and girlbossy.
Bro never stood a chance against Horus. Like literally none. They tried to play it like he wasn't at full strength because he got stabbed with a cursed blade and all but it wouldn't have mattered. But in his defense Horus did have to cheat and use the force to beat him.
GW kiked him you mean.
His first five episodes got claimed by those faggots and he had to take down the originals.
Now, he's stuck working for one of the most faggoty kike-tier companies ever
GW was making power moves to go full Blackrock corporate ESG with aids ridden pozzery up and down the IP until the election changed everything. Trump saved Warhammer 40k even though I'm one thousand percent positive he's never heard of it.
probably a terrible decision on his part, if he just threw up a patreon he'd be clearing a million or two yearly with ease
Games Workshop threatened him with a lawsuit if he didn't take down the video. And even when he joined GW, they ordered him to take down all his videos.
GW has threatened to sue hundreds of 40K creators. Many good animations have disappeared from the internet because of GW.
they would make him delete his channel and all content.
They still did.
They don't have a real case for infringement: its free, not affecting their market (negatively) and all his own production writing etc.
Power armor isn't a copyright, it's just logos or emblems and calling it astartes which he should have obscured from the start for plausible deniability. But even with that it's weak af and they would get horrible press to boot.
Look at this armchair wannabe lawyer. Lmao. Thinks he knows the law.
Games Workshop has already sued and/or shut down dozens of YouTube animation channels because they used 40K in their animation. Every single one has lost.
Not to mention YouTube always sides the large company first.
Games Workshop has already sued and/or shut down dozens of YouTube animation channels because they used 40K in their animation. Every single one has lost.
They actually haven't.
fair use is to use footage of something in order to CRITIQUE it not use someone else's IP to generate your own content. My god you are fucking retarded
I am the good guy here. I didn't do anything wrong. Father is actually the real traitor. I need to do whatever Chaos says so I can control Chaos
Battlemaul M69: The Chaos Crashout
dude scroll 2 posts down from the one you quoted and read the definition you fucking moron lmao
There's a Siege of Terra anthology book coming out this year which will likely lead into a scouring series, they're not going to just let the endless cash cow die
donation is charity
my god how fucking stupid are you? what would be the point of having copyright and trademarks if anyone can just do whatever they want with everyone eles shit? Disney may as well make batman and harry potter movies because its fair use right? jesus christ stfu you stupid nigger
What was his problem?
You think the IRS is going to accept your patreon donations as charitable donations on your tax filings?
its the only interesting setting they have for stories. I cant summon a single shit to give about 40k stories all of the important stuff happened way back when.
they have so far. are you not doing this?
Unless the donations are specifically going to registered non-profits you can't write them off as charity on your taxes. How much have you written off on your taxes?
What does that have to do with you not knowing you don't know what the definition of fair use is?
We've established you're retarded so why should I even read your posts?
stupid nigger noises
cum guzzling retard
Daddy didn't pay enough attention to him
iirc He worked on this
youtube.com
or atleast had a hand in the animation and making of it. Pretty kino, too bad its a one off and part of an amazon thing about video games
anon your retardation is worsening, you can't even remember you objectively proved you're retarded 2 minutes ago
*Glares at you autistically*
the product is released for free it by definition cannot be commerce. you could argue the following releases are in that context, sure.
he was an incel
Would you say NBC wasn't commercializing their work because they were broadcasting the content for free to anyone who could receive the signal?
are you going to compare ads to patreon? even if you make it clausal that he "advertizes" his patreon it's still an optional donation unlike the ad
He uploaded the videos to youtube anon. You think he wasn't running adsense on them?
you dont seem to be very capable of arguing in the abstract
donation is charity
I like funny Ork memes as much as the next person but I'm really glad this seems to be portraying them as huge brutal savages again. Feel like that aspect of them has started to get lost in the jokes as of late.
Project Morningstar, whatever happened there
