The folks at GW are letting Amazon honey-duck them into failure. You literally have a none name and actual fan who other fans instantly like even non-wh40k ppl would of watched. You have Space Marine 2 bringing gamers in and I guess secret levels. So instead of using that to build momentum and go for it your cramming in DEI and lore changes.
GW itself is already woke and trying to push degeneracy since at least three years. The last book of the lion for example had some they-them bs, completely disgusting and all this without Goyslopzon.
The changes started before SM2. In my opinion they should fire the wokies within the company. Even if they're veteran writers with a bunch of lore behind them. Woke isnt worth it.
couldnt figure out what to do?!?!? All they have to do is copy canon lore 100% without any of the DEi changes they did this year and people will be happy.
40k are already lost thou... they pushe femake custodes and changed the lore for woke reasons and a lot of the lore books last 2-3 years hace been pushing woke stuff. Most casuals that just play there video games and don't play the miniature games, paint models or hace read the lore books for 20 years like I have don't really know that. They just see space marine 2 and think its a cool ip without knowing that it has already fallen 😢
Bless Cavill. if only him and Elon Musk could hook up to fund a movie studio. buy the rights to marvel and starwars while they are making a kikass 40k product
well if this happens it must have been for something (remember the Emperor protects). At this point Henry should start streaming his own geek stuff and playthrough since hollywood seems to hate him a lot
This is a blessing, real ones would rather have no 40k show them a shit one, the only one who lost here is cavill, no good deed goes unpunished. I hope cavill and GW aproach HBO, i think wr got a better shot for a grimdark setting with them
Spending $1 billion on a series about The Lord of the Rings, only to miss the mark by trying to force inclusivity at every turn... Wanting to destroy a legendary franchise ( Warhammer 40k) by repeating the same mistakes... Either Amazon never learns from its errors, or the lobbyists driving these ideologies are much more powerful than we think, managing to bypass the fans' wishes despite all that money. It’s astonishing and reflective of our times.
It's because of a subculture in hollywood among creatives. They're out of touch with reality and living in a feedback loop. They come out with this garbage and get a resounding yaaaaass from everyone they ever encounter within their bubble. People who know it's a bad idea won't fight back because of career risk. If you are an executive it doesn't benefit you personally to intervene, but you DO run the risk of getting fired for rocking the boat. So it's zero upside with unlimited downside for going against the grain. You see this with bad ideas in companies all the time.

@Docktavion i feel that will change soon. With the games success (sm2) and the push back from the fem stodes and the show getting canceled as a result of our boi Cavill and fan base push back the company will inevitably shift back to wanting money. The tourists aren't playing the tabletop they are not buying the books. We are all GW has.
Sounds like the best option at this point, GW can back out of their BS with the Custodes. On a side note this could have been one of the easiest money makers ever, all Amazon had to do was listen to Henry. How hard would it have been to do an Eisenhorn story? They probably could have talked Dan Abnett into writing the script. SMH
Having seen Dan Abnett's script work in use already (Ultramarines) I'd rather he support than write directly. Script writing is it's own skillset and he doesn't have it.
It is incredible how the opportunity to bring a long-term franchise to life has been thrown away. A mixture of MBAs who cannot think themselves out of biz-speak and woke cultists have decimated so many businesses.
I would rather Henry go out and do something on his own then have to go through Amazon. I get the feeling you simply would not buckle. I feel like they were probably trying to woke it up. And he simply would not budge
So we got garbage female custodes retcon that doesn't make any sense, for no reason. Its primaris all over again... I pray for the souls of all the future writers who will have to fix it.
If this is true its good and bad. Good because we wont have to see Amazon butchered series. Bad because Henry cavil left witcher to be superman especially because of the stuff happening with the witcher behind the scenes and he feels like Superman is more inconic, then they said they are gonna use a new superman and fired Henry and now this. 3 franchise he loves that did him dirty
as long as he invests in stock, he can become an influencer and do whatever the frick he wants even if that means no appearences on the big screen. Striving for excellence and keeping close to source materials seems like a no brainer but producers and investors really like to keep pulling a leg from us, seeing Henry stand by his principles is really refreshing as a big shot in the industry and them recasting superman is basically just a spite move against his recent "activism" if we can even call it that. Hopefully this career can keep flourishing doing characters and content he enjoys and can stand by sooner rather than later, or that at least he is able to share his passions with his fans by other means without money bags wanting to destroy them
Good news games workshop, I can stop buying Warhammer stuff at all. I got my space marine 2 it was great. DOW 3 was a waste of waste, Now I don’t have to care anymore.

If GW really was just trying to use the femstodes to demonstrate that the fanbase won't accept female space marines then I think they'd have limited it to the side story in the codex. Putting the femstodes into an episode of their animation is more serious and makes me think that GW really want them.
The number of projects that went South on Prime... I loved Into the Borderlands early on, ...went weird and discontinued. Rings of Power, Wheel of Time where everything went.belly up.. Omg WH40K, dear Lord that should be fan thru Netflix not Prime. It's as if they are trying to throw Spice Girls into the Grimdark.
We stand with Henry ! We all stand for WH40K as it was meant to be - Brutal with Integrity, crushing before it all that is woke ! For The Emperor ! Amazon's loss.
For the ONLY God Emperor and our savior Jesus Christ! I'm actually glad Amazon doesn't have the rights to 40k, it would be a woke hot mess. I rather have no high budget show, if that show was going to be woke. Forget it Amazon.
It's fine. I would rather see the IP retain what's left of it's already damaged integrity than to fall to whatever woke garbage they had in store for it in order to pander to "modern audiences". A lot of money has been left on the table though; 40k done right could be far bigger than Star Wars or the MCU. Oh well.
It hasn't been cancelled, Amazon and GW have until December to come to an agreement, which they probably will. This is normal with contracts involving an IP like Warhammer.
this is a great news actually lol. I'm starting to get extremely selective and cautious with this IP, esp from their latest blunder. If they move forward with DEI even deeper, they'll know what would happen. It's ignorant of them (which is not surprising btw) to even consider this implementation, considering how several franchise has suffered because of it.
As soon as they got rid of Henry, I stoped following updates, I completely forgot about this until your video just popped up Someone from Netflix needs to approach Henry and say “please co direct warhammer 40k, we’ll do one season keeping it how you want it and see how it goes”
Good I don't want know Halo series .. The thing about live action , the actual actors try to be bigger then the actual characters & the story gets changed for a particular agenda.. Independent RUclipsrs who make simple lore videos or animations is good enough for me because they actually respect & love the story
What I would love to see Henry in is an equivalent of the first season of True Detective, but with two agents of the inquisition. Techno-noir with some cosmic horror, doesn't have to be a huge budget and it would fit the ethos of the Eisenhorn books (even if it wasn't the Eisenhorn story).
i hope it get canceled and HBO or someone else can give games workshop and cavil freedoom to create what ever they want in the warhammer universe! and then they get to se the hit movie be huge! followed by a series doing well! My god id be happy!

GW have no clue what the fanbase wants. it's the normal hollywood lib Dem attittude of "WE KNOW BEST, sit down neckbeards, if you don't do as we say you are bigots/sexist/tphobes" etc we have seen the past 7 years in american identity politics and woke hate mongering. I wish someone could hook Caville and Elon Musk together to partner in a movie or show. Heck, along with 40k Musk should buy StarWars and Marvel now Disney has ruined them, he would make trillions.
@@alansokelisatruehero8520 it isn’t even GW anymore, they’ve loaded themselves to the gills with activists and they’ll sacrifice anything to push the message
The folks at GW are letting Amazon honey-duck them into failure.
You literally have a none name and actual fan who other fans instantly like even non-wh40k ppl would of watched.
You have Space Marine 2 bringing gamers in and I guess secret levels. So instead of using that to build momentum and go for it your cramming in DEI and lore changes.
GW itself is already woke and trying to push degeneracy since at least three years. The last book of the lion for example had some they-them bs, completely disgusting and all this without Goyslopzon.
The changes started before SM2.
In my opinion they should fire the wokies within the company. Even if they're veteran writers with a bunch of lore behind them.
Woke isnt worth it.
couldnt figure out what to do?!?!? All they have to do is copy canon lore 100% without any of the DEi changes they did this year and people will be happy.
40k are already lost thou... they pushe femake custodes and changed the lore for woke reasons and a lot of the lore books last 2-3 years hace been pushing woke stuff. Most casuals that just play there video games and don't play the miniature games, paint models or hace read the lore books for 20 years like I have don't really know that. They just see space marine 2 and think its a cool ip without knowing that it has already fallen 😢
Henry wouldn't do it unless it was genuine to warhammer and the real fanbase
Based Henry Cavill
Bless Cavill. if only him and Elon Musk could hook up to fund a movie studio. buy the rights to marvel and starwars while they are making a kikass 40k product
The God-Emporer Cavill Protects!
well if this happens it must have been for something (remember the Emperor protects). At this point Henry should start streaming his own geek stuff and playthrough since hollywood seems to hate him a lot
This is a blessing, real ones would rather have no 40k show them a shit one, the only one who lost here is cavill, no good deed goes unpunished.
I hope cavill and GW aproach HBO, i think wr got a better shot for a grimdark setting with them
Might be too nerdy for em lol.
Spending $1 billion on a series about The Lord of the Rings, only to miss the mark by trying to force inclusivity at every turn... Wanting to destroy a legendary franchise ( Warhammer 40k) by repeating the same mistakes... Either Amazon never learns from its errors, or the lobbyists driving these ideologies are much more powerful than we think, managing to bypass the fans' wishes despite all that money.
It’s astonishing and reflective of our times.
It's because of a subculture in hollywood among creatives. They're out of touch with reality and living in a feedback loop. They come out with this garbage and get a resounding yaaaaass from everyone they ever encounter within their bubble.
People who know it's a bad idea won't fight back because of career risk. If you are an executive it doesn't benefit you personally to intervene, but you DO run the risk of getting fired for rocking the boat.
So it's zero upside with unlimited downside for going against the grain. You see this with bad ideas in companies all the time.
It's not that they are powerful, it's that they actually work at every level within these organisations
Everything woke turns to...
Slaanesh
Heresy!
DoodySoft ™
Shite!
CHAOS!
It's obvious Henry hasn't been to a Diddy Party.
Amazon: “We’re thinking Paramount’s Halo series, but better.”
Henry: “HERESY!”
All they need to start is a Rogue Trader set up which show cases characters from all the different factions as the show progresses.
But they won’t. It will be about an all ethnic GSC and how they just want to move to Terra and raise their 3 armed babies but the white bigots of the Imperium won’t let them…
Great news!
Having Amazon adapt 40k is like letting Slaanesh do a translation of the Codex Astartes for young readers.
May as well have Uwe direct the movie
@@TheScrootch Ha, Uwe. Gen Zs don't know who he was.
I'm not upset. They would have f**ked this up just as badly as LOTR or Fallout.
Yeah it'd be black lesbian astartes if Amazon were involved
LOTR sure, but Fallout ?! The fallout show is fucking great and has been praised. They captured the fallout humour pretty well.
@@NoNeed2No with amazing tech skills more advance than enyone else that they/them taught themselves because she don't need no man. the other space marines will be just fodder for her anti male "jokes" and humiliate and slam on the right. fyi, anyone to the right of Woke as F$%^ is considered right wing. centrists, moderates, libertarians, ALL right wingers in Democrats minds or those that still identify as a D.
@@thesunryze4658 For normies sure, but for a lot of the die-hard Fallout fanbase, it supposedly royally fucks up a lot of the lore from the games. They've even changed the core message of the games from being about war and how it never changes, to once again some shitty commentary about ''muh capitalism is bad''.
@@death-king1834 I'm not a die-hard fan but have played fallout since fallout 3 / NV (didn't play the turn based ones basicaly), and I have pretty positive feelings about it especially compared to other video game adaptations. Except for the Shady Sands date on a chalkboard, what else did they exactly get wrong ? Nothing as far as I know.
As for the main message being changed, you're right. But it's not a deal breaker as far as I'm concerned. Feel free to call me a normie; I'm not a walking compendium of Fallout lore by any means.
It would've just been another Rings of Power, and we all know how popular that show has been lately 😏
Lately? More like from the start, lol
Henry Cavill is the Big E, that the fans deserve.
wow amazon really said "my way or the highway".
I feel real bad for Henry but also really proud that he stood up for his project
Amazon should just stop making shows all together.
I wish people would stop abusing Henry Cavill. The man has worked on all his favorite series just to watch them be destroyed.
Good, it was gonna be shit anyway.
Like your existence
@@Carrionationhey don't boo him for having some truth in his statement
good. Now us fans can fund it ourselves and superman can get it done properly.
I think they should not allow amazon to destroy Warhammer with female, gay and trans custodies this would be the true death of 5O years of legacy.
it's better this way. I'm sure Henry learned from working with Netflix what happens to these projects when the source material is not respected.
Here's what they should have done...not inserted dei bs. Problem solved.
Just a shame it’s way too late. Every recent gw computer game, book and ever more factions are fully embracing it.
@Docktavion it's not too late that's the thing. Space marines 2 is proof of that.
@@yomomma2623 even that game as issues. Uber cadian unkillable girl boss. Several black African ultramarines instead of black “ Europeans”. Worse is supposedly coming with optional dlc content that caters to the “modern” audience.
People keep allowing the small lore changes which allows the larger ones to be swept on by.
@Docktavion i feel that will change soon. With the games success (sm2) and the push back from the fem stodes and the show getting canceled as a result of our boi Cavill and fan base push back the company will inevitably shift back to wanting money. The tourists aren't playing the tabletop they are not buying the books. We are all GW has.
Sounds like the best option at this point, GW can back out of their BS with the Custodes. On a side note this could have been one of the easiest money makers ever, all Amazon had to do was listen to Henry. How hard would it have been to do an Eisenhorn story? They probably could have talked Dan Abnett into writing the script. SMH
Having seen Dan Abnett's script work in use already (Ultramarines) I'd rather he support than write directly. Script writing is it's own skillset and he doesn't have it.
It is incredible how the opportunity to bring a long-term franchise to life has been thrown away. A mixture of MBAs who cannot think themselves out of biz-speak and woke cultists have decimated so many businesses.
Don't worry, Games Workshop is capapble of destroying official Warhammer entirely on its own.
I would rather Henry go out and do something on his own then have to go through Amazon. I get the feeling you simply would not buckle. I feel like they were probably trying to woke it up. And he simply would not budge
Henry Cavill is a person of principle. Not a lot around. Willing to stand up, and be counted, when something he loves looks to be destroyed.
Id rather have none than whatever woke nightmare they would have shit out.
Good job Cavil. stay strong.
No warhammer rather then wokehammer smdh Henry stood on business 👌🔥💯
They'd rather scrap it than I don't know..... make it the way fans want.
And people call it conspiracy when i say there are massive companies who forces DEI.
So we got garbage female custodes retcon that doesn't make any sense, for no reason. Its primaris all over again... I pray for the souls of all the future writers who will have to fix it.
female custodes are permitted in the lore..it doesnt mention anything about being woke, but it sure says females are capable of being custodes.
If this is true its good and bad. Good because we wont have to see Amazon butchered series. Bad because Henry cavil left witcher to be superman especially because of the stuff happening with the witcher behind the scenes and he feels like Superman is more inconic, then they said they are gonna use a new superman and fired Henry and now this. 3 franchise he loves that did him dirty
IT IS NOT THE FRANCHISES , IS THE PEOPLE THAT RUNS THE SHOW THAT IS FUCKIN EVERYTHING UP .
as long as he invests in stock, he can become an influencer and do whatever the frick he wants even if that means no appearences on the big screen.
Striving for excellence and keeping close to source materials seems like a no brainer but producers and investors really like to keep pulling a leg from us, seeing Henry stand by his principles is really refreshing as a big shot in the industry and them recasting superman is basically just a spite move against his recent "activism" if we can even call it that. Hopefully this career can keep flourishing doing characters and content he enjoys and can stand by sooner rather than later, or that at least he is able to share his passions with his fans by other means without money bags wanting to destroy them
Amazon made “rings of power”.
Need there be more than that to be said here?
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT~??!? Where was the "mOdErN aUdIeNcE"??! Why didn't they start a petition to keep it going??! How could this have happened?!?!?!?
Absolutely NOTHING went wrong. This went exactly how it should have gone. You've all seen what they did to Tolkien. This is 100% a win.
Good news games workshop, I can stop buying Warhammer stuff at all. I got my space marine 2 it was great. DOW 3 was a waste of waste, Now I don’t have to care anymore. Henry is literally the only reason I was still interested in 40 K keep doing this and before you know it, no one will know who you were
I still think 40k would be better in high-quality animation and not live action.
“Warhammer 40K isn’t ready for Hollywood” said the passive aggressive, woke ideologue.
WRONG! Hollywood isn’t ready for Warhammer 40K!
Never will be, unless there's some Great Unwokening in 10-20 years somehow.
@@Gaze73 it’ll be way sooner than that time estimate
@@TheNucaKola Nah, you're optimistic. There has yet to be a single studio to change their ways after their woke slop flopped. They all double down and do it again.
@@Gaze73 and you’re a pessimist
@@TheNucaKola Realist. In the next pride month, 80-90% of major western companies will still change their logos to rainbows. How long before that drops to 40%? Does the society at large look like they want the percentage to drop? Only gamers do.
“It’s hugely popular and everyone who learns about it seems to love it - but there’s no way we can be involved unless we can fundamentally change it until it’s unrecognizable.”
This would have been a cashcow easy ...
I'm actually very happy about this...keep it away from the agenda as much as possible
The chance to make a properly themed 40k show was 20 years or more ago. It would be woke nonsense now
Good. No one wants 40K shit from Amazon.
HC should buy the rights 40k himself, then create a Production Committee to actually produce the show with him as Showrunner.
Last thing I wanted to see today... Them Genestealers in Amazon got their claws in real deep...
If you are a 40k fan this is good news
What went wrong? It's retconning the lore just to insert femtodes in the worst way possible.
Sadly a good news.
I doubt Amazon will let this IP go. They’d loose a lot of potential earnings so I’d bet Amazon would cave and go along with what GW want
Still pissed about WoT. I hear there's even a third season coming, just let it die.
could have been a great series and the books are all there unlike Game of Thrones. Rafe and his writers can not write a better story than Jordan.
They should make a world of tanks show with historically accurate female tank operators.
@@Gaze73 Thay already did, Girls unt Panzer!
@@soHatey That's anime, understandable. But live action would be ridiculous. They would gaslight us and claim that there was an ace tank crew made entirely of women, but history overlooked them.
Its better for it to die than let it become like LOTR. Tell more stories via the space marine game series.
Theres no easy way to make 40k woke without huge changes , plus Cavel would make a huge fuzz, so they gave up
If GW really was just trying to use the femstodes to demonstrate that the fanbase won't accept female space marines then I think they'd have limited it to the side story in the codex. Putting the femstodes into an episode of their animation is more serious and makes me think that GW really want them.
Amazon is so stupid, this one is such a nobrainer.
As a huge 40k fan i must say....
... I am relieved
Amazon and Games Workshop selling out and disrespecting fans of the universe happened.
The number of projects that went South on Prime...
I loved Into the Borderlands early on, ...went weird and discontinued. Rings of Power, Wheel of Time where everything went.belly up..
Omg WH40K, dear Lord that should be fan thru Netflix not Prime. It's as if they are trying to throw Spice Girls into the Grimdark.
We stand with Henry ! We all stand for WH40K as it was meant to be - Brutal with Integrity, crushing before it all that is woke ! For The Emperor ! Amazon's loss.
Amazon was only interested in a DEI production - and that would have been a disaster.
For the ONLY God Emperor and our savior Jesus Christ!
I'm actually glad Amazon doesn't have the rights to 40k, it would be a woke hot mess. I rather have no high budget show, if that show was going to be woke. Forget it Amazon.
Good, I'd rather nothing and keep reading books than have Amazon and the far-left ruin Warhammer for me.
Cavill needs to do a live action SPACE KING!
Edit: To be fair, there was a lot of degeneracy in The Boys comics
If they cant use it as a vehicle for THE MESSAGE then what is the point? They are certainly not there to make money.
Henry said "No I'm not defacing this franchise to fit an agenda" and Amazon got mad they can't keep destroying franchises for a corporate rating
40k that is true to it's origins, or Woke Wheel of Time, Halo, Tolkin... Feel sorry for Henry.
It's fine. I would rather see the IP retain what's left of it's already damaged integrity than to fall to whatever woke garbage they had in store for it in order to pander to "modern audiences". A lot of money has been left on the table though; 40k done right could be far bigger than Star Wars or the MCU. Oh well.
It hasn't been cancelled, Amazon and GW have until December to come to an agreement, which they probably will. This is normal with contracts involving an IP like Warhammer.
this is a great news actually lol. I'm starting to get extremely selective and cautious with this IP, esp from their latest blunder. If they move forward with DEI even deeper, they'll know what would happen. It's ignorant of them (which is not surprising btw) to even consider this implementation, considering how several franchise has suffered because of it.
Should have done Eisenhorn books into a movie trilogy.
As soon as they got rid of Henry, I stoped following updates, I completely forgot about this until your video just popped up
Someone from Netflix needs to approach Henry and say “please co direct warhammer 40k, we’ll do one season keeping it how you want it and see how it goes”
Woohoo! huge win in my opinion. eff letting Amazon get their grubbers on anything!
henry should do it himself, lowbudget like the old dr Who series. Would be better then ammazon version
Good I don't want know Halo series ..
The thing about live action , the actual actors try to be bigger then the actual characters & the story gets changed for a particular agenda..
Independent RUclipsrs who make simple lore videos or animations is good enough for me because they actually respect & love the story
Honor to you for helping his family.
Don't think I've ever watched an Amazon show. Can't name one... don't feel like I've missed out on anything.
Amazons stupidity, naivety and lack of vision knows no bounds. Hopefully another studio will go with this and let Henry do this his way. Top bloke!!
This will be our Cadia. The show broke before the fans could. 😂
Last I checked Cadia was a good thing
What I would love to see Henry in is an equivalent of the first season of True Detective, but with two agents of the inquisition. Techno-noir with some cosmic horror, doesn't have to be a huge budget and it would fit the ethos of the Eisenhorn books (even if it wasn't the Eisenhorn story).
i hope it get canceled and HBO or someone else can give games workshop and cavil freedoom to create what ever they want in the warhammer universe! and then they get to se the hit movie be huge! followed by a series doing well! My god id be happy!
