It's rare to have an iconic jay tweet. Psychologically there's much to make of having an isolated browser window for just twitter

Hmm? Just seems like he's saying he's not going to bother to do any other social media and he doesn't care if he's still on twitter.

Though I don't know crap, I never made a twitter account.

They fired Henry Cavill from The Witcher because he kept fighting behind the scenes to keep the show faithful to the books, recast the role with an arguably bigger name actor, and this is how they're advertising the new season which they filmed with Cavill before they fired him.

I don't think the cavill allegations were anything more substantial than him vaguely being a toxic gamer bro (arguably this was the negative gloss they put on him wanting the show to be faithful to the source material). If I've missed more specific crimes I apologize please don't explode at me there are too many to keep track of

All the stories I'm aware of were just him and the showrunner fighting about the show.

From what I have read he wasn't doing pervert poo poo but being a prick apparently, especially to women on staff. Seems like its all just rumors though so who knows?

no, the showrunners and writers got real sick of him challenging them on their deviations from the books. they got tired of his protests over amazing ideas like "lets just kill eskel for no reason" and "lol what if the nilfgaardians had armor that looks like nutsacks"

Judging on how bad everything looked for Rings of Power, you’ll be lucky to get space marines in the dinky armor of something like Starship Troopers.

At least it was on purpose in that film.

well yeah, when the writers are actively deriding the source material and killing off characters so they can put more original characters into the show, its not going to be good.

A few years ago I probably would have said you could adapt some of the better 40k novels.

But then they started releasing 1 trillion 40k games and having sampled a few of them, there's a lot of evidence that no one can tell a remotely good story in the setting in a visual medium

also for 40k the best bet for a warhams series is to stitch all the cinematics from that space marine game

No there's tons of stuff they could do, but if it's live action it just can't be about Space Marines. There's a reason the Eisenhorn books come up as a possible thing to be adapted all the time, they'd be perfect to be turned into a TV show.

Warhammer could be an intensely awesome show/movie, if they really lean in to how deeply hosed humanity is and the absurdist humor of the whole situation. (Like, have an episode that follows a platoon of Imperial Guard who are hopelessly outmatched by a single chaos demon, but though sheer wit and determination they find a way to kill it. Then, immediately after their victory a backup ship finally arrive, but it's full of Inquisitors who immediately merc all of the survivors.) Like, an ideal Warhammer series would have different main characters each episode, and at the end of that episode they would be dead (or worse).

Unfortunately, 90% of the Warhammer fiction out there takes everything way too goddamned seriously and wants to make the child soldier mutant fascist Space Marines into the actual heroes of the story.
