That was quite amusing. :)
Great comedic timing, and adorable drawings.

Wow

It was amazing. I don't think I've ever seen something so epic achieved in a mere flash movie haha.
I LOVE it.

hmMMMMMMMMmmmmm

There were a couple good ones.
The thing is the sense of humor kind of bothers me.
The 40k universe is so badass, that it doesn't seem apt to lampoon it with such... SILLY jokes.

What I really would have preferred is a more faithful and serious tone.
That's not to say there shouldn't be HUMOR, but humor in the context of 40k would've been a lot better than pop culture references and just completely random references to completely random aspects of the universe.

I think if you wanted to make a collab that 40k fans would love, it should focus on what makes 40k so great and capitalize on that. Namely the dark, gothic, brutal tone. When you stretch the humor out to be so goofy, it just seems shallow and not a good representation of the universe.
So, when I'm watching it I'm just like... ugh... I think this is making me like 40k less.

Of course I wouldn't expect a collab on newgrounds to have fantastic humor, but in an ideal world... Just saying what I would like to see out of a 40k collab.

I guess the thesis of what I'm trying to say is, I think this would be a lot more enjoyable (especially to 40k fans), if the universe were treated with a little more reverence, and the humor and tone didn't stray too far from the canon. The type of self aware, pop culture humor in this movie totally demolishes the third wall, and it's just annoying to see beloved characters act like clowns.

When considering what kinds of things I would like to see in the 40 Universe, the last thing on my list would be Looney Toons, top 40 songs, etc.

The Johnny Utah clone (the blood raven and the eldar) at least wasn't an affront to my tastes, because it took place completely in the Warhammer Universe. It didn't break the third wall, and it didn't turn the characters into Goof Troop. All it did was exaggerate the personalities that we already know these characters to have, which is good way to make fun of the universe without ruining it.

Anyway, the collab wasn't bad by any means. It's par for the course for NG collabs, which is kind of the problem. This might as well be a pokemon collab or a smash brothers collab, just replace the characters, and change the subject to suit your needs (I kissed a Snorlax and I liked it).
Most of the jokes in this are interchangeable with any collab on any subject.

Anyway... I love the 40k universe and the idea of a collab about it really gets my pants tight. So, that's why I feel the need to go on about it. :)

Disregarding all that, there was some really nice art and some funny (if not very apropos) shorts, so GOOD JOB.

HIlarious

Very funny, clever concept, great animation, rock on.

Awesome

It was just really fantastic storytelling.
Impressive animation too!

A 40k collab?!

Next time invite me, I've been looking for an excuse to animate some 40k action. :P

Looking forward to it!

Indeed!

That is humorous.

Nice

That's looks difficult to animate!
It's very ambitious.. .You could do some really good stuff if you bother to clean it up, add sound, etc. :)

awesome!

Great work!
i loved the new stuff at the end.
The way all the machinery syncs up with the music is really nice.

Wow

The animation itself was faaaaaaantastic!
You've gotten quite good at it.

Also pretty funny.
