Free 4K (for now) and 1 day shipping means I'm more likely to cancel Netflix than Prime.

Amazon and Games Workshop have confirmed they're working on TV shows and movies based on Warhammer 40,000. The news comes 12 months after the two sides reached an agreement in principle to develop adaptations of the miniature wargame for big and small screens.

The companies have now inked a full agreement, which gives Amazon the exclusive rights to develop films and TV shows based on the intellectual property. In turn, the adaptations could help Games Workshop attract new Warhammer 40K tabletop players.

Games Workshop says an "elite band" of screenwriters is coming together to create the shows and movies. Assisting them will be Henry Cavill, a long-time Warhammer 40K fan, who will be an executive producer and perhaps star in some of the TV shows and films.

Don't expect to see a Warhammer movie hitting Prime Video anytime soon, though. As Games Workshop notes, it typically takes at least a couple of years for a project to go from the development phase to something you can actually watch. Still, the ball is officially rolling on Amazon's Warhammer adaptations. Games Workshop says it will share some details about what's in store as soon as it's able.

I watched (well tried) candy cane lane. Love Eddie Murphy and a good old family Christmas film, but well I thought it was gooseberry fool and not very funny at all :slol:

But maybe I’m getting old..

Instead I switched to Disney+ and watched Jingle All The Way which I think is a fantastic Christmas film from start to finish :wub:

I really hope Amazon fail with this bollocks. Because otherwise the other streaming services will end up copying them. :dread:

They're just slowly eroding all the benefits streaming sites offered over satellite TV.

I think with more and more people stop/starting subscriptions as content becomes available the next thing to go will be the ability to cancel anytime. Or maybe not explicitly, maybe they'll increase the price but offer discounts if you commit to 3/6/12 months.

Yep.

Amazon is also going to be able to hide a lot of this. Lots of people will carry on with Prime because they like the free delivery etc.

I've got Prime, but I don't really use any of the services other than delivery.

I did watch some old episodes of Eurotrash on it over Christmas though.

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

I genuinely try and avoid Amazon as they have enough money but completely get why people use them.

I'm actually not that much a fan of there website I really don't like how they list a lot of stuff.

In amongst the random stuff Amazon keeps hoovering up? Every season of Eurotrash.

Why do you hate the term? It perfectly encapsulates what it is.
