Ork Big Shoota (August 3, 2006)

[Stormrage]

It also makez it kustom!

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

You have some Poser models for eldar?

Yes...............

 

[Goldflash]

EEEELLLLVVEEESSS IINNNNN SPAAAAAAAACEEEEE!

Stupid Space elves. Why they are redoing their codex before the Ork codex I don't know.

 

[Kyriakos]

Are all orc wh40K unit names pronounced as if they are something out of east london working class pubs?
Are there no plans for an "orc phenomenological ontologist"?

 

[aaglo]

Yes, because orks/orcs are from England...

 

[Plotinus]

That was something that amused me about the Lord of the Rings films too. All of the orcs and associated creatures have strong London accents, compared to the fairly neutral accents of everyone else, apart from the amusingly Welsh dwarfs. (Couldn't quite understand why the hobbits' accents varied from Somerset to Glasgow, but there you go.)

 

[Stormrage]

Hm.. didn`t some orcs speak as aussies/new z-s? The blue guy that chases Merry and Pip into Fangorn Forest?

 

[Goldflash]

Orks have Cockney Accents, becasue they hate the letter 'H'.

 

[beboy]

Woah! I love this unit!!

 

[Plotinus]

[Stormrage] No, that blue guy was definitely a Londoner. In fact I'm pretty sure I've seen a few people like him hanging around Surrey Quays.

 

[Stormrage]

Oh, OK then, I must`ve mixed something up

Long live Green! Long live king aaglo, the stuntie oonit maker!

`E makez orks! `E iz da Great Kreeaytor!

 

[mrtn]

A lot of the orcs were played by NZ army, maybe that's what you're thinking of, Stormrage?

Not that it has anything to do with WH40k orks, of course.

 

[Plotinus]

Yes, many of the orcs were local extras (I used to live in the part of New Zealand where they hired them). But the voices were all provided by voiceover artists. Andy Serkis, who played Gollum, did quite a few orc voices too, I think.

But enough of this digression!
