I just want him to do the first movie over again. Ive read the book and while it was a pioneer I dont love it.

I'm sorry to say it but I do want the movie of the Cadian 8th fighting the Tyranids over again just bigger, better and more hardcore. Sometimes I want dumb shooting and explosions war movies without the emotional weight of knowing that the people being shot probably didnt want to be at war either.

Thats why I love Battle for Los Angeles. Theres no "bad guys are people too".
