Which content management system for a game fansite?

    I'm going to create a website around a famous game. I expect to have around 50k UV a month in about a year or half.

    I'm looking for a suitable CMS for my needs, which are:
    - I need a news homepage
    - I need a forum board
    - I need the CMS to be SEO friendly
    - IT HAS TO BE NOT VURNUABLE TO HACKER ATTACKS
    - Ability to add articles
    - Ability to add videos
    - Ability to add social features (I LIKE IT etc.)

    I am taking Wordpress (with thesis theme) and Joomla into consideration.
    If Joomla, which theme should I use?

    If wordpress, how to create a nice forum board? Maybe I should use other script on a forum subdomain? WILL THIS NOT CREATE DUPLICATE CONTENT PROBLEM IF I WOULD MOVE ARTICLES FROM FORUM TO MY WEBSITE?

    Maybe you know some other CM systems that I should consider?

    PLEASE HELP ME! Thanks in advance for all useful posts!

    Yes, I recommend you use Joomla too. However, Joomla can take you time and cost to make a great theme but Joomla seems not doing SEO well.

    Drupal should satisfy most of your requirements.
