Halo Movie

[nev670]

Neon Genesis Evangelion? what's that?

You guys realize the only thing Peter Jackson did that was any good was take any already amazing storyline written by an excellent fantasy writer, and then just attempt to stay true and make it a movie.

King Kong wasn't good.

So stop giving him a free pass with this Halo non-sense.

Oh geez, Doom, now that was just horrible. The actor was alright but really, I just don't think that a Halo movie could turn out great or good for that matter. I mean, you are right, the transition from first person/in-game experience to third person will be weird...Doom...ugh.

Maybe one of the few.
It just wasn't for some people.
Personally, I thought it was a masterpiece.

[nev670]

yea, me too, but i hate the part where they talk about an allspark, TOTALLY OFF TOPIC , . . . but not totally :/

Not really,
the allspark is the center of the whole story lol.
Megatron came to earth tracking the allspark and got frozen in the arctic circle(still not sure how, though)
Then the autobots came in search of the glasses that belonged to Archibald Witwicky, because it had the location of the allspark etched into them, because he accidentally activated Megatron's navigations system, and that's where Sam comes in.
The whole battle revolves around the allspark, considering it created the 'transformers'.

So no where near off topic

[nev670]

lol, sorry, i meant the connection to the storyline of the cartoon xD

[STD_NotOnLeo]

my only fear is that they will come out with an "Official Game of the Movie" since im going to assume they will not go on any plots in-game since that kind of defeats the purpose of them.

off topic: i love DBZ, and i have no faith in the movie lol. they are going off of the beginning of DBZ if i remember right, and frankly ive seen the cartoon...what will the movie enhance other than bad acting, bad voicing xD, and did i mention bad acting?!

I didn't like it either, the screen work was rather shoddy when it came to the fight scenes. Shia isn't that great of an actor, really. I could go on forever about it. But eh, it was an alright movie, nothing fancy.

--So off topic--

There is not going to be a release date from Bungie.
Bungie paid the producers quite an amount of money to
make this movie, the producers will give the official release date
if it's still going.
Which I'm pretty sure it is.


It better kick ass, I've seen a couple of previews of it, it looks pretty sick.

Back when this was first announced two trailers were shown. (Three if you count part 1 and 2 of the second as 2 trailers.)


The First:
This trailer made me feel disappointed inside. Mainly because of lack of action and no real cool factor. The pink blast next to the guy who doesn't flinch is also idiotic.

The Second:
This one I like more. For one it shows more of the action that you'd expect from the Halo series and also has a very gritty feel to it. More like a war flick from way back when. (There's also a good deal of information about the movie in the description.)

yea, it gets better, but the first trailer is just. . . a trailer, doesnt HAVE to show action but it showed they at least used the same guns and stuff

Never seen the second one there, thanks for turning my attention to it.
I hope that the text they use in the beginning isn't the final text used...
Cyan? Really? Arial? Come on...

Oh, and sound quality??

I almost came when I saw Sierra 117, then I almost cried when we didn't get to see him.

gawd you're an ignorant idiot, he made two of the best cult gore films ever. basically everything he did before lord of the rings was genius. Besides he's an amazing Director before writer, though i don't like the films he did an amazing job of adapting the books to film.

I was just about to comment on the text choice. Hahah, that is what made me question if that is a real trailer to the movie. I figured that the text choice they would have used would match the Halo logo/insignia to a point, you know? Not just some typical Arial font colored cyan.

EDIT: Also, how can you say this or that movie is worse compared to the Halo one? Both the Halo and Warcraft movies aren't even out, what is there to compare? Point simply is, they will both suck.

~Tsugomaru

Battlefront 1 and 2, Jedi Knight series, KOTOR 1 and 2, and the Force Unleashed should be great.

Also Star Wars Galaxies was a decent MMO.

Exactly,
I mean I have the Halo 3 font for my computer...
Why couldn't the same be true for the MOVIE PRODUCERS. lol.
Possible fake?
But really well made.

See how far rumors spread?

I've talked to the bungie music producer directly because...well I know him...and get rich off of it too.

If you knew a Bungie movie producer you would know that there wont be a Halo 4. Theres going to be Halo Wars and there will also be a new game coming out this winter, starting off a new chapter(s) in the series.

Halo 3 was "Finish the Fight" because it signified the end of that chapter(s). (Halo is also a book series)

Also, they were supposed to make the Halo movie but no one would put money into and people didnt want to participate. If you saw 'Halo: Landfall', it was pretty much a trailer for this movie.
