Well, heres what I think about a movie about Halo. If Bungie were to release the right to the license, and a movie company were to pick it up, they would have to go above and beyond the call of duty. They would have to make the movie so perfect or else it would make alot of people like me and possibly you very very upset. Also, the movie company would have to work side by side with Bungie to get the best results. I have an example. I have read the Lord Of The Rings books, and went to see the movies. I hated them because too much was cut from the books to make a movie. If a company would make a movie about Halo, I suggest they put every detail into it that was in the books and the games. If they did it right, they will have made one of the best movies, but if they do it wrong, it would totally suck and could devastate the Halo series. Those are my thoughts, what are yours?

A Halo movie, filled with good acting, premium special efx, and adhering to bungie and the fans point of view? I think it all depends on the director. If you had perhaps, sam raimi, or christopher nolan, than yeah, it might work. but if the producer that bought the script assigned someone like .... ah hell, i can never remember the bad directors names.... that visionless kitzch-master that did resident evil, and house of the dead....... then i would have to find a surplus amount of military grade explosive and gather all the celluloid together and make myself a physics experiment.

yeah, pretty much... and all of what you two said is why there probably wont be a movie... Bungie, and the rest of us still in pain from the Mario movie, know that no-one could make a Halo movie good enough...

people have different views on "perfect" mind you, and many a halo fan's view is decidedly low-brow.

Apparently, preliminary disscussions have been in the works (meaning REALLY early in the game) with none other than Ridley Scott!
