If one was to make a Halo Movie, how would you want it to be like? Do you want it to be based exactly like the game, or based loosely around it or a new adventure or to have it totally different?

Personally, I would like it to be based around the game, with all the same characters but a few differences here and there. It wouldn't be much of a movie if it was EXACTLY like the game because Master Chief doesn't say much at all.
"understood"
"How much time was left?"
"Relax, I dont want to tick this thing off"

a movie based on the Eric Nylund books, would be best i would think. All comic/hero movies start with some sort of origin, and it's a story we haven't already played through. Great concepts and universe development, explanation and build up of the game series' story arc, and the imagintive interpretation of the film director still would leave a lot of territory to explore and yet not ruin the franchise.

I want a short bit of the movie to take place during FoR to explain the Spartan Program and the battle of reach and all. But that shouldn't be more than 15 min at the MOST. Then it should fast forward to Halo CE. Only it focuses more on Sargeant Johnson and the marines, because we don't want just a clone of the game, though the Chief would still be there at times.

In my opinion, the movie should still focus mainly on Master Chief only because that's the character everyone identifies Halo with. For the people who aren't huge Halo fans, they equate Halo with that man in shining green armor. While we know that Halo is about more than just the Master Chief, they don't, and we want the movie to appeal to everybody.

Besides, we all love John, don't we?

Finish The Fight

How about 'other' I personaly think it would be sick if they made a whole series of movies. Starting with the books as a sort of intro to the story then moving on through all of the games. They need to turn Halo into our generations Star Wars, although i know it is already is for us who rep Xbox.

I think they should do it based around the Halo wars that is coming out in 08. That way there can be more to the stoy than one person killing every thing in sight. That way they can also get more battles in the moive..

Fun fact: While these people tend to use the term leet, or "1337" to describe something elite (or really, really cool) it really means "I'm a dumbass who doesn't know how to write in English. Please kill me."

Fall Of reach Film FTW!

Anything other than the 1st Halo movie being The Fall of Reach would be a huge dissapointment to me. I really think that if the movies are done, they need to follow the books instead of the games.

I think it should be based on 'The Fall of Reach'. It was an excellent read, has enough momentum and drama to be a movie. Plus, if a sequel were to ever come about, there would be plenty of room for story since you'd pretty much be starting from the beginning.
That's just my opinion.
