If they did make a movie, I'd definitely go see it, hell I'd buy it
but I would like to see a little more from the Covenant perspective if they made one, like in The Flood, from Spec Ops Zuka 'Zamamee's POV, that type of thing

There is no way that they could pull off a Hole live action movie....If there were to be a movie it would have to be compleatley computere generated. If live actors were even atempted to be used i think that all of us Halo fans would be greatly dissapointed. Final Fantasy wasnt that gerat of a movie but maby a lot more effort would go into something as big as a Halo movie.

no way! what would be the point?
it would just be the same as the games.
and if it went further than the games i would get mad because the movie could just be the next game.

the point would be to see the game with stuff that they might have left out.

It'd be good if they used the planned halo 2 graphics in a CG like with realistic vehicle damage and everything. If you haven't already check out the halo 2 renders.

I don't know if entirely CG is such a good idea. Since MC always wears his armor, the actor in it doesn't neccesarily have to do the voice. And they can always use special effects ya know.

it would be awsome to make a halo film, i mean come on, lokk at AVP, anyone who has liked aliens and predator are gunna love da movie, now look at halo, anyone who likes da game truly would be bedazzled by the fact that a movie would be made after it, i mean, all the speciall effects, cool enemies, dramatic storyline, i mean comeon, what more would u want in a film.....plus, it would ring in more cash for bungie..and we know thats always a good thing :)

did anybody even read the thing at the beginning of this thread about not saying stuff like "yeah i agree with you". You are supposed to explain what you are agreeing with and why and stuff like that.

now getting to the right subject,,,I thinka halo movie would be perfect as long as it was CG(for those confused out there,computer generated). Anime i think would look goofy because anime is japanese and xbox is the one american game console. Actors would be kinda weird too because there is not all that many people in the story that would need an actor(Spartans, Keyes, Marines). CG is just the way to go.

As for what it should be based on: I think they should do ,as other people before me have said, the movie based on the books. They should do a movie per book, or a mini series, which was also said by someone earlier in the here awesome thread.

As for the people that said it will suck because no games gone movie have ever been good. It is HALO we are talking about. IT CAN'T BE BAD. it is physically impossible for something semi-affiliated with HALO to be bad. If you think dif you can suck my ****.

Oh yeah i found this awesome thing that the future movie makers of this game should get ideas from: http://www.mindistortion.neoburn.net/iwantyoursoul/?i_am=brib edmule

i agree, a movie would have to be totaly cg, but thats not so hard, look at shrek, no actors the major problem would be a storyline and what mc will look like.

i'd have to say, that even though if they followed thre storyline perfectly, had seamless graphics, and the voices were done perfectly, it would still be a complete pile of crap, you cant make a movie out of halo, its to far-fetched; religous aliens, creepy resident evil style things...i mean, in the game, MC doesn't even talk that much, and if they could make up a script for him it would just be weird. its not the sort of thing that you would go to the movies to see, but perfect for a console game, because since there is so much interaction the story seems real enough, but when you just watch it it doesn't seem real, i mean, how many movies are there about the last genetically engineered soldier escaping from a planet trying to lead a religous crazed alien race away form earth and coming across a strange ring, battleing them and one person killing about a thousand aliens? its just too surreal.

that is not true. Have you ever read the halo books? probably not. Then you would know that theres a lot more to talk about in the halo universe than a strange ringworld and some guy in green armor who can kill hundreds of aliens without dying.

There should be a Halo movie, but you have to have, like the Bungie writers do all the story and scripts. That way it would be authentic. I think that maybe it should be based on the books or something because we all know everything about the games, that way it would be more fresh. ROCK ON!

Hey legoman that may not be true think of the 929 who voted and of that number only like 70 percent said yes. then Bungie will have to think of the profit of making such a movie on a game like halo. that would be high risk investment inwhich bungie would have to be entirely sure would take such a plunge. unless microsoft said to do then with backing of mico. they would likely do so. then there is the risk of a cheaply put together film. Thus killing some profit. as you see i am neither aganst or for the movie but literally bideing my time tell halo 2 is released. Ah yes and please tell your mom to suck your **** no matter how miniscule
Below was posted by legoman i screwed up the quote

I think you guys should stop being a bunch of -blam!-. You know a Halo Movie would rock, CG or even Live Action. If Bungie did make a movie they would have control over it becuz there smart like that, they aren't gonna take the license to one of the best selling videogames ever and just give complete control to some random movie production. If Bungie decides to make a movie i would say Go for it cuz if it doesn't turn out perfect oh well you'll still have all your fans (especially cuz of Halo 2 im come on), if it does then guess what, you've got one kick ass movie

a halo movie in my eyes would be animated (cartoon) not cartooney but it would be cool if they made it off the books, emphasis on the third one like not saturday cartoon but princess mononoke kind of animation (for all you guys out ther who dont know what im talking about go to http://www.princess-mononoke.com/ go to flash site and look at media,
Quicktime required.) and should have the voices be done by actors who did the voices in the game. Because i can really picture an animated halo: first strike movie.

i agree, they should be based on the books .i think that in the movie it was 3D. i like the cg idea, but it would be better if it was 3rd person . that is awsome
