Oh, sorry mustafaibqal. I just posted before I read your little outburst about how much we were looking into it. Anyway that's my two cents, I'm going to bed (I live in Oz), and you yanks should have hours ago.

chalk faced Goon, I see what you're also trying to say. But i never said that we nothing to lose even if it sucked. I know this topic is intense. But look at it this way: we're thinking of "what if visions" more likely to be said---statements. We're being pesimistic. Instead, we should try being more optimistic like theodore roosevelt. I see the "cons" or problems you've stated. Now for the branching out part of the plot is all Bungie's problem. It's not really a problem but think of it as a more indepth challenge. products might be prolonged due to such a challenge. this part is true...but we have imagineers. They've invented Halo and they know their own priorities. So just leave them. I see yuo have concerns on teh Bungie team...

Hey I also have to sorry chalk faced goon. Your thing came in when I was wrtting my thing up. I think Bungie should put a little light that tells when a person has put something up in the forum. Sorr y man. Where's Oz? I live in saudi Arabia but I go to an American school. It's really cool back here. Really scary living in a world of terrorists. especially when Iraq is right above my head!

A live action halo movie is possible. No one though that LOTR could be done for years and lo and behold we got us an oscar winner right here. So yeah my point is anything these days can be done with film.

I cant see Halo 1 being turned into a movie, its just to "gameish", if anyone understand what I mean by that.
Halo 2 seems to have potential to be made into a movie though (think Indenpendence day with MC)
But I've just read "Fall of Reach" and think a movie based mostly on that book would be great. The whole book is just screaming to be turned ino a movie.
I would give anything for a Halo movie with the same feel as Alien 2(Aliens) and/or Indenpendence Day.
With a great director like James Cameron, Roland Emmerich or maybe Steven Spielberg, a huge budget and a cast of some good+unknown actors it could easily be the best movie based off a book based off a game :). The story is lightyears away from crap like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter and even Resident Evil.
But i'd rather no movie at all than a badly done one...

Yeah Re, FF, and Mortal Combat Kinda sucked( I thought Re was kinda kewl) We are talking about HALO. Halo Is different. I agree with whoever said that there was a perfect person for the part of MC, he is just hidden right now. I am getting some friends of mine to talk on this forum too so we will see some new people soon, And just for the hell of it, I live in america.

Thanks Ropie man. I looked into the contact link there's nothing about a Bungie e-mail contact. Just a contact for bugs and stuff and that's not going to help very much. I'm going to do some more research on this webstie. Okay so hand on for a few minuites

Me and my friends have been wanting a Halo movie for some time now. They would have to follow the to the almost exact to make a great movie. And it should come out in a quadrilogy like alien. You know, Fall of Reach, The Flood, First Strike, and Halo 2. Then that would really rule.

Yeah No problem. I agree with most of your opinions anyway. If you are trying to contact bungie, at the bottom of the page there is a CONTACT US option. Do you really Live in saudi araibia? that would kick major ass. I have never been out of the US.(not to go off the subjecyt or anything.)heh

look dudes here is what i think
there is far 2 much story line to cram in to a movie so what about a cg series like they madefor starship troopers i dont no about u but i really enjoyed that and i think it would work well with halo because u could start right at the begining of the story an go all te way through every eppisode a little battle etc....
this in my opinion would rule

YES! of coarse ive been waiting for a halo movie for a long time. I agree that hollywood ruin it like they did with mortal kombat, resident evil, final fantasy(which i didnt even watch it was so bad) and tomb raider. many of them groundbreaking games. so the best bet is for a director that has read the books played the games, knows the storyline inside and out and is smart enough to put vin deisel or kurt russul as mc/

Hey Ropie man... I do live in saudi. but it isn't much fun. I mean we got saudi military division all over the place. i wish I was in the U.S. Will be moving next year. But more about the contact thing...If the moderator is part of the bungie community then perhaps he or she's a valuable source of info. remember the face to face thing we were talking about...Well we are the most famous forum in this bungie network place. As I said I'm still searching. Guys Hollywood isn't just a single company that does movies. I mean Hollywood is an area where block busters hit the screens and there are a few movie comapnies there but it's also a get away for famous stars. But hollywood companies wouldn't make much of a halo producer. No way. Forget about everything you've heard from anybody...from south park to anime...forget about other creators of movies and stars. Microsoft and Bungie are all we need. To prove my point MICROSOFT HAS DONE MANY GAMES INCLUDING THE AGE OF EMPIRES SERIES AND AGE OF MYTHOLOGY. BUT IF YOU'VE SEEN THE SCENERY PRODUCED AND GRAPHICS AND EXTRA VISULIZUATIONS LIEK MINI MOVIES...IN OTHER WORDS BUNGIE AND MICROOSFT ARE THE BEST DUO or DUET for this type of musical. ALL THAT WAS FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE.

IF YOU GUYS HAVE SEEN HARRY POTTER THE GUY THAT PLAYS THE PART FOR HARRY WAS CHOSEN WELL ALMOST UNEXPECTEDLY. SEE J.K. ROWLING WALKS INTO THIS CAFE PLACE OR RESTURANT. THEN SHE SPOTS THIS KID ON A STOOL WITH SOME FREINDS. THIS KID HAD HAIR UP TO HIS SHOULDERS BUT SHE SAW RIGHT THROW THAT I GUESS. SHE'S LIKE IT YOU HARRY! (She started crying and stuff, J.K. Rowling is a sissy, reality check). Anyways see how the perfect ACTOR came into best fit. Don't worry about Bungie having trouble finding a person. There's omeone out there ready to be picked for the part.

THE ALIEN QUADTRILOGY OR WHAT EVER IT'S CALLED NEVER TURNED OUT RIGHT. THE LAST MOVIE WAS VERY DISTURBING...VERY DISTURBING...BUT THE FACT REMAINS...Halo is unique and might continue for sometime so there might be more then 4 movies. I mean they are making more of the star wars and jurassic park. Disney doesn't do much of trilogies and stuff...oh well " ).

Okay, here goes. Halo kicks ass but companies are all about $$ (dolla bills y'all). Release HALO2. In a few years, as sales slump (yes years, look at HALO1s longevity). Release the movie based on the first games. (I just heard of the books a couple days ago, please be kind, apparently I've spent the last five years in a dungeon). That would spark interest in the first game for all the HALO virgins ($$), and make them want to buy the second game to see what happens next ($$). It would keep the HALO paradise alive forever!!

i think if thay make a moovie at all then it should be about "the fall of reach". i dont think one about "the flood" would be a very good moovie. only the books that the games arent about would be good.
