lol, very nice. My three favorite stations: Adult Swim (not cartoon network itself, sometimes it can be really stupid. Toonami is probably the only thing bareable for me on that network), Comedy Central, and Sci-Fi. Sometimes I watch The History Channel when I'm bored and nothing better's on.

Sheesh, I just went over to the Halo 2 speculation post at New Mombosa and there's over 7,000 speculation posts over there! I was surprised. I personally try not to sepculate because it'll eventually end up to what I WANT to happen instead of what I'm gona get. That could ruin the game for me. I try to keep an open mind and expect a great game that'll live up to my expectations from Bungie.

.......

But sometimes I cant help but think what the story and everything else about the game is going to be like. It's just too exciting a game not to think about!

When school does start, you can expect me on this thread AT THE LEAST every weekend until Halo 2 comes out. That's at the least. I'll most likely keep coming on and discussing the game with you guys and keep on discussing the proposition of a Halo movie. We got some really intriguing stuff to look forward to in the future!

Damnit, the reason why the Halo 2 speculation thread will always have more posts than this one is because speculating on a game like Halo 2 can output A LOT of different and interesting replies. The thing about our thread is that we've already talked about the Halo Movie to its limit. In the next couple of days I'll prob go through ALL of these post and make a summary of some positive and negative ideas about the game, compile them, and post the collective thoughts everyone had on this thread. All we need to do now is think of a really well qualified cast and type out some good ideas for a Halo screenplay. There's our movie! lmao

ok then. I really don't know alot of acotrs, i just pay attention to the movie itself. All i no is that I wasnt every actor From ALIEN2's marine team in the HALO movie man. theres my 2 cents.

Yes, yes ahem. I concur. But I will compile all the ideas in a couple of days. If we want a movie, we should show Bungie we want one outright! We can show them out ideas of what would make and break this movie. If we start this idea off ourselves and show Bungie we're serious, then they could really take notice.

Sounds good. We need a good marine team to ally with the spartans - hey, where's Crazy? He should be here discussing with us? And I havent directly talked to Waffle yet either. They should make us Moderators of this thread, lol.

Okay, there's just too many posts (47 pages!!!) to read them all, so I hope I'm not repeating anything that's already been said, but I think a Halo movie would rock so long as 1) Hollywood doesn't try to overhaul the look of the world of Halo, 2) They don't show the Master Chief's face, 3) They don't let that dumbass Paul W. S. Anderson get his slimy little hands on it.

One thing I've noticed is that when video games are made into movies, somewhere along the line the studio decides that they don't want to cater to the fans (the only people who will watch it), and instead opt to change EVERY ASPECT of the original concept. For example: Tomb Raider, Resident Evil, Street Fighter, Super Mario Bros., Mortal Kombat, Final Fantasy, and every other movie based on a video game have completely destroyed and rebuilt everything that makes the game what it is. In Final Fantasy, they took out Chocobos, Moogles, magic spells, summons, interesting characters, a fantasy setting, and everything else that makes a Final Fantasy game what the fans have grown to love. In Resident Evil, the character Alice is some stupid -blam!- Hollywood made up who has nothing to do with the games. The zombie's origins are changed, along with the way they look and behave. The mansion looks more like an office building out of 'The Matrix', with lasers and talking holograms, and other crap that has absoutely nothing to do with ANY Resident Evil game!

My point (if it isn't already clear) is that in order to make a GOOD Halo movie, they can't stray far from the original look and mood of the games, along with not adding stupid new characters or making Master Chief's suit purple with some shoulder mounted poison-tipped shiruiken launcher he uses to take down genetically altered communist dinosaurs.

On second thought, don't make a Halo movie. Hollywood will ruin it and I will be very, very pissed off.

lol, after 47 pages of posts, you (for the most part) have repeated what so many have already said. It's alright though. At least we know the majority is on the same page towards a Halo Movie. But the majority also thinks a Halo Movie should happen just with everything under Bungie's control and people like us (the Halo community) involved in some of the ideas.

What I've got so far.

-CG; yes
-VinDiesel; NO, emphatically so...
-Bungie has all or most of the say in making it.

And that is the basic feeling for the entire forum. Side Notes

-Hollywood sucks and so does StarWars II
-ILM should do the special effects, (my opinion)
-Some think the movie would suck because of certain directors I won't mention
-Some say it would suck because Hollywood would get there grubby hands on it
-Some just think it would suck just coz... (they suck in my opinion)
-One person said he was gathering details and all to get Bungie's attention... (that's not going to happen...)
-Hollywood will buy the rights to the movie (for an amazing amount of money, I might add) and they will butcher the plot, characters, storyline, and... all of it, alive, in it's own gory misery...

Facts suck... Just like the ones I stated... Unless... A whole bunch of people get together, mass money, buy the rights, and the most badass movie of all time. (And a lot of money) Trust me, fellow fan(atic)s, it would take but one person to lead an effort like this, and a whole potload of fans... But it could be done... That's my say.
