I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Umm, this is kind of old news (like 3 years old) but that movie got cancelled.

Ah, but it is you who's misinformed.
Halo movie

The Spielberg things have been just this month, and the project was never cancelled, just delayed for an unknown amount of time.

Ok, so it's DELAYED. It hasn't even been started yet, and they still don't even know if it ever will be started.

They have an unknown (but large) number of props, including a fully functional warthog, a script written by Stuart Beattie, and backing by Spielberg and Peter Jackson. This won't be too hard to get off the ground, considering the enormous Halo fanbase and the success of District 9.

BAM!!!!! you just got sniped!

speilberg shouldnt even be helping, im fine with peter jackson but not steven speilberg. besides, the only reason the movie did get delayed was because of district 9. the only reason the only reason they made district 9 was because something happend so they took all the money they were going to use for halo and used it for district 9

Oh, I just realized after reading that it is all up in the air, if you look, its unconfirmed whether Spielburg WILL get it, only that he WANTS to. And even IF he gets it, he still has to convince Dreamworks to work with him (though, come on, DREAMWORKS?).

I Love you. I thought it was cancelled. After reading up on it for like an hour I'm freakin hyped.
Just to know its not dead is enough to make me happy. To find out that Spielberg has take so much interest in the project makes me grin.

Keeping it simple...

The movie was originally going to be produced by Peter Jackson and directed by Neil Blokamp. If those two sound familiar together, it's because they just completed District 9 which is in theaters now. Jackson was originally going to have Blokamp direct a Halo film, but too many problems and stalemates arose and that got cancelled. That is when the pair decided to create a feature out of Neil's short film "Alive in Joburg" which became District 9.

Recently, Speilberg has expressed interest in making the Halo film a reality after being toyed with for so long. He's always had an interest in it (he's into video games!) and he's been in close with microsoft for a while *remember who was speaking on behalf of Project Natal?) It looks like Steven could be cooking up something as a producer and MAYBE director although I would like to see somebody else take the creative helm because I agree with a lot of other people.....Indy 4 was garbage.

Excited to see what comes of this!

Everyone agrees Indy 4 was complete and utter trash. And the only reason it was made, in my eyes, was because they were running low on money and decided a new Indy movie would be the trick, making it just because people would say oh yeah indy gonna go watch, and in turn even though it was awful it made millions.

Lets hope that he realizes that there are more die hard halo fans out there that would seek blood payment if it was screwed up in anyway, and that making this movie isn't just to make money but to bring what we all know and love to a large screen,
