in the reach trailer it shows the glssing of reach. in the book it took about 8 minutes to beat the unsc and glass the planet. So the trailer was sped up to show what happens in the entire encounter at reach. i believe this for one reason because multiple times u can here someone who i believe is fred saying things such as
"Were coming in hot"
"we just lost our bird"
"I just dropped of my men"
"weve been overun well hold this position as long as we can"

in the book all these quotes happened about a minute from eachother, in the trailer only about a second

I make a legitimate thread on the most logical choice for the next Bond actor, and you take that away from me by creating a parody thread indirectly connecting my thread to yours.

I hope your kids have bad influences and develop bad personalities. I wish this with all my heart.

I don't think an 8 minute trailer would have been practical.

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

Really? I thought Reach fell in 1 minute and 17 seconds.

That fact that you couldn't tell he was being sarcastic states loads about your intelligence.
Unless you did know, in which case, you need to work on your grammar.

Because Muslims surgically implant organic bombs in their testicles, which in turn will be injected into women during sex, which will grow into BABY BOMBS!

Took about 2 hours actually.

Depends on if you include the part where Red Team hides in CASTLE Base for a few days.

Wherever you roam
so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

2 hours and 20 until the battle in space was lost, forces on the ground could have held out longer though.

Okay, now look: I'm going to make 2 statements. They have the same meaning, but one uses better grammar, while the other doesn't.

Statement 1: "ODST r awesome n fun I like it"
Statement 2: "ODST is awesome! It's fun, and I like it."

Which one is more respectable, can be easily read without having to carefully examine the writing, and makes the writer appear smart, and not like an egotistical douche?

If writing proper English is such a waste of your time, why do you even bother writing? Why not just take an extra minute and hold the shift key, full type out a 3-character word, or check your spelling? Have you ever seen a mod state that someone "r gun b band?"

Take the time and use grammar. For the sake of everyone taking the time to read your post.
