..............wow..............
im impressed that they had this much control over hollywood. Of course id be upset if it was any different. Yeah ive always wondered what they're gonna do about a halo movie, whether it was just going to be allowed to a film company or made themselves i didnt know. Now that i do know that it will be both i rest assured. Atleast it doesnt sound like its gonna be another Resident Evil: Apocalypse. It sounds like its gonna be possibly Academy award worthy. lol and thats just going off of what theyve given us so far..... omg i just realized they may very well split the movie into two and release them like 5 months from each other like the Matrix movies so they can fit in ALL the detail and story and info and whatnot and NOT TELL US. man can u imagine the universal uproar if they put another Halo2 ending drop off on this movie and release the finally a little later? I actaully liked the cliff hanger from Halo2 but most people over the world absolutely hated it which is being selfish.

Yeah i just google News on Halo Movie and they all seem to be saying expected release for 2007. That was expected before this but they also all seem to be saying that Microsoft will release Halo 3 the same time the Movie will come out. I mean thats 2 years away!! Yeah i would like Halo3 to be "finished" and well done when it comes out but i WANT TO PLAY THE DAM GAME!!! and stingy bill gates got all our hopes up by saying it will come out next spring with the PS3. But yeah, im just starting rumors here but i will further wait until an actaull Announcement is released saying that "Yeah we are making Halo 3" then we can all speculate.

Personally, I don't care who plays MC. I just hope they use the same voice and stuff. And please don't ruin h3 by using any cutscenes from the movie or junk like that. I think that the games should not be affected by the movies in the least. Unless of course, the movie blows away the world, then maybe ya. But don't use jackson. I love his work and think he's awesome, but we'd hafta wait through kong and hobbit and anything else since he's just becoming bigtime.

Just do me one favor. Put the Drinol in the movie. Please. Pretty please? Or at least in Halo 3. Please again?

Haha.

You guys rock my world. No. Better. Game. Studio.

Viva la Bungie.

Well, seeing as how I've been dead set against a movie from the beginning this isn't the best news. But who am I kidding, I'll go and see it twenty times while wearing MJOLINR armour anyways. Reading that article has give me some measure of faith in the project and a slightly more optomistic outlook.

BUT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD SELL ME A COPY OF THE COMPANION BOOK I'LL GIVE YOU MY WIFE AND CHILDREN. THEY WOULD MAKE GOOD SLAVES FOR FRANKIE.

Well, I just really hope it doesn't turn out as the other American video-game movies, for they were all huge disappointments(understatement).

I hope Bungie and their Hollywood friends do a good job, but.....

I have strange feeling that this movie is going to be a great disappointment. The movie shouldn’t come out until 2009 because 2007 would only give them two years. Making movies takes a LONG time and to make them good takes even longer.

This just my opinion.

P.s I’m very worried, lol!

I'd have to agree, but I think that just about everyone is worried about this movie.

I wonder if they can get everything in that they want to get in. I hope you dont -blam!- up. Although I have a great deal of faith in Bungie.

its going to suck (im ganna watch it) but its going to suck....everyone knows that movies that are based on games turn out to suck...so dont spend too much money on the face makeup and nice effects....+ its going to be all realalistic so its ganna look weird and I bet its ganna have unknow actors with bad acting....

It's probably going to be in live action, and then some of the props will be in CG, based on Bungie's discription of the movie status so far.

Wow you guys at Bungie sure are ambitious. I am happy to see a movie under way, but I fear for it's, I don't know the right word, (safety? well-being?) but I would like to point out that a movie on the first game will be hard to pull off. Look at the halo novel, The Flood, It was aimed at telling the story of the first game, however it just came out to be underwhelming. I know Bungie hasn't told us what the movie will be about but a 1.5 to 2 hour movie needs to have some depth to it. It can't just be the slaughter fest that is halo. II trust that everyone at your company has a role in making it well done, I just hope they do their job nicely.
