Holy Moly, guys. If you're actually going to work on the movie with the commitment you described in this update, the commitment used to make LOTR and such, you will make the best movie ever.
I agree with the guy that posted right before me, Marty O'Donnel, and nobody else in the world has my permission to do Halo music. That guy before me said make stuff Computer Generated, but I don't really care. Live or CG, no matter, just make it GOOD. He's also rigth about the storyline. Different from the games, but still Halo-ish. Or it won't be so great.
And remember, Marty MUST do the music. NO BUTS ABOUT IT.
And yes, make the weapons familiar to us, the people who play the games.
I can't wait to see what the Hunters look like in the movie.
Did I mention that Marty O'Donnel should do the score?

i think that once the movie is like done and they dont need the companion it would be cool to see it

I know a lot of movies now make a 200 page book on the making of the movie that be so cool to have for halo 2. I mean all book stores carry them u know what i mean right

I think it would be cool to have multiple movies, just let the first one out to see how it does. It'll make a ton of cash cause everyone will see it, but if it's bad, no one will see any other ones.
I don't think the movie should be h1 or 2. It should be a whole new adventure. Having the halo 1 or 2 could be cool, yet we already know the plot.
Again like i said earlier, the movie and the games should have nothing to do with each other, especially not making h3 or 4(?) have cutscenes from the movie. Don't let them be one in the same, but two things all together, but with the same idea.

This movie should be Kind of on the story line but for graphics wise it needes to be just like the video clips in the game for example: when it shows The chief On the bridge talking to the sgt

Don't.

  • 08.23.2005 3:16 PM PDT

I am a Floodian

i would like for it to be in parts, it not be with real actors. i dont want someone in a masterchief costume. cause it will look really dumb. parts from the cinematics in the game should be the same

Woo hoo page seven!
First off, I'm sick of all the kids telling where you placed in posting, we can count. All the kids on the front page are only saying 'don't screw this up'. These are the same kid that were up in arms after they beat the Halo 2 story mode. I thought it was a great ending, a cliffhanger? In a video game? The whole story was great, the right mix of visual mastery and suspense.
I can't wait for you guys to put the master chief up on the silver screen. Way to go Bungie, you guys rock.

Please do not put Arnold in anything Halo related.

The Rock is already messing Doom for us. So NO TO HIM! Please no more Rock.

Vin Diesel can stay a pacifier. Please dont put these actors on. Stupid A Movie Actors.

Pure f-in awesomeness, this is gonna be sweet yall. I hope you guys like, make the Halo 1 and Halo 2 movies. Then finish the Halo3 video game(If there will be one of course,) and then make a Halo series prequel that takes place in the time of the forerunners to show the origin of the flood. Then create the Halo 3 movie- that would complete the Halo franchise. (Sigh,) but I probably shouldn't get my hopes up.

When you introduce the Flood, the moment has to be tense. Like in the original Alien. Not Aliens of Alien 3 or anything like that. Back when it was pure terror. Preferably with flashing lights.

Yay, I feel a little more confident about the movie now. I still say Joe Staten should have been a director but producer is good enough. Make sure the directer you get really does care about Halo as Peter Jackson cared about LOTR. I wonder when part 2 will be out.

"Parsons and I knew that any time we spent listening to Hollywood's siren call would be time not spent thinking about Halo2, and that loss of focus could be very, very dangerous."

the above quote made me LOL.
anyone seen the "making-of-Halo2" DVD ? (of course u have)
from what i saw, if Bungie had've spent less time screwing round, Halo2 would've been shipped as a much more polished product.
they(Bungie) openly admitted so in the DVD.
don't get me wrong, i love Halo2 & dig Bungie as a game-dev' company, but i really was dissapointed w' 'what could've been' had they been more productive/efficient w' the time they had to produce/develope Halo2.
i would've rathered Not know how much better Halo2 could've been coz' one feels kinda slighted knowing it would''ve been X% better w' decent time managment.

anyways Bungie are a top-shelf game-dev' company (my fav' of the current high-end batch) so i s'pose they've learn't their lesson re' 'good time management from past mistakes.
(but) the above quote made me LOL coz' ever since i 1st viewed the "making-of" DVD i've wondered just how much better it could've been.
looking forward to seeing the movie for sure but to be honest i'm way more interested in what Halo3 will bring to the (360) table.

great job Bungie…thx for respecting the fans + keeping them informed & (reasonably) up-to-date.
if only more game-dev' companies were like you.

LMFAO

well first off let me say i havnt played halo2 or used my xbox since i left home for college and stuff. Now to the point lol, i think u guys at bungie and all the directors should team up with the creators of Red vs Blue to give it a good kick. Plus, if this happens and since i am the first to think of this idea lol, i should get 25% of what they will make plus 25% of the movie makings(so 50% all together haha). Well, other than that, good luck with the movie. Oh and i almost forgot dont put in real actors because that would be -blam!-. Use voice overs and also use the technology they used to make the Final Fantasy movie, because that would be best for all of us and everyone else in the world.
