Impossible is Nothing

So I, as many others I suppose, have been searching the internet diligently for awhile trying to see what is going on with the Halo movie. Has anyone heard any rumors lately that I may have missed?

I really want to see this movie get made, I think it would be amazing to make and it should be a box office destroyer.

What if we all signed a petition to get this movie made? Send it to Microsoft, Bungie, movie companies, the WORLD!!! I wonder just how many names we could get on a list to get this started up once and for all!

What are your thoughts on the movie and should we as fans try and take some action to get the ball rolling?

My opinion on the matter is that the production of the movie is more likely now that Bungie has left the project in the hands of Microsoft and 343. This ties in to my opinion that Bungie was reluctant to develop a movie on this series as it would undoubtedly change the story which they had created.

That being said, though I think a movie is now more likely, I feel that it will not be as good as if Bungie eventually did decide to go down that path. Without the guiding hand of the group that produced each installment of the Halo series to date (excluding Halo Wars), I worry about the integrity of this production.

Before I get torn apart from others noting that the books (of which, those written by Eric Nylund were FANTASTIC), the comics, Halo Legends, etc., were developed largely outside Bungie, they were created at a time at which Bungie still owned the series, and ultimately still had the a major input on what could and could not be done with the storyline.

In the end, I have hopes that a movie project can be completed, but also that it is done in a manner which holds true to the Halo universe created thus far.

Bungie never owned the series after they started working for Microsoft.

Ever.

OT: I think a peition would be a good way to get the ball rolling with microsoft.

Join Robot Academy for a great community, fun gamedays, and lots of lulz.

OMG a Halo movie would be so cool. The books were amazing so if it followed the books and the games it would be a great movie.
