So I decided to watch this in slow mo cause I was bored, and I saw a couple things that interested me. Nothing ground breaking really. The screen effects that happen as Cortana speaks look pretty crazy but after watching them over again in slow mo you realize they are relatively the same. These are a few things that popped up once, and kind of stood out.

First off I noticed a hand in the beginning. This doesnt pop up again throughout the trailer.

Then there was this weird shot. I dont really know what its of, but I know there isnt anything like it throughout the entire trailer.

Well like I said, nothing ground breaking. But interesting to me. Have a nice day.

I hate you so much...

But not as much as I hate the internet.

the second one could be memories of the spartan program flooding through cortana's head as she may have gone mental...what part of her dialouge is she speaking at that part? it may be a clue....

The third one (not the hand) appears to be the Cryo room from Halo 1. The foreground is the walkways in the room (implying that the camera was a few feet above these walkways looking down on an angle) and the background on the right is the cryo chamber itself... but maybe its just because its late and i am tired

IThis is not here.

They could be some of the Chief's memories, or something..

Well the hand appears during the first Cortana flash. She isnt saying much then. The second one is right as shes saying her first line.

Another thing I noticed, and this is purely symbolic to me. When Cortana says the line, "I know you..." her flash begins right over MC's heart. It just seemed like a weird coincidence to me. I know a lot of people speculate she might be turning against him. But when I hear that line I hear emotion from her voice, and not a hateful type of emotion. But like I said, this is all my symbolic interpretations. Im not saying, "This is what it means!". But you can take it... chew on it a little.. it tastes good.

Cortana slapped the camera, then had a flashback to the cryoroom on the pillar of Autumn.


No biggie... but what does it mean?

His heart is in the exact center of the screen
Coincidence?!

  • 05.09.2006 10:07 PM PDT

Im pretty sure Cortana goes crazy. Look at the storyboards section in the Halo 3 area. What a creepy picture...

  • 05.09.2006 10:09 PM PDT

EARTH IS THE ARC PPL

  • 05.09.2006 10:12 PM PDT

The last one look like Marty's studio to me. Probably just a easter egg. They said there's one in the FAQ

Well, the first is.. Purple blob?

Second is.. A hand, I wouldn't say MC's hand, but it's definatly a hand. (Ungloved)

Third.. Looks like a space ship or space station (MAC station?), or could be a hospital bed. Who knows?

  • 05.09.2006 10:18 PM PDT

I think the third looks like the Cryo room from H1 as well, the first room you start off of. And the Cryo tubes look like they're laying on the ground.

does anyone else hear a woman (cortana?) scream or "aghh"/w.e just before the first line? {edit- its Very faint u gotta really listen.} which also seems to be at the same time we see the hand. it kinda creeps me out. but it could have significance?

What you are hearing is her stuttering "I"s before she says I have defied gods and demons.

possibly, may explain the creepy hand on the camera.... maybe Gravemind is 'breaking' her mind.
