The last I heard was that Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings, King Kong) will be producing it. Might also direct it. Good news if you ask me.

Does it really matter?
Halo 3 is enough for me... and since we are in the Halo 3 section... why are we talking about the movie?

Someone said it might be over the first game Halo:CE. If you go to google and type in Halo movie on the pics part you'll find real MC suits that might be used for the movie.

It isn't safe to trust IMDB you know. Don't.


Tru Dat! Remember when some one had posted that Uwe Boll was gonna be the director? Some speculate it was posted by Boll himself.

I would like the Halo movie to be about something OTHER than the story we already know. MC has been in HUNDREDS of engagements against the covie... So.. Why not cover one of those?

Sure, it's not a Halo movie without a Halo and some Flood...

But I would like to know about some of these other missions the MC has been on.... Some of the things he's done...

I'd settle for a movie depicting the events between "First Strike" and Halo 2. Or even some events that take place AFTER Halo 3.

IMDB says it's for 2008 now, but don't trust them. They only know what fanboys know.

I just looked some of this up and on www.megagames.com in the news part it tells the script is part of Halo and Halo 2 put together, and it's got all the blood you could ever imagine. Some of that was from a Bungie guy who read the script.

That is actually just a rumor, and I doubt that, and kind of vote against it, I hope they show flashbacks of Reach though.

If the Halo movie series starts at the Fall of Reach, then that means there's gonna be like 4 more after it.

Well if they're going for a 2007 release date they better start casting and shooting... now!

The amount of CGI that will be needed for the movie will take forever, lets assume that they begin casting next month and begin shooting during the summer. It will take at least 8 months to shoot it knowing Jackson, so a fall release date in 2007 seems likely, but thats also assuming that there are no delays and that the CGI and the editing will be done very quickly.

That is all presumption at this point. Neither Fox/Universal, nor Bungie, nor PJ or AG have said anything about it being based on FoR.

*Sighs* no those are not armor pics from the movie or concepts. Those were made by Nightmare Armor Studios as a project they independently did between Halo and Halo 2. MS was so impressed with their work, however, they comissioned them to make 50 of them for MS. Served to help the Halo 2 marketing campaign. For some time, you could custom order a Mark VI suit on NAS site but not anymore...anyway they went for like $2000 and are not the movie costume for the Spartans/MC.
