ok so clearly im too bored to do any work today and sat around watching the lord of the rings (how i love saturdays) and it got me wondering. especially about a Mr Andy Serkis and a Mr Peter Jackson and a Mister Chief.

does anyone else agree with me that Serkis will end up acting out the aliens for Halo: The Movie. just seeing his preformance as King Kong made me realize that he would make an excellent Hunter.

opinions?

I think it will all be CG with the same voices, too much $ to use CG characters with normal humans in HALO.

normally i would say that might suck.

but im not normal and the Final Fantasy movie was AWESOME! (visually speaking, the plot lost me right at the end when i couldnt work out what on earth the guy was all about with the last spirit and all that jazz)

Andy Serkis would be a great choice for a Grunt, after all the work he did with Golumm

If it's a CGI then what's wrong with the voice actors from H1 and 2? Yes, yes the Marines suck but the Grunts and other aliens are fine.

All of it CG would be pointless I think...and I think Weta workshop that is coming with Jackson should get their chance to make there awesome sets and costumes.

I agree. The original voice actors would be the way to go =D.

Yeah, I think having people dressed up as the covenant will make it look more believable. Like the whole movement of the characters wont look animated. I think CGI should only be used in HUGE battles in space, ground, water, air and underground.

To contradict my above post, I think they should use CGI for the voice of main characters. Like Master Cheif, Cortana, Captain Keyes (if he is in it), Commander Miranda Keyes, and all those main human characters. But they'll have to look extremely good.

Don't follow in my footsteps; I walk into walls
my 360s blog

Cortana will be hard to do as rendering a 3D hologram will tough hte covenant and flood will be CGI they will probably use real actors for the marines and a stuntman for the chief

Read about my gaming here.

I read somewhere that's it's not gonna look like a game -> movie movie, not like Tomb Raider, but a movie that isn't "ported" from a book or game, and it's gonna be bloodier than Save private Ryan, marines are litteraly gonna be cut in pieces by energy blades, be blown up by plasma mortars, plasma wounds, all that stuff, think I have a link somewhere to a part of the script

I think that would be cool. It would give people more of a sense that these are aliens that are trying to exterminate the human race with absolute no mercy. A new feel towards movies will probably start with this Halo movie.

Gee cuz MS really has no money to fund production of this and WETA, who did the digital effects for LOtR and Narnia did not have real humans interact with their digital characters...ya that is some great logic there buddy....

the movie hasn't even been made yet so how would there be a trailer? also i can se doing CG for cortanna but if you CGI the whole thing it would just be like watching all the cinematics from halo 1-3 together and not be that great. but to anyone who says the marines suck for voice in halo you should hear some of the funny crap they say when you ar efighting, it's almost to much, especialy if you accidentaly kill one and another says that he had a puppy.

Speaking of the movie, has there been any updates recently? Has a director or cast even been announced yet?

There will be enough money put into the Halo Movie, MS would only release the script if they did.
