Just thought up another cool idea! What if they made a movie on Halo 2 and just did a synopsis of Halo 1? Naw, that sucks. Oh, well.

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

Games and Movies DO NOT MIX....there are very few success....I can think of only two....well....they are sorta successes. The Super Mario Brothers, and Resident Evil. I say Resident Evil because they did the movie before Zero was a game and before the REmake so....it was ok....the MB one was perfect for little kids....so it was a succes...but Halo... I love the idea...think it would be great...but remember...all US moview are almost ALWAYS under 2 hours....with the time contraints and how for some F***ing reason Hollywood LOVES Love Triangles...Halo would be destroyed by them...so I say NO!

Well, LOTR was over three hours each. I'd think Halo would be as well.

I agree with your point of love interests and Hollywood. They would try to introduce one of the following.
a) Something between MC and Cortanna, somehow.
b) Something between MC and one of the women Spartans (if its a movie of Fall of Reach or First Strike.
c) Introduce some bimbo marine who he falls in love with.
NO! with a Halo movie we need action all the way.

It would be good but Hollywood would srew it up, they would probably add somekind of love interest for the chief, whuch would be dumb beyond comprehension coz we all know he loves fightin' covie scum (Yee haw, bang bang, etc) to make it 'balanced'.

Well, they could make a marine to marine love connection on the side and leave the MC alone. That would be acceptable. Like an ODST falls for a regular Marine. Then they both die when Halo blew up, kinda like in First Strike.

If they made a Halo movie, who would you want to star as MC?? I would say Arnold Schwarzennegger. lol

Dmx, Vin diesal, hell I think jet Li could pull it off if they made him look taller. But I definately think CG is the way to be. Then put in samuel L Jackson as sgt. johnson and jack nicholson as colonol Ackerson if it is a FoR or First Strike remake.

Bungie said they are not making one or seeling the rights for one to be made. On top of that Hollywood screws up everything. However if there were to be one, then it would have to be 3-4 hours long, all CG like FF Spirits Within, and with all the original voice actors, and it would have to be based after the Fall of Reach. But it won't happen, ever.

I'm sorry to say this but a anime of any of MC adventure wouldn't be as best as a real live movie. Just take by exemple Lord of the Ring, they used CGI only to creat the Creaturs and the to show the big battles from on top the rest it's all people in costume nice looking Costume like by exemple the orcs. Now it wouldn't be that hard to make 150 Elite costume maby more use midgit or kids to play the roles of Grunts and jackals and make like 300 costume of each and go on like this with the rest of the covenent and flood. Damn if any one would need to make this movie it should be Peter Jackson. That if making a movie of Halo could work. Im a BIG FAN of Halo, Fall of Reach and First Strike and i want, if they do make a movie, that it wont be disapointing to their Fan.

Better yet, make it all CG so that people won't complain if something looks fake.

Yo Halo53, I'm real happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best bungie.net profiles of all time. OF ALL TIME!

Any movie Halo-related I would watch. It could be good, and it could suck. It depends. It would be cool to see how they do the various levels/planets.

What Bungie might be afraid of is that if they sign a contract of making a movie out of Halo it will turn out to be another game/movie failure, but i really like the idea of making a anime movie of Halo.
Of course they have to make a movie out of fall of reach, i love that book!

Halo would have to be made as either a live action or a CG. I'd prefer a live action. If you'd want it to be CG because of the stunts, just look at the Matrix trilogy, they have tons of stunts and its live action. I'm sure people wouldn't mind an Elite that looks slightly fake. The spider, Shelob, from Lord of the Rings the Return of the King looks fake, but the scene is very well done.

Only if they had some form of movie other than CG, anime, and live action! One made especially for Halo

I'd just like to remind people that CG mixing it up with real life animation works well now. The Orcs in the Lord of The Rings, when they appeared en masse were all CG but you'd never know from watching it. Dayumn.

The trick is... the Master Chief isn't exactly human. He spends every second of every minute examining the area around him, looking at firing angles determining the best means of egress under fire.

Currently the Master Chief is a lonely tragic figure who is doomed to be alone his entire life and in the same manner die alone in a dark corner. The real story would be between him and Cortana... how an artificially intelligent computer program trapped in his head slowly teaches him what it means to be human.

It would be cool to see the Chief initially giving everyone the cold shoulder and slowly coming to share the banter with the marines.

A love triangle is interesting if done right... but it doesn't seem likely given the Chief's character.

I think a halo video would kick bootay (only halo... no other half ass excuse for a great gaming experience) I would buy the halo movie just like i would did with the first halo... Bungie could make some good bucks, but they would have to have that touchy plot and it would have to be 3d animated... no acting BS. (not that i am being picky but... picture a popular actor in a Mark II MJOLNIR armor.) maybe even a remake of halo Combat Evolved... only as a movie.. that would be cool.

btw... bungie... the acronyms that people put out there are confusing..

CE custom edition
CE combat evolved

maybe Custom Version ( CV.. haha ) wouldv been better

Well, what's the difference between Halo 1 and Halo: Combat Evolved? Aren't they the same exact thing??

Here's the deal

A halo movie would be good only if a good director is picked


Either: Jerry Bruckheimer, George Lucas or Ridley Scott

And a good cast....
the Voice of Master Chief in the suit----Master Cheif,
Ed Harris---Keyes
Samuel L Jackson----Sarge
Either Catherine Z Jones, Halle Berry or Jen Taylor----Cortana

other actors too....
