well u never know hollywood comez out with some crazy $hit....but a midget about waist high of an average male human would be ok...cuz it would look smaller if it were standing next to a 7ft human cyborg.

"I'm hungry..."

I really hope it's over Fall of Reach. It's something we haven't seen before, it will tell people who don't like to read (lol) the backstory of Halo, there were all kinds of battles (outside battles, inside battles, epic space battles, etc), and it would be far more appealing to broader audiences but still be good to the die-hard fans.

Yeah that would be good but if they did that then they would have to make 2 more movies for the other two books.

i think the movie will be on First Strike becasue its a tie between halo CE and Halo 2 whereas if it were on somehting like Fall Of Reach then it would be alot of work trying not to show any of the Spartans faces especially Master Cheif's. Nobody wants to seee his face that'll just ruin it and besides i think itll be better if they do something on First Strike seem to me as if there was more fighting and stuff which wuld be -blam!- awesome

Its not going to. Frankie said on a recent WWU that the movie and Halo 3 are not going to be set to come out at the same time. Besides the movie's release date has been moved to 2008 now

Oh yeah, and the movie takes place with Halo 1, though it might have some fall of Reach stuff at the beginnning.

I feal that the movie should be set during or near the end for fall of reach, as alot of people who havent read the book understands who or where the MC came from.
And for showing MC face they could show him when he was a child and abducted my the UNSC. So they could show John 117 as a child but not as a adult, either way i dont think the movie will be a flop........

Incorect, the movie is going to be basedof the Fall of Reach. Game Informer stated so. It might have a little bit of the book and more of the game.

I don't know man...

Real Acters...

Bloodryan anybody..., Residant Evil..., Mario Brothers..., DOOM....

The best Video Movie to me was the first Mortal Kombat... the others... No...

I honstly think CGI is the best way to go with Halo.

Who the heck is going to do Johnson? The Grunts will be CG.


Every movie you mentioned there was utter rubbish. I wish I could be more insulting about them without getting banned.

Anyway...

I personally want to see MC and humans all real actors - suit'em up. Aliens anyone? Starship Troopers? Badass military suits worked well in those movies.

Covenant will have to be CG for the most part, but then with PJ behind the wheel, we know what Weta are capable of. Think back to the orcs - in Moria, they looked awesome.

It'll be like LOTR - where CG is needed, it will be there. Where they can use live action they will... WHY? Because it's better for realism.

I mean, I don't care what any of you think about star wars - ROTS was one of the worst movies I've ever been to the cinema to see. The CGI overkill was just the icing on the cake.

You can do some incredible things with CG now-a-days; Don't limit your imagination to using one or the other.

But MC HAS to be live action. As for who would play him??? I think Eric Bana wouldn't do a bad job - in lower tones his voice isn't so far from Chief's. Although, if you never see his face, I'd be happy for the same guy to do it.

Marty MUST do the music though - no doubt.

For somebody to say the movie is going to be based on the fall of reach...or the books or whatever....is like saying halo will be released this year or the Halo3 has been released in china....lol.. The truth is nobody really knows what itz gonna be about except the fact that it is about Halo...as far as the plot ur guess is as good or bad as anyone else's. You can say someone said this...or I read it here ...or I heard it there....but see u guys get caught up in the "he said she said" Bull$hit and everythings is not creditable unless it comes straight out of Bungie (maybe cuz there making the F**king game!!) For example I read in a game magazine somewhere that Halo3 wuz not going to be a continuation of the two previous games but that it wuz going to focus on the plot about the forerunners and there orgins....dont know if any of ya'll know what Im talking about...but then I read here the bungie discredited that article. Not that I believed it but u see how easily someting can be over exagerated

As far as I know the Halo movie will be based around Halo:CE, but don't quote me on that :)


Proof it's on Halo:CE!!!

Or is this another Best Buy scam... Mmm..

Personally, I think Halo Movie will be like Batman Begins:

Shows MC when he's 6

Shows how he became a Spartan

Shows him kicking but as a Spartan

It's a perfect Parallel

But don't quote me on that :)

or the movie would cover the fall of reach and halo1 and halo2 and a sneak peek of halo3 or if the game halo3 came out then maybe halo3 also

That would be a LOOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGG movie.

OK, yes, it is very true that I'm a dumb ass. I'm not denying that. However, isn't the whole point of a beta to increase the amount of users until you get someone dumb enough to try something you haven't anticipated.

i'm kinda not looking forward to seeing this movie done by real acters. But I guess I gotta see how it looks first.

If it was CG like Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within then sure i'm all for it!!


why not CG like FF7 advent children, those were great great CG

I still think they should balance it...Like in THE lord of the Rings. SOme of it wuz done by real actors and real stage sets and some of it wuz done in CG. Peter Jackson can't F**k this one up. He did a pretty good job with the LOTR trilogy and King Kong. He should be ablt to make this movie just as good if not better...Im pretty shure he knows the expectation of all the fans. ITz gonna be one of two things 1. He makes it so that its as real as possible or 2. he f**ks it up.

Grunts are too small to be played by Midgets... What are they gonna do...



That is a FALSE statement grunts stand to be 5 feet tall or taller it says it in the Halo: Combat Evolved intructions booklet/players manual regular teens can easily play this role
