It was good but a bit boring since it was all character development and minimal action.

Well they gotta build up to all that stuff

Yeah of course they do but still some of the acting was a little dry.

Most of the characters seem really generic so far. But I don't want to criticize it yet since it will hopefully get better once there is more action.

I'm a stubborn guy. I love to argue my opinion, but unlike others, I'll try to see your side of the problem. I'm a triathlete, with a very heavy empephis on the swimming bit. Also, don't hate on the ~Quinton~ at the end of my posts. Why are you still reading this? #creeper #hashtagcashmoney for hashtaging on Bungie.net

First episode was meh, but I'm excited to see where the series is going to go.

I really liked it. It showed a different side to the UNSC and what the cadets thought about the war that they were fighting.

However, I did have one nit-picking issue. When they all came out from cryo-sleep, the cadets were fully clothed. Going into cryo-sleep with any amount of clothing on will cause very painful rashes and skin irritation. However, only Lasky got the skin irritation.

Other than that, I think this is going to be a really interesting story.

I loved the build up of the characters and I cannot wait until the Covenant and the UNSC engage in combat.

It was pretty good and I am super excited to see where it goes.

I think that's just been retconned, since no one pays attention to it anymore outside of some books; we see them wearing some special clothes for the cryo training, which probably acts as the replacement.

The easy answer being that it's much easier to just start with clothes rather than having to awkwardly censor everything.

I gotta say, it looks way better than expected. This is definitley some people's substitute for a "Halo Movie". Different time period not in the games exactly, but still has The Chief. Still debating on whether to watch it now or watch the version on Halo 4's Limited Edition with all the extra stuff.

  • 10.06.2012 8:18 PM PDT

Let's get it own!

I thought it was great. I watched it trying to have low standards, just
So there would be no room for disappointment. I hope it brings in some
New fans.

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

Landfall ruined it for me.

Ever since seeing this I can't take FUD seriously.

I mean..... just look at it. Haha awful.

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

It was a very good build up. Introduced us to the main characters well and set the pace and tone for the story. Really looking forward to things accelerating in the next episode.

Let's start with looking at classic Mjolnir Mk VI here and here. And then lets look at the Mk IV from The Package.

Let's round this out with the Mk IV from Forward Unto Dawn.

Lay them all out side by side. I know its a live action real-life prop (good effort) but I can't help but notice very very obviously that its just a dude in a suit, but what do you think? Is the Chief a little.... er.... rotund?

I liked it. Good introductory episode. Did what it had to well in a short space of time. Can't wait for the rest.

Yeah it does look kinda lackluster. But that's what happens when you take out the special effects, the lighting, the scenery, etc.

The Aliens in Alien games are crap quality compared to their movie counterparts but they work really well due to the lighting.

OT: I haven't watched it yet. No subs. :(

Easter Egg Hunter. Apprentice Tricker/Glitcher (learning from Grumpy and Sliding Ghost).

Trying to get Waypoint to update Halo 3 stats in detail like here. Now no one can see that my Halo 3 Spartan no longer looks like my Reach Spartan.

Really want to be a Heroic member or have a title. :/

I don't love it with a burning passion, but I do like it.

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

Looks exactly like the Halo 4 Chief to me, which is sad. They made his armor beefy, which is the problem.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Forward unto Yawn's first episode wasn't very interesting or captivating with cliché character back stories. I hope this changes.

It was really good in my opinion, can't wait to see how it plays out.
