look i saw that post earlier on several sites and guess what, some guy got excited when he heard denzel is talking to peter jackson about the halo movie roles and automatically assumed it would be the master chief

i would be very pissed because denzel doesnt fit mc in voice, tone, movements, physicallity or i hate to say it but chief was described as a little white kid with freckles to grow into an oscar winning black man would cause halo nerds to wonder what the hell did they do to him during augmentation

denzel will probably play a ship captain, admiral or maybe even seargeant johnson, i could see him doing johnson... he wouldnt be copying johnson, he would do his version of johnson adapting it, making it his own.... t

mc sounds alot like robert patrick (the bad terminator in terminator 2). back then he didnt but on the x files he does sound like him alot. especially when mc says"im finishing this fight" plus he has a military haircut. they dont even need to show his face. just the voice would be fine
I agre with you

Why do people care that a black dude could play the MC??
For gods sake hes in a SUIT WITH A HELMET!! Even if he did play him it wouldnt matter cause we wouldnt be able to see his skin. Everyone is like the MC is white he cant be played by a black man!!!! its like who cares?! Where not going to be able to see his skin!! or his face for that matter..

Me and my friends are always saying something like " at the end of Halo 3 the MC should take off his helmet and be ethinc, Just so people could burst in flames cause of it. Like a Black man, a Mexican guy or even Asian. it would be SOOO funny to see all the people, white people who make fun of ethinic gamers online"

Yup, Anyway MC talks like a black man already.

What are you talking about? Everytime we see the MC from the third person perpective hes standing, sitting or walking.

Are you saying no one can WALK like the MC? For Gods sake hes running in a suite whats there to match?

And hes a tall black man. In a suite he would just look like a tall guy in a suite, if you didnt know he was black. And the suite hopefully would look exactly like MC so it wouldnt matter.

People with poor depth perception tend to go the extra mile.

Uniquely Hard Sniper Map

Now i don't really care who plays Chief since you won't see him, considering he's in a suit. But, i've noticed that Bungie is big on detail and accuracy. I don't know if you guys know this, but i'm guessing they're casting a black man for black man's role. Just so happens that there is a black man in the Halo storyline; he goes by "Johnson". IGN got their "denzel might be chief" info from a website who got their info from an undocumented source, which means it's not very reliable. But i think Denzel would make a good Johnson.

Seriously, who gives a -blam!- about his skin color. When was the last time you saw the Chief? We don't even know what he looks like..

..besides, MC isn't even real, so who cares? It's up for interpretation and new twists. Put a lid on it already.
