I was thinking the other day about the coolest trailer for the Halo movie, but before I start, don't say that this belongs in another forum, becaue there is none first of all, and this is about as close as we get to one.
Alright, since most movies actually have more than one trailer, I was tyhinking of several possibilities for what the trailers would have in them.
There are about 3 versions I came up with--
Cinematic Trailer -- This is the trailer that's a preview in the theaters, usually longer.
TV Trailer 1-- The trailer the shown on TV that would be one of the many possibilities.
TV Trailer 2-- The trailer shown on TV that would be the other possibility that I came up with.
Cinematic Trailer --
This trailer is preety long, about 3 or so minutes, I think that a mysterious theme should be key. It would start out exactly like the game.
[ All Black, then you hear engine sound from the beginning of the first game, camera fades in to the ship.]
[Goes to the bridge in the same manner in the game, same dialogue almost.]
[Captain Keyes] *sigh*, Cortana, did we lose them?
[Cortana] I think we know the answer to that question, the Covenant ships have always been faster.
[Captain Keyes] Hmmm, were are we? What is that?
[Cortana] I honestly have no idea. At light speed, my manuevering options were limited. As for the ring like structure. Origin unknown, purpose unknown.
Then, when she says, "purpose" There is a very scary flicker of a Flood form, like in those thriller trailers about ghost or demons or something, where there is this sublymonal flicker of the monster.
[Captain Keyes] I want everyone on station.
[Cortana] Everyone?
[Captian Keyes] Yes, everyone. [pause beteween the two words.]
You see ascene of reckage on a place similiar to the beginning of Halo the level.
[Cortana] Master Chief. Are you okay? We need to get out of here, as Captain Keyes' orders.
[Voice over of Steven Downes] Cortana, where are we?
The camera pans out to reveal a vvery large plateau of sorts, that eventually keeps panning out untill you see the Ring,
The rest of the entire thing I'm preety much not concerned about, a battle sequence that takes place aboard a Covenant ship would probably fit it. And I want to see this awesome close up of an elite barring all his teeth/appendages.
I would then like a puawse in the action. And you hear this really creepy growl, a Flood growl, and then you would hear from the Master Chief. "We have to get out of here."
Then you would hear the them song play, the monk chanting thing.
I don't really care about anything else I just realized, and I'm too lazy to type the rest of my ideas.
But one thing for one of the TV trailers, the ending would have no music, it would just be this
"Hello, I am 343 Guilty Sark, I am the Monitor of Installation 04."
So please comment, I might muster the strength to do something else. But yea.
