I don't know if any of you guys watch G4, but a few days ago I was watching it and the feed came on and the girl said that Denzel will play the Chief in the upcoming Halo movie and I was shocked. Post right here and tell me what you guys think.

Haha. I saw that two, and almost blew a gasket. I mean, Washington's a good actor and all, but i can't imagine him as John.

Then again, having Denzel Washington as the actor means that we'll never see the MC's face (because the Chief is supposed to have really pale skin from the augmentations and all the time in the MJOLNIR, I think).

I always imagined Vin Diesel or Bruce Willis as MC...

Yeah, I always pictured Vin Diesal as the Chief too because he has the deep voice and he's one bad dude.

Bruce Willis.


Agreed. He's got a grainy-er, rougher voice than Diesel. But still, I always imagined either of them in the role.

Plus, not much dialogue. MC doesn't talk that much.

The Chief is supposed to have iron hard muscles and be amazingly fit because of all the stuff they put in him while he was becoming a spartan and Bruce Willis just doesn't have that like Vin Diesal does.

Vin Diesel is also short. And all his movies are the typical action movies, with the corny replays, and impossible physics. (excluding Saving Private Ryan)

I don't even want a big-time actor playing Master Chief. Get a really tall, unknown actor, who has a good build...Denzel doesn't fit the specifications - he's not too tall, h sure as hell isn't built enough, and I doubt he could do the stunts.

I mean, getting an unknown actor seemed to work fine for Superman Returns..

You do realize that none of that really maters? All they have to do is put a relatively-fit guy with a "correct" voice and amazing acting talent in a MJOLNIR suit.

Because, after all, if the MC removes his helmets, the Halo fanbase will go wild. Half will be ecstatic at being able to finally see his face. The other half will be murderously rampaging about, furious that their image of Master Chief's face has been ruined. I'll be with the latter half.

This might sound really stupid, but what if they got Shaq to play the Chief. I mean Shaq has some movie history and there won't be much talking for him because the Chief doesn't talk to much. He's seven feet tall like the Chief and they would probably just have a stunt double for all the weird stuff anyways. This is really dumb, but oh well I'm just throwing stuff out there.

In June, Denzel Washington did indeed fly to New Zealand, according to an article in the June 30 edition of New Zealand newspaper The Dominion Post. " Denzel Washington has confirmed he visited Wellington to see director Peter Jackson and the Hollywood heavyweights will collaborate on a new film project," said the paper.

However, Washington told reporters at the Wellington, New Zealand, airport that the meeting was about an unnamed project--that would put him behind the camera. "Speaking at the check-in counter, Washington said he would direct the movie, which he hoped would be released in two years. Jackson would provide the special effects."

Since Jackson's most recent project is Halo, people just started specualting that Denzel would play master cheif. So leave it alone already, he's not going to be in any movie.
Get over it.

I hate them ALL! DAMN YOU G4!

He is not going to be in a movie. Do you guys not understand? He's not in a movie.
He's behind the scenes. Do you know what that means? That means he's not in the movie.
He is not master cheif, he is not sargent Johnson... he will not be in the film whatsoever.
Behind the scenes people...behind the scenes.

I know. I hate it!
They got rid of all the things that made TechTV great. (Except X-Play)
For example;
-They changed The Screensavers to AOTS.
-They got rid of Kevin Rose, Pat and Leo.
-They got rid of several shows. Some I actually watched.
-G4 was hardly called "video game telavision" any more.
-Sarah and Brendan left AOTS for a trip around the world (when are they coming back?).
-X-Play doesn't seem to do as much skits or have as much funny stuff any more.
-AOTS is pretty much filled with crap: Myspace, comic books, ect.

Gargh!! What else could they screw up?
