I do like the idea, but Halo's plot and story in the game wouldnt go for a good movie. I think theres too much of the "go there, do this, kill this" kind of apect. Don't get me wrong, Halo's gameplay as a game is great, but it doesnt make for a good movie (if there was one, I would go see it anyways. That just contradicted my last statement. [wow! big words today!]) I just think that the movie would be an on-going thing, just not movie quality in my eyes. I would just like to see Halo stay as a video game, not turned into a movie. Now, people with other opions, please post, like to hear everybody.

Halo is mentioned as a game that is expected to be made into a movie. Not that I trust CNN all that much, but there must be at least a little weight to the Halo-as-movie deal if a major media outlet like CNN mentions it.

If the movie has a good director and decent actors then yes....

good music director too....maybe Marty O'Donnel or even Hanz Zimmer!!!!

I think if they were going to make a movie they would have to base it on the book 'Fall of Reach' the plot would involve watching John 117 go from being a 6 year old to a spartan to a master chief and of course the destruction of reach. That would make for a cool movie.

Alex, you hit this one on the head. Halo just wouldn't make a good movie. I know I'd go see it, but that doesn't mean I'd walk out of the film happy.

Lets keep this one as a game and a game only. The plot is far too different than a movies and would end up ruining the series. Just enjoy StarShip Troppers as a good replacement.
