I am somewhat of a newb on these boards and first time posting here. If this has alrdy been posted im sorry but just came across this and it mentions possibility maybe of a Halo movie. Interesting read nonetheless.

I say the chances of a Halo movie are slim to none. Besides, everybody knows that movies based on video games are never any good. The evidence? Super Mario Bros. and Tombraider.
The prosecution rests.

errm. . . . *cough*. Well I guess a Halo board is the wrong place to look for movie sophisticates. Oh well, everybody is entitled to their own opinion. Even if it is stupid : )

Just playin' with ya guys. . . please don't tell Stosh.

-edit- Ok, a hot actress does not make a movie a good one. If that's your only criteria, then I guess you should put Voluptuous Vixens III as your all time favorite. We all know that one deserved an oscar.
Gah, doesn't anybody look for a little depth in a movie? Or at least expect it not to be totally ridiculous?

Bungie was approached about a movie and they said no....

The article is only using Halo as an example of a "blockbuster" game.

i think a halo movie would work after halo 2 comes out since there is no halo 3*

Who said there is no halo 3? And even if games don't make the best movies, books do. You can make a movie on the books.

Exactly! Sure a halo movie would be kinda over the top and stuff would be left out, but imagine a movie based on the fall of reach?

..Your ass is tingling now aint it.

That'd be awesome! I love the book but I have a hard time visualizing some scenes. Just don't let someone like Joe Johnston (JP III) direct it.
