To the guy who said Halo should be an anime, welll.... how can I say this w/o getting my butt kicked over a really mean comment.... THIS is the kind of idea that brings down a genre. You better apologize to Uruk-Hai for your flaming, cuz it wasn't completely justified. First of all, anime is a cartoon, I admit it as a fan. It's just the zenith of awesome cartoons. Second, like sum1 sed, Halo as an anime is a step down from the realistic 3D action- your idea would kill the production. CG Halo would be a lot like Roughnecks (CG Starship Troopers), but better. With the growth of CG's influence in Hollywood, it's about time the US produces a SERIOUS CG film. Just look at the Japanese with their Final Fantasy: The Advent Children.

I just have to say I can't take anime seriously, I don't think it's that good ( I don't know what words I can use on these forums)

I respect your opinion. After all.... beauty is in the eye of the beholder, anime owns bugs bunny.

I can agree that most anime is not good. But still there are some animes that are very good.

Halo would not be an Anime, as it is not Japanese, as for Anime itself, I do not like it. Halo should be just what it is, a game, nothing else.

If I am the only anime fan in here, then so be it. however I don't think Halo should be an anime, movie, or anything but the videogame we know and love.

Oh ho ho ho, you'd be surprised at how the Japanese JAPANIFY American things. Like Star Wars manga for instance...

Oh, and Death Raven, i'm a freakin' otaku too, and you are not alone. thanx for not being an @$$ to ppl who don't enjoy it, specifically the guy i flamed at while started this thread.

Lone Ranger, don't make me flame at you. You're just an unfortunate, unaccepting person. I hate audacious ppl and the crap that spews out of their mouths.

Bugs Bunny does rule those. I have watched alot of Anime to be completly diguested with the art form. Bugs Bunny's cunning would also make all of the overly dramatic, self-rightous character us that terrible art, confuse themselves.

-S

Ew. NEVER admit to being an otaku. You don't want to be an otaku. The Japanese don't want to be otaku. Otaku is the Japanese approximation of slimy geeks that will nevermove out of their parents home because they can't get a job because watching anime and reading manga is more important to them than anything else (including taking showers). Otaku is a derogatory term in Japan.

If that didn't give it away, I'm a fairly big anime fan.

However, I don't care for the idea of Halo being anything more than it currently is.

OK. Sorry for not seeing this earlier, but i am indeed the person who suggested the Halo Anime. Here's why:

Halo as a LIVE-ACTION movie wouuld BLOW. I'm talking BIG, GAPING, PUS-OOZING ASS. Down with live-action. With all the CG aliens, and having to give all the human roles to dumbass celebrities.....HERE: BEN AFFLECK as a marine. like, some ditzy super-model as CORTANA. that's what some of today's producers would do, so we all agree that's out of the question.

Halo as a CG Movie: some potential, but budget would prove....worrysome. Like, if SQUARE did it, it'd be cool, but devoid of emotion. Like the Spirits Within.

Halo as an ANIME:

There are such LIMITLESS POSSIBILITIES in anime today, and such a BROAD spectrum of genres, it's easy to say Halo as an anime would definetly suck ass, i can admit it. ANIME is NOT defined by POKEMON and what's seen on today's late-night TV.

If you've seen Kill Bill, with the Origins of O-Ren Ishii, then you'd know the potential for a very EXTREMELY COOL Halo Anime. Not -blam!- medabots or some kiddie-crap like that. I'm talkin' ADULT anime, like Cowboy Bebop-style, how all but the main characters are done - like real people. If you've seen the opening to the CB movie, Kickin' Down Heaven's Door, that will give you some idea.

My dreams for a Halo Anime revolve around not it as a CARTOON, but as a STORY. Anime is not a cartoon. I HATE it when people simply label it and toss it away as just a "cartoon."

Because it's so much MORE.

I'm gonna go look for some pics of what i mean. Be back soon.

EDIT: Shishka, you're absolutley right, but the AMERICAN term Otaku is strictly limited to just an Anime freak. Maybe a bit more, but not nearly as much a horrifying label as the Japanese Otaku.

To the person that said it can;t be an anime cause it's not Japanese. Take a look at some of the new series in Japan, they are making a show about TaTu, yeah that girl band thing, as scary as it sounds. But as many have said, a Halo anime wouldn't be a good idea, and this also comes from an anime fan.

Most NORMAL people would say the same.
And I am normal.
If every kid at your high school or whatever came on here, they would most be like me.
Thats fine, that you like anime, but the average 15 year old non-nerd would say that its a bunch of garbage.
And chuck jones could own you at halo.

Alright, I hate anime, I will never look at anything you suggest, it simply makes me ill. Halo as a movie or anime, or anything but a game is pointless. Pure and simple.

. Anime IS a cartoon, anime is animation in Japan, animation is a cartoon. In Japan Rugrats is also an anime. Just making that clear.

Yet again, this is coming from a big fan.

With anime, we can get camera angles, perspectives, and elements not FATHOMABLE, much less POSSIBLE with live-action - even CG. CG animation is very limited.

Now, as another example, if you've seen the Animatrix, take the Second Renaissance, or Program, Detective's story (same guy who did Cowboy Bebop) or even KID'S STORY.

Back with pic links soon.
