The Halo Movie

OK, I searched and everything but didn't find any similar thread.

Anyway, rumor has it that the Halo movie is FINALLY in production, being FULLY funded by none other than Bill Gates himself. Anyway I have also heard that there is already a trailer for it, and it covers the ENTIRE halo series (Starting from 3 days before the fall of reach all the way to the end of Halo 3).

Now any of you who still thinks tis is going to be a normal length movie... well you are sadly mistaken. It's going to be 5 hours long! Obviousally there will be an intermission added. 🙂 It'll be cool. 😛

I highly doubt it'll be 5 hours long.

And is PJ bstill directing it, or did he lose the rights?

Peter Jackson better damn well be still holding the rights to make that damned movie. He is just too damned good at making adaptations. And I seriously doubt it will be a single 5 hour sitting. But before I further write on i would rather wish to see the link of the article which actually says these things.

Not sure how this movie is going to be like.In the past movies base on video games get bomb pretty bad.I gues we wil have to wait and see!jm

Yeah, the appearence of MC can also really make or brake this movie. ALso, they could add a "gasp" love intrest!

Oh yeah... Cortana and MC.. steamy mental butsekz...

The horror of it all!jm 🙁 😆

hmm...
5 hours - doubt it
pj director - hope so

I thought Jackson and his wife were only producers?

Anyway, I really do not see the fascination with this Halo business, enjoyable game with a few mates and some alchohol, but really, it'll be is an updated Starship Troopers at best.

It is going to bomb I could feel it!Thanks for the link!jm

Im sorry, but if you can't fit a single story into a 2 or 3 hour film you dont deserve to be a screenwriter.

If they did that it would suck HORRIBLY. They would have to cut nearly half the crap that goes on.

The only way they could pull off a good 3 hour movie is if they made a trilogy or something.

It would be much better if they didn't go the route of the games but created a whole new story perhaps a prequel like the novels.

I think halo is an ok game but jesus christ. what the hell is so unique or original about it. its got nothing special and the storyline isn't bad but it isn't as phenominal as fable. all it is is shoot the bad guys, wait a few minutes, shoot the bad guys etc. This movie better kick ass or else halo is foever given up. the only cahnce they have is to put a cover system in 3 and make the miracle of halo becoming its own unique game...

It is like you said interesting.But alot of video games does the same thing you kill things or the person you are againist and alliens.So it is not like it had not been done.jm

Fable's story phenomenal? What are you smoking?

This movie is ganna be awesome no matter how long it is lol.

We shall see!jm

I worry about this movie sucking but with Peter Jackson involved we have a chance of a great movie as long as MC dose not remove his helmet like Judge Dred in that movie.
