The Official Halo thread!

Start your Halo experience off with the first book:

Halo: The Fall of Reach

This is the best book in the series and the only one worth your money. It gives a good back story to the first game and is very well written. I couldn't put it down the first, second, and third times I read it.

Yeah. Fall of Reach is fantastic. I actually enjoyed reading that book more than playing the games. Very, very good book.

Awsome, overview of Halo.

Neill Blomkamp is directing HALO?????

Wow, thats out of left field!

*ponders*

Very good choice... Neill is very talented and has the vision to pull off HALO. With Jackson producing and WETA doing the effects work I cant see how this film would fail.

 

[Isildur´s Heir]

It can go either way.
Sure, Blomkamp has talent, no question there, but the thing is, is he good enough for a feature movie of this caliber?
To make short movies and commercial advertising, is not the same as to say that he can tell a 2h movie.

But, let´s hope it´s great

Some Villains would rock.

 

[Tsunulia]

Freaking sweet. I'd love to have those up on my wall

 

[Nebins]

I heard somewhere that Denzel Washington was playing Master Chief. Anyone else hear this?

 

[Untilteld]

I also did too ^, but does it matter really who plays Master Chief? He never takes off his helmet or talk really.

 

[Poetic Chaos]

He only met with Jackson. I don't even think it was confirmed it was about Halo.

 

[patrickbateman]

man i still wished it was peter jackson directing this.

 

[Darth Elektra]

I heard somewhere that Denzel Washington was playing Master Chief. Anyone else hear this?

[SolidSnakeMGS]

i never liked halo.... i played the game and it was an ok shooter.

the story was crappy imo

HOLY **** I agree with you for like the first time ever. As far as an FPS, it is severly lacking. Gimme Half-Life 2 or Call of Duty or FEAR or many other better examples any day.

Why the hell would you need Denzel to play Master Chief? Just get some physical actor who is big and agile to play the physical part, and get the original voice actor to voice the role.

 

[BloodyWolverine]

I think everyone goes to Sam Jackson and Denzel Washington for these types of movies in these cases. I'd like to see Sargeant played by Djimon Housnou instead. That guy is a fantastic actor and i could see him for the part. Master Chief i'm not so sure really. But i'm tired of the same ole actors beig used 6 movies a year. For Halo i'd like to see substance more then star power. However if this reaches a studio. My guess is Sony Peter and Fran i believe are doing the casting and so i'd say we have nothing to worry about the cast.
