Where is Our Halo Movie?

It’s obvious Bungie knows what they are doing when making commercials and can help produce a fantastic picture if they are creative and esthetically involved, so why oh why do we not have a Halo movie in the pipeline?

Neil Blomkamp was picked by Peter Jackson to bring Halo to life a couple years ago but the studio’s didn’t deem him a big enough director to make the film and it all folded in on itself. Blomkamp and Jackson went on to make District 9 instead and have those studio execs shaking their heads as the movie quadruples its budget.Now for the release of Halo 3: ODST Bungie commissioned a new live action commercial and the results are stunning. Who isn’t going to love watching an epic film in this world! Bring back Blomkamp and Jackson and lets do this!

  • I will be the blasphemous one that says I never really cared for Halo. There is something about console gaming (FPS especially) that just makes me rage hard. However after seeing this trailer I think a Halo movie is in order. C'mon, Hollywood!

  • Yeah I hear you man!
    I've been waiting for the auditions to come for this movie so I can audition to be the Master Chief. I have the height, the voice and the looks (even thought u dont see him...EVER!)

    :P
