OK, your certainly not smart - not smart compared to many members of this forum anyway...dragoniv1 said:LOL you all are so gulable lol wow no wounder the world is so mest up when something this stupid can go so far, all about some grammer wowI mean jeesh its my 1st topic, and i just joined this site like a week ago lol, great 1st impression everyone 8)
For one, in what way am I gullible - do you even know what the words means, if so your using it way out of context. Secondarily, grammar is not stupid - it forums the very basis of communication. Yes its your first topic, but I'm not giving you any sympathy - when I joined I immediately realized the need for proper grammar and attempted to improve my spelling - I too remember the first time I spelt grammar with an "e" and was informed appropriately.
The fact is grammar is an important part of this forum, whether you like it or not. All you've done is give me the impression you don't care about intellectual games discussion, not only by ignoring all the previous points I spent my time addressing to you, but also the fact your attempting to insult me, admittedly very poorly, for trying to help.
You need to work on:
Your grammar - read sentences aloud to yourself before you post them.
Your spelling - if your using Internet explorer get ieSpell, if Fire-fox use their application - if neither try typing in word - just make sure you have something checking your spelling - theres no competition to post the most - badges arn't important.
Your attitude - I'm trying to do you a favor by introducing you to the way things are done on this forum, don't treat me the way you are doing.
Remember - this is a discussion forum, I for one am sick of list threads and discourage their creation to all whom I mention the matter. Think before you post a topic "are their multiple way this topic can be seen as", or "Is this topic a simple choice of A or B?", that way the forum won't be cluttered with unnecessary threads.
The other users and the mods care, because they have to read your posts and it's hard to do so if you make no effort at grammar. They don't demand perfection (they put up with me so they must be pretty tolerant), but some semblance of effort is required.dragoniv1 said:
Anyway, there was lots of talk about a Halo Movie coming in 2008. Peter Jackson was signed up as producer and Alex Garland (wrote 28 Days Later) was reported to have written the screenplay.
Sadly Microsoft made it pretty much impossible for any studio to make the film, 20th cent Fox was involved, but M.Soft claimed 'creative oversight'. Basically they were trying to take Fox's money then shut them out, to which Fox promptly pulled out some time in 2006-7.
Microsoft basically want someone else to invest the budget for the film, then stand back and let Microsoft take total control, obviously no new investors have appeared.
The film has never been officially canned (it was briefly in pre-production), but it's safe to regard the Halo movie as dead and buried.
Any Halo driven media will suck outside of Video Games or some gaming genre. I'm sure it will be released eventually. Right around the tim eall u fanboys stop cosplaying and the rest of us have moved on. Then, little or no impact.
Wether polite or assholes, Escapists like things that stimulate their mind. And yes, Escapists are also a bit elitist in their demands for post content- but that's the way things are here, for better or worse. Many users find it insulting that you would not take the time to prepare a well-spelt opening post, so I suggest trying Firefox, or some other browser that supplies one with spell-check.dragoniv1 said:
Am I the only one that realizes that this is a very, very poorly disguised troll and that he's getting his jollies out of people arguing with him over grammar?
I also like how like 25% of the posts in this thread actually relate to the thread title.
Now. Moving on, I don't believe the Halo movie thing could work unless it was some kind of apocalyptic log about some station built on an alien world being overrun by the Flood. Kind of like the Blair Witch Project, but more actiony. Plus we wouldn't have to worry about terrible actors butchering MC and Cortana- new characters for all!

Chief's a man in a suit (with no face!) and Cortana's CG. Just get them voiced by their proper voice actors and leave it at that. Otherwise we'll all have to put up with Sean William Scott: Master Chief.The_Oracle said:
True, very true. But really- a LOT of videogames have been put to screen, and very few of them are actually good. Silent Hill is one of the more notable exceptions.fix-the-spade said:
What would I really want?
No Halo movie. Don't take the chance that Halo fandom will be horrifically raped by a bad rendition of Halo. It's not worth it.
Damnit, I joined just to point that out. Too bored. Honestly, was there that much criminally wrong with his first post that it warranted a criticism anyway? Just two exclamation points and a missed capitalisation, unless you're against abbreviations, in which case the internet might not be for you.The_Oracle said:
I only really post on here a lot so my troll spotting skills are not the strongest - I just usually beleive that person is generally ignorant as opposed to being truly moronic by deliberately acting ignorant - why do people waste fractions of their life pulling stupid stuff like that...?MindFragged said:
As for your first post...bravo... =)
A script exists, but one of the two production houses signed on to make it ran off in fear when they suffered some financial losses. Thus, it wasn't actually made beyond initial design/graphics work by Weta Workshop and various related pitch material. It's shelved and semi-canceled, but not nuked with no hope of return.
I thought that was a spoof.McCa said:
It was really cool looking though.
*EDIT*
OP, their goal has been achieved. We can read your sentences now, and that's the greatest gift of all.
Welcome to the Escapist. Now that you use (reasonably) proper grammar, it's safer here.
Gullible is what you are! For posting all that after I clearly stated im haveing fun with all you morons, for giveing me such a hard time about a few little things on my topic/first post that was wrong. Oh yea and if you want my attention, try not to use the opening line of "OK, your certainly not smart"D_987 said:OK, your certainly not smart - not smart compared to many members of this forum anyway...dragoniv1 said:LOL you all are so gulable lol wow no wounder the world is so mest up when something this stupid can go so far, all about some grammer wow

i hope if they do do a halo movie it will be CGI and not live. The RE movies would of been better CGI and the new film Dragonball evolovsion would of been better.
P.S please excuse my bad grammar and spell, i cant spell to save me live and my spell nor my grammar is never going to improve because it is not my thing
