HALO: The Movie is already filming (Release Summer 08)

Peter Jackson and 20 Century FOX told us all HALO was postponed sue to a lack of interest. No one believed that, but then the movie and all information about it disappeared from everyone's radar. HALO fans, as well as Peter Jackson fans felt let down and couldn't figure out how this project didn't make it.

Flash to E3 2007 where viewers and guests were treated to a trailer showing props that required a lot of work. We were then told it was just a promotional clip for Halo 3. No one asked why there was a LIVE ACTION clip to promote the game? Well XF did. Shortly after E3, images of full size Warthogs started popping up on the net. The public still didn't put 2 and 2 together. Now I know some of you did, but wanted proof to back up your theories.

Put your theories to rest. The movie is already in production. Those Warthogs are from the movie. D.B. Weiss (Lucky Wander Boy) handled the final script with Neill Blomkamp handling directing responsibilities. There really is a reason they came out of New Zealand. Think about it. Halo ... grassy rolling hills ... Peter Jackson? All we've learned so far is that the movie is set for release the Summer of 2008 and is planned to be heavily marketed. Again, this is confirmed.

So sit back an relax Halo fans. Your movie is less than a year from being in theaters.


Lol I don't think Summer '08 is very likely.

Oh snap, I think I seen like a preview to something like this where its real life battles with the brutes and 2 ODSP trying to retreive a package. The are under heavy attack and one gets shot but still makes it. A pelicon drops in to give them a warthog to get away but they get shot with a plasma grenade or something like that and they crash into a wall. But I don't know if they die.

But the way this little 2 minute clip was AWESOME with SO MUCH ACTION and a lot of HALO TYPE BATTLE GROUND ON EARTH. and the brutes looked so real plus the Pelican was awsome.

alot of clips are taken from the best parts of the movie and tend to be the only good parts lol

All 3 Resi Fils sucked and then there was Silent Hill Doom Mortal Kombat and the awful Super Mario Bros movie which has just been released on blu - ray - do they actually expect someone to buy it?

There's alot of good sounding game movies on the way. But you know they will not all be good. But Halo the movie will be good.

lol you cant guess if a movie will be good just cause of the title and a small trailer XD

Peter Jackson is a part of it and it's Halo so how could that formula fail?
