Love > War ? *gags*
(Romance) Interwoven within the Halo story would be the theme of love is greater than war. I suppose, they tell a story about a Marine going to war for his wife and how the war pulls them apart, but their love keeps them together. And they miss each other and write scattered emails across the stars and stare at the same ol' digital photographs and worry like hell. And at the end of the movie he makes it home alive, too! Long kiss and all.
Actually, this may be a good way to work romance into the movie, without taking too much away from its actually point. Then again, there is a lot of ground to cover, so why bother to tread over this? This didn't happened too much in Halo, not in the games or too much in the novels. It takes away from the other themes of Halo. That's all I'm saying.
Love in war is really Hollywood and cliche.
Should be like this though. Jones: "Long as we're standing here, might as well write my old lady. Cortana - you take dictation? Dear Mary, I miss you so much - STOP. Will be home soon - STOP. How is the dog? STOP. Have you learned to cook yet? STOP. Love, Sargeant. PS - I've met someone. Will be home soon for divorce. Bye-bye... PS - do you think I could take the dog? Maybe not. Think about it! Write back. - Got that, Cortana?"
