Inside the movie museum
(Scenes from Hell) Master Chief grabs hold of active camouflage from a stealth elite and decides to wreak havoc on a group of covenant who're hunting for an artifact inside a museum on Cote D'Azur.

What should've been a decent copy of the event in Fall of Reach turns into a series of obvious references to Peter Jackson and Bungie's inspirations, as the Chief heads inside the movies section.

A huge Lord of the Rings exhibit dominates one of the rooms in the movie section. A couple of jackals examine Gondor and Rohan crested helmets, and one or two others look very interestedly at decorated shields.

The invisible chief picks up Sauron's(robust and very weighty) mace, and uses the Dark Lord's fearsome weapon to smite the foul creatures in no time at all.

Then it is to the 'costumes and models' section. An elite finishes examining a Predator suit, and turns to life-sized Alien model. He looks at the jaws and the shape of the head(Doesn't anyone notice the family resemblance?)MC fits some lethal titanium-alloy killing blades to his fist and sneaks between the Elite and the Predator suit to deliver a lethal strike.

Now, to a brute who's standing quite nearby. The whole wall of the exhibit he's facing is covered with posters of the original King Kong and Peter Jackson's remake, model biplanes, and a very large model of the Empire State Building.

The brute looks at a seven-foot replica of Kong roaring and holding a screaming Fay Wray barbie doll. A delighted grin spreads across his ugly mug and he chuckles as he imagines himself in Kong's place. Invisible MC clobbers him with the model Empire State Building.
