They're Random, Baby!

Just dont do it....
(Positive Thinking) Ok, so it's a bit more like a list of DON'Ts and DOs for the movie making people.

DON'T
1. Show the master chiefs face! I always liked the feeling that, I was the Master Chief, You were the master cheif, we all were the master chief! And The Master Chief, is a Big Guy with a Big Gun and a helmet over his head! and if they do, dont make it a big name star!

2. Bend the Original Story Stuff! Sure, make the first game into a movie, or make up a time between the games, or after it's all over! Span the entire thing for the heck of it! Just dont mess with the set facts! Like having Capt Keyes die in the Master Chief's hands!

3. Do Not have an overly long fight between the master Cheif and some random elite, then blurr the rest of the fights! Hey, movies have done that before!

DO
1. I do pray and hope they do their research on this! Like what made the games fun, and how to bring the feel of it to the movie! Like how bad humans were being beat by the covenant! Or how crazy it would be to have to fight on an alien world, where you have no friends, everything there is trying to kill you, you're a long way from home, and the dam thing under your feet is a weapon!

2. Ok, so maybe this was a Don't, but oh well. Don't have any out of place jokes! Like an Jackal asking how many covenant it takes to screw in a light bulb. (51, 1 elite but he needs 50 grunts to order around!) Or like Johnson saying, "Hey MC, they should make a video game about us, you hear me?" "That would never happen!"

3. Do well to the fan and the fan will do well to you. Treat us right and you will make alot, treat us wrong, and we'll find out where they live!

4. Can't stress it enough! Just got to drive the point and feel of halo into the movie! Nothing out of place, nothing "breaking the laws" or facts already set. Remember that Halo was loved for it's great music and it's crazy areas, and cool weapons, characters, and ships!

well thats all for now, hope i made a point, or two, and i hope the movie is good!

Johnson: "Hey Chief, they should make a video game about this"
MC: "Sorry, I don't have time to play with myself"

I hear ya brother, having throw backs to existing games, movies of the past and such would really suck the methane out of this sucker.
