Great Opening sequence
(Scenes) Blank screen. stars fade in. blanket of space. camera slowly pans upward, revealing a planet. the planet looks normal: oceans, clouds, and land masses. bottom of the screen: "reach". slowly, as the planet rotates tiny, silent explosions dot the upper atmosphere. as the planet rotates more we see black clouds and more tiny explsions, silent in the vaccum of space. fade out Fade in, a normal business street. cars driving in one direction, firetrucks and ambulances head in the other, sirens blaring. behind the firetruck a warthog follows, marines jog in the foreground. muffled explosions are heard. more and more warthogs appear with the occasional rescue vehicle. Camera pans out quickly to reveal a pelican flying overhead in the direction of the action. civilian cars continue to move in the opposite direction. slowly the camera, following the pelican, pans upward to show what is happening: a city in flames, toppled buildings, massive fires, the occasional eruption of an explosion, smoke drifts lazily through the sky, and distant sirens blare. camera continues upward to reveal small explosions in the sky and covenant ships overhead. fade out. Slowly, to the halo theme song (monks chanting) letters begin to fade in: Halo fade out
