Content, not judgement.
Ep 1. OK, this is interesting. These characters are real people. What is Sully looking at. ....uh-oh.
Ep 2.. Yeah, that is going to escalate. You guys better figure -blam!- out.
Ep 3. -blam!- just got real.
Ep 4. MOVE![/url]
Watched it, it was actually pretty decent for an introductory episode.
Hell, I enjoyed it. It was good. I have a few nitpicks, though.
I was extremely sceptical about this at first, but the $10 million investment is not going to be taken for granted.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Quantam [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Haloroach COMPELLING CHARACTERS? But seriously, that was far beyond my expectations. I thought it would be a Michael Bay esque all explosions no plotline serial. It could be better, of course, and this militaristic setting [i]may[/i] not be the best way to introduce people to the science fiction of Halo, but it's actually quite compelling.[/quote] It's an accurate portrayal, though. It is really giving a dystopian feel. Good. That is the UNSC in a nutshell. [/quote] Agreed. As a fan of hard sci fi, this is, in many ways, a dream come true.
