Halo Legends is a mockery of the Halo name.

[quote]Before you make a dumb comment, read the whole thing and see if I clarify something later on[/quote]I have no problem with anime films, but I do have a problem with a Halo anime film. From the trailer, Halo Legends looks absolutely ridiculous and the only similarity to the video games is a man in a green suit running around killing aliens. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6g1yyWEfks]This[/url] is what Halo is like and what it should look like, not [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRXe6Utdtvs]this[/url] crap. Since when did Spartans take off their helmet to point a gun in some girl's face and have a -blam!- monologue with them? Halo is about action, not talking. I enjoy movies without action and don't need explosions to keep me happy but that's exactly what Halo is. Halo is about action, excitement, and blowing stuff up. Don't get me wrong, Halo has a great plot, but that plot doesn't involve touching conversations with people you meet in the forest. From what I have seen in the trailer, it doesn't seem like a very far off idea to have the people in the anime film to start holding hands and sing campfire songs. It just looks silly. Have you seen the elites? Also, what is up with the scene that has the giant spartans (which I have been told actually exist and were some of the first models) shooting lighting and hitting shields that look like bubble shields that you wear? This is not Dragonball. Lets also not forget how a sword battle between Master Chief and The Arbiter would never happen. Lets remember, I am not some redneck that can't sit through a film unless it has explosions and tits. I love movies with deep meanings and great plots. I just think that Microsoft is destroying the great story that is Halo. I'm glad that Bungie won't be making any Halo games after Reach so they don't have to be associated with the crap Microsoft does with the Halo name. What's next, "Master Chief and Friends Take an Adventure in Candyland?" [Edited on 07.27.2009 11:06 PM PDT]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Go Vader I'm done with this -blam!-. I honestly expected better from the Halo community, that was a mistake. Instead, I see rabid fanboys dissing Halo Legends because they have ignorant and half-baked opinion on anime in general. But instead of reserving final judgment on the finished product, I guess whining and moaing about the Halo story being told in a different way is just logical. Did it ever occur to some of you purists that most of this will be non-canon? That means it won't hurt the story. Amazing! Keep calling anime crap, just shows how rampant my fellow Halo fans have gotten regarding different things.[/quote] .....yeah because we are all 9 year old kids...i liked the 3d animations that was cool but the anime....nah...but yes we are all nine year old kids and we dont like anime....you keep saying "wait until the final product" we saw a 5 minute trailer (i have a life so i didnt count how long it was) of gundam-like mechs shooting lighting out of cannons moving out of their backs...i like the action but its just stupid to me anyway

Frankie is in charge of the company that is making the thing, you know, 343 Industries? They are getting THE top Japanese anime producers in existence. They know how to make anime. But I guess someone like you, a random Internet dweller, has all the knowledge and unbiased attitude to properly insult the work of quality animer creators. Screw you.[/quote] You didnt read the whole thing didja? Im pretty sure he understands that the animators are top quality he (i agree) just doesnt wanna see it turn into your stupid naruto and dragonball z crap where they got guys throwin round lightning and fireballs..its retarded..[/quote] Your dissing Dragonball Z, probably one of the greatest animes ever made. Naruto? I can see what your beef is, but it gets better as the seasons progress. And why is everyone so sure this will fail? Let us see it first, then say it will fail, which I doubt it will.[/quote] you know why everyone thinks it will fail? because they have seen other anime shows and they dont want halo to turn into that. And if u havent noticed almost everyone in this thread has been bashing anime so why would they want a game that they love to turn into something they hate? o and the anime series will fail it may bring more fans to halo but most hardcore halo fans will be dissapointed

No, it wont be any different from other anime, the only aspects Halo fans will be able to relate to is the fact that they tried to imitate characters we've loved for years.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Go Vader [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Blargface there is nothing wrong with lighting but in halo there is because halo there are no magic powers. o and that was a brute it had a lot of hair. also the bad thing about the brute picking up the spartan was that spartans weigh at least a ton [/quote] Who said the lighting is a magic power? Maybe its an actual weapon or a new Covie weapon being redirected by some feature in the armor. Also, no duh, Brutes are typically hairy. Plus, really? For weighing a ton, Master Chief sure can move.[/quote]\ read the books next time.... and he does have a ton of armour on him the armour moves with him....didnt you read ghost of onyx where the chief couldnt move because the armour wa spowered down?

  • *sigh* this is the end of halo.... This is halo, right? All you anime supporters are forgetting one thing...in the preview, i saw almost nothing that looked like HALO!! the armor maybe, but the visor was humongous...If ppl want a story on Halo, read the books, not follow some crappy anime about it. MC doesn't move like Jackie Chan or Bruce Lee, i saw nothing from the canon in there except his armor and a hairy brute. oh, plus the energy sword, which he waved around in front of him like a katana...

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Go Vader Let me get this straight. You DON'T find the following fun or cool? * A mech-like super Spartan that can block Covenant weapons with ease and fire lighting. * Spartans on dragon like space speeders attacking a Covenant warship then engaging an Elite in an Energy Sword dual. * A possibly deep story involving a Spartan and a possible friend. * A Spartan getting into a fist fight with a Brute. * Another look at the events of Halo 3 in anime. Wow, you guys are NO fun at all.[/quote] The brute looks like a fuzzy stuffed animal and the rest is retarded dragon ball z crap...and i think the space speeder is okay

  • dragonball rocks! anyways, don't think of halo legends as something that actually happens in the halo storyline. if it's not made by the same people, then it didn't really happen. halo is just so successful that they are expanding it. i bet it will be an ok to good anime show, so who cares if it doesn't follow halo that much, because it doesn't really happen in the halo that we know.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Go Vader [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Rc dude Vader, what will you expect from this movie? 1. Girls running in white stockings ang short skirts. 2. Close up of MC's armor when there is an emotional moment. 3. A nice story....like forget it! 4. It has 3 points and you want a number 4??[/quote] 1. No, not my thing. But nice sterotype. 2. Sure, if MC is in it. 3. Have you seen the story yet? No? Then I would just wait. 4. I have yet to see 1, I don't care about 2, and 3 has yet to be determined. Anything else?[/quote] Yea, Halo is not anime. This will degrade Halo. Its like that Planet of the Apes cartoon series tht came out to try and cash in on the movie in the 70's. Or that awful Star Wars:The Clone Wars movie that came out last year. Only now, Spartans are samurai energy sword fighters who launch rockets from their back, fiddle with magic and lightening, and ride dragon mech speeders in space. Oh yea and im sure MasterChief now has long flowed hair under his mask, even though he's supposed to have a military crew cut, ya know, the type of hair cut that you never see in anime because everyone has pretty long hair instead?

  • *deep breath* If you've watched anime or read manga, it's not all about love storys and happyland.Most of them are about action if you've noticed they try and cut back on slow parts.But without slow parts you wouldn't be able to understand what the heck the story line is without googling it. Look at Death Note or Naruto do you see romance every figgen 10 seconds? No.
