  Halo? A sad sad day for fans
October 21, 2006 2:00:39 AM    View the profile of Cyleaf Aehait 
I was just checking out Ign.com when this headline caught my attention: Halo Movie Dumped

they are unsure if it was

a) a rising 135 million dollar budget
b) the film makers and microsoft refused to reduce their % cut

So where does this leave the movie? I hope they continue somewhere else as I was looking forward to seeing the Master Chief on the big screen.

edit: here's the article, I don't know how to link it

Meh. I guess I would've preferred CG anyway, especially for something like this. DOOM is an ok movie if you want down a bag of Lays potato chips by yourself, but I believe it could've been a much better movie if it had been done in CG.

I agree with Cos - They should have made it in CG instead, to stay true to the series.

Still, this is horrible news - I was really looking forward to it.

No... he was the lead director, and lead producer.

Good call.
