Victory Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 http://xbox360.ign.com/dor/objects/852871/...trl_090409.html Yeah, they need to take what they've done with these trailers, and make a movie already! -Vic Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Dumb observation: But they aren't speaking English. And the uniforms on the Marines in their, er, "dress blues" are ill-fitting. (I think.) Link to post Share on other sites
Samm Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Very good blend of live action and CGI there, could be wishful thinking but maybe the movie is still on the cards! Dumb observation: But they aren't speaking English. Microsoft do release Halo in non-English speaking countries. Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Microsoft do release Halo in non-English speaking countries. Oh, I understand this. But it's an ad aimed at American consumers, is it not? Link to post Share on other sites
Samm Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 No I think they have Marines in other countries too. Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 That is not what I said. Link to post Share on other sites
Samm Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 What particular part of the trailer was it that made you think it was aimed solely at the American market then? Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 The fact that everything else but the spoken language in the ad, from the website to the "WE ARE ODST", to the mention of the Xbox360 Elite's price drop was in English. Link to post Share on other sites
WeirdoTransvestite Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 It was never said in the Halo universe that Earth and the UNSC were under only one language. Actually, many of the PA announcements in Halo 2 and 3 in New Mombasa and Voi are in two languages. Trailer was great though. Those brutes looked almost real-ish Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 I somehow suspect that the trailer was done in not-English for dramatic effect. Link to post Share on other sites
Shriven Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Jesus titty *fruitcage* christ. I came buckets. I wonder if that was Blomkamp or not? EDIT: Don't forget that one of the forum members here IS making a Halo movie! www.operationchastity.com Link to post Share on other sites
Libris Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 That was pretty cool. ODST now pre ordered! Link to post Share on other sites
Fin Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Eastern European languages are more dramatic, think it went very well with (that somewhat AWESOME) clip. Pre ordered last week and cant wait for it to come out, what's MW2s appeal again? Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 That was awesome! Much better than the similar blomkamp one for halo 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Donut Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 GODDDAMN THAT WAS *fruitcage* AWESOME GRRRR, I hate and love sometimes about Halo, it seems like you just can't completely hate it Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 I think I have watched that trailer too many times. I need to distance myself from this forum so that I can get something done other than watching that trailer umpteen bajillion times. Link to post Share on other sites
Shriven Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Ditto. I just love the way the visor mirrors up... it just whispers... go time. Link to post Share on other sites

WeirdoTransvestite Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Longer version is to air on Spike TV on monday, I think at 10:30PM EST. It's 2 minutes 30 seconds. Link to post Share on other sites
davedawg123 Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Just saw this on youtube. I know nothing about Halo but that trailer was just friggin awesome. Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Watched it. Again. And apparently Captain Reynolds is going to be your direct superior. And Jayne is going to be the big gun-happy member of the team. And Six seems to be either your unit's CO or an intel officer. Link to post Share on other sites
Unit 318 Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Anyone have a link to the extended trailer? Link to post Share on other sites
WeirdoTransvestite Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 What part of this Monday, September 7, didn't you understand? Also Jag, Wash is the demolitions guy/pilot. Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 Oh, God. We don't have to save Simon and River, do we? D: And where the hell is Zoe? ... Unless FNG is Zoe. Link to post Share on other sites
WeirdoTransvestite Posted September 6, 2009 Report Share Posted September 6, 2009 I wonder if The Rookie can kill you with his brain. Nathan Fillion, Adam Baldwin, and Alan Tudyk played marines in Halo 3 too. Even had some firefly quotes. Link to post Share on other sites
