New Halo Reach live action trailer

Video: The latest live action trailer for Halo Reach is epic, emotional, and... OH GODS WHY DON'T THEY MAKE A MOVIE ALREADY?!?!eleventy11!

There's every chance you've already seen this latest Halo Reach live action trailer. We saw it this morning, but a combination of waiting for local PRs to get it, waiting to download it, then waiting to upload it to our hosts... yeah. It's a slow process.

But that doesn't detract from another awesome-cool trailer. We know it's getting ever-cooler to hate Halo, and but it's like we're genetically pre-disposed to love this franchise, and every live action trailer is just a note perfect addition to the larger back story of the world.

In this new one, we get to see the sacrifice that opened up the slot in Noble Team that you fill in the new game.

And there's more to enjoy at www.RememberReach.com, and the game itself comes out next month.

Game to movie sucks; It will suck even more-so when it is an average franchise like Halo.

I hate to be the hater, but the only reason it was popular was because it was the only decent thing on XBox on the first place, (heck, it could have been on Mac). Sure, it became massive from there, (probably because it was initially the only thing decent on the 360), but it still doesn't warrant a movie.

Even if it does eventually get a movie; they might as well get Uwe Boll, even Peter Jackson couldn't save it.

While that made it popular, the game stands on it's own merits. I played the PC port when it came out, and story line and game play is easily up there with Mass Effect and Half Life.

Halo is not an average franchise.

I agree Arcane, Halo has a great backstory and lore to go with it's shooting/strategy gameplay. I've got all the Halo games including Halo wars and it's great to see more and more of the story behind the Halo universe.

If they make a movie it would hopefully have a decent director behind it though. I think the hard part would be picking where in the Halo timeline to do the movie, not to mention how many sequels?

Running across open ground? Not making use of cover? Squad members not covering each over? That guy deserved to get shot!

If they make a movie now Haters will hate, just like "FF Sprits within"

they call that a video game to movie adaptation to this day I have yet to see the video game it was based from.

sure they are getting better, Sands of Time was well done, but there a to many fanbois with Halo for it to work.

trailers for the halo universe are always the best! i honestly think a movie wouldnt be bad for the franchise, and really high budget series might be better though to really flesh out all that lore.

That sent a shiver down my spine...

"We know it's getting ever-cooler to hate Halo"
The only reason I hate Halo is because they havnt released 3 and beyond onto the PC...

Don't really care for the halo franchise but if they can make facebook into a movie, they can certainly make halo into one! at least the latter would probably be more entertaining than some well off geek trying to boot up his pc and make friends online. (still can't believe that crap was/is being made!)

I'd love it if the team that made "The Package" from the Halo legends short movies made a full length feature. They wouldn't have to worry about actors, all the old voices from the games could be used. It would just be a shame that the weta team wouldn't need to be involved.

Game to movies only suck when the producers/directors have no idea ( Dragonball etc)about the games themselves!
Hitman was a good movie!

But I wish they would make a halo movie, if it's as good as these teasers are, were in for a hell of a ride!
