The Halo TV Show Is Extremely BAD

The Halo TV Show is one of the worst video game adaptations to cinema I've ever seen. I simply had to rant on it's existence and everything wrong with it. It would have been so easy to follow the original story instead of all this phony crap they came up with.

@@natezrodlowski9986 That is a good question. Halo 4 depicted Spartan armor as being like Iron Man’s Mk 3 armor: you need a set of robotic arms to unscrew the fastenings and painlessly remove the armor piece by piece. I guess the pieces and undersuit are so close-fitting that crudely removing the armor becomes torturous? Not to mention that it was the Banished who peeled the armor off the Spartans in Halo Infinite: they’d naturally do anything they could to make the peeling process as brutal as possible.

One of my big issues with the show was that John gets all pissy about ONI inhibiting his emotions and covering up his past, but in actual Halo lore that couldn't be further from the truth. When making the Spartans they made sure to tell them exactly why they were kidnapped and that they would never see their families again for the express purpose of avoiding them finding out later and going rogue.

For those not in the know, that's the first book. Having read that was the reason I couldn't get past the first episode of this show. Don't know what he was talking about with the show jumping the shark episode 8, they jumped the shark when he took off his helmet in front of a rebel with a gun pointed at him. I wish it was required for writer's rooms in Hollywood to have cameras installed, someone deserves to be shamed for that idiocy alone. Play the first game, read the book. Play the second and third game, and odst if you feel like it. I think the reach game conflicts with the book (the book is better, so just pretend the reach game was all a dream), and ignore everything that came out after that. Boom, franchise un-ruined. Also recommend applying this to star wars, pretend nothing else exists and watch the original 3 movies (look up the despecialized editions), its wildly different watching those with all the mysterious unexplained stuff still unexplained (e.g. the clone wars).

@@prw56 Reach is another perspective of what went down on Reach. First Strike is what went down when Fred took everyone down to the surface, which was already decimated and burned. It picks back up when Chief gets a gut feeling that some Spartans are alive, and it turns out to be true. There's also a comic detailing Red Team on Reach and what they did. But Reach, the game is not bad, and is just another perspective and ties everything up together, because we at the time didn't know how the Pillar of Autumn got off of Reach. It was an entire buildup to that moment. Hope that explains Reach for you.

'We want it to appeal to a larger audience?" Halo was big in the first place because it ALREADY appealed to a broad audience. Duty, comradery, survival, sacrifice and loss. The marvel of nature, life, civilization and ancestry. Curiosity, mystery and fear. Faith, loss of purpose, existential despair. These concepts are so fundamentally human, they connect with everyone of all ages, gender, race or culture. Halo didn't need a colorful cast of 'diverse' characters to make it relatable to a broad audience. Just because you jam it with interpersonal drama, identity politics and 'emotion' doesn't make it more relatable.

I remember the Forward Unto Dawn web series. Way better attempt at adapting Halo. We got to see the society that made the Spartans possible through the eyes of Cadets who were on track to be Military officers. We could see the indoctrination they went through and how they viewed the insurrectionists. They made a planet that actually made sense and then they threw the Covenant at it and let Chief actually be Chief. Sure he was only in it for like 10 mins but they didn't fundamentally screw up his character. Also it's characters weren't complete cardboard cutouts of sci-fi stereotypes. You don't have to follow around Master Chief the entire time. You just have to be in the Halo Universe and let Chief do his goddamn job.

The broader audience they were trying to reach were the moms of the people who actually like Halo. My mom for example loved the first season of Halo, long after I got off the copium and realized the show was absolute dogwater, she was still watching it and loving every second. That's when I realized that Paramount and 343 took the fans for granted, they assumed that we'd watch it a love it because we love Halo and instead put their focus on trying to get new people interested, in the process they lost the fans because that show wasn't Halo no matter what it called itself.

@Arrowtomahknee
@Arrowtomahknee Год назад
Mando also gave us a good idea of who he is without showing his face. The combination of Pascal's acting and the stellar writing made for a protagonist who is equal parts relatable yet mysterious. Also Mando showing his face in the final episode of the season was done with a narrative reason. He needed medical attention, and the only person who had seen his face was a Droid who was destroyed by the end of the episode. In the Halo show, Chief shows his face to a random insurrectionist for essentially no reason. Part of me feels like they knew they didn't have the writing to make something like The Mandalorian work, so they had John keep his helmet off for most of the show in order to not have to deal with producing actual good writing

I don’t get the whole “appeal to a broader audience” argument. It’s Halo. That’s about as mainstream as a video game series can possibly get. They’re talking like the established Halo audience is some sort of obscure cult following or something that’s barely keeping the franchise alive (I mean, it might be after this show and the train wreck that was Infinite’s campaign and launch multiplayer). Also, how the F did this show get green lit for a season 2?
@Slender_Man_186
@Slender_Man_186 Месяц назад
Was* Halo WAS about as mainstream as a video game series could get, all of 343’s attempts to “broaden the audience” over the years have led to that audience bailing completely. That’s not exaggeration either, the stats back it up. A year after Halo 3 came out it had 1.1 million players, a year after Reach came out it had 900k, a year after Halo 4 came out it only had 20k players, and that led to Halo 5 and Infinite’s console numbers being hidden, although inside sources at Microsoft say Halo 5 took over a year to surpass CE’s sales, that Halo 3’s Eldwrito mod had a higher player count than 5 (leading to the mod being shut down through Cease and Desist), and Infinite’s PC numbers are far from ideal.

I’ve never played a Halo game before but I probably need to. You know how I think they could’ve gone about revealing master chiefs face? Occasionally show his eyes flitting about in darkness in the first few episodes. Over time, he has to take off his helmet for various reasons. Every time his head is hidden in shadows and clever lighting. You slowly build up his character of loving being who he is now, feeling like his armor is an extension of his soul, who he is. You make it feel like he has a face even though you can’t see it, by for a while using his actions and thoughts as characterization, and making hints at his real face seem elusive and confusing, like an abstract dream trying to tell you something. You have a moment where he actually loses a battle, and you see him in a hospital bed, but his head is covered in bandages so you still don’t know what he looks like. During that, someone assumes his identity, so you have Master Chief walking around covered in bandages looking like a corpse trying to get his identity back. When he does, there’s a sequence where you see his mouth moving in shadows, explaining that no one can ever truly impersonate him because what makes him Master Chief isn’t wearing the armor, it’s being one with the armor, and embracing it as you would embrace a part of your personality. After that he would put his helmet back on. Finally, he’s captured and placed into a simulated world in an attempt to extort information from his mind, and his face is finally revealed in the simulation. The world is just like the world he had back home, and it tries to convince him that the Spartan project didn’t work, he’s just an average dude, and he’s gotta hell his family with something before going off to either college or the army. He slowly starts to see gaps in the fake reality, and have an existential crisis because he knows it isn’t right, and this isn’t who he is. He grows wary of the world around him, and sees his captor appear in the simulation several times, before battling them. At the end of the confrontation, Master Chief materializes a helmet just like his own, and declares that no matter who his real face is, his helmet represents the real person behind that face, that he can’t choose how his face looks, he can’t choose how people perceive his face, but through his actions he can choose who he is when he wears the helmet, and that there is no more genuine a form of him than when he’s wearing his armor. He can’t help that he’s John, but he chooses to be Master Chief because that’s who he truly is, a hero, a warrior, someone people can look up to. With this, he puts on his helmet, and the simulation overloads, causing the computers to crash. With this he’s able to escape back into the real world, and when he finally holds his real helmet in his hands again, he smiles to himself, before returning it to where it belongs, atop his head, and his face is rarely or never shown again

That's how he acted as a child. Spartan Boot camp kicked that shit right outta him. Which is how he became the defacto go-to leader of the Spartan 2s. If you wanted something from a Spartan 2, you found John-117. as an adult, even his fellow spartans looked up to him as a role model because he was perfectly stoic and never betrayed his emotions in his younger years. In the games we start to see that crack because he's emotionally worn down from losing so many people he cares about. I love how the books always make a big deal out of him having a breathe, time to check his gear, he'll go into a roster and mark Spartans MIA if they died, he does this faithfully and believes he'll be the last Spartan 2 standing carrying on their standard and memories until he dies. He's added so many non-spartans to that list, humans he admired, or who he respected for their valiant sacrifices or hard effort. Even Halsey is on his list and he has his doubts about her role in his upbringing. I believe his sentiment is that the Spartan 2 program was necessary, though started for the wrong reasons, it ended up being the thing that saved humanity for the right reasons, so he often excuses Halsey's behaviours.

Following it and watching it fight a little in orbit knocking out another battlecruiser. And then going into slipspace, then we get to meet captain Keys, Cortana, and the Marines and then obviously arriving at the ring, and then the covenant attacking. And showing Master Chief waking up from Cryo Sleep. And following the story of C.E. adapted over for a show (edit cause of a spelling error)

But then the showrunners clearly didn’t know Johnson existed, because they cast Capt Keyes as a black man for no reason. They were ashamed that the captain of an important ship was a white man and wanted to “diversify” the main characters. If they respected the source material and got their heads out of their asses, they would’ve known that Halo was already really good and diverse in its own right.

8:35 I immediately thought of the mandalorian. John Fav waited a whole season to reveal his face. The times he took off his helmet afterwards were very reasonable (bypassing security) and incredibly rewarding (so the audience could see two beloved characters saying goodbye before they parted ways). John Fav did an incredible job building up the emotion of those scenes for a character that people only knew for a little over a year. Paramount rushed a significant face reveal in just the first episode, for a character fans have been emotional for for decades... and it was anything but rewarding to see.

Let me explain: They got the rights to a halo show, they knew it already had a fanbase so they didnt think of it as a risk. They gave it to writers and directors who do not care about halo and want to write their own show, but because they're stuck with halo, they have to write their own show within the confines of halo. So they just didnt. Happening a lot lately, Witcher and Star Trek are good examples of this, creators taking something they dont care about and changing it.

my first problem was chief showing his face...you could have him be the faceless protagonist without being the silent one since that wouldn't work aswell as it does in video game format. my second problem was cortana being introduced so early in the story and chief being so mean to her! And finaly having a human with the covenant for the reasons you mentioned but that's a minor issue cause that could explain how and when the prophets found the human race and their role in the universe and the reason they started the war! as for the covenant speaking their own language is fine by me but you miss the opportunity of having Keith David voicing the arbiter with his amazing line delivery,it just wouldn't be the same i believe...and you could make the arbiter be Thel Vadam since not even chief and cortana are different adaptations of the original video game characters. ps...i stoped at the 4th episode then couldn't watch the show and got spoiled after a while by seeing the part where cortana takes over chiefs armor and that scene turned me of completely but i'll get to watch it eventually.

Imagine this as the opening scene of the show. A bunch of marines are pinned down by the covenant. Explosions, needler fire, plasma bolts. There are only a few left. A familiar voice - "Command, we're pinned down, we need the big guns!" "Confirmed Sergeant, Big Guns incoming. Standby." The soldier sits against a rock, seemingly now relaxed, his military cap hiding his face. He strikes a match against his armour and lights a cigar, taking a long drag, as above the ship fires a single drop pod. "One pod?!" Another soldier shouts, distraught and crouching down beside his sergeant. "We're getting eaten alive, and they send one pod!" The sergeant smiles, and the camera reveals it to be Avery Johnson, who puts a hand on his shoulder and says "Son, you must be new around here." The camera cuts upwards, slowly pulling in on the drop pod window, to reveal Master Chief within Cut to title card and the action portion of the Halo Theme.

In my opinion they should've started by simply adapting "Fall of Reach" maybe also including some stuff from "Halo: Reach" or something. Ending season 1 with the actual fall of reach. That would've given them the chance to introduce a Master Chief at his most human and then slowly have him turn in to the hardened hero we knew. And we could develop Halsey and Keyes as two more relatable characters as well. Then season 2 is the first Halo game, starting with the arrival at the ring and ending with the Halo being destroyed and both Chief and Johnson escaping. Btw, how heart-breaking would it be to see Keyes die in season 2 after he's been a main character for 2 whole seasons where we got to know him? Great stuff. And season 2 could be the season to start introducing and developing Johnson as the more human character. Maybe even introducing some flashbacks to "Contact Harvest" from his POV. Season 3 can be "Halo: First Strike." Season 4 can be "Halo 2" and where the Arbiter and Rtas are introduced as two main characters. Keep the covenant mysterious and brutal for the first 2-3 season and then start lifting the veil on them in season 3-4. Season 5 can be "Halo 3" and there you go. You have 5 full seasons of the show. You have a relatable Master Chief who's dynamic and interesting without changing the character. You have a bunch of more relatable main characters other than Chief like Keyes and Johnson (which presumably is what they tried to do with Kwan). And at the same time you're properly adapting the story AS THE STORY.

Halo was built by bungie from the ground up, the gameplay, the humour, the artwork, the mystery, the Master Chief, the story was so rich, the experience from Halo CE through to Reach was the best I have had of any game franchise. It is now a distant memory. Halo 4 took liberties with the artwork they had no right to, they should have played it safe with the artwork and done something similar to halo 3 and reach, instead of trying to make some sort of over polished plastic looking piece of shit, they changed pretty much everything, they were following up on world class story telling with a mediocre campaign, the button pushing animation oh my, the design of the Prometheans is meh, and the forerunners are ugly as hell, I would have been more forgiving and accepting of this game and it’s story if they had of just stuck to the same art style and not made an effort to change or have a unique take on every single detail, I absolutely hate Chiefs armour in this game. Lasky is really lame, was he supposed to be some kick ass character like Keyes or Johnson? I never played Halo 5 after the disappointment from Halo 4, and from what I’ve seen and heard, I’m glad I didn’t play it. Who the fuck is Spartan Locke? lol what a joke Halo Infinite in my opinion is a step in the right direction art style wise, I’m not a massive fan of it, but it’s definitely leaps and bounds better than 4, even CEA and H2A, idk about 5 because I haven’t played it, it’s actually the only thing I like about the game, the gameplay is pretty average for halo, and the campaign was just shit, at least Halo story is kinda reset and they could go better places from here. I really wish they would just make halo into something larger and have teams of 64v64 with flyable pelicans, phantoms, spirits, drivable scarabs, playable hunters, game modes like invasion, that sort of thing They had no idea what made halo great and they have blemished and fumbled one of the greatest gaming franchises of all time.

If you want a picture of how much potential Paramount threw down the drain just imagine this. If Paramount just decided to make a story following what happened in halo CE, they could have made a scene where the master chief exits his life pod after crash landing onto the halo ring. He would then wake up after passing out during the crash. When he wakes up he leaves the life pod, and looks up at the magnificence of the halo ring, and the halo chorus would start up as he stares at the sky. While he looks up he would notice the covenant drop ship on its approach and leave the life pod, getting back to the mission. It’s a shame we’ll never see this in 4k.

Honestly would've liked if they made a show that fit into the canon game timeline somewhere, even if the Chief wasn't in it. It would've been like the Halo version of Trails of Cold Steel: Northern War which is an anime adaptation of the game series which takes place within the actual series timeline. At least then the writers would've been kept in check by lore considerations and if they butchered any characters it'd be less likely to be one of the game characters we know and love.

No imagine making a show so bad that you can even make the OG bungie fans and 343 fans agree that its the worst thing with the "halo" name ever created.

@VelktorCreationsMFQ it’s not the whole company, just these specific writers. For example, the Sonic movies were a hit to fans and non-fans with the second being even better than the first. These guys however can’t seem to handle HALO

9:30 Not to mention the fact that in normal Halo canon, *there is no emotion chip.* I've read through the extended edition of Halo: The Fall of Reach 4 times, and did it again when I saw the damn Suppository. And guess what? No mention of it *anywhere.*

Rewatching this, I'm reminded of a complaint my father had about Star Trek: The Next Generation, specifically the second episode. Not only was it basically a remake of an Original Series episode, they had a brilliant idea with the Android character of Data, and in the _second episode,_ he's getting laid!

"Well it's an alternate timeline, so that's why Chief is so different." Okay, but.... why? Let me recap real quick, they gained the rights to adapt a Halo TV series. Nice, I'm all for it. But they decide to not follow the games so that they can create an alternate timeline with a less interesting and engaging plot? And keep the characters from the games, but make them less interesting, less enjoyable versions of them? What was the point of changing anything from the game story, if you're just going to replace it with an objectively worse version of it? Like how arrogant do the show runners have to be to take a beloved franchise, go out of their way to decide to turn it into a TV show, smuggly shrug off the great story the games directly tell them in favor of "smh, Video Game story? Pfft. We can do better than a measly video game!" and then proceed to completely butcher it. It's like the entire production crew decided to take a course in how to create a television failure before getting to work on the Halo TV show.

This. I will never understand why people keep trying to make an adaptation of something and then go out of their way to completely change things. Why not just make a new Sci-Fi series if you hate Halo? Why go out of your way to make a Halo show, but then completely change everything the build-in audience likes about the source material? I didn't understand that with Dragonball Evolutions, I didn't understand that with Doom Annihilation and I didn't understand that with pretty much any Netflix adaptation and I don't understand it here either. If you want to adapt source material, FREAKING ADAPT THE SOURCE MATERIAL!

i remember reading those eric nylund halo novels when i was younger and it was awesome learning about the lore and how expansive it really was. he did a great job immersing you into the story and action sequences that all these showrunners had to do was just go with that or something similar but NOPE! arrogant bastards really think their version is gospel or something lol

I mean they just made it explicitly clear that they don't think very highly of the material they are adapting for their television show. They got a bunch of writers and directors that clearly don't like Halo. Which just boggles my mind, because if you were going to make a show about an already established and EXTREMELY successful franchise, why the absolute fuck would you try to make it for people that don't like that already established and EXTREMELY successful franchise? If you make a show about Halo, or Mass Effect, or Bayonetta, or Fallout, or literally ANYTHING, you should AT THE VERY LEAST make it for the people who are ALREADY fans of it. It doesn't make sense from a community perspective, and it makes even less sense from a business perspective. Only reason anybody at 343i has jobs is because Microsoft pays their bills. There is no way in hell that company could stay afloat on its own merits, and it's sickening to see it operate like a parasitic entity feeding off the fame and fortune of much more talented people (the original teams at Bungie).

@@quincycarra9107 its becoming glaringly obvious that these companies that get the rights to beloved franchises would rather burn it to the ground than allow others to give it the success and respect it deserves.
