    My favorite part of this show is when Chief wore his helmet to drive a car, then took it off again after driving. Mf treated the armor like it's a motorcycle helmet.

      I think you might be right! Maybe not the loudest opinion, but I actually liked Halo better than The Mandalorian, especially towards the end of the first season. The Mandalorian is like playing on Easy - it's entertaining, but there's basically zero stakes because he's in title and baby Yoda is a money printer. Halo (both the games and the show) are much darker and grittier by comparison. Sure, Star Wars "tries" to go for that dark / apocalyptic vibe and every once in a while manages to pull it off, but that franchise has way too much baggage for that sort of atmosphere to be taken seriously.

      ​@evil-wombat you know they say everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I think you are abusing the privilege. JK but the halo show is the same thing because master chief is literally the main character and is in no real danger. Especially because if they actually did the show right it would also basically be a money printer.

    It's kinda funny that there was more drama and tension in 44 seconds of the Halo 4 scene when Cortana talks about how real the star orbiting Requiem is. And in that scene, Chief has his helmet on, but probably displays more emotion in Halo 4 than he ever does in this show, and that's WITHOUT seeing his face. You know who was the only other person who had a more sad actual facial expression in the games? Arbiter in Halo 2, when he learns of the Rings' true purpose.

    • @Redrik666
      @Redrik666 3 місяці тому +9

      The final scene of halo 4 where he loses cortana and then talks to laskey while staring at earth is super hard hitting and completely negates the "you can't convey emotion with a helmet" argument.

    Red Vs Blue is 18ish seasons long, with wildly varying quality from season to season, is older then UA-cam, was made with almost no budget, and is a comedy/parody. Yet it is better then this professionally made action/drama that probably cost more money in one season then all of the seasons of RvB combined.

      Master Chief and Cortana's relationship developed pretty well, until 343 made it creepy. It wasn't romantic, and it highlighted their character flaws which were primarily responsible for their strength. Chief is a human that operates like a machine; emotionless, pragmatic, driven by results. Cortana is an AI that has developed the yearning to feel, but it too intelligent to understand what it's like to be human.

    The thing with his helmet, is that I understand when took it off when he was in his home base, but in battle grounds? That doesn’t even make sense. Soldiers don’t take their helmets in battle grounds, that’s how you get shot in the head.

      Or when they have high-powered rifles pointed directly at their skulls. You'd swear the Spartans had potatoes for brains.
      To be fair, it is quite difficult to write characters smarter than yourself.

      Yup. It could have been a signal of transition between downtime scenes and fight scenes, in parallel with music which signals that transition (cue the Ominous Horns from Star Trek). It could have emphasized that there ARE some times and places he feels safe... and those could become fewer and fewer, if the story goes into "all territory is enemy territory". It could have even showed that he regrets HAVING to put on the helmet, that he wishes he could be a human more than he's killing machine, but alas, he was designed to be a killing machine and he's not in a situation where an ordinary human can survive.

      Reading the first few Halo books, there's quite a bit of mil-sim stuff thrown in which I liked.

    This is far and away the best honest trailer in a long time. Not dumping on the others, this one is just excellent. Top shelf work folks, well done.
