Halo The Movie

halo2box.jpgIt still boggles my mind. The opening weekend numbers for Halo 2, which not only blew away any other video game sales in history, but also out did any movie opening weekend numbers in history is just crazy. But you knew in the pit of your stomach that this was coming. The word leaking around AICN this morning is that it appears the engines are getting warmed up to getting a film adaptation of Halo into motion.

I’m not a big fan of game-to-film adaptations… they usually don’t work out to well no matter how good the game is. But I can understand how the marketing possibilities are too good to pass up for studios. And no game has ever made as much money as Halo… which pretty much automatically means no game-to-film movie will ever make as much as this one could. So you can bet your behind that one way or the other, even though it’s still just in it’s rumour stage right now, Halo the Movie will be in production within the next 3 months to capitalize on the hype going on around it as much as possible. It’s not a good idea to rush something that fast… but it may be good business… which really is all game-to-film movies are in the end.

But who am I kidding. I’d go see it as fast as the next guy.
