    Ok, i'll be honest...Halo 2 is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO overrated, I actually loved the first game...the second was just disappointing, I remember hearing how orgasmic the multiplayer was and I remember sitting down watching it and falling asleep, it was a complete borefest.

    Here's hoping they don't fuck this movie up.

    Well at least the dedication to this movie could possibly ensure it's greatness.

    Core Design/EIDOS had little input with the Tomb Raider movies and while the first one was okay, the second completely sucked.

    I dont care who here hates TR, for the fans of the series..the movies just didnt do the game justice, the script was one dimensional..ugh!

    Yeah, Jolie looked good in the role but the issue was they completely abandoned the backstory of the game.

    Lara didn't have a good relationship with her parents, they disowned her at an early age (so why she was all "I love you" with daddy was a mystery). Lara apparentely fell in love during the movie, which is funny because Lara never had anything like that in the games..she's "too busy" for love.

    It's just little things like that, in addition to the fact they spent more time sexing up Angelina then on the plot, that annoyed me.

    Here's to hoping the Halo movie is GOOD.

    Personally, I thought it was the other way around -- the games didn't do the movie justice :lol:

    Not a big fan of the games... after the first one they went downhill fast, I thought. The movies were remotely interesting, but not much better off.

    The Tomb Raider games are God-awful. I can't stand any one of them.

    I have the perfect idea for this Halo movie.

    Master Chief is... Samuel L. Jackson.

    The Master Chief is, practically, an albino. He's roughly seven feet tall, too. Casting Samuel L. Jackson wouldn't make sense.

    Perhaps as Sergeant Johnson, though. Although, Sgt. Johnson's voice is a lot more gruff than ol' Sammy boy.

    It wouldn't be the first case of a white character being cast as a black guy.

    This is true, but I also don't think that Samuel L. Jackson has the voice for Master Chief.

    If they want to do it right, they should use the voice actors for the games.

    Hell, if they want to do it even more right, they should just make a damn CGI movie. That's what Halo 2 should've been.
