@ElvistheAlien as a huge Halo fan, I don’t hate the show I just disappointed, but on the flip side as a huge fallout fan as well I’m happy with the fallout show 😅 It’s really conflicting for me😂

PLEASE, you, and EVERYONE, if you haven't already, embrace the One True Only God YHWH Jehovah, Only One Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son and Lord and Savior of our souls and the Only One Holy Spirit. God is good. God is love. Jesus is Lord. Jesus IS coming. Your soul depends on it! I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died. God worked through Jesus Christ to save our souls. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins. Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Be baptized in The Holy Spirit, and if He wills, water as well. Repent of your sins, accept God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit into your heart, that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that all who believe on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father Jehovah God but through Him. Not long after I got saved I prayed to God for help understanding the Holy Bible, and that same day someone knocked on my door asking me if I wanted to understand the Bible. The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil". LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."

@elvisthealien would you say the rooster teeth red vs blue has a better plot?

@@davidperez4028 RvB is a masterpiece in story telling compared to the Halo Show lol

54:40 "Infected by the covenant?!" 😀

This comment sounds exactly like what you think the show feels like, but more feces

On one hand this sounds about right, but on the other... _you give them too much credit in regards to their intellectual capacity._ What you've described is still too much of "high thinking" for them.

what they did was ther put all the books through a shredder. Then gave the shredded paper to an AI and told it to make something

Hey man, what you're describing is high art

These comments are so ruthless 😂😭

Not just that John’s backstory was always kept at arms length you had hints of it then it was back to being the hero

I'm reading the books and you get some information in "Fall of Reach", but Nylund put leagues more care in how he handles the material than whoever is responsible for this mess.

​@redwiltshire1816 even the books weren't too in depth.

@@superk9letsplays419 exactly plus having less background lets us players feel like we are in Johns boots the show however feels more like I’m just a fly on the wall

I know right? If people could miss the point of Halo THIS badly, I shudder to imagine how they'll butcher Gears of War. Yes. They're making a Gears of War film and TV show. _Take Cover._

Dan Cudmore, who played Chief in Forward Unto Dawn did the same!

@@maxmazzotti6651 He understood the assignment as well.

The way Din Djarin is depicted in the Mando season 1 is almost a beat for beat recreation of Master Chief from the games.

Karl Urban is always awesome. Always a win.

Karl is cool, from nz

It was awful brother 😢

Gets him more views

Because it's fun to shit on it.

@pietro6032 hell ya, it's funny

Hate watch

They should have never ever took his helmet off. It would have been so much better and they could just hire some cosplayer, like darth vadar was done, and then it would be so much cheaper without a main actor and probably way less takes necessary. Just do it like all the cutscenes and make him alone with cortana for most of it, with some mysteries and shit. Barely any dialogue, barely any actors and it would have been a thousand times better. They not only ruined the franchise, they spent way more money than they even needed to.

@@D3cepti0ns It's fine if Chief took his helmet off, he does it all the time in the books and he takes it off in the games, just we never saw it.

@@dillydrawsthey shoulda compromised between the two though and satisfy both game fans and book fans. Keep his helmet on most of the time. Even in the books they “say” he takes his helmet off but I haven’t had anybody be able to show me his canonical picture. An imaginary image you have in your mind of chief is much different than putting an actor on screen and saying “this is chief.” but if you have a link to an 343 or old bungie approved image that looks like the actor we have now im willing to to eat my words. In game all we’ve seen was him fully as a kid but that doesn’t really show how he looks now. As an adult we’ve seen his eyes and pale skin. Pale from being underneath the armor long amounts of time. Not a California tan. Now after all that said i’m starting to like the show more, and I’m coping with hope for season 3 finally taking off.

u mean like a perfect soldier? Why u described Chief (in books and games) in odd way XD?

"record shows, the spartan routinely exhibited mildly sociopathic tendencies, difficulty with socialization" jeez, even 434 got it right.

And glued it all together with the shredded remains of the books

Then forgot the story half way through and just winged it

no, not even that. They have never played halo, they learned about halo from a guy who played call of duty and watched the lastest star wars movies.

A Hollywood production not respecting lore or cannon? Say it ain't so!

Master Cheeks

Yes it is like John got the Jake Skywalker treatment right? THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 10 F*CKING YEARS NOW!!!!!!

Given how standard Master Chief's armor is, and how common the name John is, I just choose to believe that he's another random Spartan in the UNSC. Only problem would be the mentions of "117" and "Chief/Master Chief" in the show, but at least he's referred to as simply "John" pretty often in it as well.

@@BenYang-xo7cg It’s not THAT serious, guys. Just ignore it for the mediocre out-of-touch Hollywood adaptation that it is and don’t let it “tarnish” your view of the source material.

​@@jaythomas468True.

The shitty writing isn't doing him any favors either though. It's not as if the other actors are any better. He's great as Mad Sweeney in _American Gods_ imho.

I don't know about anyone else, but every time I see his face, I just see Pornstache. So, he would probably be more convincing as Master Chief with the helmet on.

The whole 'I can't act without my fACe' is clearly bs. Out of the six movement components of acting taught in high school, only two actually require the use of your face and that is also ignoring the twelve vocal components also taught at that level. He is effectively saying 'I can't act with more complexity than a high-schooler'

Bro Pedro Pascal acted with his helmet for Mandalorian which is a comparable character to Master Cheif.

Interviews are PR press from the studio, paramount's show runners spoon feed people like him talking points. He is just saying what they want him to, hence the helmet dialog being an attempt to be in front of the very predictable criticism they were going to receive.

My mum didn't get what I had a problem with for this show until I explained it similarly to this. When it clicked she was like lol I get it now.

A sitcom of the Dursleys would've been a better show.

Who's Harry Potter?

Hahaha yes 😂

Nah, paramount got sold….halo is a waste of money….they will cancelled it.

@@Ghostleeee dont get my hopes up like that XD

That one was ass too

@@GhostleeeeConsidering they renewed it for Season 2 despite Season 1 been heavily disliked, I wouldn’t be surprised if they go ahead with Season 3

@@dylanburton4955 we don't know the background. it might've been contractually cleared for multiple seasons from the very start

Jimmy Rings*

I forgot The halo series existed after season 1 ended

There's a funeral in the first book lol it's when John learns from Mendez that your men WILL die under your orders, it was like the 4th chapter

@@subsume7904 It's been a couple of years since I read it, so it must have slipped my mind. Thanks for the info.

@@Norbert_Sattler yea, it's after the augmentations are done and most of the spartans die. It wasn't a burial though, they were on a medical space station so they put them in coffins and launched them into space

For me it's pretty obvious that they aknowledged the critique by fans and kinda, sorta tried to rewrite the 2nd season "better" and more lore-friendly than the first to please said fans. But they failed and the show is so fundamentaly bad that it's practically unsalvageble.

And he tried to kill Chief during a training exercise

I just listened to Ghost's of Onyx (Creation of the spartan III program) on audible. That was a banger of a story that easily deserved an adaptation, and Master Chief is barely even in it!

26:00 WHAT.

Looks like throwing money out of a window is super fun ?!

People make shows that people watch. Hate-watching is still watching.

Hate watches make the show money, the makers probably saw the numbers and thought people liked it

​@@stephenbyers6173oh no they know people hate it, they make their money through outrage because it's easier than making something genuinely good.

People keep watching the shit

Yes he was! He stayed true to the Chief in the games

And he never took his helmet off!

I rewatch it whenever I remember this show exists

Don't forget halo legends. that anime was awesome. That deserves a second season. Not this shit.

@@jurassicarkjordanisgreat1778Absolutely agreed!!!!!

From what i understand, pedro is no longer in that category. He hasnt actually been the body actor for mando since season 2, as itd cost to much. So hes just a va at this point and they have a body double. Only time pedro is on set is when you see his face.

Turn all the actions scenes to the bare minimum and fill each episode with bullshit dialogues written by a 10y old child… you got Halo tv show

​@@MHAAAAANZ yeah it's literally a drama show with hints of action here and there lol

He has a different name, so it shouldn't be the same. Also the one from the games became Arbiter after the first ring was destroyed, which could take 4 more seasons.

I honestly thought it was him

we dont talk about the halo show*

Rule 1 of being a fan of anything: Defend it and call out the posers, tourists and woke sociopaths who do not know jack or sh*t about the IP.

As far as I’m concerned, this show doesn’t exist

Even then it was like only 2 civilians. Rest spoke Anerican English too.

@@Oppen1945 The entire colony was Hungarian

@@davefromhungary6908 Yeah...at the time of its fall, all of Reach, the most important planet besides Earth, was exclusively Hungarian. And all of its peole talked Hungarian, a language way more easier to learn and common than English...

Glass it with holy fire!

To be fair, Velma was planned to have two seasons before season one officially aired, from what I've read.

It has nothing to do with hate watchers not even a bit. People MASSIVELY over estimate the amount of people who do that and even if they do they aren't watching more than 1 MAYBE 2 episodes max. The reality is the vast majority of shows good or not are greenlit for 2 seasons long before they ever release maybe even before they start production. They just wait to announce a second season until after to drum up attention and (hopefully) more watches.

They are making a second season of Arcane?

@@viper5638 yes, coming out in november

We should have NEVER seen MC's face... ever. Just get an iconic voice for him. I wouldnt even mind finding someone new for the voice to separate it from the games. But just seeing this next-level normal actor guy is just baffling to me. I only played the first 3 Halo games, but I always imagined a SEVERELY effed' up guy under the helmet. Like, someone closer to Deadpool (all beaten, burnt and scarred), not GQ model guy. Wtf???

Like Abba once sang: "Money, money, money!"

This is the only reason I have *one* show I'm excited about this year, or for the foreseeable future: Arcane. The amount of love and care for the characters and lore in that show is mind boggling. And they still did the same thing these Halo hack writers are claiming. They adapted the base canon for two reasons - Tell a unique story, and adapt the lore to better fit within the constraints of a TV show. I wish we had more Arcanes.

It's apparently because the culture at 343 was (and largely still is) aggressively anti-Bungie, doing anything to distance themselves from the original games. Numerous sources state that they refused to take on any previous bungie staff for Halo 4 and 5, the culture encouraged needlessly hostile attitudes towards the previous games and developers, and they obviously thought they knew better than Bungie prior the overwhelmingly poor reception to Halo 5. So much so that they needed to literally hire an ex-Bungie lead help make Infinite when they realised they were circling the drain. This project was greenlit back in the days before they thought they'd fuck Halo up, hit serious problems because of their arrogance which meant millions had to be spent in reshoots over years and years, and now we're seeing "Star Wars sequel trilogy" style back-peddling on their original vision with very mixed results.

the problem is that the show never addresses that at any point. So anyone who watches it that didn't read the books or play Halo Reach won't understand it

@@prolix3557 Perhaps but I didnt watch the scene so I cant say if it truly gave the context clues or not I was just saying that that is what they are referencing. I have never seen seen the halo show and probably wont watch it but I was just trying to explain a reference to halo lore is all.

Yeah it's not supposed to be the same Arbiter we think, since Season 2 is still pre-Alpha Halo, so don't worry, they still have a chance to butcher Thel

@@latticeddreams dont butcher my boy ;-;

Make it a series with that level of CGI and that attentive to lore, or don't make it. If it's not financially viable to do that way.. DON'T make it. Worst thing you can do is take a generic sci-fi show with 'meh' level FX and slap a Halo paint job on it.

Arbiter is a title, not a singular character. The Arbiter here is completely different than the one in Halo 2, which is completely different from the Arbiter from Halo Wars, who is not only introduced timeline wise before Halo 2 but who also gets his ass killed at the end of Halo Wars.

At least this Arbiter isn't Thel, they called him some other name I haven't bothered to remember because you can replace him with a cardboard cutout and not miss much.

To do this, the writers would have to play the games and that's a no-no.

Literally.

You sir are correct!

Obviously, since Thel is a hundered thousand times more compelling than this cardboard cutout.

More like MasterChef, but they aren’t cooking anything good

Master brief!!! Heh

Jimmy Rings

In the game they didnt even meet on reach. We only saw Chief in cryo and Cortana was a delivery package from Noble Six to the Pillar of Autumn. Chief only woke up in CE already close to the first ring.

​@@PhantomMiria22 yeah Bungie themselves broke a lot of lore with the game, wish they followed the books they were much more epic, also chief trained on Reach alongside Cortana before all of this

Should just make the show a giant meme parody, at least then it would make sense as to why MC has his helmet off. Could make Cortana a person that just constantly nagging him throughout the series. Team up with Red V.S Blue, so much could be done as a funny parody.

Indeed

The armor was taken from them, so I guess you didn't actually watch the show.

It was awesome, that's how

Because it was approved before Season 1 even came out.

Because of hate watchers

Because One Piece is a terrible show ? Over 900 episodes is just ridiculous for any show to go on for.

@@samuelgeaney7556I could never get into one piece due to the episode count

Are you saying Naruto is the series with +50% filler? Because Jesus Christ OP has the worst filler of all. Every episode has filler. It’s stretched out and a third of the episode is recaps. Either way it has nothing to do with Naruto, he just didn’t like One Piece or something. It’s a bad comparison anyways but it’s probably about the episode count. Also let’s calm down here, Naruto is still more popular in the west than One Piece is.

The show has elements that they did lift from the source material. Small elements that they then twist into mutated forms, but they clearly read some spark notes.
