Yo yo, I’m Kazed, and this’ll be one of the first instalments of the awesomely stupendous blogs that’ll be featured here on Movieville.org.
So what I’m gonna go ahead and try to do is make this a weekly thing. Try and keep this thing going for as long as I can, talk about things that annoy me, a discussion, if you will. With myself. A discussion with myself.
For this instalment, I’ll be talking about video games turned into movies. Good topic? Good topic.
Let’s look at some examples here. Street Fighter, Mortal Combat, Street Fighter, DOA(Dead or Alive), Resident Evil, Doom, Halo (Nope. didn’t happen.)
Yes. Halo. I’m almost pretty effing annoyed and shocked I guess one could say, about the halting of Halo’s production.
Not long ago, in 2005 the Director and the Executive Producer of District 9- Neil Blomkamp and Peter Jackson, were signed on to make the movie. Later in 2006, we find out that the project was abandoned due to funding-
Variety reported today that Universal Pictures and 20th Century Fox, the two financing studios behind the hugely hyped Halo movie, have both backed out. The reports are apparently that the initial $135 million budget was being surpassed, and that “moneygrubbing” Universal and Fox could not get Microsoft to agree to a lower profit-sharing margin.- FirstShowing.net
Then skipping a little more ridiculousness and jumping into August 2009, we get this rumour-
Apparently Spielberg took a look at the script that Stuart Beattie had written in his free time for a Halo movie titled Halo: Fall of Reach and was “blown away” by it.- FirstShowing.net
Theeeen, Finally, fast forward to two days after the above was ‘rumoured’, we get this-
“We’re glad there’s still a lot of enthusiasm in the entertainment industry surrounding the idea of a Halo movie. That said, the Halo feature film remains on hold as we focus on projects like Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach.”- FirstShowing.net/Kotaku.com
After all of this, District 9 is released in which (I think) was an awesome film. Now, imagine this- Halo, live action, with near realistic effects, and a badass plot based on the original Halo.
I know there are alot of people who didn’t like District 9, not sure why that was at all to be honest, but, I think that a live-action Halo movie would be spectacular. I have yet to see a video game adaptation that has been done well. Well, Resident Evil wasn’t bad, then they ruined it after the 6th one. I know what I said.
Bottom line, if they do indeed choose to continue production of the Halo movie, it will simply be one of the most historic moments in film history, purely because of the crap that it went through- Only if it was done right.
That was it for this week’s Kazed Blogs, see you next time.

The E3′s been [url=http://www.swagvault.com/guild/][b]wow guides[/b][/url] disappointing fans and developers similar to one another, and we all recognize they need to waver things up or else. For the nonce we gather of a rumor local the games diligence occurrence as reported on Kotaku, and it seems like they’re thinking of breach it to the public.
There’s no valid word on this nevertheless – we’ve heard lots of “certified words” with reference to changes in the experience’s design, exclusively to be organize totally improper later on – although it’s been said that the apprehension has already been brought flippant in regard to scrutiny by the [url=http://www.swagvault.com/guild/][b]wow guides[/b][/url] board of the Entertainment Software Joining (ESA).
As a substitute for, what we set as an update on Gamespot is a “No Annotation” comment from ESA superior evil-doing president respecting communications and dig into, Priceless Taylor.
As we do every year, the ESA solicits feedback [url=http://www.swagvault.com/guild/][b]wow guides[/b][/url] and management from exhibitors and attendees on how finest to habituate and evolve the E3 Media & Obligation Zenith to confirm it meets their needs. Each element of the Zenith is opened in the interest of powwow, and that modify is continued to fulfil a productive and effectual experience. With regard to today’s published reports, the ESA does not observe on rumors and speculation, and wishes manufacture an advert about the details and logistics of the 2009 E3 Media & Business Apex at the seemly time.
There’s been some major fallout in E3′s wheel of pals, like Activision Blizzard who chose to leave out the knees-up this year, and in place of hold its own as it in the identical week. That’s individually from all the critics who’ve thrown in their two cents on the current construction of E3, [url=http://www.swagvault.com/guild/][b]wow guides[/b][/url] such as EA’s John Riccitiello, Ubisoft’s Laurent Detoc, and EA Sports’ Peter Moore.
Disenchant’s fathom if ESA can cook up something that last wishes as attract them retire from for the 2009 E3. Also gaol it posted here in search more updates.
