Please be good.
“In related news, the director of the Halo TV series will be taking over artistic control.” /s
I will never not be mad at that.
Let’s take the show halo fans have wanted for decades now, bring in a bunch of people who know nothing about the franchise, forbid them from learning about the franchise, and then we’ll market to people who don’t care about the franchise.
Corpo marketing big brains right there. Halo has one of the largest followings in gaming and still that wasn’t enough. Hell the fans would have encouraged others to watch but nooo had to make it bland and generic for non fans. And they didn’t even do that well!
Oh man, I’ve not played halo since the 360 and I didn’t know there was a TV programme being made, what was it that made it so bad?
It’s a lot of things, but what I said there was true. They literally forbade the writers from playing any of the games or reading the books. They wanted to “attract a new audience” and “make something new”. So now instead of the TV show all of us fans wanted we have something with master chief and if you squint your eyes it might look like a halo plotline
That’s… a bold decision. Who pays for the rights to a well-known character/IP with lots of fans and then decides they want to attract a new audience instead? Guessing it was pretty poorly received?
50% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Idk what the idiots in corporate marketing were thinking, but in my dreams they were all fired.
Hard to say but a lot of Amazon shows have been pretty solid.
I hope this show is about nothing but collecting forks.
Well, it looks like Fallout. The people behind the costumes and set design certainly did good work. Hopefully it ends up feeling like Fallout too.
It looks like Bethesdas Fallout.
Hopefully the writing will be better.
