Why Forward Unto Dawn Should Be Made Into A Feature...




Having watched the entire live-action Halo series, there was a lot of talk going on among fans about wanting a full-fledged feature film. Here are a few reasons why it'd be really cool to have a movie based off of Forward Unto Dawn. 



Originality...


Hastati Squad ready for action!

Simply put, Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn is bursting with original content unheard of anywhere in the Halo universe.

Forward Unto Dawn doesn't seem like it's geared strictly towards fans of the franchise. Essentially, it will appeal to both parties. Those looking to expand their knowledge of the mythology, as well as gamers that aren't familiar with the story. Even some of the PS3 friends found it entertaining. Probably because Forward Unto Dawn is written with a back story in mind. Sooner or later, 343 Industries will almost certainly have to expand on the conclusion. 



Can Cortana get any sexier?

Stellar performances...


Both the cast and crew did an astounding job of bringing this concept to life. Hats off to the eye-popping visuals and the artists behind them. I was thoroughly impressed by everyone's acting. That feeling of thrill of one being shot at from multiple directions, shrapnel flying everywhere, shock waves shaking up the core, is delivered impeccably.

A Link To The Game...


Thomas Lasky
Gamers don't ask much of video game adaptations - other than the fact that the film should stay true to the respected game. Video game adaptations rarely work out well -clears throat- like that horrid Prince of Persia movie starring Jake Gyllenhaal. It couldn't get any worse than that. The movie felt as though it didn't have any roots to the game. Which is never cool! 

The Master Chief making an appearance = epic!

I'm not too sure if it's a good idea that Microsoft should take it on itself to produce a potential Halo feature film - rather than having other studios buying into it. 

Patience, my fellow Halo fans. Who knows: Maybe 343 has a few other tricks left in them to bring Halo into the media. Here's hoping we see more of Lasky soon!
