I hope everyone enjoyed the adventures of Jimmy Rings and friends in the world of Mass Effect... there were no cheeks clapped this season which, is blasphemy >:(
Chances are this is all propaganda and the only aliens glassing cities will be your own governments using invisible energy rays able to fine tune to whatever material they wish to destroy (steel beams) while ascertaining the idea we're being invaded and the United Nations needs a Space Command--ie one world government--to save us all. At which point they enslave all of humanity or destroy the world

This show has an uncanny valley feeling about it. Any time it starts to seem the least bit normal or promising, the upside down version of Halo spins it’s head around and smiles through you like a Cheshire Cat.
HALO: THE TV SHOW show,where they use fake advertisng of posters , and nothing of it happend in the show, where more than half the cast were women acting like girl bosses, with multiple diversity couples and men being talked down by said women, where only the few men characters die, where girl bosses get more character development than the actual male spartans or the race swapped captain keyes. where the covenent only brings swords to an invasion and run around like zombies, where the rest of the covenant is no where to be found. where the arbiter has no problem killing his own race yet he turns around and lets master cheeks stand up (unless the 5'0 woman leader of the covenant yells at him to not kill him like in episode 2) where there is not a single scene of marines fighting, where the few marines they had, don't know how to turn on their flashlight in the dark....I can keep going but I will stop here
One day, when A.I. generation is good enough, i will download and prompt all the halo lore, books and video games to make an actual good halo series/movie.
That last bit "They took my image, bent it for their own purpose. So I took it back. This armor doesn't belong to them, it belongs to me." Makes me feel on the meta level the show writers/makers talking to fans saying F you this belongs to us.
This isn't Halo, It's not even close. Who and why are they doing this to such a beloved franchise? The people who support this, are the reason we keep getting absolute garbage. It hurts.
Literally played the old Halo game to "wash the taste out of my mouth" from this show. SO MUCH SOURCE MATERIAL, and they adapted none of it to make a stronger saga.
1/10 is too generous for being Halo but I do agree as a general Sci-Fi show, 1/10 is fitting. Maybe 2/10 for set pieces and the extremely limited combat we do get
I can't believe some people are actually saying the season finale was good. I can't believe our standards for this series have gotten so ridiculously low that people are starting to accept this garbage. It's fucking sad.
I've never been more disappointed in a fanbase before. I legit feel like I'm going crazy cause of the people defending this literal shit show. All because they got two episodes of "Halo action"
Alot of tourists claiming this is good and not realizing what this could have been. If I had a dime everytime I saw "I never played the games or read the books, but im enjoying the show!"
It’s ridiculous too because it’s not even a good show besides being a bad adaptation. If this show existed the exact same and everything else Halo did not exist this show would still be terribly written and a horrific production.
In halo 2 he has the chip in his helmet the entire time. SgtMaj. Johnson removes it from his helmet at the beginning of 3, Masterchief takes it back after waking up and remembers his promise to Cortana. In the games the chip thingy is Cortana's way of using Chief's armor systems. In the show, it makes no sense, she can go wherever she wants if the plot needs her to.
Yeah that bothered me too, in the games (1-3) Cortana directs Chief several times to place her down in specific spots, so it’s not like she can magically teleport wherever she wants. When aboard enemy ships or in places like high charity there are usually covenant security walls in place that Cortana needs time to breach in order for both herself and Chief to proceed/gather intel.
The interesting thing about this show: I get so happy when any of the "show" characters die or is in a position they at least might die. I'm honestly rooting for the Flood here, wish the grave mind would just consume everyone and free us from this Monument to All Their Stupidity
@@Crimea_River For sure, I'm certain that if I were to continue watching the show, my support of the Flood would end the second the Gravemind starts talking. Someone needs to get to the Ark and fire all the Halos, end all life in this miserable "Silver Timeline".
This show is the definition of pure unfiltered slop. The writers don't give a shit. The directors don't give a shit. The actors don't give a shit. A soulless product just shat out for the lowest common denominator and NOT for fans of Halo. There is zero reason for this show to have "Halo" in the title.
@@johnnyfive9815 There is a difference in having an opinion & being able to analyse/critique how media is produced. Halo is a very poorly made show with little respect for the fans who without them, it would've never existed. That is fact. Not opinion
3:05. Thank you. The dialogue \writing in this show is so inconsistent and abysmal. So he helps the UNSC, but then he abandons them and lets Kai sacrifice herself. But then Kai is alive. But then he gets to the ring. Kills the arbiter but lets Mackee live. But then when the UNSC appears in the ring, he says "oh that's a problem". Bro what the fuck am I watching? Am i really supposed to turn my brain off and just accept everything i see on screen? WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS HAPPENING TO TELEVISION?
Fans of the show always say “the show is actually really good” or something similar, but can never say what it is that they like about it because it can’t be the writing, or the action scenes that mostly happen offscreen or the original characters..
I remember when a season had 20-25 episodes and how now days they have shortened seasons to 10 episodes for this generation that loses attention fast. That being said, this show should be canceled as it is a disgrace to the Halo franchise. I feel 343 is basically another Disney handed an incredible franchise like Star Wars and just exploiting as much money as they can get off the name alone.
I feel like Season 2 is just main universe Ackeron's fanfic. The dude gets put in charge of the spartan program, captures halsey, captures soren, decks to dick around with chief pointlessly for like 4 eps, still gets his spartan III program, has a new tragic backstory with his sister, gets more focus on his personal life with his father, and at the end of the day, gets to be a hero
It's not the same arbiter. He has an entire different name - Gar whatever it is. Our arbiter is Thel Vadam. Unless they didn't plan on him ever coming unto the show, then that's a different story
@paihobbes8680 Fully agree. For the grounded human element you have the marines and their connection to the Covenant carrier. It practically writes itself.
Denis Villeneuve should direct a halo movie. Loosely follow the events of halo one. Starts at the pillar of autumn arriving at halo. Doesn’t have to be canonically accurate but should be thematically, aesthetically, and tonal consistent to halo 1. Steve Downes as voice of chief. Keep chief off screen for the most part. When he is on screen do him right. Follow Sargent J or some other squad around for the most part. Horror elements ramped up the whole time.
@@befru well, yeah. But it's sad that the only Halo content we can enjoy right now is Halo fans shitting on the latest Halo product. I want Halo to be celebrated for it's merits, not made fun of because of their poor handling of the franchise.
It's very clear from the portrayal of the flood that the writers were told the flood were zombies. ALMOST ANY Halo fan could have told them otherwise. Please Microsoft cancel this abomination of a show.
It really wouldn't surprise me if someone said they were "parasitic space zombies" and the writers misunderstood and used Resident Evil as the basis for the Flood rather than the Halo wiki because _"Eh? All zombies are the same, right? If you've seen one, you've seen them all."_ These seem to have more in common with the "modified Romero zombies" from Resident Evil, rather than the "Lovecraftian eldritch abominations" from Halo novels.
No bro you don’t get it! It’s really good! You just need to get through all 9 episodes of season 1 first, and then most of season 2 but then there’s a good bit! Peak Halo! We boys eating good!
Achem… "To go on this journey with your protagonist, you're not going to be able to bring an audience along in a long-form story without having access to a character's face, which tells you what they're feeling, how they think about everything. That access to a character's emotional life, over the course of time, is what makes you empathise and connect with a character.” - Some amateur half wit. So before TV shows were ever a thing, Ancient Greeks were the first to present dramatic presentations in the form of theater. For centuries Greeks enjoyed drama, comedy, music, and more… and you know what they wore on their heads most of the time in the theater? MASKS AND HELMETS. How did they convey emotion and more without being able to see the actor’s face? With good dialogue, body language, music ques, and more. THE GREEKS UNDERSTOOD IN THE 6TH CENTURY THAT YOU DON’T NEED TO SEE SOMEONE’S FACE TO CONNECT WITH THEM, BUT THESE BRAIN DEAD TURDS IN THE YEAR 2024 DON’T. We are literally evolving backwards.
"If we go back to Ancient Greece, it is said these masks were used in early plays to represent the emotions the characters were feeling. It was easier for audience members who were sitting far away from the stage to see the masks and the emotions they were portraying." The whole purpose of those masks was to show the emotional state of the character: happy or sad. It's actually kind of impressive that you wrote that without understanding you were undermine your own point.
@@hoos3014 Oddly enough, a characters emotions can change throughout an entire scene, but the character would normally only have a single mask to represent their face. To quote the British Museum article: “Masks had certain practical uses: their distinct features made characters recognizable at a distance; they made it easier for the three actors used in plays to play more than one part each; they enabled the all-male casts to play both men and women and some experts claim that the masks helped amplify the voice so that it could be heard at the back of the large open-air theatres. However, the most significant role of the mask was that of transformation: an ordinary man could go beyond his real identity and become a mythological hero or a lusty satyr, a foolish old man or a beautiful young woman, a god or a slave. In this disguise he could say and do things that could not be said and done in everyday life, and could present to the audience events, actions and ideas that were horrifying or ridiculous, inspiring or fantastic.”
Seems like someone learned that Halo has space zombies and somehow opened the Resident Evil wiki by mistake. And what did they do with the Spartan-III's, make them the ODST's of the Silver Timeline?
I don't understand why they brought the Flood into the story so soon, the war with the Covenant has barely started but no quick we need to move onto to next humanity ending species.And it's so annoying that we still have to rely on lazy writing with characters being so incredibly dumb to get the plot to work. I do love the through line of Master Chief always bailing out on his fellow soldiers after briefly fighting along side them. Also yeah why does M/C even care about Cortana he never seemed to even like her that much certainly not enough to risk his life/mission.
Brrrruuuuuuuuhhhhh I was waiting for this to droppp, thank you for being the only creator to rip this apart the proper way. Nobody mentions that spikes explosion was simulated to have a similar effect to how it'd be if the Halo actually let a blast off. If you didn't laugh when makee said she was a demon too, we wasn't watching the same show 🤣🤣
The funny thing is I have hated the show so far and I recognize all of the plot contrivances, understand all of the things they’ve fumbled, but the one thing I genuinely disagree with a lot of people about is the Flood. People are mischaracterizing the infection as being inaccurate, but this is the first visual representation of a spore outbreak we’ve seen, and considering many of them mutate within an hour, I genuinely am happy with at least that. I’m not excusing the show, or the finale. My ultimate point in this wall of text is simply to say that I have hope that they’re headed in a more agreeable direction. I don’t think it’s right for people to hate on others for having hope. Opinions are something we can’t do anything about, but I also think that some of the people who despise the show refuse to accept anything, whether it has good or bad implications. Honestly the community makes me almost as sad as the show does.
I'm a simple man... just give me a grunt squad holding dual plasma rifles and retreating for their dear life screaming "DEMONS" while being both dirty fighting and glory hounding with suicide grenades for the survival of their squad. At this point I don't care if Jimmy Rings is the dunce of the SPARTAN II program, nor if we are really forced to make this into a "feminine chosen one" type of story. I really, really just want them try to do Yayap - was it Yap-Yap? - on the Silent Cartographer.
I liked the flood scenes, in my mind the slower infection makes sense, considering this was a spore infection which we have not seen before. This is almost even a pre feral stage infection.
The flood did look like shit. To be fair the introduction of the flood in the books made what ever it can in contact with be more aggressive. I agree with you though they dropped the ball.
If the show not canon why are y’all so pressed about it n idk why y’all think Kai Is dead if chief survive a crash landing on a ship into the halo why can’t Kai survive crashing the ship y’all don’t make sense
I think something in Season 1 set up Jimmy Rings to be able to fist Cortana. However season one is so bad that im never going to re watch it to confirm. FUCK YOU Silver Timeline writers
why all the hate comments on this show? yes i played the games read all the books and watch everything halo movie this show isnt as bad as yall make it seem
10:50 That plot line with Kwan and The Protectors … I “THINK” that they were trying to say/trying to go for that The Flood and The Precursors are intertwined. One cannot exist without the other. That the Precursors were tying to protect the universe while the flood were trying to consume and assimilate. While in the game lore the Precursors went into a state of hibernation. Which turned them into dust. That dust became corrupted and they essentially held a grudge for the Forerunners…and they just want to consume and assimilate. The Precursors could assume any form, they were that powerful. And omnipotent. Here they split the two together.
I agree with everything you said. Idk why people advocate for this bad show with a halo paintjob on it. It isnt halo. All we want is a good adaptation. We dont need it recreated frame by frame. Idk how they can do this to us
They found the flood in Onyx. Seriously? They found it on a shield world that was designed to protect its people from the flood. I don't know what the writers were on when writing this.
Really sad to see Master chief in his armor for only 1st ep, ep 7 (really short not that long), and last ep 8 ... really bummed out Vannak died from Var Gatanai the other Arbiter would've been more fitting if it was Thel Vadam the Arbiter. I felt it was a fitting end to Vannak but the war felt like it hasn't been that long or even close to the middle would've prefer him to die during those moments in time. I really like this video hope for more other content.
The coin flip scene is more symbolism than him actually using the coin to decide. If you remember how they bring up how he guessed heads 11 times in a row which is almost statistically impossible basically what I’m saying is he already knew what choice he was gonna make he just flips the coin for the fuck of it
well it’s heavily implied that the flood spore(super cell clusters) acts differently from we expected due to our more accustomed experience with the pod type infection form Instead of the pure package of the flood super cells(spore) the pod form is the one that that shortly transforms the living and dead into combat forms As it’s shown in the Monalisa graphic novel flood infection by contact with the cells themselves act differently from a fully formed combat form since it still can resurrect the recently deceased and needs intact bodies to turn into combat forms but it takes a bit longer for the complete transformation to finish , dismantled bodies are converted into bio mass, there are also some disturbing moments in the Monalisa story from the halo novels collection because one flood combat form was noticed to be attempting to smile and was trying to hide its combat claw folded behind its human arm, yes there was a proto grave mind in the process of formation.
What is truly AMAZING about this show is that it actually got made. What I mean is imagine being given the Star Wars of this Generation, a Golden Goose, a license to PRINT MONEY.....because that's what Halo is. Imagine being given all of that and still utterly failing. This show is like spiking the Ball at the finish line, like kicking the Soccer Ball over the net when the Goalie is lying prostate ten feet from the Goal, like two Heavyweight Boxers nocking each other out simultaneously with the first Punch in the first round of a Championship fight. Any half decent adaptation of the source material would have lead to Game of Thrones levels of ratings and marketing tie ins with action figures, T shirts and an infinite numbers of products. The Actors, Directors and Producers would have become household names with career opportunities falling from the sky. This show could have paid for Paramount's budget for the next DECADE !!! They had all that opportunity and they left it all on the table and for what? Girl bosses with plot armour, an Alienated Fan base, ruined careers Flood zombies ripped off from the last of us and most importantly ....no money.... The only saving grace of this show is that in five years no one will remember it at which point hopefully someone at least Simi talented with half a brain can reboot it..... Jesus Christ what a missed opportunity.

The entire season of Jimmy fighting the UNSC was just symbolism of Pablo hating the fans.
bruh why are they trying so hard with the coin flipping, like its supposed to be such a HUGE part of the character
It's very clear from the portrayal of the flood that the writers were told the flood were zombies. ALMOST ANY Halo fan could have told them otherwise. Please Microsoft cancel this abomination of a show.
It really wouldn't surprise me if someone said they were "parasitic space zombies" and the writers misunderstood and used Resident Evil as the basis for the Flood rather than the Halo wiki because _"Eh? All zombies are the same, right? If you've seen one, you've seen them all."_
These seem to have more in common with the "modified Romero zombies" from Resident Evil, rather than the "Lovecraftian eldritch abominations" from Halo novels.
It was so stupid to me that he never wanted to wear his helmet, but now that his visor is actually broken, he wants to wear it.
😂😂😂😂😂 💯
No bro you don’t get it! It’s really good! You just need to get through all 9 episodes of season 1 first, and then most of season 2 but then there’s a good bit! Peak Halo! We boys eating good!
Halos back fellarinos!!!
The only way I can somewhat accept the whole Shaman lady, is if they reveal it later on that she's the Librarian. Even then, still garbo.
Really enjoying these videos man keep it up :)
Its not an airborne virus? Miranda literally said “you didnt touch it did you?” And she lied and said no and was the first one to turn.
Achem… "To go on this journey with your protagonist, you're not going to be able to bring an audience along in a long-form story without having access to a character's face, which tells you what they're feeling, how they think about everything. That access to a character's emotional life, over the course of time, is what makes you empathise and connect with a character.” - Some amateur half wit.
So before TV shows were ever a thing, Ancient Greeks were the first to present dramatic presentations in the form of theater. For centuries Greeks enjoyed drama, comedy, music, and more… and you know what they wore on their heads most of the time in the theater? MASKS AND HELMETS. How did they convey emotion and more without being able to see the actor’s face? With good dialogue, body language, music ques, and more.
THE GREEKS UNDERSTOOD IN THE 6TH CENTURY THAT YOU DON’T NEED TO SEE SOMEONE’S FACE TO CONNECT WITH THEM, BUT THESE BRAIN DEAD TURDS IN THE YEAR 2024 DON’T. We are literally evolving backwards.
"If we go back to Ancient Greece, it is said these masks were used in early plays to represent the emotions the characters were feeling. It was easier for audience members who were sitting far away from the stage to see the masks and the emotions they were portraying."
The whole purpose of those masks was to show the emotional state of the character: happy or sad.
It's actually kind of impressive that you wrote that without understanding you were undermine your own point.
@@hoos3014 Oddly enough, a characters emotions can change throughout an entire scene, but the character would normally only have a single mask to represent their face.
To quote the British Museum article: “Masks had certain practical uses: their distinct features made characters recognizable at a distance; they made it easier for the three actors used in plays to play more than one part each; they enabled the all-male casts to play both men and women and some experts claim that the masks helped amplify the voice so that it could be heard at the back of the large open-air theatres. However, the most significant role of the mask was that of transformation: an ordinary man could go beyond his real identity and become a mythological hero or a lusty satyr, a foolish old man or a beautiful young woman, a god or a slave. In this disguise he could say and do things that could not be said and done in everyday life, and could present to the audience events, actions and ideas that were horrifying or ridiculous, inspiring or fantastic.”
Watching the master chief in this is like a mascot showing up with out the mascot outfit every single time
I wouldn't mind not having to see Pablo Schreiber's face again. Ever.
Seems like someone learned that Halo has space zombies and somehow opened the Resident Evil wiki by mistake.
And what did they do with the Spartan-III's, make them the ODST's of the Silver Timeline?
I don't understand why they brought the Flood into the story so soon, the war with the Covenant has barely started but no quick we need to move onto to next humanity ending species.And it's so annoying that we still have to rely on lazy writing with characters being so incredibly dumb to get the plot to work. I do love the through line of Master Chief always bailing out on his fellow soldiers after briefly fighting along side them. Also yeah why does M/C even care about Cortana he never seemed to even like her that much certainly not enough to risk his life/mission.
They literally just skimmed the halo wiki for names and events for season 2
For the Flood, I think they skimmed the Resident Evil wiki.
@@vegeta002 or The last of us lol
"Byyyy thee Riiiinnggss thiiis iss too mucchhhh!"
Brrrruuuuuuuuhhhhh I was waiting for this to droppp, thank you for being the only creator to rip this apart the proper way. Nobody mentions that spikes explosion was simulated to have a similar effect to how it'd be if the Halo actually let a blast off. If you didn't laugh when makee said she was a demon too, we wasn't watching the same show 🤣🤣
Thanks for making these, i hated every single second watching.
Lmao the man said.. she could kill every single person here… and the flood could clean house on Onyx base hahahah
The funny thing is I have hated the show so far and I recognize all of the plot contrivances, understand all of the things they’ve fumbled, but the one thing I genuinely disagree with a lot of people about is the Flood. People are mischaracterizing the infection as being inaccurate, but this is the first visual representation of a spore outbreak we’ve seen, and considering many of them mutate within an hour, I genuinely am happy with at least that. I’m not excusing the show, or the finale. My ultimate point in this wall of text is simply to say that I have hope that they’re headed in a more agreeable direction. I don’t think it’s right for people to hate on others for having hope. Opinions are something we can’t do anything about, but I also think that some of the people who despise the show refuse to accept anything, whether it has good or bad implications. Honestly the community makes me almost as sad as the show does.
I'm a simple man... just give me a grunt squad holding dual plasma rifles and retreating for their dear life screaming "DEMONS" while being both dirty fighting and glory hounding with suicide grenades for the survival of their squad. At this point I don't care if Jimmy Rings is the dunce of the SPARTAN II program, nor if we are really forced to make this into a "feminine chosen one" type of story.
I really, really just want them try to do Yayap - was it Yap-Yap? - on the Silent Cartographer.
Fire up the halo guys need to sterilize this universe cause I need to forget
Last of us. Game of thrones. The mandalorian. Good adaptations.
I liked the flood scenes, in my mind the slower infection makes sense, considering this was a spore infection which we have not seen before. This is almost even a pre feral stage infection.
Yes, This show needs a REBOOT.
Master chafe just be rubbing everyone the wrong way.
The flood did look like shit.
To be fair the introduction of the flood in the books made what ever it can in contact with be more
aggressive.
I agree with you though they dropped the ball.
How about the crime they committed with that forerunner door opening the way it did? Yikes
That awkward moment when the reviews critiquing the episodes are way better than what Paramount releases.
If the show not canon why are y’all so pressed about it n idk why y’all think Kai Is dead if chief survive a crash landing on a ship into the halo why can’t Kai survive crashing the ship y’all don’t make sense
This garbage is Halo in name only.
..
I'm rooting for the Flood 👍
The way they handling this whole show is ridiculous. But they know what they doing. Just giving us enough to keep us tuned
Well, the good news is that the show is canceled, and they can't hurt the plot of the original trilogy.
I love halo I quit this show 4 episodes ago so that it doesn't spoil the original halo for me. Could of been somthing great.
I think something in Season 1 set up Jimmy Rings to be able to fist Cortana.
However season one is so bad that im never going to re watch it to confirm.
FUCK YOU Silver Timeline writers
why all the hate comments on this show? yes i played the games read all the books and watch everything halo movie this show isnt as bad as yall make it seem
And dont compare to mass effect this is nothing like that. And comander shepard would beat master chief in a fight without all the ogmentations.
This shows master chief.
Boy, oh boy. Even Cortana looks like she's from Wish.
The flood makes them act like the infected people from resident evil 4
Maximus in Fallout spends more time in his Armor than Master Chief in season 2. Something is WRONG here... 😂
So many people crying smh if y’all really hate it why bother even watching still 😪
Exactly, I really fw this show. It’s different but it’s still good.
@@OnlyRoyaltii that’s what I’m saying. I’m not really gonna complain. Even knowing the halo lore it’s still something to watch and it’s different yk
Perez has the longest arc in this season. Her "character" went through the most change, cowardly-comms to spartan badass.
Badass is a stretch. She’s running scared the whole finale

That plot line with Kwan and The Protectors … I “THINK” that they were trying to say/trying to go for that The Flood and The Precursors are intertwined. One cannot exist without the other. That the Precursors were tying to protect the universe while the flood were trying to consume and assimilate. While in the game lore the Precursors went into a state of hibernation. Which turned them into dust. That dust became corrupted and they essentially held a grudge for the Forerunners…and they just want to consume and assimilate. The Precursors could assume any form, they were that powerful. And omnipotent.
Here they split the two together.
I agree with everything you said. Idk why people advocate for this bad show with a halo paintjob on it. It isnt halo. All we want is a good adaptation. We dont need it recreated frame by frame. Idk how they can do this to us
Your review episodes are so much more entertaining than the show itself
They found the flood in Onyx. Seriously? They found it on a shield world that was designed to protect its people from the flood. I don't know what the writers were on when writing this.
Look I hate this show too but that isn’t a great argument. There’s a Shield World in Halo Wars that was overtaken by the flood
Really sad to see Master chief in his armor for only 1st ep, ep 7 (really short not that long), and last ep 8 ... really bummed out Vannak died from Var Gatanai the other Arbiter would've been more fitting if it was Thel Vadam the Arbiter. I felt it was a fitting end to Vannak but the war felt like it hasn't been that long or even close to the middle would've prefer him to die during those moments in time. I really like this video hope for more other content.
The coin flip scene is more symbolism than him actually using the coin to decide. If you remember how they bring up how he guessed heads 11 times in a row which is almost statistically impossible basically what I’m saying is he already knew what choice he was gonna make he just flips the coin for the fuck of it
I did *not* see these scenes myself. They lost me on that weird planet after the Reach fiasco
well it’s heavily implied that the flood spore(super cell clusters) acts differently from we expected due to our more accustomed experience with the pod type infection form
Instead of the pure package of the flood super cells(spore) the pod form is the one that that shortly transforms the living and dead into combat forms
As it’s shown in the Monalisa graphic novel flood infection by contact with the cells themselves act differently from a fully formed combat form since it still can resurrect the recently deceased and needs intact bodies to turn into combat forms but it takes a bit longer for the complete transformation to finish , dismantled bodies are converted into bio mass, there are also some disturbing moments in the Monalisa story from the halo novels collection because one flood combat form was noticed to be attempting to smile and was trying to hide its combat claw folded behind its human arm, yes there was a proto grave mind in the process of formation.
What is truly AMAZING about this show is that it actually got made. What I mean is imagine being given the Star Wars of this Generation, a Golden Goose, a license to PRINT MONEY.....because that's what Halo is. Imagine being given all of that and still utterly failing. This show is like spiking the Ball at the finish line, like kicking the Soccer Ball over the net when the Goalie is lying prostate ten feet from the Goal, like two Heavyweight Boxers nocking each other out simultaneously with the first Punch in the first round of a Championship fight. Any half decent adaptation of the source material would have lead to Game of Thrones levels of ratings and marketing tie ins with action figures, T shirts and an infinite numbers of products. The Actors, Directors and Producers would have become household names with career opportunities falling from the sky. This show could have paid for Paramount's budget for the next DECADE !!! They had all that opportunity and they left it all on the table and for what? Girl bosses with plot armour, an Alienated Fan base, ruined careers Flood zombies ripped off from the last of us and most importantly ....no money.... The only saving grace of this show is that in five years no one will remember it at which point hopefully someone at least Simi talented with half a brain can reboot it..... Jesus Christ what a missed opportunity.
Thank you for saying the actors name he doesn’t deserve this to be called master chief
I still dont know how his visor got cracked open. They seemed to have thought it was important enough to put into the intro but no explanation in the show. Lol
