Slashdot Mirror
Halo Movie Slated For 2007
Master Chief is slated to come to the silver screen...in 2007. Gamespot reports that Fox and Microsoft have come to an agreement. From the article: "However, negotiating a movie deal proved as challenging as taking down a Covenant dropship, as several studios surprisingly passed on producing a Halo movie. The reason: film studios may be used to kowtowing to A-list actors' demands, but don't typically cave in to requests from non-Hollywood players. Initial reports saw the software giant asking for $10 million against 15 percent of the gross (whichever is higher), a below-the-line budget of $75 million (budget before hiring actors and crew), near-immediate production of the movie, and a large say in the creative development of the movie." Update: 08/23 20:59 GMT by Z : Fixed time travel problem.
So now the Covenant and Flood are time traveling?

What the hell do slashdot editors do? Do they have a button that says randomly select worst article and click it? Not only is this old news (it's been listed on IMDB for months as 2007), it's incredibly pointless. I'm a great fan of Halo, and I'm glad they're taking their time with this movie.
I'm also a fan of slashdot and it's a shame to see stupid editors on the team.
I'll subscribe to Slashdot when I see a month without a dupe, a typo, or an article the "editors" didn't read.
Troll? It was a joke for fuck's sake!
:-) give you a clue?
There weren't any posts when I made it either, it's not my fault if ahlf a dozen other people decided to make similar (but inferior, in my opinion) jokes at the same time.

Now this really is a Troll, or Flamebait, or just an angry person at keyboard.
