Halo, Echo & She-Hulk Were DESTROYED By This One Thing

[@disparutoo]

Halo Season 2 reviews near as the series draws close, and an old comment from Pablo showcased a very common attitude in Hollywood. Whether it be directors, writers or actors all of them think they are more important than the source material. Everything they make rather than focus on what the original author intended, with their values, are replaced by the values of the new show creators. Hidden behind a wall of language about how Important it is X is put into the series, it always hides self interest and their own personal taste. It's never done for the audience, always for the creators. You can know all about the writers just by watching what people in the show say, because they often ARE the writers. Ego drives them, self centered, self interested and likely unable to put themselves in another persons shoes. It's the only perspective they can write from, and all they care about. And until Hollywood can change the people involved, I don't see how this can change. The creators need humility to handle other peoples IP's, and we rarely see that from Hollywood actors or creators. But what do you think? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

I don't normally speak directly to creators but you are an inspiration to many of us, I just hope you're doing okay with the news that She-Hulk might not get renewed for season 2. I thought of you and was thinking we should set up a kickstarter or gofundme so that we can make season 2 happen. Also Velma season 2. Watching you guys utterly destroy these shows was more entertaining than the shows themselves will ever be. Echo getting a few more seasons would be icing on the cake, maybe they can destroy Luke Cage or Iron Fist or some other characters. Go all in on the cringe.

The whole point of characters having the helmet on and lack voice lines is so the player can project into that canvas. MC is the main protagonist, everything revolves around him in a deep way. But what MC believes is that he is an additional soldier just doing his job, as they are bigger things at stake. This is what Hollywood can't understand. By removing the helmet you are undercutting all the war machinery he is in, and the idea that anyone can be behind that helmet. It's weird that they removed it, even in the fanloved animation Red Vs Blue spartans mostly use helmets and in the fanloved games Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3, we never see MC face

Marvel did it with Iron Man when RDA was in the suit. - Films and TV series have been able to have actors emote while wearing full prosthetics, makeup and straight up face masks for decades. Mandalorian is actually a good example of this ironically but then even THAT decided to take the helmet off. - The added hilarity is how badly Halo S1 abused the helmet situation. MC takes off his helmet in situations where he should keep the damn thing on but puts it on when it is not needed. - Watching the Pink Hair Spartan get straight up face planted with no helmet by the OTHER Spartans actually wearing their helmets was pure comedic irony which I think is too complex for the hacks writing this garbage to grasp.

If you're gushing about yourself, no matter your position in the production - or what inspired the work (ideology, personal history, taste)... you've completely forgotten what it is your selling, and the product becomes just a vanity project, a vessel for your backstory that means nothing to anyone other than you.

It's bad enough they're screwing up echo, but that's their character to screw up. It pisses me off beyond words that they're screwing up the live-action version of Master Chief though.

[@eliasar5051]

At this point, Disparu´s "I´m an artist!" must be as iconic as "ThE MeSsAgE" from Drinker. At least I hear it in my head every time I read or hear about this terrible mindset.

@Gyrfalcon312 That one is very common and catchy too, yeah XD

You were on fire for this review! I can't tell you how much I enjoyed your discussion/dissection of ego. Great video!!

[@chillgoblin9103]

I knew halo was bad, but that part near 21:44... He knew about the spartan program as they got told that they were part of a program to create super soldier able to withstand a suit that would rip human in half and fight against the unbelievably strong covenant. Sure, they weren't told they had been kidnapped but they knew most of it. The scientist who made them couldn't stop cackling about her black ops program as she made them. So why did he have to a spartan program search in the show?

[@vwlssnvwls3262]

My daughter's name is Halo (she was released before the game). Some of our best memories together are playing Halo together when she was 9 to 11 years old. And I saved for months to buy an Xbox simply because of the Halo game. All that being said, I was already so jaded by Hollywood by the time that the series came out, I refused to get a Paramount account to watch it. The more I heard and saw about the series, the more I knew that was the right decision. It is sad, because the game means so much to me, and holds such a huge place in my heart and past, yet it is the only way I could keep those memories good.

[@SoRePeSi]

"She was released before the game" is the best line I've read this month

[@vwlssnvwls3262]

@@SoRePeSi I have been using that for years to clarify to people that she was not named after the game. In fact I had not heard of Halo (which was a Mac only project at the time) until 3 months after my daughter was born. :)

[@The_Primary_Axiom]

The halo actor fucked up so bad because he would’ve been respected and loved so much more if he kept his mask on. People don’t want a face to master chief. If this show was actually good, and this actor kept the mask on he would be legendary right now. But because we got to see his face and ass he’s toast.

[@Mulletmanalive]

The weirdest part of the helmets thing is that anyone who has done Masque training will tell you; they’re talking bollocks. It’s actually hard not to over act when your face is covered and the smallest gesture gets over interpreted by the watcher. And surely the copy reflexes ability suits Eho, who’s obliged to stare at your hands anyway, on account of being deaf…?

[@dizzyheads]

All the multiplayer spartans have more expressions than budget chief

Love how everyone Quote Tweeted that shit take from Pablo with the End of the intro for Doom 2016, where without even saying a word you feel and see every bit of anger and rage the Slayer has for what happened because of what Samuel Hayden did, for all the lives lost

[@AlphaAurora]

I love how easy some things are to fix. In Halo, fans would've accepted having Master Chief having his helmet on with us having to see the internal helmet shots to show Pablo's face. But he wouldn't have that. In Echo, they needed to commit to either having this all deaf, or not. Or have her actually kick ass without the leg (which there are many scenes they could've done)......or not. I love that she needs the prosthetic to do anything. All AFTER removing some of her comic abilities! What a shame.

[@davidgantenbein9362]

Imo it wouldn’t have been difficult to show her mastering situations despite the missing leg. It’s imo the fact that the fight scenes try to act as if she was a huge dude with two normal legs that ruin the action. Being deaf and missing a leg, they would have had to show her to be cunning and able to adapt fast, not to be a full frontal assault fight as if she was Captain America. But I guess „the message“ was more important than to show actual strong women.

[@AlphaAurora]

@@davidgantenbein9362 don't you love the irony? She has to be normal to be useful in those scenes. They can't go and give her anything unique.

Ego and Arrogance, as well as utter CONTEMPT for the audience.

[@Kiyoone]

Oh, I completely forgot about "Halo". Hope they end the suffering of real fans by canceling it after this egoistically flops.

[@ptonpc]

Hopefully it gets an automatic six season, running at over 300 million a pop, that flops and drives the studio bankrupt.

[@Awakeandalive1]

Even worse, they changed the tribal origin of Echo from Blackfeet to Choctaw because they felt that the Blackfeet tribe's aesthetics were BORING and DERIVATIVE. Imagine that, being so up your own tuchus that you think "representation" is important...but only when YOU think it looks cool enough.

[@breevans5219]

You know since movies and TV are an audio/visual media, if a character is wearing a mask you can interpret their emotions through their tone of voice, the context of the situation, the framing of the filming and the musical cues (extremely important when setting the tone). I swear Hollywood acts like they're work is first to do anything so it's impossible not to do things their way....when there's hundreds and thousands of examples to work from.

[@theauntofdragons]

Imagine if we paid Hollywood actors like servers. You get paid based off your service. If you do a poor job, you get nothing.

4:53 I noticed that there is some sort of timer ticking down on the first article you were reading. It has a big red "Go" button next to it. Is the site forcing you to pay for a premium subscription once your free viewing time, indicated by the timer, runs out or something?

[@MajorSmurf]

So if we have to see a face to understand a character... why can we all understand and connect with say the muppets? Most of them don't have complex facial expressions yet I can understand Kermit just sitting on a shelf far more then any current day actor. What about anime, cartoon or CG characters? A lot of them don't even have faces to emote with. Yet you'll understand most of their emotions mostly from expressive voice acting. So Mr John Halo sit down, put the helmet on and use that little something called body and voice acting.

[@torporvasflam8670]

Disparu, you're on fire with these vids. Great work, man.

[@victorcates9330]

They thought particularly expensive bouts of self-gratification would pass as entertainment. She-hulk in particular was getting off on how clever they thought they were being. Sure other shows are meta, but they struggle not to come across as smug and self-congratulatory.

[@Kuria_zhaints]

the ironic on this is "Y'ALL IN THIS FOR MONEY" the more specific the target audience the less money they get because frankly, no one cares if the stories is good or not. alienating a good chunk of audience is a sure way to lose a fuckton of profits

[@Gantiz]

Rarely do people show up to see an actor, great actors drive people to theater because of the characters that they are able to portray. Dredd is a great example of understanding The Story and characters, part of the reason why is it great is because Urban understood the character and put that over his ego. Compare that to the awful Stallone movie where so long and sister that people see his face. That's why Dredd is great, keeping up the character first

[@KaoticKwan]

I hope we leave this “woke” Hollywood era soon. There’s nothing wrong with inclusivity but sacrificing a good story to push your views is dumb. If marvel wants to improve their projects they don’t need to take more time on them they need to hire directors and writers that actually care about making a good story. Not a mediocre or bad story with a political message

[@Punky_Brewski]

What a lot of these newer film makers don't understand is that unlimited creative freedom is not a great thing. Creativity comes from limitation. If you have a limited budget and a simple idea you need to get more creative to make it work or even get it made.

[@nsob8897]

I wonder if these people will ever have the balls to be pissed off at the people who are using them right now, once they figure out that it happened. Or will they just find somebody who is a "racist" or a "misogynist" on whom to take out their anger. I think I know the answer. Ignorance is bliss when you can afford to be wrong all of the time.

At 6:09, similar to Rise of Skywalker where Rey says "I'm all of the Jedi.".

I was perfectly fine with master chief taking his helmet off. He’s a human and ya know probably wants to eat and shower and maybe not wear his power suit 24/7. However in combat situations there is no way in hell a spartan is going to head into combat or a potential combat situation without his helmet
