PLEASE, you, and EVERYONE, if you haven't already, embrace the One True Only God YHWH Jehovah, Only One Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son and Lord and Savior of our souls and the Only One Holy Spirit. God is good. God is love. Jesus is Lord. Jesus IS coming. Your soul depends on it! I have seen God act in my life. He saved my soul, changed my heart, changed my mind, helped people through me, took care of people in my life, people I hurt before I found God. God is the only reason I was able to reconcile with my dad before he died. God worked through Jesus Christ to save our souls. Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins. Believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and that God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Be baptized in The Holy Spirit, and if He wills, water as well. Repent of your sins, accept God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit into your heart, that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ, that all who believe on Him should not perish but have everlasting life. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father Jehovah God but through Him. Not long after I got saved I prayed to God for help understanding the Holy Bible, and that same day someone knocked on my door asking me if I wanted to understand the Bible. The Holy Bible says, "love thy enemy", "turn the other cheek", "If your enemy is hungry, feed him", "if he is thirsty, give him a drink", "pray for those who persecute you", "do not repay evil for evil". LORD willing, all humans may commit sin of almost every kind (gay, straight), and that's wrong, and all humans sin, as God tells us through the The Holy Bible, "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus." The Holy Bible also says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."

The core problem with the show is that both in the game and in the books John was an extremely obvious stoic, partly due to his augmentations making him similar to a eunuch, guy rarely spoke unless necessary regardless of armor being on or off. I get that they want to use the "alternate universe" concept to justify major differences but then it's no longer Halo anyway, it's a Halo skin wrapped around a concept that is fundamentally different.

@D3cepti0ns 5 ай бұрын

They should have never ever took his helmet off. It would have been so much better and they could just hire some cosplayer, like darth vadar was done, and then it would be so much cheaper without a main actor and probably way less takes necessary. Just do it like all the cutscenes and make him alone with cortana for most of it, with some mysteries and shit. Barely any dialogue, barely any actors and it would have been a thousand times better. They not only ruined the franchise, they spent way more money than they even needed to.

@@dillydrawsthey shoulda compromised between the two though and satisfy both game fans and book fans. Keep his helmet on most of the time. Even in the books they “say” he takes his helmet off but I haven’t had anybody be able to show me his canonical picture. An imaginary image you have in your mind of chief is much different than putting an actor on screen and saying “this is chief.” but if you have a link to an 343 or old bungie approved image that looks like the actor we have now im willing to to eat my words. In game all we’ve seen was him fully as a kid but that doesn’t really show how he looks now. As an adult we’ve seen his eyes and pale skin. Pale from being underneath the armor long amounts of time. Not a California tan. Now after all that said i’m starting to like the show more, and I’m coping with hope for season 3 finally taking off.

At least in the first couple of Halo books, there's no mention of Spartans not getting funerals, well, not directly. They do state that officially Spartans never die, even if their death is 100% confirmed, they are listed as missing in action, for propaganda reasons. So I'd imagine they would either get a very private funeral, or a quiet disposal without any ceremony, but beyond the official listing, nothing is mentioned.

The number of changes made between seasons is baffling. Chief un-dies, Kwan Ha's story is deleted along with Madrigal, Makee un-dies, Cortana's entire purpose changes... When the show was greenlit, they were given 20 episodes that they split into 2 10-episode seasons. (which they later condensed further for budget reasons) My point is that they knew that there would be a season 2, so it's not like they were surprised with a sudden renewal. So why on Earth did they write the show so inconsistently?!

So the whole 'we don't bury Spartans' is an absolute misunderstanding of 'Spartans never die'. The UNSC believed reporting Spartan KIAs would hurt the morale of the Navy, so they only ever reported them as Missing In Action. Which is incredibly tragic. It's repeated in the books a couple of times with one line literally being, "Spartans never die, they just go Missing in Action". This led to Cheif holding in a lot of his feelings regarding the death of his fellow Spartans. The show is just taking a cool line and making it stupid.

Numerous sources state that they refused to take on any previous bungie staff for Halo 4 and 5, the culture encouraged needlessly hostile attitudes towards the previous games and developers, and they obviously thought they knew better than Bungie prior the overwhelmingly poor reception to Halo 5. So much so that they needed to literally hire an ex-Bungie lead help make Infinite when they realised they were circling the drain. This project was greenlit back in the days before they thought they'd fuck Halo up, hit serious problems because of their arrogance which meant millions had to be spent in reshoots over years and years, and now we're seeing "Star Wars sequel trilogy" style back-peddling on their original vision with very mixed results.

it's jsut so mind blowing to me that they thought " lets make a show involving a character who notoriously doesnt reveal his face..... and make him just visbile...the entire time.... this game where the main plot is a bad ass dude in near indestructable armor fights people. lets just get rid of the armor.

Make it a series with that level of CGI and that attentive to lore, or don't make it. If it's not financially viable to do that way.. DON'T make it. Worst thing you can do is take a generic sci-fi show with 'meh' level FX and slap a Halo paint job on it.

I thought season 2 was pretty great, obviously as something disconnected from the games. Seeing Chief go to a bar to try and talk to someone pretending to be Cortana felt very 'Blade Runner' and it's an interesting perspective on these unsociable spartans and how they actually yearn for emotional connection. Was far better than season 1, this was actually about war and how that affects people, whilst idk what S1 was about.

@OhAUM 5 ай бұрын

They should have had them walk through, everything is normal and they plant the spike. Then they come back outside and everything has flood tentacles on it and they could have had a 5 minute one take of them running back just blasting flood infected people left and right. They make it back to the ship but an infected flood pulls one of them back out.

Perez, a marine, magically becomes a Spartan III.. the Spartans who were orphan children chosen specifically for being orphaned by the war. Though to kinda give the show credit they did depict the Spartan III's as they originally were. If you only played Reach here's some history on the III's: the Spartan III's were originally introduced as suicide soldiers who would attack in large numbers. They didn't even have mjolnir armour like in Reach, they had unshielded Semi-Powered Infiltration armour.

57:47 You have no idea, they had two routes to take and they picked neither. In the book Chief has a mission which is destroying vital UNSC infrastructure before the Covenant can get to it. Basic military shit pretty much. In the game he just hangs out on the Pillar of Autumn until Cpt. Keyes tucks him into his cryopod with his fav blankie for sleepy time while Reach is getting glassed and Noble team is dying(except Jun cuz dying is gay). That second one would've made a better season than whatever this shit was.

The flood reveal was 1) far to random and does not match up with the timeline of intial infection of the forerunners, it took way way longer to spread as a spore. 2) it was far to obvious what was happening and felt very forced. 3) whole episode should have focused solely on the flood out break. 4) wouldve been better to stay true to roots of the the og. Have sgt johnson discover the area and lose contact, with chief going in to figure out what happened. Honestly when the black out scene wouldve been way better if was Flood reveal.
