Re: Very interesting
Posted By: EndbringerDate: 8/9/06 5:44 p.m.

In Response To: Re: Very interesting (Jillybean)

: Or the beliefs of some - I liked in the Conversations booklet where it says
: that the Elites are curious as to why humans have not been added.

And thats exactly the kind of depth to the Covanent I would like to see. That as a society they are motivated by their beliefs and leaders (though 'manipulated' may be a more accurate word), but as individuals they can think for themselves and question why exactly they are doing this. But when it comes down to who lives its us or them, and I prefer us. One of the movies I've seen that has done this masterfully was We Were Soldiers. The movie showed the Vietcong with more depth than just an enemie we fight, but you were still glad our guys survived and won the battle.

: Curiously enough, we've seen in the HGN that the government is, to a certain
: extent, manipulating the view of the war and we know that the Covenant
: government has done something similar. I wonder if Bungie are preparing us
: for something a bit more political and even sided in the movie?

Wouldn't surprise me, and I would welcome it as long as it is a bit more subtle than Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.
